A medication reference built from the interaction graph. It is not prescribing information — the label and your prescriber are.

What is uncertain

Read off the same rows as above. Nothing here is added that the entry does not itself record.

  • Caution with SSRIs / SNRIs: SSRIs plus NSAIDs sharply raise GI-bleeding risk — a well-documented pairing.
  • Caution with Anticoagulants: Additive bleeding risk plus displacement — a dangerous, common combination.
  • Caution with BP meds: NSAIDs blunt blood-pressure control and stress the kidneys, especially with ACE inhibitors/diuretics.

Interactions

Documented pairings with supplements and medicines. A medicine on this list is a conversation for whoever prescribes it.

  • SSRIs / SNRIsCaution

    SSRIs plus NSAIDs sharply raise GI-bleeding risk — a well-documented pairing.

  • AnticoagulantsCaution

    Additive bleeding risk plus displacement — a dangerous, common combination.

  • BP medsCaution

    NSAIDs blunt blood-pressure control and stress the kidneys, especially with ACE inhibitors/diuretics.

The evidence in words

What it is

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for pain, fever, and inflammation.

How it works

They inhibit COX enzymes, reducing prostaglandins — which also thins the protective stomach lining and affects kidney blood flow.

What it's used for

Pain, fever, inflammatory conditions.

Supplement & drug interactions

NSAIDs has 3 documented interactions mapped below and in the interactions graph. The bleeding theme dominates: NSAIDs plus SSRIs or plus anticoagulants sharply raise GI-bleeding risk, and they blunt blood-pressure control (worse with ACE inhibitors/diuretics). Gut-protective supplements (zinc-carnosine) are studied against NSAID damage.

The rule

This is a medication reference for spotting interactions, not dosing advice. Every change to a supplement stack around a prescription belongs with the person who prescribes it.
