Wood Sorrel and Vorapaxar

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 Vorapaxar and Wood Sorrel 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.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Wood Sorrel at all — not against Vorapaxar, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

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.

What Wood Sorrel Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Vorapaxar. It is the side-effect record for Wood Sorrel on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Wood Sorrel, this list is the first place to look.

  • Passing urine more often Additional detail

    “There is currently a limited amount of information on the adverse effects of wood sorrel. A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.

    Most Common Adverse Effects:

    Orally: Dermatitis, diarrhea, nausea, and polyuria.”

    Wood Sorrel · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in dermatitis.

  • Diarrhea / Nausea Additional detail

    “Orally, consuming excessive amounts of wood sorrel can cause diarrhea, nausea, and other gastrointestinal symptoms. Wood sorrel contains oxalic acid, which is thought to be responsible for these adverse effects (6,17).”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Wood Sorrel — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Vorapaxar’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Vorapaxar column appears here.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Vorapaxar page

“Vorapaxar (Zontivity) keeps platelets from clumping after a heart attack or clogged leg arteries, so it raises bleeding risk by design, and adding supplements calls for real caution. Of the 282 ingredients on file, 202 can thin the blood further, stacking their antiplatelet effects on the drug's.”

About Wood Sorrel

What is Wood Sorrel?

  • Digestive upset
  • Mouth and throat soothing
  • Mild diuretic
  • Fever and thirst relief
  • Wound and skin care (traditional)

Wood sorrel is a small, sour-tasting wild plant used in folk medicine and as a tangy edible green. There is very little modern research to support any health use, and its naturally high oxalic acid content means it should be used in small amounts. People with kidney problems, gout, or who are pregnant should be especially cautious.

Oxalis acetosella · Oxalidaceae · Leaves and aerial parts · Fresh leaves, tea, tincture, juice

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

Wood Sorrel: dosing

There is no established or standardized medicinal dose for wood sorrel. It has been used traditionally as fresh leaves, a tea, or a juice, but no reliable guidelines exist for how much is safe or effective.Because of its oxalic acid content, it is wise to keep any use to small amounts and avoid taking it regularly.

About Vorapaxar

What Is Vorapaxar Used For?

Brand name: Zontivity

Zontivity (vorapaxar) is used to lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, cardiovascular death, and the need for urgent procedures to open blocked arteries. It is prescribed for people who have already had a heart attack or who have peripheral arterial disease (PAD) — a condition where arteries outside the heart become narrowed or blocked.
