The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between New Jersey Tea and Formoterol 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.

Interaction report

New Jersey Tea and Formoterol

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 Formoterol and New Jersey Tea 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 New Jersey Tea at all — not against Formoterol, 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 to actually watch for

What Formoterol’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves New Jersey Tea. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Formoterol’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. 7 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Low potassium Worth acting on
High blood sugar Worth acting on
Wheezing Worth acting on
Chest pain Worth acting on
Raised blood pressure Worth acting on
A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
Hives Worth acting on
Tremor or shakiness
Dry mouth
A fast or pounding heartbeat

Showing the 10 most notable of 22 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 Formoterol. Read the label on DailyMed › New Jersey Tea’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no New Jersey Tea side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that New Jersey Tea has no side effects.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Formoterol

This page covers New Jersey Tea only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Formoterol page lists 103 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: 1,3-dmaa (moderate), Acacia Rigidula (moderate), Active Hexose Correlated Compound (ahcc) (moderate), Adrafinil (moderate) and African Wild Potato (moderate).

By severity: 84 moderate · 19 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Formoterol page

“Formoterol (Foradil, Perforomist) is the long-acting half of many asthma and COPD inhalers, keeping airways open for hours, and its supplement list is calmer than its length suggests. None of the 103 ingredients on file is rated major.”

About New Jersey Tea

What is New Jersey Tea?

Sore throat and mouth/gum irritation
Caffeine-free herbal tea
Cough and respiratory complaints
Traditional support for swollen lymph nodes
Mild astringent for minor bleeding

New Jersey Tea is a North American shrub whose leaves were historically brewed as a caffeine-free tea and used in folk medicine for sore throats and other complaints. There is very little modern scientific research to confirm any health benefit, so it should be viewed as a traditional remedy rather than a proven treatment. If you want to try it, talk with a pharmacist or doctor first, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Ceanothus americanus · Rhamnaceae · Leaves and root (and root bark) · Tea (dried leaves), tincture, dried root preparations

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

About Formoterol Oral Inhalation

What Is Formoterol Oral Inhalation Used For?

Brand names: Foradil Aerolizer, Atimos Modulite, Oxis Turbohaler, Perforomist, Foradil Certihaler

Formoterol fumarate inhalation solution is used for the long-term maintenance treatment of airway narrowing (bronchoconstriction) in adults with COPD, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It is taken twice daily — morning and evening — as a regular, ongoing treatment.

Important limits: This medication is not for relieving sudden COPD flare-ups or breathlessness in the moment, and it is not approved to treat asthma. A separate short-acting inhaler should always be on hand for sudden symptoms.
