Interaction Details
Aspirin, Ethoheptazine, Meprobamate is classified as belonging to the following category: Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Puravive, a dietary supplement, contains several ingredients that may interact with anticoagulant drugs due to their potential mild anticoagulant effects. These ingredients include Kudzu, Panax ginseng, Phellodendron, and Propolis. Ginsenosides in Panax ginseng may decrease platelet aggregation in lab studies, but human studies have not confirmed this effect. Animal studies suggest low oral bioavailability of certain compounds in ginseng, which could explain differences between lab and human research. Propolis water extract and caffeic acid phenethyl ester, found in propolis, have also been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation in lab studies. Additionally, in an animal model, propolis taken with warfarin reduced the effectiveness of warfarin, suggesting a potential interaction with anticoagulant drugs. Lastly, Phellodendron contains berberine, which studies show may inhibit platelet aggregation.
