What is this page for?
One answer, for one medication: what supplements and herbal products interact with Promazine? Every vitamin, herb, and supplement ingredient we’ve checked against it is on this page, ranked by severity, each linking to the full report for that exact pair.
This page covers supplement interactions only — to check Promazine against your other medications, use the drug–drug interaction checker. Educational information from our licensed clinical databases, not medical advice. Our editorial policy
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.Promazine (Sparine) is an older antipsychotic in the phenothiazine family, and the 90 supplements and herbs on this page deserve real attention before you add any of them. The biggest cluster, 30 ingredients, shares promazine's anticholinergic side effects, so pairing them can pile on dry mouth, constipation, and confusion; henbane carries a major rating for that reason. Another 20 can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight on top of what promazine already does, and a small group, including Indian snakeroot, may deepen its tranquilizing effect.
Five entries rate major, and those are where I would start reading, with 61 moderate and 24 minor. If you take one of these daily, bring it up with your pharmacist before your next refill. Activated charcoal earns its major rating differently, since it can soak up promazine in your gut and cut how much reaches your blood, so space the two well apart.

Full Nutmeg + Promazine answerWhat 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) Promazine is classified into the pharmacology categories it belongs to, (2) every supplement interaction documented against any of those categories is inherited by Promazine, 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.
Promazine sits in 5 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:
Anticholinergic Drugs 30 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.
30 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Promazine through this category.
Photosensitizing Drugs 20 ingredients
Medications that make skin more sun-sensitive. Supplements with the same property can compound it.
