The bottom line No known interaction

Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Rosemary and Amphetamine

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 Amphetamine and Rosemary 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.

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.

Rosemary safety at a glance

Rosemary overall Generally safe Safe in normal culinary amounts; concentrated extracts and undiluted essential oil require caution.
Pregnancy Possibly Unsafe When used orally in medicinal amounts. Rosemary might have uterine and menstrual flow stimulant effects, and might increase metabolism of estradiol and estrone;... Read the full pregnancy detail
Breastfeeding Use caution Food amounts are likely fine, but there is not enough safety data on medicinal doses, so avoid them.

Pregnancy & breastfeeding ratings are from Natural Medicines (Therapeutic Research Center) — the full detail is in the Special populations card below. Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Amphetamine

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications — including monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois), amphetamines, stimulant drugs. Rosemary has documented interactions with 6 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate), antidiabetes drugs (moderate) and aspirin (moderate) — and none of Amphetamine’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

Keep it in perspective

What to actually watch for

What Rosemary Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Amphetamine. It is the side-effect record for Rosemary on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Rosemary, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Wheezing / An allergic reaction Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Topically, allergic reactions can occur. When used in the mouth, lip and gum edema have occurred. When used on the skin, allergic contact dermatitis has occurred, likely due to the constituent carnosol.

    Rosemary might also cause occupational asthma. A case of occupational asthma caused by several aromatic herbs including thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, and garlic has been reported.”

About Rosemary

What is Rosemary?

Rosemary
  • Memory and concentration
  • Digestive upset
  • Hair growth
  • Anxiety and stress (aromatherapy)
  • Muscle and joint discomfort
  • Antioxidant support

Rosemary is a fragrant Mediterranean herb that is safe and flavorful in normal food amounts. Some early research suggests possible benefits for memory, mood, and hair growth, but the evidence is limited and far from conclusive. Concentrated supplements and the essential oil should be used carefully, and the essential oil should never be swallowed.

Rosmarinus officinalis · Lamiaceae · Leaves and essential oil · Culinary herb, tea, capsules, dried leaf extract, essential oil (for aromatherapy and topical use)

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

Rosemary: dosing

There is no well-established standardized dose for rosemary as a supplement. Amounts used in studies have varied widely depending on the form (tea, extract, or aromatherapy).If you use a rosemary supplement, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed the recommended amount.
