The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Pau D'arco and Infigratinib 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.

Pau D'arco and Infigratinib

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 Infigratinib and Pau D'arco 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.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Infigratinib

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Infigratinib is filed under 2 classifications — cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Pau D'arco has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate) — and none of Infigratinib’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.

What Pau D'arco Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Infigratinib. It is the side-effect record for Pau D'arco on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Pau D'arco, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Overlapping uses

What Infigratinib Is Prescribed For, and What Pau D'arco Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Infigratinib is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Pau D'arco is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Pau D'arco has been studied for:

  • Cancer studied, not established Pau D'arco has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Pau D'arco for cancer

    Although there has been interest in using oral pau d'arco for cancer, there is insufficient reliable information about the clinical effects of pau d'arco for this purpose.

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 Infigratinib on your own; if you are taking Pau D'arco for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Infigratinib page

“Infigratinib (Truseltiq) treats a form of bile duct cancer, and the supplements on this list deserve genuine care, because most of them can shift how much of the drug actually reaches your blood. Nearly all of these interactions run through CYP3A4, the liver enzyme that breaks infigratinib down.”

About Pau D'arco

What is Pau D'arco?

Pau D'arco
  • Infections (bacterial, fungal, yeast)
  • Inflammation
  • Immune support
  • Digestive complaints
  • Skin conditions

Pau d'arco is a South American tree bark traditionally used for infections and inflammation, and it contains compounds like lapachol that show activity in lab studies. However, strong human evidence is lacking, and safety concerns exist at higher doses, so it should be used cautiously and discussed with a pharmacist or doctor first.

Handroanthus impetiginosus · Bignoniaceae · Inner bark · Tea (decoction), capsules, tablets, liquid extracts, tinctures

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

Pau D'arco: dosing

There is no well-established, standardized dose for pau d'arco. Products vary widely in strength and form, and the amount of active compounds can differ from one product to another.Because larger doses raise the risk of toxic effects, it is best to use the smallest reasonable amount, follow the directions on the product label, and not exceed them.

About Infigratinib

What Is Infigratinib Used For?

Brand name: Truseltiq

  • Infigratinib is used in adults who have received previous therapy to treat a certain type of cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer) that has spread to nearby tissues or other parts of the body and cannot be removed by surgery. Infigratinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps stop or slow the spread of cancer cells.

Taking Pau D'arco and Infigratinib Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Pau D'arco with Infigratinib?

They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together.

How was the Pau D'arco and Infigratinib combination checked?

Infigratinib is filed under 2 classifications, and Pau D'arco has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Infigratinib'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.
