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.

A person taking Ascriptin Codeine #2 for pain is getting aspirin, codeine, and two antacids in a single tablet, and the 339 supplement interactions on file deserve real attention before adding anything alongside it. Most of the list splits two ways. Roughly 200 ingredients can raise bleeding risk on top of aspirin's blood-thinning effect, and nearly 80 more deepen codeine's sedation, with alcohol and kava among the 11 rated major. Those major entries are the ones to understand first.

The antacid components create a quieter issue too. Charcoal products and bulky fibers like glucomannan can blunt how much of the whole tablet gets absorbed, so space them well apart from each dose. Another 60 ingredients slow the enzyme that processes codeine, which can push its effects higher. Most entries sit at moderate (286, plus 42 minor), but the sedation and bleeding combinations carry the sharpest edge here.

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) Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide is classified into the pharmacology categories it belongs to, (2) every supplement interaction documented against any of those categories is inherited by Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide, 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.

Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide sits in 14 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs 202 ingredients

Blood-thinning medications. Supplements with their own effects on clotting or platelets can add up with these drugs and raise bleeding risk.

Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide & Supplements: Common Questions

What supplements interact with Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide?
In our interaction database, 339 supplement and herbal ingredients have an interaction with Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide on file — 11 rated major, 286 moderate, and 42 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: Beer, Siberian Cocklebur, Wine.
Which Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide supplement interactions are the most serious?
The 11 major-rated combinations — led by Beer, Siberian Cocklebur, Wine, 1,4-butanediol and Activated Charcoal — 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 Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide?
That depends entirely on which supplement. The honest answer for Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide 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 Ascriptin Codeine #2 have the same supplement interactions as Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide?
Yes — Ascriptin Codeine #2 all contain Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide, 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 Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide deplete any vitamins or nutrients?
It might — Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide has 9 reported nutrient-depletion associations 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 Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide nutrient depletion report for the specifics and what to discuss with your pharmacist.
What about Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide and my other medications?
This page covers Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Magnesium Hydroxide against your other prescription or OTC medications is a different tool — our drug interaction checker covers that side.
