Olive + Ixazomib Citrate

Ixazomib Citrate brand name: Ninlaro.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Olive and Ixazomib Citrate 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Ixazomib Citrate states a food rule worth keeping to.

Olive and Ixazomib Citrate

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 Ixazomib Citrate and Olive 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 Olive at all — not against Ixazomib Citrate, 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 Olive Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Ixazomib Citrate. It is the side-effect record for Olive on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Olive, this list is the first place to look.

  • Acne Additional detail

    “Orally, one patient in one clinical trial reported bad skin and acne after using olive leaf extract.”

    Olive · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in acne.

  • Stomach upset Additional detail

    “Orally, olive fruit is well tolerated when used in typical food amounts. Olive leaf extract seems to be well tolerated.

    Most Common Adverse Effects:

    Orally: Headache and stomach discomfort.”

    Olive · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in cluster headache.

  • Headache Additional detail

    “Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported headache after using olive leaf extract.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Olive — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Ixazomib Citrate’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Ixazomib Citrate column appears here.

How to take them

Some Ixazomib Citrate Products Have a Food Rule — Olive Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Ixazomib Citrate says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Olive included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Ixazomib Citrate on its own and move Olive to a meal later in the day.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Ixazomib Citrate 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 ) Dose should be taken at least one hour before or at least two hours after food.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Ixazomib Citrate — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. See the Ixazomib Citrate drug page ›

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 Ixazomib Citrate page

“Anyone taking ixazomib citrate (Ninlaro) for multiple myeloma should give this list real weight, because a supplement that shifts this chemotherapy's blood level can shift how well it works against the cancer. Of the 168 ingredients on file, 121 act on CYP3A4, the enzyme that clears ixazomib.”

About Olive

What is Olive?

Olive
  • Heart health
  • High blood pressure
  • High cholesterol
  • Antioxidant support
  • Antimicrobial
  • General wellness

Olive comes from the same tree that gives us olives and olive oil, and its leaf and fruit contain antioxidant compounds like oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol. Olive oil as part of a Mediterranean diet is well-studied for heart health, but supplements made from olive leaf or fruit extract have less solid evidence. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting any supplement, especially if you have health conditions or take medications.

Olea europaea · Oleaceae · Leaves and fruit (including olive fruit pulp and olive oil) · Capsules, tablets, liquid extracts, teas, olive leaf extract, olive oil

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

Olive: dosing

There is no official standard dose for olive leaf or olive fruit supplements. Products vary widely in their strength and in how much oleuropein or hydroxytyrosol they contain.The best advice is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the recommended amount.

Taking Olive and Ixazomib Citrate Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Olive with Ixazomib Citrate?
We do not list a known interaction between Olive and Ixazomib Citrate. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Should I take Olive and Ixazomib Citrate at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Ixazomib Citrate says to take it on an empty stomach, and supplements are usually taken with a meal — so taking them together at breakfast is the easy mistake. Where that applies, keep Ixazomib Citrate on its own and move Olive to a meal later in the day. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient, so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
Does Ixazomib Citrate interact with any supplements?
Yes. Ixazomib Citrate has documented interactions with 168 supplements in our database — Olive is not one of them. The Ixazomib Citrate interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
