Myrcia and Doxepin

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 Doxepin and Myrcia 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 Doxepin

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Doxepin is filed under 10 classifications — including tricyclic antidepressants (tcas), antidepressant drugs, qt interval-prolonging drugs. Myrcia has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being levothyroxine (synthroid, others) (moderate) — and none of Doxepin’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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Doxepin page

“Doxepin is a sedating tricyclic prescribed for depression, anxiety, and often sleep itself, and the people taking it tend to shop the same shelf where the trouble sits. Of the 186 supplements on file, 78 deepen its drowsiness, with alcohol (beer and wine carry major, well-documented ratings) and kava the clearest examples, and I would…”

About Myrcia

What is Myrcia?

  • Blood sugar support
  • Digestive upset and diarrhea
  • Mild urinary complaints
  • Astringent for the gut
  • Traditional 'pedra-hume-caa' folk remedy

Myrcia is a group of tropical shrubs and trees in the myrtle family, used in South American folk medicine—often as a tea—mainly for blood sugar and digestive complaints. Human evidence is very limited, so it should not replace proven treatments. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you have diabetes or take other medicines.

Myrtaceae · Leaves (and sometimes bark) · Tea, dried leaf, capsules, liquid extracts

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

Myrcia: dosing

There is no established standardized dose for Myrcia. Traditional use is usually as a tea made from the dried leaves, but amounts vary widely and are not backed by clinical research.If you choose to try a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

From our Myrcia monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.
