Drug & supplement interaction

Tansy + Ixazomib Citrate

Ixazomib Citrate brand name: Ninlaro.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 13, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tansy and Ixazomib Citrate 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 label for Ixazomib Citrate states a food rule worth keeping to, and 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 and Ixazomib Citrate

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 Ixazomib Citrate and Tansy 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 Ixazomib Citrate

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Ixazomib Citrate is filed under 3 classifications — hepatotoxic drugs, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Tansy has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being alcohol (ethanol) (major) — and none of Ixazomib Citrate’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 and Ixazomib Citrate 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

    “There is limited reliable information available about the adverse effects of tansy. Orally, varieties of tansy that contain the toxic constituent thujone have been reported to cause thujone toxicity. Symptoms of thujone toxicity include rapid pulse, irregular heartbeat, tachypnea, severe gastroenteritis, vomiting, dilated pupils, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and death (4,6,77012,77014,77015).”

How to take them

Some Ixazomib Citrate Products Have a Food Rule — Tansy Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Ixazomib Citrate says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Tansy included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Ixazomib Citrate on its own and move Tansy to a meal later in the day.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Ixazomib Citrate products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

( 2.1 ) Dose should be taken at least one hour before or at least two hours after food.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Ixazomib Citrate — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Ixazomib Citrate page

“Anyone taking ixazomib citrate (Ninlaro) for multiple myeloma should give this list real weight, because a supplement that shifts this chemotherapy's blood level can shift how well it works against the cancer. Of the 168 ingredients on file, 121 act on CYP3A4, the enzyme that clears ixazomib.”

About Tansy

What is Tansy?

  • Intestinal worms and parasites
  • Digestive upset
  • Menstrual problems
  • Insect repellent
  • Skin and wound care (traditional)

Tansy is a traditional bitter herb that contains thujone, a compound that can be toxic in higher amounts. Because of real safety concerns and very limited modern evidence, most people should avoid taking tansy internally, and it should never be used during pregnancy.

Tanacetum vulgare · Asteraceae · Flowers, leaves, and essential oil · Tea, dried herb, tincture, essential oil

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

Tansy: dosing

There is no established safe or standardized dose of tansy. Never use the concentrated essential oil internally, and follow all product labels carefully. In most cases, a safer alternative is the better choice.

Taking Tansy and Ixazomib Citrate Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Tansy with Ixazomib Citrate?
We do not list a known interaction between Tansy and Ixazomib Citrate. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Do Tansy and Ixazomib Citrate 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. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.
Should I take Tansy and Ixazomib Citrate at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Ixazomib Citrate says to take it on an empty stomach, and supplements are usually taken with a meal — so taking them together at breakfast is the easy mistake. Where that applies, keep Ixazomib Citrate on its own and move Tansy to a meal later in the day. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient, so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
How was the Tansy and Ixazomib Citrate combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Ixazomib Citrate is filed under 3 classifications, and Tansy has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Ixazomib Citrate'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 interact with any other medications?
Yes. Tansy has 1 documented drug interaction in our database — Ixazomib Citrate is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Ixazomib Citrate interact with any supplements?
Yes. Ixazomib Citrate has documented interactions with 168 supplements in our database — Tansy is not one of them. The Ixazomib Citrate interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
