Red Maple and Dextromethorphan, Methscopolamine, Phenylephrine

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 Dextromethorphan, Methscopolamine, Phenylephrine and Red Maple 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 Red Maple at all — not against Dextromethorphan, Methscopolamine, Phenylephrine, 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 Dextromethorphan, Methscopolamine, Phenylephrine page

“Dextromethorphan with methscopolamine and phenylephrine (DA Chewable) packs a cough suppressant, a drying agent, and a decongestant into one tablet, which gives supplements several distinct ways to cause trouble, so I treat this as a list deserving real caution. Grapefruit can drive levels of the drug up by blocking its breakdown, St.”

About Red Maple

What is Red Maple?

  • Eye and skin irritation (traditional washes)
  • Coughs and sore throat
  • Digestive complaints
  • General tonic
  • Source of edible sap and syrup

Red maple is a common North American tree best known as a source of maple sap, with a long history of traditional Native American medicinal use of its bark and leaves. There is very little modern human research to support any health benefit, so it should not be relied on to treat any condition. Importantly, red maple leaves are highly toxic to horses, and people should use caution and talk to a healthcare provider before using any red maple product.

Acer rubrum · Sapindaceae · Bark, leaves, and sap · Tea, bark decoction, tinctures, and sap/syrup (food use)

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

Red Maple: dosing

There is no established or standardized medicinal dose for red maple. Traditional preparations were made as teas or decoctions of the bark or leaves, but amounts varied widely and were not measured in a consistent way.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.
