Sweet Annie and Amphetamine

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 Amphetamine and Sweet Annie 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.

Sweet Annie safety at a glance

Sweet Annie overall Use caution Generally used short-term, but quality and dose vary widely and it should not replace proven treatments.
Pregnancy Avoid Avoid during pregnancy because of possible harm to the developing baby.
Breastfeeding Avoid Not enough 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 Amphetamine

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications — including monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois), amphetamines, stimulant drugs. Sweet Annie has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being cytochrome p450 2b6 (cyp2b6) substrates (moderate), cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates (moderate) and hepatotoxic drugs (moderate) — and none of Amphetamine’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 Sweet Annie Itself Has Been Linked To

About Sweet Annie

What is Sweet Annie?

Sweet Annie
  • Malaria (traditional)
  • Fever
  • Inflammation
  • Digestive complaints
  • Antimicrobial support
  • Insect repellent

Sweet Annie (Artemisia annua) is the source of artemisinin, a compound used in prescription antimalarial drugs. While the purified drug is well studied for malaria, the herb itself as a supplement is not proven for the wide range of conditions people use it for, and self-treating malaria with the raw herb is dangerous. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it.

Artemisia annua · Asteraceae · Aerial parts (leaves and flowering tops) · Tea, dried herb, capsules, tablets, tinctures, standardized extracts

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

Sweet Annie: dosing

There is no well-established standard dose for Sweet Annie as a supplement, and the amount of artemisinin in plant products varies widely. Because of this, it is hard to know how much active compound you are actually getting.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. Look for reputable brands that provide quality testing. Never use Sweet Annie or its tea as a substitute for proven malaria treatment.
