No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Teazle and Liotrix 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 Liotrix states a food rule worth keeping to.

Teazle and Liotrix

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 Liotrix and Teazle 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.

Teazle overall Not established Human safety data are very limited, so its safety profile is not well established.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Liotrix

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Liotrix is filed under 2 classifications — thyroid hormone, oral drugs. Teazle has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — the most serious being anticholinergic drugs (moderate) and cholinergic drugs (moderate) — and none of Liotrix’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 Liotrix’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Teazle. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Liotrix’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A change in thyroid levels Worth acting on
  • Bone thinning Worth acting on
  • Muscle weakness Worth acting on
  • A heart attack Worth acting on
  • Heart failure Worth acting on
  • Wheezing Worth acting on
  • Seizures Worth acting on
  • Chest pain Worth acting on
  • Shortness of breath Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 32 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Liotrix. Read the label on DailyMed › Teazle’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Teazle side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Teazle has no side effects.

How to take them

Some Liotrix Products Have a Food Rule — Teazle Should Not Break It

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

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 Liotrix page

“Liotrix (Euthroid) combines both thyroid hormones, and since steady hormone levels are the entire point of treatment, this list deserves a slow, serious read. Most entries fall into two camps: twenty-one ingredients act on the hormone itself, some boosting it and others blunting it, while another seventeen change how well the dose is a…”

About Teazle

What is Teazle?

Teazle
  • Lyme disease (folk use)
  • Joint and muscle pain
  • Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
  • Skin conditions such as psoriasis
  • Wound healing

Teazle (Dipsacus fullonum) is a spiky plant used in traditional and folk medicine, most notably as a tincture marketed for Lyme disease and for joint pain and skin problems. There is very little high-quality human research to support any of these uses, so its benefits remain unproven. Talk with a pharmacist or doctor before trying it, and never use it to replace standard treatment for serious infections like Lyme disease.

Dipsacus fullonum · Caprifoliaceae · Root, leaves, and aerial parts · Tincture, tea, capsules, dried root, topical preparations

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

Teazle: dosing

There is no established or standardized dose for teazle. Dosing in folk traditions varies widely, and products such as tinctures and capsules differ in strength.If you choose to try a teazle product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

About Liotrix

What Is Liotrix Used For?

Brand names: Euthroid 3, Euthroid 1/2, Euthroid 1

  • Liotrix is used to treat hypothyroidism (a condition that results when the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone). Symptoms of hypothyroidism include lack of energy, depression, constipation, weight gain, hair loss, dry skin, dry coarse hair, muscle cramps, decreased concentration, aches and pains, swelling of the legs, and increased sensitivity to cold. When taken correctly, liotrix can reverse these symptoms. Liotrix is also used to treat goiter (enlarged thyroid gland). This medication is also used to test for hyperthyroidism (a condition where the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone). Liotrix is in a class of medications called thyroid agents. It works by supplying the thyroid hormones normally produced by the body.

Taking Teazle and Liotrix Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Teazle with Liotrix?
We do not list a known interaction between Teazle and Liotrix. 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.
Should I take Teazle and Liotrix at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Liotrix 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 Liotrix on its own and move Teazle 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 Teazle and Liotrix combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Liotrix is filed under 2 classifications, and Teazle has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — none of Liotrix'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 Teazle interact with any other medications?
Yes. Teazle has 219 documented drug interactions in our database — Liotrix 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 Liotrix interact with any supplements?
