Mouse-ear Hawkweed and Galantamine Extended Release

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 Galantamine Extended Release and Mouse-ear Hawkweed 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.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Mouse-ear Hawkweed at all — not against Galantamine Extended Release, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

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.

What Galantamine Extended Release’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Mouse-ear Hawkweed. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Galantamine Extended Release’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 4 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Memory problems Worth acting on mentioned in 20.8% of FDA reports for Galantamine Extended Release
  • A slow heartbeat Worth acting on
  • Fainting Worth acting on
  • Low mood Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 17 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Galantamine Extended Release. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 3,188 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Galantamine Extended Release that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Mouse-ear Hawkweed’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Mouse-ear Hawkweed side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Mouse-ear Hawkweed has no side effects.

How to take them

Some Galantamine Extended Release Products Have a Food Rule — Mouse-ear Hawkweed Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Galantamine Extended Release says to take it with food. If you take Mouse-ear Hawkweed on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Galantamine Extended Release with a meal where the label says to.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Galantamine Extended Release products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

( 2.1 ) Take with food; ensure adequate fluid intake during treatment (2.1) Hepatic impairment: should not exceed 16 mg/day for moderate hepatic impairment; do not use in patients with severe hepatic impairment ( 2.2 ) Renal impairment: should not exceed 16 mg/day for creatinine clearance 9 to 59 mL/min; do not use in patients with creatinine clearance less than 9 mL/min.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Galantamine Extended Release — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Galantamine Extended Release page

“Galantamine ER (Razadyne ER) treats Alzheimer's dementia by boosting acetylcholine, and because the people taking it are usually older adults already juggling several medicines, its 170 documented supplement interactions warrant genuine care rather than a shrug. Three carry a major rating, and those are the ones to learn first: grapefr…”

About Mouse-ear Hawkweed

What is Mouse-ear Hawkweed?

Mouse-ear Hawkweed
  • Urinary tract and kidney support
  • Mild diuretic (increasing urine flow)
  • Digestive complaints
  • Coughs and respiratory irritation
  • Wound and skin care (astringent)

Mouse-ear hawkweed is a traditional European herb used mainly for urinary, digestive, and respiratory complaints, but modern human studies are very limited. Because good safety and effectiveness data are lacking, it is best used cautiously and avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, especially if you have a health condition or take medications.

Pilosella officinarum · Asteraceae · Aerial parts (leaves, flowers, and stems), usually the whole flowering herb · Tea (infusion), liquid extract or tincture, dried herb, capsules

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

Mouse-ear Hawkweed: dosing

There is no established standard dose for mouse-ear hawkweed. Traditional use has involved teas made from the dried herb and liquid extracts or tinctures, but reliable, science-based dosing is not available.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed the suggested amount.
