Drug & supplement interaction

Mountain Ash + Thiothixene

Thiothixene brand name: Navane.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Mountain Ash and Thiothixene in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Mountain Ash and Thiothixene

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Thiothixene and Mountain Ash in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Thiothixene

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Thiothixene is filed under 4 classifications — including antipsychotic drugs, photosensitizing drugs, seizure threshold lowering drugs. Mountain Ash has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being nephrotoxic drugs (moderate) — and none of Thiothixene’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Mountain Ash and Thiothixene May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

  • Nausea / Diarrhea / Vomiting reported in 6.0% of FDA reports for Thiothixene Additional detail

    Thiothixene

    Listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Thiothixene, and in voluntary FDA adverse-event reports. Read the label on DailyMed ›

Reported for Mountain Ash but not commonly for Thiothixene: kidney problems.

Effects for Thiothixene come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Mountain Ash come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 218 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Thiothixene that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Thiothixene

This page covers Mountain Ash only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Thiothixene page lists 51 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Indian Snakeroot (major), Rauvolfia Vomitoria (major), Alfalfa (moderate) and Angelica Archangelica (moderate).

By severity: 3 major · 37 moderate · 11 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Thiothixene page

“Activated charcoal is the entry to know first with thiothixene (Navane). It can bind the drug in the gut and carry it out of the body, and for an antipsychotic controlling psychotic symptoms, a dose that quietly disappears risks relapse.”

About Mountain Ash

What is Mountain Ash?

Mountain Ash
  • Sore throat and hoarseness
  • Digestive upset and constipation
  • Cough and chest congestion
  • Mild urinary complaints
  • Source of vitamin C in folk medicine

Mountain ash (rowan) is a northern-hemisphere tree whose bright red berries are traditionally cooked into jams, syrups, and teas. There is very little reliable human research to support any medical use, and raw berries contain compounds that can cause stomach upset, so cooking is important. If you want to try it, talk with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Sorbus aucuparia · Rosaceae · Fruit (berries), and sometimes the flowers and bark · Cooked berries, jam or jelly, juice, syrup, tea, tincture

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Mountain Ash is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Mountain Ash record says about it on its own.

Mountain Ash: dosing

There is no established or standardized medicinal dose for mountain ash. It is most often consumed as cooked berries, jam, syrup, or tea rather than as a measured supplement.If you use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed the suggested amount.

Thiothixene is filed under 4 classifications, and Mountain Ash has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Thiothixene's classifications are among them.
