Salvia Divinorum + Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride

Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride brand name: Jentadueto XR.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Oct 4, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Salvia Divinorum and Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride states a food rule worth keeping to, and the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Interaction report

Salvia Divinorum and Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride

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 Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride and Salvia Divinorum 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 Salvia Divinorum at all — not against Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride, 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.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Salvia Divinorum and Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

    “Neurologic changes caused by Salvia divinorum are rapid, intense, and short-lived. Most evidence suggests a peak effect within 2 minutes following consumption by smoking, with a slower peak when consumed orally. Most symptoms cease within 20 minutes; however, the 'high' can last as long as 2 hours.”

How to take them

Some Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride Products Have a Food Rule — Salvia Divinorum Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride says to take it with food. If you take Salvia Divinorum on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride with a meal where the label says to.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Individualize the starting dosage of JENTADUETO XR based on the patient's current regimen ( 2.1 ) The maximum recommended dosage is 5 mg linagliptin/2,000 mg metformin HCl once daily ( 2.1 ) Take orally once daily with a meal, with gradual dose escalation to reduce the gastrointestinal effects due to metformin ( 2.1 ) Swallow whole; do not split, crush, dissolve, or che

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Linagliptin, Metformin Hydrochloride page

“Someone taking Jentadueto XR (linagliptin and metformin) for type 2 diabetes is often the same person eyeing fenugreek, bitter melon, or gymnema, and that overlap is why this page deserves real caution. Of its 285 ingredients, 239 can lower blood sugar on their own, so stacking them on a drug already doing that job risks pushing glucos…”

About Salvia Divinorum

What is Salvia Divinorum?

  • Hallucinogenic or psychedelic experiences
  • Spiritual or ritual practices
  • Recreational use
  • Traditional Mazatec healing ceremonies

Salvia divinorum is a powerful hallucinogenic plant traditionally used by the Mazatec people of Mexico and now used recreationally for its short but intense mind-altering effects. There is no proven medical use, the safety is poorly studied, and it is illegal or restricted in many places. Because its effects can be unpredictable and disorienting, we do not recommend using it.

Salvia divinorum · Lamiaceae · Leaves · Dried leaves (smoked), chewed fresh leaves, leaf extracts, tinctures

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

Salvia Divinorum: dosing

There is no established or recommended safe dose for Salvia divinorum. The strength of leaves and extracts varies widely, and concentrated products can be far more potent than plain leaves, making effects hard to predict.Because it is not a proven medicine and is restricted in many areas, we cannot recommend any specific amount.
