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.

Amphetamine sulfate (Benzedrine, Evekeo ODT) is a prescription stimulant, and most of what earns this list genuine respect is more stimulation piled on top of it. The riskiest entries, ephedra chief among them, add to its effects on heart rate and blood pressure, and even everyday caffeine, whether from coffee, tea, or cola nut, pushes in the same direction at a milder level. This is a page to read carefully before mixing anything with the medication.

Two other patterns run through the rest. A large group of herbs shares the liver pathway (CYP2D6) that helps clear amphetamine, so some can slow its breakdown and nudge its level upward. A smaller set interferes with the absorption of anything swallowed, activated charcoal most seriously, so keep those well apart from your dose. Of the 115 ingredients on file, 91 rate moderate and 19 minor, and four of the five majors are stimulant combinations.

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) Amphetamine Sulfate is classified into the pharmacology categories it belongs to, (2) every supplement interaction documented against any of those categories is inherited by Amphetamine Sulfate, 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.

Amphetamine Sulfate sits in 5 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:

Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates 60 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.

60 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Amphetamine Sulfate through this category.

Stimulant Drugs 44 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.

44 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Amphetamine Sulfate 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 Amphetamine Sulfate through this category.

Seizure Threshold Lowering Drugs 6 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.

6 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Amphetamine Sulfate through this category.

Amphetamines 4 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.

4 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Amphetamine Sulfate through this category.

Amphetamine Sulfate & Supplements: Common Questions

What supplements interact with Amphetamine Sulfate?
Our database currently documents 115 ingredients with a known Amphetamine Sulfate interaction (5 major, 91 moderate, 19 minor). The practical move: scan the major group first, then look up the exact supplements you take rather than reading all 115. The highest-ranked right now: Activated Charcoal, Ephedra, Peyote.
Which Amphetamine Sulfate supplement interactions are the most serious?
The 5 major-rated combinations — led by Activated Charcoal, Ephedra, Peyote, Rauvolfia Vomitoria and Sida Cordifolia — 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 Amphetamine Sulfate?
Plenty of supplements coexist fine with Amphetamine Sulfate; a shorter list does not. Rather than memorizing it, check the specific ingredients on your labels — the ranked list above covers every one we've checked, and multi-ingredient products can be checked label-by-label with our scanner. Try the label scanner or the interaction checker.
Do brands like Benzedrine have the same supplement interactions as Amphetamine Sulfate?
Yes — Benzedrine, Evekeo ODT all contain Amphetamine Sulfate, 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.
What about Amphetamine Sulfate and my other medications?
This page covers Amphetamine Sulfate against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Amphetamine Sulfate 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.
