No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Salvia Divinorum and Propranolol 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.

Salvia Divinorum and Propranolol

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 Propranolol 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 Propranolol, 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.

What to actually watch for

What Salvia Divinorum Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Unsteadiness / Hallucinations / Confusion Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally or by inhalation, Salvia divinorum can cause hallucinogenic effects. These include restlessness, hyperactivity, disorientation, loss of coordination, dizziness, slurred speech, altered perceptions, changes in perception of body temperature, personal detachment or distorted body ownership, fatigue, severe mood changes, and psychosis. Most of these effects resolve within 20 minutes;”

Most symptoms cease within 20 minutes; however, the 'high' can last as long as 2 hours.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Salvia Divinorum — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We haven’t matched Propranolol to its FDA label in our system yet, so we can’t compare its own side-effect list here — the leaflet that comes with your prescription is the authoritative list for Propranolol.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Propranolol

This page covers Salvia Divinorum only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Propranolol page lists 236 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), American Hellebore (major), American Mistletoe (major), Indian Snakeroot (major) and Tyramine (major).

By severity: 5 major · 194 moderate · 37 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Propranolol page

“Propranolol (Inderal) slows the heart and lowers blood pressure, which is exactly why its 236-ingredient interaction list deserves genuine care. Five entries rate major, and those are the ones to understand first.”

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.

About Propranolol (Cardiovascular)

What Is Propranolol (Cardiovascular) Used For?

Brand names: Inderal LA, Inderal, Angilol, Syprol, Inderal Injection, Half-Inderal LA, Bedranol SR, Half Beta Prograne, Beta Prograne, Lopranol LA, Slo-Pro, InnoPran XL

This intravenous (IV) form of propranolol is used in hospital or clinical settings to treat dangerous heart rhythm problems. It is generally reserved for life-threatening arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) or those that occur during anesthesia.

Specific conditions it treats include fast heart rates coming from the upper chambers of the heart (supraventricular tachycardia), certain arrhythmias caused by digitalis toxicity, dangerous ventricular rhythms that haven't responded to other treatments, and fast heart rates caused by excess adrenaline-like substances during surgery.
