Pygeum + Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide
Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide brand name: Ascriptin.
We found no known interaction between Pygeum and Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide 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.
Pygeum and Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide
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 Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide and Pygeum 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 Pygeum at all — not against Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide, 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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide page
“Ascriptin combines aspirin with two antacids, aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, and the aspirin part already thins the blood on its own. That is why more than 200 of the 255 ingredients listed here can raise bleeding risk, and why this page deserves a careful read rather than a quick skim.”

About Pygeum
What is Pygeum?
- Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptoms
- Urinary symptoms in men
- Prostate health
- Inflammation
Pygeum is an extract from the bark of the African cherry tree that is most often used to ease urinary symptoms linked to an enlarged prostate. Some studies suggest modest benefit for these symptoms, but the research is limited and not high quality. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it, especially since urinary symptoms can have serious causes.
Prunus africana · Rosaceae · Bark · Capsules, tablets, liquid extracts
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Pygeum is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Pygeum record says about it on its own.
Pygeum: dosing
There is no single official or standardized dose of pygeum. Do not assume that taking more will work better, and let your healthcare provider know you are using it so they can monitor your symptoms.
From our Pygeum monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.
About Aspirin
What Is Aspirin Used For?
Brand name: Ascriptin
Aspirin is used to temporarily relieve minor aches and pains from headaches, backaches, muscle aches, toothaches, menstrual cramps, the common cold, and minor arthritis pain. It also temporarily reduces fever.
Some coated aspirin tablet products note that, under a doctor's supervision, aspirin can help prevent another heart attack or stroke in adults who have already had one. Because of their delayed-release design, those coated products will not give fast relief for headaches or other symptoms needing quick relief.
