Drug & supplement interaction

Wine + Regorafenib

Regorafenib brand name: Stivarga.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Wine and Regorafenib 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.

Wine and Regorafenib

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 Regorafenib and Wine 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 Regorafenib

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Regorafenib is filed under 2 classifications — cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Wine has documented interactions with 37 drug classes — the most serious being aspirin (major), cisapride (propulsid) (major) and cns depressants (major) — and none of Regorafenib’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 Wine and Regorafenib 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. 2 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

    Listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Regorafenib, and in voluntary FDA adverse-event reports. Read the label on DailyMed ›

Reported for Wine but not commonly for Regorafenib: a heart attack, dependence or withdrawal symptoms, an irregular heartbeat and mood changes or irritability.

Effects for Regorafenib come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Wine come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 11,442 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Regorafenib that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

Special populations

Wine in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Likely Unsafe

When used orally; alcohol is a teratogen. Use during pregnancy is associated with significant risk of spontaneous abortion, fetal alcohol syndrome, and developmental and behavioral dysfunction in infants and children exposed to alcohol in utero; avoid using.

Lactation Likely Unsafe

When used orally. Alcohol is secreted in breast milk. Chronic use can cause abnormal psychomotor development and disrupt the infant's sleep-wake pattern. Alcohol also seems to reduce milk production; avoid using.

Overlapping uses

What Regorafenib Is Prescribed For, and What Wine Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Regorafenib is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Wine is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Regorafenib is prescribed for: Stivarga is approved to treat three types of advanced cancer in adults. It is used for metastatic colorectal cancer (cancer that has spread) after prior chemotherapy and targeted therapy; for locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) after two previous treatments; and for hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) after treatment with sorafenib. All three uses are specific to Stivarga tablets taken by mouth. It is intended for patients whose cancer has progressed despite earlier lines of therapy.

Wine has been studied for:

  • Cancer studied, not established Wine has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Wine for cancer

    It is unclear if wine consumption is beneficial for preventing cancer or cancer-related mortality. The available evidence suggests variable effects depending on cancer type.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Regorafenib on your own; if you are taking Wine for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Regorafenib

This page covers Wine only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Regorafenib page lists 138 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Grapefruit (major), St. John's Wort (major), Acacia Rigidula (moderate) and Adrafinil (moderate).

By severity: 3 major · 94 moderate · 41 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Regorafenib page

“Regorafenib (Stivarga) is a targeted oral cancer therapy, and with a drug like this the goal is keeping its blood level inside a fairly tight window, so the 138 supplements and herbs on this page deserve real respect. Nearly all of them, 121 in total, can shift how the liver enzyme CYP3A4 processes the drug, nudging its level up or down.”

About Wine

What is Wine?

  • Social and relaxation use
  • Heart health (popular belief)
  • Antioxidant intake
  • Aiding digestion (traditional use)
  • Culinary flavoring

Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes and is not a true dietary supplement or medicine. Despite popular claims about heart benefits, the alcohol it contains carries real health risks, and no amount of drinking can be recommended to improve health. If you drink, do so in moderation, and avoid alcohol entirely during pregnancy or if you have certain medical conditions.

Fermented grapes (or other fruit) · Red wine, white wine, rosé, sparkling wine, fortified wine

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

Wine: dosing

There is no medicinal or supplement "dose" for wine, and no amount is recommended to improve health. If a person chooses to drink, public health guidelines generally define moderate drinking as up to one standard drink per day for women and up to two for men, with a standard drink being about 5 ounces of wine.Less is always better when it comes to alcohol, and not drinking at all is the safest choice.

Taking Wine and Regorafenib Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Wine with Regorafenib?
We do not list a known interaction between Wine and Regorafenib. 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 Wine and Regorafenib have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 5 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.
Are Wine and Regorafenib used for the same thing?
They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together. This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Wine in each. That is a conversation for your prescriber, especially if Regorafenib is being adjusted to a target.
How was the Wine and Regorafenib combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Regorafenib is filed under 2 classifications, and Wine has documented interactions with 37 drug classes — none of Regorafenib'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 Wine interact with any other medications?
Yes. Wine has 926 documented drug interactions in our database — Regorafenib 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 Regorafenib interact with any supplements?
Yes. Regorafenib has documented interactions with 138 supplements in our database — Wine is not one of them. The Regorafenib interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
