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.

Crisaborole (Eucrisa) is an ointment for eczema, and its supplement interaction list is short: three ingredients, none rated major. All three matter for the same reason. They are things people put on their skin, and anything that changes how skin absorbs medicine can change how crisaborole behaves where you apply it. DMSO is the one to know, since animal and limited human research suggests it can pull topical drugs deeper into the skin, which could mean more absorbed and more irritation than intended. Most people can work around this once they know what to watch.

Turpentine oil, the other moderate entry, carries a similar theoretical absorption concern from animal studies. Alchemilla, the lone minor one, caused local irritation in a small trial, and eczema-prone skin does not need extra irritants. Keep these products away from treated areas, or space applications apart, and you have handled the entire list.

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

Crisaborole sits in 1 interaction category. Open any one to see what the group means:

Topical Drugs 3 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.

3 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Crisaborole through this category.

What supplements interact with Crisaborole?
In our interaction database, 3 supplement and herbal ingredients have an interaction with Crisaborole on file — 0 rated major, 2 moderate, and 1 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: Dimethylsulfoxide (dmso), Turpentine Oil, Alchemilla.
Which Crisaborole supplement interactions are the most serious?
None of the Crisaborole supplement interactions on file are currently rated major. The most significant are the 2 moderate-rated ones — combinations that may need monitoring, a dose adjustment, or separated timing. Still worth a quick look through the ranked list for anything you take daily. Jump to the ranked list.
Can I take vitamins or supplements while on Crisaborole?
That depends entirely on which supplement. The honest answer for Crisaborole 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 Eucrisa have the same supplement interactions as Crisaborole?
Yes — Eucrisa all contain Crisaborole, 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 Crisaborole and my other medications?
This page covers Crisaborole against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Crisaborole against your other prescription or OTC medications is a different tool — our drug interaction checker covers that side.
