Does Hair Growth Supplement Interact With Birth Control Pill?

I am wondering if a supplement that is suppose to support healthy hair growth will interact with the effectiveness of the birth control I am currently taking (Tri-Sprintec). The ingredients in the supplement include an apple extract, biotin, zinc, copper sulfate, panthothenic acid, and other herbal extracts.
