No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tarragon and Propranolol 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.

Tarragon and Propranolol

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 Propranolol and Tarragon 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 Propranolol

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Propranolol is filed under 9 classifications — including beta-blockers, cytochrome p450 2c19 (cyp2c19) substrates, antihypertensive drugs. Tarragon has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate), cns depressants (moderate) and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois) (moderate) — and none of Propranolol’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.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Propranolol

This page covers Tarragon only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Propranolol page lists 236 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), American Hellebore (major), American Mistletoe (major), Indian Snakeroot (major) and Tyramine (major).

By severity: 5 major · 194 moderate · 37 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Propranolol page

“Propranolol (Inderal) slows the heart and lowers blood pressure, which is exactly why its 236-ingredient interaction list deserves genuine care. Five entries rate major, and those are the ones to understand first.”

About Tarragon

What is Tarragon?

Tarragon
  • Digestive upset
  • Appetite stimulation
  • Sleep and mild restlessness
  • Toothache and oral discomfort
  • Blood sugar support (preliminary)
  • Culinary flavoring

Tarragon is a flavorful culinary herb that has been used in traditional medicine for digestion, sleep, and other complaints, but solid human evidence for any health benefit is lacking. Amounts used in cooking are generally considered safe, while concentrated extracts and the essential oil should be used cautiously because tarragon contains estragole, a compound studied for possible safety concerns. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using tarragon as a supplement.

Artemisia dracunculus · Asteraceae · Leaves and essential oil · Fresh or dried herb (culinary), tea, essential oil, extracts, capsules

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

Tarragon: dosing

There is no well-established medicinal dose for tarragon. As a food, it is used freely as a seasoning. As a tea, it is usually made by steeping a small amount of dried or fresh leaves in hot water.For capsules, extracts, or essential oil, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed them. Because product strengths vary and estragole content can differ, it is best to use these products only with guidance from a pharmacist or doctor. Never take the essential oil internally unless specifically directed by a qualified healthcare professional.

About Propranolol (Cardiovascular)

What Is Propranolol (Cardiovascular) Used For?

Brand names: Inderal LA, Inderal, Angilol, Syprol, Inderal Injection, Half-Inderal LA, Bedranol SR, Half Beta Prograne, Beta Prograne, Lopranol LA, Slo-Pro, InnoPran XL

This intravenous (IV) form of propranolol is used in hospital or clinical settings to treat dangerous heart rhythm problems. It is generally reserved for life-threatening arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) or those that occur during anesthesia.

Specific conditions it treats include fast heart rates coming from the upper chambers of the heart (supraventricular tachycardia), certain arrhythmias caused by digitalis toxicity, dangerous ventricular rhythms that haven't responded to other treatments, and fast heart rates caused by excess adrenaline-like substances during surgery.
