Podophyllum + Dextroamphetamine
Dextroamphetamine brand name: Dexedrine.
We found no known interaction between Podophyllum and Dextroamphetamine 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.
Podophyllum and Dextroamphetamine
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 Dextroamphetamine and Podophyllum 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 Podophyllum at all — not against Dextroamphetamine, 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.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Ephedra (major), Lithium (major), Peyote (major) and Rauvolfia Vomitoria (major).

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dextroamphetamine page
“Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) is a stimulant for ADHD and narcolepsy, and I read this list with genuine wariness. Six of the 129 ingredients rate major, most of them because other stimulants, ephedra being the clearest, pile extra heart rate and blood pressure on top of what the drug already produces.”

About Podophyllum
What is Podophyllum?
- Genital and skin warts (topical)
- Constipation (historical/traditional laxative)
- Digestive complaints (homeopathic)
- Watery diarrhea (homeopathic)
- Liver and gallbladder remedies (traditional)
Podophyllum (American mayapple) is a toxic plant whose resin contains podophyllotoxin, used in prescription topical products to treat warts. The raw plant and crude resin are poisonous if taken by mouth and should never be self-used. Only use FDA-approved wart products exactly as directed and under medical guidance.
Podophyllum peltatum · Berberidaceae · Dried root and rhizome (and the resin extracted from it, called podophyllin) · Topical resin/solution (prescription podophyllin and podofilox), homeopathic preparations; historically a crude purgative
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Podophyllum is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Podophyllum record says about it on its own.
Podophyllum: dosing
There is no safe self-care oral dose for podophyllum, and the whole plant should not be taken by mouth. For warts, dosing is determined entirely by the strength of the prescription product and your clinician's instructions.If you are prescribed a topical podophyllin or podofilox product, use only the amount directed, apply it only to the warts, and follow the schedule and wash-off instructions exactly. Never increase the amount or frequency on your own.

About Dextroamphetamine
What Is Dextroamphetamine Used For?
Brand name: Dexedrine
Dextroamphetamine treats two conditions: ADHD and narcolepsy (a sleep disorder causing uncontrollable daytime sleepiness). It is available in multiple forms — tablets, extended-release capsules, oral solution, and a skin patch — and the approved age ranges vary by product.
Oral tablets (Zenzedi, generic) and oral solutions (Procentra, generic) are approved for ADHD in children as young as 3 years old and for narcolepsy. Extended-release capsules (Dexedrine, generic) are approved for ADHD in children ages 6 to 16 and for narcolepsy. Xelstrym, the transdermal patch, is approved only for ADHD — in adults and children ages 6 and older — and is not indicated for narcolepsy.
