Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) + Ticlopidine
Ticlopidine brand names: Ticlid, Ticlopidine.
We found no known interaction between Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) and Ticlopidine 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.
Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) and Ticlopidine
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 Ticlopidine and Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) 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 Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) at all — not against Ticlopidine, 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 Ticlopidine Is Prescribed For, and What Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) Has Been Studied For
These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Ticlopidine is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.
Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) has been studied for:
-
Stroke studied, not established Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows
Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) for stroke
It is unclear if oral ornithine ketoglutarate is beneficial in patients with a recent stroke.
Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Ticlopidine on your own; if you are taking Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.
See Every Supplement That Interacts With Ticlopidine
This page covers Ornithine Ketoglutarate (okg) only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Ticlopidine page lists 221 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.
The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Danshen (major), Piracetam (major), Aconite (moderate) and Allspice (moderate).
By severity: 3 major · 193 moderate · 25 minor.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Ticlopidine page
“Ticlopidine (Ticlid) keeps platelets from clumping to prevent clots, so it already raises bleeding risk on its own, and over 200 of the 221 supplements flagged for it push in that same direction. That stacking effect deserves genuine respect from anyone taking this drug.”

About Ticlopidine
What Is Ticlopidine Used For?
Brand names: Ticlid, Ticlopidine

Ticlopidine is used to reduce the risk of stroke in people who have had a stroke or have had warning signs of a stroke and who cannot be treated with aspirin.

It works by preventing platelets (a type of blood cell) from collecting and forming clots.
