Securinega Suffruticosa and Probenecid

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 Probenecid and Securinega Suffruticosa 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.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Probenecid

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Probenecid is filed under 6 classifications — including antigout drugs, organic anion transporter 3 (oat3) substrates, organic anion transporter 1 (oat1) substrates. Securinega Suffruticosa has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being stimulant drugs (moderate) — and none of Probenecid’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 Probenecid’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Securinega Suffruticosa. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Probenecid’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 6 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Hives Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
  • Liver problems Worth acting on
  • An allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Flushing
  • Hair loss
  • Joint pain
  • Reduced appetite

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Probenecid. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 1,262 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Probenecid that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Securinega Suffruticosa’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Securinega Suffruticosa side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Securinega Suffruticosa has no side effects.

About Securinega Suffruticosa

What is Securinega Suffruticosa?

  • Nerve and muscle weakness
  • Fatigue and low energy
  • Nerve-related conditions in traditional medicine
  • Childhood paralysis (historical traditional use)
  • General tonic

Securinega suffruticosa is a shrub used in traditional East Asian medicine, best known for an alkaloid called securinine that strongly stimulates the nervous system. Because securinine is powerful and can cause seizures and serious toxicity, this plant is not a safe or well-studied dietary supplement, and it should not be used for self-treatment. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist before considering anything containing this plant.

Securinega suffruticosa · Phyllanthaceae · Leaves, twigs, and aerial parts (roots in some traditional preparations) · Dried herb decoction, tinctures, and isolated alkaloid extracts (mainly used in research settings)

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

Securinega Suffruticosa: dosing

There is no established, standardized safe dose of Securinega suffruticosa for use as a supplement. The plant's alkaloid content can vary, and the active compound securinine has a narrow margin between any effect and toxic effects.Because of these safety concerns, we cannot recommend a specific amount.

About Probenecid

What Is Probenecid Used For?

Brand names: Benemid, Benuryl, Probecid

Probenecid tablets are used to treat hyperuricemia (high uric acid levels in the blood) associated with gout and gouty arthritis. By helping the kidneys remove more uric acid, it lowers uric acid levels over time and helps prevent painful gout attacks.

Probenecid tablets are also used alongside certain penicillin-type antibiotics — including penicillin, ampicillin, methicillin, oxacillin, cloxacillin, and nafcillin — to raise and sustain the antibiotic's level in the bloodstream, making the antibiotic work more effectively.
