Relaxation Therapy and Roflumilast

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 Roflumilast and Relaxation Therapy in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — research on Relaxation Therapy alongside specific medications may be limited.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Relaxation Therapy at all — not against Roflumilast, 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.

Relaxation Therapy is a practice rather than something you take. Ask your care team whether the type and intensity you plan to practice are appropriate for your health and treatment. 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.

What Roflumilast’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Relaxation Therapy. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Roflumilast’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 practice Relaxation Therapy and take the medicine. 2 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Hives Worth acting on
  • A higher chance of infection Worth acting on
  • A stuffy or runny nose
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Diarrhea
  • A skin rash
  • Vomiting
  • Headache
  • Nausea

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Roflumilast. Read the label on DailyMed › Relaxation Therapy’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Relaxation Therapy side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Relaxation Therapy has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Roflumilast page

“Roflumilast (Daliresp for severe COPD, Zoryve as a cream for skin conditions) is cleared almost entirely by one liver enzyme, CYP3A4, which is why 121 of the 141 supplements on this page can push its level up or down, and why real caution is warranted here. Start with the three rated major: grapefruit blocks that enzyme and can raise r…”

About Relaxation Therapy

What is Relaxation Therapy?

  • Anxiety and stress
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Chronic pain
  • High blood pressure
  • Headaches
  • Calming before medical procedures

Relaxation therapy is a group of mind-body techniques—like deep breathing, guided imagery, and progressive muscle relaxation—used to reduce stress and promote calm. It is low-risk for most people and has moderate evidence for easing anxiety, stress, and some pain or sleep problems. It is best used alongside, not instead of, standard medical care.

Not applicable (mind-body practice) · Guided imagery, progressive muscle relaxation, deep breathing, autogenic training, biofeedback, meditation

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

Relaxation Therapy: dosing

There is no standardized "dose" for relaxation therapy. Many programs suggest practicing for about 10 to 20 minutes once or twice a day, but what matters most is regular, consistent practice.You can use guided apps, audio recordings, classes, or work one-on-one with a therapist or biofeedback specialist.
