Theoretically, atractylodes might increase the risk of bleeding when used concomitantly with anticoagulant and antiplatelet drugs.
Details
Laboratory research suggests that atractylenolides II and III, constituents of atractylodes, reduce platelet activation (94299). So far, this has not been shown in humans.

Theoretically, atractylodes may have an additive effect when used with other aromatase inhibitors.
Details
Laboratory research suggests that atractylodes and its constituents exhibit aromatase inhibitor effects (94302).
|
Theoretically, taking atractylodes may prolong the therapeutic and adverse effects of hexobarbital.
Details
In animals, atractylodes has been shown to prolong the effects of hexobarbital (94303). These effects have not been shown in humans.
|
Theoretically, poria mushroom might decrease the clinical effects of anticholinergic drugs.
Details
In animal research, poria mushroom essential oil reduces acetylcholinesterase activity (111917). This interaction has not been shown in humans.

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Russian Choice GI. 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
...There is currently a limited amount of information on the adverse effects of atractylodes.
A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Allergic reaction, dry mouth, nausea.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, atractylenolide I, an isolated constituent of atractylodes, can cause bad taste, nausea, and dry mouth (15706).
Immunologic ...Atractylodes can cause an allergic reaction in people sensitive to the Asteraceae/Compositae family (12450). Members of this family include ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigolds, daisies, and many other herbs.
General ...Orally, poria mushroom seems to be well tolerated. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Immunologic ...Allergic reactions have been reported rarely, including allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma (12).
General
...Orally, wild yam is generally well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Fever, headache, upset stomach, and vomiting.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Anaphylaxis.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, wild yam can cause upset stomach and vomiting, especially at higher doses (12,86450).
Hematologic ...In one case report, a 55-year-old female with protein S deficiency and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) had temporary vision loss in the left eye from hemiretinal vein thrombosis 3 days after taking a combination phytoestrogen product containing wild yam 276 mg, dong quai 100 mg, red clover 250 mg, and black cohosh 250 mg (13155). It is unclear if wild yam contributed to this event.
Immunologic ...There are three case reports of anaphylaxis after ingestion of cooked wild yam (96722).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, wild yam can cause headache and fever, especially at higher doses (86450).
