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.

Anyone taking enasidenib (Idhifa) for acute myeloid leukemia should treat this supplement list with genuine care, beginning with the major-rated entries: grapefruit, St. John's wort, and activated charcoal. Grapefruit can raise enasidenib levels by blocking a key liver enzyme, St. John's wort revs that enzyme up and can drain the drug from the body, and charcoal can soak up a dose before it is absorbed.

Nearly everything else is a quieter version of the same story, herbs and foods that speed up or slow down the enzymes handling this drug, nudging blood levels one way or the other. A smaller cluster, mostly fibers and charcoals, blunts absorption, so space those well apart from your dose. Guessing wrong on levels with a leukemia drug carries real cost, so run new supplements past your pharmacist. For the record, that comes to 3 major, 156 moderate, and 44 minor entries across 203 ingredients.

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

Enasidenib sits in 15 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates 121 ingredients

Enasidenib & Supplements: Common Questions

What supplements interact with Enasidenib?
More than you might expect — 203 in total, though they are far from equal: 3 are rated major, 156 moderate, and 44 minor. The ranked list on this page puts the ones that genuinely matter first, and every entry opens a full report on that exact pair. The highest-ranked right now: Grapefruit, Activated Charcoal, St. John's Wort.
Which Enasidenib supplement interactions are the most serious?
Focus on the major group: Grapefruit, Activated Charcoal and St. John's Wort. A major rating means the combination can be clinically significant, not that harm is guaranteed — but it's exactly the kind of thing to run past your pharmacist before your next dose, not after. Jump to the ranked list.
Can I take vitamins or supplements while on Enasidenib?
Usually yes — most people on Enasidenib can take most supplements. The catch is the exceptions, and they aren't always the exotic ones (St. John's Wort trips up more prescriptions than almost anything sold next to it). Look up each ingredient you actually take in the list above, and treat "no known interaction" as a green-ish light, not a guarantee. Try the label scanner or the interaction checker.
Do brands like Idhifa have the same supplement interactions as Enasidenib?
Yes — Idhifa all contain Enasidenib, 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 Enasidenib and my other medications?
This page covers Enasidenib against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Enasidenib 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 Enasidenib drug information.
