Drug & supplement interaction

Oregano + Tazemetostat Hydrobromide

Tazemetostat Hydrobromide brand name: Tazverik.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide 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 two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide

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 Tazemetostat Hydrobromide and Oregano 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.

Oregano safety at a glance

Oregano overall Use caution Safe as a food, but concentrated oregano oil supplements are stronger and less studied.
Pregnancy Possibly Unsafe When used orally in medicinal amounts. Oregano is thought to have abortifacient and emmenagogue effects. Read the full pregnancy detail
Breastfeeding Use caution Stick to normal food amounts; safety of supplements while breastfeeding is not established.

Pregnancy & breastfeeding ratings are from Natural Medicines (Therapeutic Research Center) — the full detail is in the Special populations card below. Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

Pharmacist analysis

Oregano (and oregano oil) supplements are generally considered safe and there is no indication that there is an interaction between the drug highlighted in this interaction monograph and oregano.

However, as with all supplements, it is important to talk to your doctor before starting anything new, so you can be appropriately monitored.

In terms of drug interactions that have been reported with oregano, below are some examples.

Anticoagulant; Antiplatelet Drugs

Anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs work by slowing down or preventing blood clotting. While they are essential medications for individuals with certain conditions, they come with an increased risk of bleeding.

Some studies have reported that oregano oil may also increase the risk of bleeding, as it contains compounds that have antithrombin activity and can inhibit platelet aggregation.

Therefore, taking oregano oil along with anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs may increase the risk of bleeding, bruising, and other adverse effects.

Anti-Diabetic Drugs

Several studies suggest that oregano supplements may help lower blood glucose (i.e., sugar) levels. In vitro and animal research has shown that oregano extracts might stimulate glucose uptake and reduce blood glucose levels.

Therefore, based on the available evidence, combining oregano oil with antidiabetic drugs could potentially cause blood sugar levels to drop too low, leading to hypoglycemia.

However, it is important to note that studies reporting that oregano can reduce blood glucose levels have not reported it causing hypoglycemia.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Tazemetostat Hydrobromide

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Tazemetostat Hydrobromide is filed under 2 classifications — cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Oregano has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate) and antidiabetes drugs (moderate) — and none of Tazemetostat Hydrobromide’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.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

About Oregano

What is Oregano?

Oregano
  • Digestive upset
  • Respiratory and cold symptoms
  • Antimicrobial support
  • Intestinal parasites
  • Skin and fungal concerns

Oregano is a common Mediterranean cooking herb that is also sold as a concentrated oil or supplement, often standardized for a compound called carvacrol. While lab studies suggest it may have antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, strong human evidence for treating any specific health condition is limited. Used as a food, oregano is very safe; concentrated oregano oil supplements should be used cautiously and discussed with your pharmacist or doctor.

Origanum vulgare · Lamiaceae · Leaves and essential oil · Culinary herb, tea, capsules, softgels, liquid oil (oil of oregano), tinctures

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

Oregano: dosing

There is no official, well-established dose for oregano supplements. Products vary widely in strength and in how much carvacrol they contain, so it is hard to compare them.The safest approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the recommended amount.

About Tazemetostat

What Is Tazemetostat Used For?

Brand name: Tazverik

Tazverik (tazemetostat) tablets are used to treat adults and patients aged 16 and older with metastatic or locally advanced epithelioid sarcoma (a rare soft-tissue cancer) that cannot be completely removed by surgery.

Tazverik is also used in adults with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma — meaning the lymphoma has come back or stopped responding to treatment — either when the tumor carries a specific EZH2 gene mutation (confirmed by an FDA-approved test) after at least two prior treatments, or when there are no other satisfactory treatment options. Both uses were approved based on response rates, and continued approval may depend on results from ongoing confirmatory studies.

Taking Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Oregano with Tazemetostat Hydrobromide?
We do not list a known interaction between Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide. 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.
Do Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 2 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.
How was the Oregano and Tazemetostat Hydrobromide combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Tazemetostat Hydrobromide is filed under 2 classifications, and Oregano has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — none of Tazemetostat Hydrobromide's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Oregano interact with any other medications?
Yes. Oregano has 208 documented drug interactions in our database — Tazemetostat Hydrobromide is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Tazemetostat Hydrobromide interact with any supplements?
Yes. Tazemetostat Hydrobromide has documented interactions with 138 supplements in our database — Oregano is not one of them. The Tazemetostat Hydrobromide interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
