Interaction report

Pata De Vaca and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir

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 Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir and Pata De Vaca 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.

What Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir’s Own FDA Label Lists

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir. Read the label on DailyMed › Pata De Vaca’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Pata De Vaca side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Pata De Vaca has no side effects.

How to take them

Some Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir Products Have a Food Rule — Pata De Vaca Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir says to take it with food. If you take Pata De Vaca on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir with a meal where the label says to.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir 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 ) Recommended dosage: One tablet (400 mg of sofosbuvir, 100 mg of velpatasvir, and 100 mg of voxilaprevir) taken orally once daily with food.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

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.

“Vosevi (sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, and voxilaprevir) cures hepatitis C over a single short course, and that is exactly why I would be genuinely careful with supplements while taking it. Anything that drags its blood levels down can cost you the cure itself.”

About Pata De Vaca

What is Pata De Vaca?

Blood sugar support
Diabetes (traditional use)
Diuretic
Kidney and urinary health
General tonic

Pata de Vaca is a South American plant whose leaves are traditionally brewed as a tea to help support blood sugar, earning it the nickname 'vegetable insulin.' Human evidence is very limited, so it should not replace prescribed diabetes treatment. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you take blood-sugar medications.

Bauhinia forficata · Fabaceae · Leaves · Tea (infusion), capsules, dried leaf, liquid extract

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

Pata De Vaca: dosing

There is no established standardized dose for Pata de Vaca. Traditional use is mostly as a leaf tea, but the strength of teas and supplements varies widely between products.If you choose to use it, follow the directions on the product label and start low.
