Phenpromethamine and Everolimus

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 Everolimus and Phenpromethamine 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 Everolimus

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Everolimus is filed under 7 classifications — including cytochrome p450 2d6 (cyp2d6) inhibitors, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inhibitors, p-glycoprotein substrates. Phenpromethamine has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being stimulant drugs (moderate) — and none of Everolimus’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 Everolimus’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Phenpromethamine. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Everolimus’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.

  • Dehydration Worth acting on
  • High potassium Worth acting on
  • Low sodium Worth acting on
  • Low blood sugar Worth acting on
  • Low potassium Worth acting on
  • A heart attack Worth acting on
  • Blood clots Worth acting on
  • Heart failure Worth acting on
  • High blood sugar Worth acting on
  • Shortness of breath Worth acting on mentioned in 5.2% of FDA reports for Everolimus

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Everolimus. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 50,590 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Everolimus that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Phenpromethamine’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Phenpromethamine side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Phenpromethamine has no side effects.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Everolimus

This page covers Phenpromethamine only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Everolimus page lists 156 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Asarabacca (major), Grapefruit (major), Siberian Cocklebur (major) and St. John's Wort (major).

By severity: 5 major · 112 moderate · 39 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Everolimus page

“Everolimus (Afinitor, Zortress, Certican) has to stay in a narrow blood-level window, whether you take it after an organ transplant or for cancer, so treat this supplement list with real caution. Most of its 156 interacting ingredients can push those levels up or down, mainly by changing how the CYP3A4 enzyme breaks the drug down.”

About Phenpromethamine

What is Phenpromethamine?

  • Nasal decongestion (historical)
  • Stimulant effects (misuse)
  • Pre-workout 'energy' (illegally added to some products)

Phenpromethamine is a synthetic stimulant drug, not a herb or legitimate dietary supplement. It has been found illegally added to some sports and weight-loss supplements, and it is not approved for use in the United States. You should avoid any product that lists it as an ingredient and talk to a pharmacist or doctor.

Not applicable; phenpromethamine is a synthetic chemical, not a plant part · Historically found as a nasal inhaler; not a legitimate dietary supplement ingredient

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

Phenpromethamine: dosing

There is no established or recommended dose of phenpromethamine for supplement use. It is not an approved supplement ingredient, and any amount found in products is unregulated and potentially unsafe.Because the amount in spiked products is unknown and uncontrolled, no dose can be considered safe. The best advice is to avoid products that contain it entirely.

Everolimus is used to treat several serious conditions. In cancer, it is prescribed for advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer (in postmenopausal women), certain neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas, GI tract, or lung, and advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) when other treatments have stopped working.

It is also used for people with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) — a genetic condition that causes benign tumors to grow throughout the body. In TSC, it treats kidney tumors called angiomyolipomas, brain tumors called SEGA, and seizures. In kidney transplant patients, it helps prevent the body from rejecting the new organ.
