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

Scarlet Pimpernel and Ivosidenib

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 Ivosidenib and Scarlet Pimpernel 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 Scarlet Pimpernel at all — not against Ivosidenib, 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.

  • Muscle weakness Worth acting on
  • Blood clots Worth acting on
  • An irregular heartbeat Worth acting on
  • A severe skin reaction Worth acting on

About Scarlet Pimpernel

What is Scarlet Pimpernel?

  • Skin conditions and wounds
  • Liver and gallbladder complaints
  • Respiratory ailments
  • Mild mood or 'melancholy' (folk use)
  • Urinary complaints

Scarlet Pimpernel is a small wild flowering plant with a long history in folk medicine, but there is very little modern scientific evidence to support any of its uses. It contains compounds called saponins that can be irritating and potentially toxic, so it is generally not recommended for internal use. If you are considering it, talk with a pharmacist or doctor first.

Lysimachia arvensis · Primulaceae · Aerial parts (leaves, flowers, and stems) · Dried herb, tinctures, infusions, and topical preparations

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

Scarlet Pimpernel: dosing

There is no established, standardized safe dose for Scarlet Pimpernel. Because of its potential toxicity and the lack of quality research, no specific milligram amount can be recommended.If you find a commercial product, follow the label directions exactly and do not exceed them.
