Drug & supplement interaction

Serrapeptase + Maraviroc

Maraviroc brand names: Celsentri, Selzentry.

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 Serrapeptase and Maraviroc 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.

Interaction report

Serrapeptase and Maraviroc

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 Maraviroc and Serrapeptase 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.

Serrapeptase safety at a glance

Serrapeptase overall Use caution Generally tolerated short-term, but long-term safety is not well studied.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety data, so it is best avoided during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid No reliable safety information, so avoid 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 Maraviroc

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Maraviroc is filed under 3 classifications — hepatotoxic drugs, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Serrapeptase has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate) — and none of Maraviroc’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.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Serrapeptase and Maraviroc May Share a Side Effect

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.

  • Nausea Additional detail

    “Orally, some patients have reported experiencing epigastric pain, gastrointestinal upset, and nausea; however, these side effects appear to occur at the same rate as placebo.”

    Maraviroc

    Listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Maraviroc. Read the label on DailyMed ›

Reported for Serrapeptase but not commonly for Maraviroc: stomach upset.

Effects for Maraviroc come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Serrapeptase come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 2,288 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Maraviroc 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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Maraviroc page

“Someone taking maraviroc (Selzentry) for HIV needs a steady blood level to keep the virus suppressed, and that level is exactly what most of the 168 supplements on this page can disturb, so this list calls for genuine care. About 121 entries share maraviroc's clearance route, the CYP3A4 enzyme, which means grapefruit can push levels up…”

About Serrapeptase

What is Serrapeptase?

  • Inflammation and swelling
  • Sinus and respiratory congestion
  • Pain after surgery or injury
  • Joint and back pain
  • Thinning mucus

Serrapeptase is an enzyme marketed to reduce inflammation, swelling, pain, and mucus, but the human evidence is limited and mostly low quality. If you want to try it, choose an enteric-coated product, follow the label, and check with your pharmacist or doctor first—especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or take other medicines.

Enzyme produced by bacteria (Serratia species) found in silkworms · Tablets, capsules (often enteric-coated)

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

Serrapeptase: dosing

There is no official or well-established dose for serrapeptase. Products are often measured in enzyme "units" rather than simple milligrams, and these vary between brands.The best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed them.

About Maraviroc

What Is Maraviroc Used For?

Brand names: Celsentri, Selzentry

Maraviroc treats a specific type of HIV-1 infection called CCR5-tropic HIV-1. It is always used alongside other antiretroviral (anti-HIV) medicines — never alone. A special test called a tropism assay must be done before starting treatment to confirm you have the right type of HIV.

Selzentry (the brand-name oral solution and tablet) is approved for adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 2 kg. Generic maraviroc tablets are approved for adults and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older weighing at least 10 kg. Neither form is recommended for patients whose HIV is classified as dual/mixed-tropic or CXCR4-tropic.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Maraviroc

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (2,288 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Virologic failure 140 reports
Viral mutation identified 128 reports
Pathogen resistance 124 reports

Taking Serrapeptase and Maraviroc Together: Common Questions

Do Serrapeptase and Maraviroc have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to one of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other.

How was the Serrapeptase and Maraviroc combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Maraviroc is filed under 3 classifications, and Serrapeptase has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Maraviroc's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Serrapeptase interact with any other medications?
Yes. Serrapeptase has 122 documented drug interactions in our database — Maraviroc is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
