Interaction report

Rhodiola and Tildrakizumab-Asmn

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

IMMUNOSUPPRESSANTS

Why this applies to Tildrakizumab-Asmn

Tildrakizumab-Asmn falls under IMMUNOSUPPRESSANTS — the group Rhodiola interacts with.

Theoretically, rhodiola use might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In vitro and animal research show that rhodiola has immunostimulatory effects.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the idea behind this pairing. Tildrakizumab (Ilumya) is an injected antibody that calms an overactive immune signal to clear up your psoriasis plaques. Rhodiola, on the other hand, has shown immune-stimulating activity in lab and animal studies. So in theory, perking up the immune system with rhodiola could work against what Ilumya is trying to quiet down, possibly making your psoriasis harder to control.

I want to be honest about the strength of this, though. It's only a theoretical concern based on test-tube and animal data, not real cases in people taking Ilumya. Still, since the two pull in opposite directions, it's worth a quick chat with your dermatologist or pharmacist before adding rhodiola. Don't stop either one on your own.

About Rhodiola

What is Rhodiola?

Rhodiola
  • Fatigue and low energy
  • Stress and coping (adaptogen)
  • Mental performance and focus
  • Mild depression
  • Physical and exercise performance

Rhodiola is an herb traditionally used to fight fatigue and help the body cope with stress. Some small studies suggest it may modestly reduce fatigue and improve mood, but the evidence is limited and not strong. It is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but talk to your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
