Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product GI Renew (0 - Loose Stools) Capsules. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
The binding action of activated charcoal may be reduced by alcohol.
Details
Alcohol may lower the adsorptive capacity of activated charcoal (12400).
|
Activated charcoal may reduce the clinical effects of oral contraceptives.
Details
Activated charcoal, taken in a dose of 5 grams four times daily for 3 days, may bind to, and reduce the absorption of, oral contraceptives, thereby limiting their effectiveness and increasing the risk of contraceptive failure. However, some clinical research shows that the risk for this interaction is minimal when activated charcoal is taken either 3 hours after or at least 12 hours before oral contraceptives (103192).
|
Activated charcoal reduces systemic exposure to many drugs, including those that undergo enterohepatic recirculation, regardless of the route of administration.
Details
Activated charcoal adsorbs various drugs and may reduce their absorption and/or half-life. Examples of affected drugs include acetaminophen, aminophylline, amiodarone, atenolol, carbamazepine, dapsone, digoxin, disopyramide, fluoxetine, indomethacin, moxifloxacin, nadolol, phenytoin, phenobarbital, piroxicam, quinine, sotalol, theophylline, tricyclic antidepressants, valproate, and verapamil (12392,12400,93198,93602,93610,93612,93613,94730,105543). Avoid co-administration, except after drug overdose.
|
Syrup of ipecac is inactivated by activated charcoal.
Details
Activated charcoal adsorbs and inactivates syrup of ipecac (12394). Avoid co-administration.
|
Concomitant consumption of apple juice can significantly decrease oral absorption and blood levels of aliskiren.
Details
Pharmacokinetic research shows that coadministration of apple juice 200 mL along with aliskiren 150 mg decreases the bioavailability of aliskiren by 63% (17670). Apple juice seems to inhibit organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP), which is involved in drug uptake in the gut, liver, and kidney (7046,94413). It is thought that apple juice might affect OATP for only a short time. Therefore, separating drug administration and consumption of apple juice by at least 4 hours might avoid this interaction (17603,17604).
|
Theoretically, consuming apple juice with antidiabetes drugs might interfere with blood glucose control.
Details
Clinical research suggests that consuming apples or drinking apple juice can raise blood glucose levels, with the effects of drinking apple juice being more significant than consuming apples (31699).
|
Consuming apple juice with antihypertensive drugs might interfere with blood pressure control.
Details
Some clinical evidence suggests that consuming apple and cherry juice can increase blood pressure in elderly patients (31680).
|
Concomitant consumption of apple juice can significantly decrease oral absorption and blood levels of atenolol.
Details
Pharmacokinetic research shows that coadministration of apple juice 600-1200 mL decreases levels of atenolol by 58% to 82% in a dose-dependent manner (17999). Apple juice seems to inhibit organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP), which is involved in drug uptake in the gut, liver, and kidney (7046). It is thought that apple juice might affect OATP for only a short time. Therefore, separating drug administration and consumption of apple juice by at least 4 hours might avoid this interaction (17603,17604).
|
Concomitant consumption of apple juice can significantly decrease oral absorption and blood levels of fexofenadine.
Details
Pharmacokinetic research shows that coadministration of apple juice 400-1200 mL along with fexofenadine 60-120 mg decreases bioavailability of fexofenadine by up to 78% (7046,94413). Coadministration with smaller quantities of apple juice (150 mL or less) does not appear to affect the bioavailability of fexofenadine (94421). Apple juice seems to inhibit organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP), which is involved in drug uptake in the gut, liver, and kidney (7046,94413). It is thought that apple juice might affect OATP for only a short time. Therefore, separating drug administration and consumption of apple juice by at least 4 hours might avoid this interaction (17603,17604).
|
There is some concern that concomitant consumption of apple juice might decrease oral absorption and blood levels of lithium.
Details
In one case report, a patient had an undetectable serum lithium level when lithium citrate was administered with apple juice. When lithium was administered with an alternative beverage, the lithium level became detectable and the patient demonstrated clinical improvement (105342).
|
Concomitant consumption of apple juice can significantly decrease oral absorption and blood levels of OATP substrates.
Details
Research shows that consuming apple juice inhibits OATP, which reduces bioavailability of oral drugs that are substrates of OATP (7046,17605). Fexofenadine, atenolol, and aliskiren are substrates of OATP. Clinical research shows that coadministration of apple juice decreases bioavailability of fexofenadine by up to 78% (7046,94413), aliskiren by 63% (17670), and atenolol by up to 82% (17999). These effects appear to increase with larger quantities of apple juice. It is thought that apple juice might affect OATP for only a short time. Therefore, separating drug administration and consumption of apple juice by at least 4 hours might avoid this interaction (17603,17604).
|
Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
Details
Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce carbamazepine absorption. A preliminary study using blond psyllium reported decreased carbamazepine bioavailability due to binding of the drug to psyllium, as well as reduction of available fluid in the gut for dissolution of the drug (539). This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.
|
Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as digoxin might reduce digoxin absorption and decrease digoxin levels.
Details
|
Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as ethinyl estradiol might alter levels of estradiol.
Details
Concurrent use of blond psyllium with ethinyl estradiol results in a slight increase in the extent of ethinyl estradiol absorption and a slower rate of absorption. This is unlikely to be clinically significant (12421).
|
Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as lithium might reduce lithium absorption.
Details
The fiber in black psyllium might reduce lithium absorption and plasma levels. Some case reports describe a reduction in plasma lithium levels with concomitant administration of blond psyllium. This was reversed when psyllium was stopped (540,92194). This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.
|
Theoretically, black psyllium might increase the therapeutic and adverse effects of metformin.
Details
Animal research shows that concurrent consumption of blond psyllium with metformin slows and increases the absorption of metformin (99433). This interaction may also occur with black psyllium. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after metformin.
|
Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as olanzapine might reduce olanzapine absorption.
Details
The fiber in black psyllium might decrease the absorption of olanzapine. A single case report describes a reduction in the effectiveness of olanzapine when it was concomitantly administered with an unspecified type of psyllium 3 grams orally twice daily. This effect was reversed when psyllium was stopped (106858).
|
Theoretically, psyllium might increase, decrease, or have no effect on the absorption of oral drugs.
Details
Psyllium seems to have variable effects on drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after oral medications. Animal research shows that blond psyllium delays and increases the absorption of metformin and ethinyl estradiol (12421,99433). Case reports and animal research suggest that blond psyllium might reduce absorption of lithium, digoxin, olanzapine, and carbamazepine (12,18,272,93214,106858). Finally, some pharmacokinetic studies show that psyllium does not affect the absorption of levothyroxine or warfarin (12420,103940). Although many of these studies evaluated blond psyllium, the fiber content in black psyllium may have similar effects.

This effect was reversed when psyllium was stopped (106858).
|
Theoretically, psyllium might increase, decrease, or have no effect on the absorption of oral drugs.
Details
Psyllium seems to have variable effects on drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after oral medications. Animal research shows that blond psyllium delays and increases the absorption of metformin and ethinyl estradiol (12421,99433). Conversely, case reports and animal research suggest that blond psyllium might reduce absorption of lithium, digoxin, olanzapine, and carbamazepine (12,18,272,93214,106858). Finally, some pharmacokinetic studies show that psyllium does not affect the absorption of levothyroxine or warfarin (12420,103940).
|
Theoretically, pectin might reduce the absorption of digoxin, potentially decreasing its effectiveness.
Details
A small clinical study shows that taking digoxin with a kaolin-pectin suspension reduces the absorption of digoxin by about 62% (2212). It is unclear if these effects are due to pectin, kaolin, or the combination.
|
Theoretically, pectin might reduce the absorption of lovastatin, potentially decreasing its effectiveness.
Details
Case reports suggest that concomitant use of pectin and lovastatin might reduce the cholesterol-lowering effect of lovastatin, possibly due to reduced intestinal absorption of lovastatin (615).
|
Theoretically, pectin might reduce the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics, potentially decreasing their effectiveness.
Details
A small clinical study shows that taking tetracycline with bismuth subsalicylate in a kaolin-pectin suspension reduces the absorption of tetracycline by about 34% (2213). It is unclear if these effects are due to pectin, kaolin, bismuth subsalicylate, or the combination.
|
Theoretically, skullcap can have additive effects when used with other CNS depressants.

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product GI Renew (0 - Loose Stools) Capsules. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...Orally, activated charcoal is generally well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal pain, black stools, bloating, constipation, and flatulence.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Gastrointestinal obstruction and pulmonary aspiration.
Gastrointestinal ...The most common adverse reactions reported with activated charcoal are gastrointestinal in nature. Constipation appears to be the most frequent complaint, but is typically transient. Black stools, abdominal pain, bloating, and flatulence have also been reported (12392,12398,93611,103193). Rarely, activated charcoal may lead to gastrointestinal obstruction (12392).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Rarely, pulmonary aspiration has been reported in patients taking activated charcoal orally. This may happen if activated charcoal is regurgitated or if a misplaced nasogastric tube delivers activated charcoal to the lungs rather than the stomach (12392).
General
...Orally, apple fruit is well tolerated.
Apple seeds, which contain cyanide, may cause serious adverse effects when consumed in large amounts.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Bloating, flatulence.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. Ingestion of large amounts of apple seeds may cause cyanide poisoning, leading to death.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, apple products, including whole apples, apple puree, and apple juice, may cause bloating and flatulence in some people (104184).
Immunologic ...Patients allergic to other fruits in the Rosaceae family, including apricot, almond, plum, peach, pear, and strawberry, can also be allergic to apples (7129). Rarely, the allergy has resulted in anaphylaxis (94425).
Other ...Orally, ingestion of large amounts of apple seeds, which contain hydrogen cyanide (HCN), may cause cyanide poisoning, leading to death. One death is attributed to ingestion of a cupful of apple seeds. To release cyanide, seeds must be hydrolyzed in the stomach, and several hours may elapse before poisoning symptoms occur (6).
General
...Orally, black psyllium is generally well tolerated when taken with adequate fluids.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Bloating, flatulence.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Bowel obstruction, esophageal obstruction.
Gastrointestinal ...Black psyllium can cause flatulence and bloating. These effects are generally transient and can be reduced by increasing the daily dose gradually (93214). Taking black psyllium with too little fluid can lead to esophageal or intestinal obstruction (18,93217,93218).
Immunologic ...Several psyllium species have been associated with sensitization and allergic reactions, especially in people exposed to airborne psyllium dust, such as nurses preparing doses of psyllium powder, and workers in psyllium processing plants (93214). Symptoms of occupational exposure include rhinitis, conjunctivitis, wheezing, asthma, and urticarial rashes (18,93214). Severe anaphylactic reactions have been reported in individuals with occupational exposure who then ingest psyllium products (2329,8079,9246).
General
...Orally, blond psyllium is generally well tolerated.
When used as eye drops, blond psyllium seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Oral: Abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, dyspepsia, flatulence, and nausea.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Oral: Bowel obstruction, esophageal obstruction.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, blond psyllium can cause transient flatulence, abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, dyspepsia, and nausea (1376). Starting with a low dose and slowly titrating to the desired dose can often minimize gastrointestinal side effects. There is some concern that blond psyllium can cause esophageal or bowel obstruction when consumed without water or in patients with swallowing disorders (604,8080,8081,110760). Tell patients to consume plenty of water when taking blond psyllium. Suggest at least 240 mL of fluid for every 3.5-5 grams of seed husk or 7 grams of seed (1376,8080,8081).
Musculoskeletal ...Orally, backache has been reported with the use of psyllium (1376).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, headache has been reported with the use of psyllium (1376).
Ocular/Otic ...Ophthalmically, blurred vision or burning haven been reported rarely in patients using eye drops containing blond psyllium mucilage (105274).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Orally, rhinitis, increased cough, and sinusitis have been reported with the use of psyllium (1376).
Other
...Some patients can have an allergic response to blond psyllium.
Allergy symptoms include allergic rhinitis, sneezing, conjunctivitis, urticarial rash, itching, flushing, and dyspnea. More serious symptoms include wheezing, facial and body swelling, chest congestion, chest and throat tightness, cough, diarrhea, hypotension, loss of consciousness, and anaphylactic shock. Occupational exposure or repeated ingestion of psyllium can cause sensitization, which can lead to serious allergic reactions (2328,2329,2330,8079,9246,92193). Severe allergic reactions may occur after eating a small quantity of cereal that contains blond psyllium. At least one cereal (Heartwise, Kellogg Co.) has increased the purity of the psyllium it contains, which has decreased the incidence of allergic reactions (9244). A warning of the potential for allergic reactions is on the label of all cereals that contain psyllium (9247). Patients hypersensitive to psyllium usually have marked eosinophilia and an elevated psyllium-specific IgE antibody serum level (2328,2329,92193).
There is concern that individuals allergic to pollen from English plantain weed (Plantain lanceolate) might also react to psyllium husk dust; however, it appears that there is little cross-allergenicity between these plants and is probably mild and of no clinical significance (8057,9244,92193).
Blond psyllium has a tendency to plug feeding tubes. This can be avoided if blond psyllium is mixed with water and pushed through the feeding tube in less than 5 minutes (8423).
General ...Orally, chickweed is generally well tolerated when consumed in food amounts. There is currently a limited amount of information on the adverse effects of chickweed when used as a medicine. A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Immunologic ...Topically, chickweed extract has been reported to cause contact dermatitis (13478,41587,41590).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, consumption of large amounts of chickweed tea has been associated with some poorly documented cases of human paralysis (6). There is also one case of alleged nitrate toxicity leading to paralysis, but the chickweed implicated in this case may have been contaminated with fertilizer (12).
General ...Information regarding the adverse effects of mullein is limited. A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Dermatologic ...Two case reports have described dermatitis, with positive patch tests, after topical exposure to the whole plant, or by occupational inhalation of plant dust (92839,97316). In the case of topical exposure, the patient also had positive patch tests to other plants.
General
...Orally, pectin seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Diarrhea, gas, loose stools, and mild cramps.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
All routes of administration: Allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, in sensitive individuals.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, pectin alone or in combination with guar gum and insoluble fiber can cause gastrointestinal adverse effects such as mild cramps, diarrhea, gas, and loose stools (12547,15020,92473).
Immunologic ...Orally and topically, pectin may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. In one case, a 7-year-old boy with a history of oral allergy syndrome after consuming a pectin-containing beverage experienced anaphylaxis after taking a citrus bath containing pectin. Allergy testing confirmed sensitivity to pectin (106928).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...The occupational inhalation of pectin dust can cause asthma (580,581,582,583,584).
General
...There is currently a limited amount of information available on the adverse effects of skullcap.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Cognitive impairment, digestive disturbances, sedation.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, mild digestive disturbances were reported in around 9% of patients taking skullcap 350 mg three times daily for 2 weeks (91690).
Hepatic ...There are four reports of hepatotoxicity associated with products thought to contain skullcap. However, it is uncertain whether the products actually contained skullcap. It is thought that the products might have been contaminated with an adulterant such as germander (515), which is known to cause liver damage.
Neurologic/CNS ...A single skullcap extract dose of 100 mg does not seem to have adverse CNS effects. However, a higher dose of 200 mg might cause sedation and cognitive impairment (12216). One patient taking skullcap 350 mg three times daily for 2 weeks reported vivid dreams (91690). It is unclear if this event was associated with skullcap.
General ...No adverse effects have been reported; however, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
