Yohimbe - Aspirin, Caffeine, Dihydrocodeine Bitartrate Interaction

Interaction Details

Aspirin, Caffeine, Dihydrocodeine Bitartrate is classified as belonging to the following category: Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, yohimbe might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that yohimbine, a constituent of yohimbe bark, inhibits CYP2D6 enzyme activity.

Interaction Details

Aspirin, Caffeine, Dihydrocodeine Bitartrate is classified as belonging to the following category: Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, combining yohimbe bark with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs might have additive effects; however, this has not been reported in clinical research.
Research in healthy adults shows that taking yohimbine, a constituent of yohimbe bark, in doses of 8 mg or more, seems to inhibit platelet aggregation in vitro by binding to the alpha-2 adrenoceptor. The effects of yohimbe bark itself are unclear; yohimbe bark contains 0.6% to 1.38% yohimbine, but it is unclear how much is absorbed.

Interaction Details

Aspirin, Caffeine, Dihydrocodeine Bitartrate is classified as belonging to the following category: Stimulant Drugs

Theoretically, taking yohimbe with stimulant drugs can have additive effects.
Yohimbine, a constituent of yohimbe, has sympathomimetic effects and increases blood pressure in a dose-dependent manner. Theoretically, taking yohimbe with stimulant drugs can have additive stimulant and hypertensive effects.
