We found no known interaction between Sweet Cicely and Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Pseudoephedrine 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.
Sweet Cicely and Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Pseudoephedrine
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 Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Pseudoephedrine and Sweet Cicely 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.
Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Sweet Cicely at all — not against Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Pseudoephedrine, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.
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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Pseudoephedrine page
“Ephedra is the ingredient to notice first here. Pseudoephedrine, the decongestant in Tylenol Flu, Alka-Seltzer PLUS Flu, and other acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, and pseudoephedrine combinations, is itself a stimulant, and 44 entries push the same direction, raising the odds of high blood pressure and a racing heart.”
