There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of atractylodes.
PREGNANCY: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when used orally.
In animals, atractylodes has caused reproductive toxicity, including fetal death, as well as changes in gestation, growth, and skeletal formation (94304).

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, atractylodes might decrease the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Details
In animals, atractylodes administered at high doses has been shown to induce CYP1A2 activity (112828). This effect has not been shown in humans.
|
Theoretically, atractylodes might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Details
In animals, atractylodes administered at high doses has been shown to inhibit CYP3A1 activity, which is a homolog to the human CYP3A4 enzyme (112828). This effect has not been shown in humans.
|
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.

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.
