The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Sweet Cicely and Albuterol 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 Albuterol

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 Albuterol 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 Albuterol, 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.

Sweet Cicely safety at a glance

Sweet Cicely overall Use caution Likely safe in small culinary amounts, but medicinal use is poorly studied.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety data, so it is best avoided in medicinal amounts during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid Safety has not been studied, so avoid medicinal use while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Albuterol

This page covers Sweet Cicely only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Albuterol page lists 32 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Black Tea (moderate), Caffeine (moderate), Cocoa (moderate) and Coffee (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 22 moderate · 9 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Albuterol page

“Albuterol is a rescue drug; when an asthma attack hits, a Ventolin or ProAir inhaler has to work, which is why this list deserves a careful read rather than a skim. Of the 32 ingredients on file, activated charcoal alone is rated major, since it can soak up the drug and blunt its effect no matter how the albuterol was taken.”

About Sweet Cicely

What is Sweet Cicely?

  • Digestive upset and gas
  • Mild cough and chest complaints
  • As a natural sweetener for tart foods
  • Loss of appetite
  • General tonic

Sweet Cicely is a mild, anise-flavored garden herb traditionally used in cooking and folk remedies for digestion and coughs. There is very little modern scientific research to confirm any health benefits, but it is generally considered safe in food amounts. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it as a medicine, especially if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Myrrhis odorata · Apiaceae · Leaves, seeds, and roots · Fresh or dried herb, tea, culinary herb, occasionally tincture

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

Sweet Cicely: dosing

There is no established, standardized medicinal dose for Sweet Cicely. Most use is culinary, where the fresh or dried leaves and seeds are added to food or steeped as a mild tea.If you choose to use a commercial Sweet Cicely product, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed the recommended amount.

About Albuterol

What Is Albuterol Used For?

Brand names: Proventil, Volmax, Ventolin (U.S.), ProAir HFA

Albuterol is used to treat or prevent bronchospasm — sudden tightening of the airways — in adults and children with reversible obstructive airway disease, such as asthma. Most inhaled formulations (HFA inhalers, dry-powder inhalers, and nebulizer solutions) are approved for patients 4 years and older, though some nebulizer solutions are approved for children as young as 2, and the oral syrup covers adults and children 2 and older. Albuterol tablets are approved for adults and children 6 and older.

Albuterol inhaled products are also used to prevent exercise-induced bronchospasm in patients 4 years and older. The inhaled aerosol solution (0.5%) is approved specifically for relief of bronchospasm and acute attacks in patients 12 and older. Not every formulation covers every use — follow the instructions for the specific product you have been prescribed.
