Neem and Nebivolol Hydrochloride, Valsartan

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

CYTOCHROME P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) SUBSTRATES

Why this applies to Nebivolol Hydrochloride, Valsartan

Nebivolol Hydrochloride, Valsartan falls under CYTOCHROME P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) SUBSTRATES — the group Neem interacts with.

Theoretically, neem leaf extract might increase the levels and clinical effects of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that neem leaf methanol extract inhibits CYP2C9 enzymes. So far, this reaction has not been reported in humans.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the short version with Byvalson, which combines nebivolol (a beta blocker) and valsartan (a blood pressure medicine). In lab tests, neem leaf extract seems to slow down a liver enzyme called CYP2C9. Valsartan is partly handled by that pathway, so in theory neem could let a bit more of it linger in your body. If that happened, you might notice stronger blood pressure lowering, with things like dizziness, lightheadedness, or feeling unusually tired.

I want to be honest about how soft this is. The concern comes only from test-tube work, and it has never actually been reported in people. So I wouldn't lose sleep over it, but if you take neem regularly, mention it to your pharmacist or doctor and keep an eye on your blood pressure.

About Neem

What is Neem?

Neem
  • Skin conditions
  • Dental and gum health
  • Antimicrobial and antiparasitic
  • Digestive upset
  • Blood sugar support
  • Insect repellent/pesticide

Neem is a tree from India used for centuries in traditional medicine, especially for skin, dental, and antimicrobial purposes. Some small studies are promising for oral health and skin, but high-quality human evidence is limited for most uses. Neem oil and seed extracts can be toxic if swallowed, especially in children, so use with caution and talk to your pharmacist or doctor first.
