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.

Urea (Ureaphil) is an osmotic diuretic, a drug that pulls fluid out of the body to relieve pressure inside the skull or the eye. Because it works by shifting fluid and blood pressure, this is a list to read with genuine care. Most of the interactions either add to or work against its effect on blood pressure, or compound the fluid and potassium shifts a diuretic already causes, and a few, lithium supplements and yellow dock among them, carry major ratings worth understanding first.

The sharpest risks cluster around the diuretic side. Yellow dock can deepen potassium loss, oleander turns more toxic when potassium runs low, and lithium can build up when its excretion slows. A smaller group, activated charcoal especially, can bind medicines taken by mouth, so keep those spaced well apart from oral doses. For scale, the other 193 entries split into 169 moderate and 24 minor.

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

Urea sits in 3 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:

Antihypertensive Drugs 119 ingredients

Blood-pressure-lowering medications. Supplements that lower (or raise) blood pressure can amplify or fight these drugs.

119 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Urea through this category.

Diuretic Drugs 73 ingredients

Medications that increase fluid loss. Supplements affecting fluid or electrolytes (like potassium) can interact with them.

73 of the supplement ingredients on this page reach Urea 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 Urea through this category.

Related: does Urea deplete any nutrients?

Urea has 7 reported nutrient associations in the research literature — see the Urea nutrient depletion report.

Urea & Supplements: Common Questions

What supplements interact with Urea?
In our interaction database, 200 supplement and herbal ingredients have an interaction with Urea on file — 7 rated major, 169 moderate, and 24 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: American Hellebore, Tyramine, Activated Charcoal.
Which Urea supplement interactions are the most serious?
Focus on the major group: American Hellebore, Tyramine, Activated Charcoal, American Mistletoe and Lithium, among others. 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 Urea?
That depends entirely on which supplement. The honest answer for Urea 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 Ureaphil have the same supplement interactions as Urea?
Yes — Ureaphil all contain Urea, 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 Urea deplete any vitamins or nutrients?
It might — Urea has 7 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 Urea nutrient depletion report for the specifics and what to discuss with your pharmacist.
What about Urea and my other medications?
This page covers Urea against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Urea 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.
