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.

Voriconazole (Vfend) is a heavy-hitter antifungal, usually prescribed for dangerous infections like invasive aspergillosis, and its list of 205 interacting supplements includes six rated major, enough that anyone on this drug should read those entries before touching a supplement bottle. Most interactions run through the liver enzymes that clear voriconazole, so a supplement can push its blood level toward toxicity or drop it below what the infection needs. St. John's wort does the latter and grapefruit the former, both rated major, while alcohol, beer and wine included, adds strain to a liver this drug already works hard.

The 159 moderate and 40 minor entries mostly echo those same enzyme pathways at lower stakes. About twenty add to sun sensitivity, worth knowing since voriconazole itself makes skin burn faster, and a few absorbent or bulky products can blunt oral absorption, so keep them well separated from each dose.

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

Voriconazole sits in 11 interaction categories. Open any one to see what the group means:

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates 121 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.

Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates 64 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.

Voriconazole & Supplements: Common Questions

What supplements interact with Voriconazole?
More than you might expect — 205 in total, though they are far from equal: 6 are rated major, 159 moderate, and 40 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, Siberian Cocklebur, Activated Charcoal.
Which Voriconazole supplement interactions are the most serious?
The 6 major-rated combinations — led by Grapefruit, Siberian Cocklebur, Activated Charcoal, Beer and St. John's Wort — 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 Voriconazole?
Usually yes — most people on Voriconazole 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 Vfend have the same supplement interactions as Voriconazole?
Yes — Vfend all contain Voriconazole, 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 Voriconazole and my other medications?
This page covers Voriconazole against supplements and herbal ingredients. Checking Voriconazole against your other prescription or OTC medications is a different tool — our drug interaction checker covers that side.
