The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose and Mitomycin in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Interaction report

Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose and Mitomycin

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Mitomycin and Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Mitomycin

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Mitomycin is filed under 3 classifications — antitumor antibiotics, topical drugs, oral drugs. Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being antidiabetes drugs (minor) — and none of Mitomycin’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

What Mitomycin’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Mitomycin’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

A stroke or mini-stroke Worth acting on
Pain or burning when passing urine Worth acting on
High potassium Worth acting on
A low platelet count Worth acting on
Kidney problems Worth acting on
Anemia Worth acting on
Raised blood pressure Worth acting on
A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on
A higher chance of infection Worth acting on

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Mitomycin. Read the label on DailyMed › Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose has no side effects.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Mitomycin

This page covers Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Mitomycin page lists 26 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Acerola (moderate), Alpha-lipoic Acid (moderate), Coffee Charcoal (moderate) and Dimethylsulfoxide (dmso) (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 15 moderate · 10 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Mitomycin page

“Activated charcoal is the entry to know first with mitomycin (Mutamycin, Mitosol, Jelmyto), a chemotherapy drug, because charcoal binds medications and can cut the amount the body receives, and it carries this list's only major rating. A weakened dose of a cancer treatment is a real loss, so I would treat these 26 interactions with gen…”

About Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose

What is Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose?

Dry mouth (xerostomia)
Sjögren syndrome
Dry mouth from medications
Food stabilizer and texturizer

Anhydrous crystalline maltose is a starch-derived sugar (also called malt sugar) studied mainly as a slow-dissolving lozenge to ease dry mouth, including in people with Sjögren syndrome. Some studies suggest it may modestly improve saliva flow, but the overall evidence is limited. It appears generally well tolerated, but talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you have diabetes.

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Anhydrous Crystalline Maltose record says about it on its own.

About Mitomycin

What Is Mitomycin Used For?

Brand names: Mutamycin, Mitosol, Jelmyto

Mitomycin (and its brand Mutamycin) is used intravenously in combination with other chemotherapy drugs to treat disseminated adenocarcinoma (a type of cancer that has spread) of the stomach or pancreas, when other treatments have not worked. It is not intended to replace surgery or radiation therapy.

Mitomycin is also the active ingredient in other products for different uses: Jelmyto treats low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer (cancer of the upper urinary tract); Zusduri treats recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer; and Mitosol is used as a surgical aid during certain glaucoma eye surgery. These are separate products with distinct indications and are not interchangeable with the intravenous injection form.
