Interaction report

Skullcap and hydrocortisone, clioquinol, pramoxine

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 hydrocortisone, clioquinol, pramoxine and Skullcap 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.

Skullcap overall Use caution Often used short-term, but evidence is limited and product quality varies, so use with care.

Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety data, so it is best avoided during pregnancy.

Breastfeeding Avoid Safety is unknown, 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 hydrocortisone, clioquinol, pramoxine

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. hydrocortisone, clioquinol, pramoxine is filed under a single classification — topical drugs. Skullcap has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being cns depressants (moderate) — and none of hydrocortisone, clioquinol, pramoxine’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 to actually watch for

What Skullcap Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves hydrocortisone, clioquinol, pramoxine. It is the side-effect record for Skullcap on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Skullcap, this list is the first place to look. One entry is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Memory problems Worth acting on Additional detail
“A single skullcap extract dose of 100 mg does not seem to have adverse CNS effects. However, a higher dose of 200 mg might cause sedation and cognitive impairment. One patient taking skullcap 350 mg three times daily for 2 weeks reported vivid dreams. It is unclear if this event was associated with skullcap.”

“Hydrocortisone with clioquinol and pramoxine (the 1 + 1-F creme) is a skin cream that calms itching and infection-related irritation, and only three supplement ingredients interact with it, none rated major.

About Skullcap

What is Skullcap?

Anxiety and stress
Trouble sleeping
Nervous tension
Muscle spasms
General relaxation

American skullcap is an herb traditionally used to calm anxiety and promote relaxation, but solid human evidence is very limited. It is generally considered relatively safe for short-term use in healthy adults, though it should be avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding and used cautiously because of possible liver concerns and product mislabeling.

Scutellaria lateriflora · Lamiaceae · Above-ground parts (leaves, stems, and flowers) · Tea, capsules, tinctures, liquid extracts, dried herb

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

Skullcap: dosing

There is no official, standardized dose for American skullcap. The right amount can vary depending on the product and the form (tea, capsule, or tincture).The safest approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not take more than recommended.
