Myrcia + Filgrastim
Filgrastim brand name: Neupogen.
We found no known interaction between Myrcia and Filgrastim 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.
Myrcia and Filgrastim
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 Filgrastim 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.
Myrcia safety at a glance
Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.
Why No Interaction Is Listed for Filgrastim
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Filgrastim is filed under a single classification — oral drugs. Myrcia has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being levothyroxine (synthroid, others) (moderate) — and none of Filgrastim’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.
Myrcia Does Interact With Other Medications
Myrcia has 3 moderate known drug interactions in our database — Filgrastim isn’t one of them. If you take anything else, check it against the full list below.

By severity: 1 major · 7 moderate · 9 minor.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Filgrastim page
“Filgrastim (Neupogen) is an injection that raises white blood cell counts, most often to protect people on chemotherapy from infection, and the 17 supplements on file with it deserve real attention rather than a shrug. Nearly all are fibers, gums, and mucilage-rich herbs that can blunt how medicines taken by mouth get absorbed.”

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.

About Filgrastim Injection
What Is Filgrastim Injection Used For?
Brand name: Neupogen
Filgrastim injection (available as Neupogen, Nivestym, and Releuko) is used to lower the risk of serious infection in people whose white blood cell counts drop dangerously low. This can happen during chemotherapy for cancer, during treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), or after bone marrow transplantation. It is also used to help move stem cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream so they can be collected for transplantation.
In addition, filgrastim is used long-term to reduce infections in people with severe chronic neutropenia — including congenital neutropenia, cyclic neutropenia, and idiopathic neutropenia. Neupogen is also indicated to increase survival in patients acutely exposed to radiation doses that suppress the bone marrow (Hematopoietic Syndrome of Acute Radiation Syndrome).
Most-Reported Side Effects for Filgrastim
From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (41,970 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.
