Drug & supplement interaction

Sangre De Grado + Idelalisib

Idelalisib brand name: Zydelig.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Sangre De Grado and Idelalisib 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 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.

Sangre De Grado and Idelalisib

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 Idelalisib and Sangre De Grado 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 Sangre De Grado at all — not against Idelalisib, 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.

Sangre De Grado overall Use caution It has a long history of traditional use but limited safety data for supplements, so use cautiously.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Sangre De Grado and Idelalisib 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.

  • Diarrhea / Stomach pain reported in 11.0% of FDA reports for Idelalisib Additional detail

    Sangre De Grado

    “Orally, gastrointestinal adverse effects have been reported in some patients taking the sangre de grado constituent crofelemer (SP-303).

    Listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Idelalisib, and in voluntary FDA adverse-event reports. Read the label on DailyMed ›

Reported for Sangre De Grado but not commonly for Idelalisib: constipation, bloating or gas and headache.

Effects for Idelalisib come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Sangre De Grado come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 7,040 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Idelalisib that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

About Sangre De Grado

What is Sangre De Grado?

  • Diarrhea
  • Wound healing and skin sores
  • Digestive and stomach complaints
  • Insect bites and minor skin irritation
  • Sore throat and mouth ulcers

Sangre de Grado is a red tree sap from the Amazon rainforest used traditionally for diarrhea, wounds, and skin problems. Some of its compounds have been studied scientifically, and one purified ingredient (crofelemer) is used in a prescription anti-diarrhea drug, but the raw supplement itself has limited human research. Talk with a pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a health condition.

Croton lechleri · Euphorbiaceae · Red sap (latex) from the bark of the tree · Liquid sap, tincture, topical gel or cream, capsules, and a purified extract (crofelemer) used in some medicines
