Sceletium and Tralokinumab-ldrm

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 Tralokinumab-ldrm and Sceletium 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.

Sceletium safety at a glance

Sceletium overall Use caution It appears generally tolerable in small studies, but long-term safety is not well established.
Pregnancy Avoid There is not enough safety information, so it is best avoided during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid Safety data are lacking, so avoid use while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Tralokinumab-ldrm

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Tralokinumab-ldrm is filed under a single classification — immunosuppressants. Sceletium has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being cns depressants (moderate) — and none of Tralokinumab-ldrm’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.

What Sceletium Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Low mood Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, a sceletium extract has been reported to cause anxiety, headache, insomnia, and irritability. There are also anecdotal reports that chewing sceletium can cause headache, depression, and listlessness.

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Sceletium — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Tralokinumab-ldrm’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Tralokinumab-ldrm column appears here.

About Sceletium

What is Sceletium?

  • Anxiety and stress
  • Low mood
  • Mental focus and cognition
  • Relaxation
  • Traditional use as a mood lifter

Sceletium (often sold as 'kanna') is a South African plant traditionally used to ease stress and lift mood. Early human studies are small and short, so its benefits are not well proven. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Sceletium tortuosum · Aizoaceae · Aerial parts (leaves, stems, and flowers), often fermented · Capsules, tablets, powders, tinctures, chewed plant material, and tea

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

Sceletium: dosing

There is no official, well-established dose for Sceletium. Products differ greatly in their strength and in how they are prepared and standardized.If you choose to use it, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed the suggested amount.

From our Sceletium monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.
