Ox-eye Daisy and Verteporfin

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 Verteporfin and Ox-eye Daisy 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 Ox-eye Daisy at all — not against Verteporfin, 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 Verteporfin’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Ox-eye Daisy. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Verteporfin’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. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Fainting Worth acting on
  • An irregular heartbeat Worth acting on
  • Chest pain Worth acting on
  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • Raised blood pressure Worth acting on
  • Shortness of breath Worth acting on
  • Hives Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Verteporfin. Read the label on DailyMed › Ox-eye Daisy’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Ox-eye Daisy side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Ox-eye Daisy has no side effects.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Coffee Charcoal (moderate), Dimethylsulfoxide (dmso) (moderate), European Mandrake (moderate) and Glucomannan (moderate).

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Verteporfin page

“Verteporfin (Visudyne) is infused into a vein, then activated with a laser to seal leaky blood vessels in the eye, and one entry here warrants real caution. Activated charcoal, the only major-rated interaction of the 18 on file, can strip many drugs from the body even when they were never swallowed, so I would not use it around a treat…”

About Ox-eye Daisy

What is Ox-eye Daisy?

  • Cough and bronchial complaints
  • Digestive upset
  • Wound healing and skin conditions
  • Mild spasms or cramps
  • As a traditional tonic

Ox-eye daisy is a traditional European folk remedy used for coughs, digestion, and minor skin problems, but there is very little modern scientific research to confirm any of these uses. Because it belongs to the same family as ragweed, it may trigger allergic reactions, and its safety has not been well studied. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Leucanthemum vulgare · Asteraceae · Flowers, leaves, and aerial parts (whole flowering plant) · Tea, dried herb, tincture, topical preparations (lotions, washes)

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

Ox-eye Daisy: dosing

There is no established or standardized dose for ox-eye daisy. Traditional use involved brewing the dried flowers or leaves as a tea, but reliable, research-based dosing guidelines do not exist.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

About Verteporfin Injection

What Is Verteporfin Injection Used For?

Brand name: Visudyne

Visudyne (verteporfin for injection) is used to treat a specific type of abnormal blood vessel growth under the retina called predominantly classic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) — new, leaky vessels that form beneath the central part of the retina. It is approved for three underlying causes of this condition.

Visudyne is indicated when CNV is caused by age-related macular degeneration (AMD), pathologic myopia (severe nearsightedness that damages the eye), or presumed ocular histoplasmosis (an eye condition linked to a fungal infection). It is not indicated for the predominantly occult (hidden) form of CNV, where there is not enough evidence to support its use.
