Drug & supplement interaction

Tannic Acid + Pasireotide Diaspartate

Pasireotide Diaspartate brand name: Signifor.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tannic Acid and Pasireotide Diaspartate 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.

Tannic Acid and Pasireotide Diaspartate

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 Pasireotide Diaspartate and Tannic Acid 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 Tannic Acid at all — not against Pasireotide Diaspartate, 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.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Tannic Acid and Pasireotide Diaspartate May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

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. One of them is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Liver problems Worth acting on Additional detail

    Tannic Acid

    “Orally, large amounts of tannic acid can cause gastric irritation, nausea, and vomiting (11). Extensive use of tannins on burns or in enemas has been associated with fatal liver damage (11). However, this toxicity may be due to digallic acid, an impurity that is sometimes found in tannic acid (11).”

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Pasireotide Diaspartate

This page covers Tannic Acid only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Pasireotide Diaspartate page lists 13 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: American Hellebore (major), Arsenic (major), Cesium (major), Ephedra (major) and Grapefruit (major).

By severity: 6 major · 7 moderate.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Pasireotide Diaspartate page

“All 13 supplements on this page raise the same concern with pasireotide (Signifor), a drug for Cushing's disease that can itself lengthen the QT interval, the electrical reset time between heartbeats. Stack another QT-prolonging ingredient on top and the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm goes up, so treat these combinations with real care.”

About Tannic Acid

What is Tannic Acid?

  • Minor skin irritation and weeping rashes
  • Sore throat and mouth sores
  • Minor burns and blisters
  • Astringent for skin
  • Hemorrhoids

Tannic acid is a plant-derived astringent used mostly on the skin and in the mouth to dry out and tighten tissue. There is some traditional and topical use, but high-quality evidence for most uses is limited, and it can be harmful if too much is absorbed, especially on broken skin or burns.

Tannins extracted from plant sources such as oak galls, bark, and certain seeds and leaves · Topical powders and solutions, throat lozenges, gargles, suppositories, and some over-the-counter skin products

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

Tannic Acid: dosing

There is no well-established standard dose of tannic acid for supplement use. The amount varies widely depending on the product and how it is used (for example, a skin solution versus a lozenge).The safest approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not apply it to large areas of broken or burned skin.

What Is Pasireotide Injection Used For?
