Abstract
Herb-drug interactions (HDI) has become important due to the increasing popularity of natural health product consumption worldwide. HDI is difficult to predict as botanical drugs usually contain complex phytochemical-mixtures, which interact with drug metabolism. Currently, there is no specific pharmacological tool to predict HDI since almost all in vitro-in vivo-extrapolation (IVIVE) Drug-Drug Interaction (DDI) models deal with one inhibitor-drug and one victim-drug. The objectives were to modify-two IVIVE models for the prediction of in vivo interaction between caffeine and furanocoumarin-containing herbs, and to confirm model predictions by comparing the DDI predictive results with actual human data. The models were modified to predict in vivo herb-caffeine interaction using the same set of inhibition constants but different integrated dose/concentration of furanocoumarin mixtures in the liver. Different hepatic inlet inhibitor concentration ([I]H) surrogates were used for each furanocoumarin. In the first (hybrid) model, the [I]H was predicted using the concentration-addition model for chemical-mixtures. In the second model, the [I]H was calculated by adding individual furanocoumarins together. Once [I]H values were determined, the models predicted an area-under-curve-ratio (AUCR) value of each interaction. The results indicate that both models were able to predict the experimental AUCR of herbal products reasonably well. The DDI model approaches described in this study may be applicable to health supplements and functional foods also.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
