Tansy Ragwort + Carfilzomib

Carfilzomib brand name: Kyprolis.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 27, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tansy Ragwort and Carfilzomib 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.

Interaction report

Tansy Ragwort and Carfilzomib

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 Carfilzomib and Tansy Ragwort 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.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Carfilzomib

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Carfilzomib is filed under a single classification — hepatotoxic drugs. Tansy Ragwort has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inducers (moderate) — and none of Carfilzomib’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

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Tansy Ragwort and Carfilzomib 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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Carfilzomib page

“Every supplement on this page shares a single concern with carfilzomib (Kyprolis): extra strain on the liver. Carfilzomib is an IV chemotherapy for multiple myeloma, and that treatment is demanding enough without an herb quietly injuring the organ that has to keep pace.”

About Tansy Ragwort

What is Tansy Ragwort?

  • Traditional wound and skin washes
  • Folk remedy for sore throat (gargle)
  • Topical poultice for joint or muscle aches
  • Historical use for menstrual complaints

Tansy ragwort is a toxic weed that contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which can seriously damage the liver. It is not recommended as a supplement or home remedy, and there is no reliable evidence that it safely treats any condition. Avoid taking it internally and talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using any herbal product.

Jacobaea vulgaris · Asteraceae · Aerial parts (leaves, flowers, stems) · Rarely sold as a supplement; historically used as a tea, poultice, or topical wash

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

Tansy Ragwort: dosing

Taking Tansy Ragwort and Carfilzomib Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Tansy Ragwort with Carfilzomib?

Do Tansy Ragwort and Carfilzomib have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 3 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other.

How was the Tansy Ragwort and Carfilzomib combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Carfilzomib is filed under 1 classification, and Tansy Ragwort has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Carfilzomib's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Tansy Ragwort interact with any other medications?
Yes. Tansy Ragwort has 87 documented drug interactions in our database — Carfilzomib is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
