HelloPharmacist Bottom Line
Our Pharmacist Explains
What is this? The interaction data in the HelloPharmacist supplement database is licensed from Natural Medicines Pro by TRC Healthcare (Therapeutic Research). HelloPharmacist pharmacists often add our own analysis and context on top of that licensed data — such as this Bottom Line summary and the notes on individual interaction pages — and any such commentary is noted as ours.

Aliskiren (Tekturna) has one job, keeping blood pressure down, and most of this list pulls on that same rope. Of the 227 supplements with an interaction on file, 119 have blood-pressure effects of their own, stacking with the drug until pressure drops too far (fish oil is a common one) or pushing back against it. Another 121 change how the liver enzyme CYP3A4 handles medicines, raising or lowering how much aliskiren actually reaches your blood. Six are rated major, and those deserve real care before you pair them with this drug.

Grapefruit is the standout, since it can raise drug levels, while St. John's wort can quietly drain them. Most of the other entries, 180 rated moderate and 41 minor, are milder versions of the blood-pressure story. One small group of 17, activated charcoal among them, can soak up pills swallowed nearby, so keep those well separated from your dose.

What Severity, Likelihood & Evidence Mean

Severity — How Serious It Can Be

  • Major. Clinically significant; generally best avoided, or used only under direct professional supervision.
  • Moderate. May need monitoring, a dose adjustment, or separating the times you take each one.
  • Minor. Generally not clinically significant, but still worth noting and mentioning to your pharmacist.
  • No known interaction. Checked against our sources with nothing documented — not the same as proven safety.

Likelihood — How Well It’s Documented

  • Likely. Well-controlled human studies have demonstrated the likely existence of this interaction
  • Probable. Interaction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports.
  • Possible. Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists
  • Unlikely. Interaction has been demonstrated in animal or in lab research but has been shown not to occur in humans.

Where This Data Comes From

  • Interaction records are evidence-graded and sourced from the Natural Medicines database (TRC Healthcare), the same reference used by pharmacists and hospitals.
  • Each entry links to a full report with the clinical detail, likelihood, evidence level, and citations for that exact combination.
  • Content is reviewed by licensed HelloPharmacist pharmacists — see our data sources and editorial standards.

How Does Our Interaction Checker Work?

Behind every verdict on this page is a category system. Our source database doesn’t document supplement interactions drug-by-drug — it documents them against groups of medications that behave the same way (for example, “drugs processed by the CYP3A4 liver enzyme” or “blood-thinning medications”).

So the check works in three steps: (1) Aliskiren is classified into the pharmacology categories it belongs to, (2) every supplement interaction documented against any of those categories is inherited by Aliskiren, and (3) each ingredient keeps its own severity, likelihood, and evidence grades from the underlying record. That’s why one supplement can carry several records for one drug — it may interact through more than one category.

Aliskiren sits in 4 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates 121 ingredients

A drug-metabolism group: these medications are processed by the named liver enzyme (a cytochrome P450). Supplements that speed this enzyme up or slow it down can lower or raise the medication's levels in your body.

121 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Aliskiren through this category.

Antihypertensive Drugs 119 ingredients

Blood-pressure-lowering medications. Supplements that lower (or raise) blood pressure can amplify or fight these drugs.

119 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Aliskiren through this category.

Oral Drugs 17 ingredients

A pharmacology grouping from our source database: medications in this group share a property that certain supplements are known to interact with, so an interaction documented for the group applies to every drug in it.

17 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Aliskiren through this category.

Aliskiren (Tekturna, Rasilez) 2 ingredients

A pharmacology grouping from our source database: medications in this group share a property that certain supplements are known to interact with, so an interaction documented for the group applies to every drug in it.

2 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Aliskiren through this category.

Aliskiren & Supplements: Common Questions

What supplements interact with Aliskiren?
In our interaction database, 227 supplement and herbal ingredients have an interaction with Aliskiren on file — 6 rated major, 180 moderate, and 41 minor. That number sounds scarier than it is: severity matters far more than the count, which is why the list on this page is ranked instead of alphabetical. Start at the top. The highest-ranked right now: American Hellebore, Grapefruit, Tyramine.
Which Aliskiren supplement interactions are the most serious?
The 6 major-rated combinations — led by American Hellebore, Grapefruit, Tyramine, Activated Charcoal and American Mistletoe — deserve real caution: these are the ones generally best avoided, or used only with your prescriber watching. If you take any of them today, don't panic and don't stop anything abruptly — call your pharmacist first. Jump to the ranked list.
Can I take vitamins or supplements while on Aliskiren?
That depends entirely on which supplement. The honest answer for Aliskiren is in the ranked list above — and if what you take is a combination product with a dozen ingredients, don't check them one by one: photograph the label with our scanner and we'll check the whole thing at once. Try the label scanner or the interaction checker.
Do brands like Tekturna have the same supplement interactions as Aliskiren?
Yes — Tekturna all contain Aliskiren, so everything on this page applies to them equally. Interactions belong to the active drug, never to the brand on the box; the same is true of generics.
Where do these interaction ratings come from?
Every rating comes from the Natural Medicines database — the same evidence-graded reference pharmacists and hospitals use — and each interaction carries three separate grades: severity (how bad it can be), likelihood (how well it's documented in studies and case reports), and an evidence level. Our pharmacists review the content; we never let an AI decide an interaction. See how to read the ratings and our editorial policy.
Does Aliskiren deplete any vitamins or nutrients?
It might — Aliskiren has 1 reported nutrient-depletion association in the research literature, which is a different question from interactions: instead of a supplement changing the drug, the drug may lower a nutrient over time. See the Aliskiren nutrient depletion report for the specifics and what to discuss with your pharmacist.
What about Aliskiren and my other medications?
This page covers Aliskiren against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Aliskiren against your other prescription or OTC medications is a different tool — our drug interaction checker covers that side. Head to the drug–drug interaction checker, or read the full Aliskiren drug information.
