You are right in that the Liverpool interaction site mentions there are no interactions. It states that there is not a clinically significant interaction.<\/p>\n<p>There has been no direct research to observe any interactions but how the drugs are metabolised, interactions can be worked out. Ginseng is metabolised differently to the medications in BIktarvy preventing an interaction. Aloe has a potentially weak interaction with how Biktarvy is metabolised by not a big enough interaction to cause an effect.<\/p>\n<p>In your case, the accidental ingestion of these two products would be in tiny quantities.
