Buchu and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

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 Dalbavancin Hydrochloride and Buchu 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 Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Dalbavancin Hydrochloride is filed under a single classification — antibiotic drugs. Buchu has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate), hepatotoxic drugs (moderate) and lithium (moderate) — and none of Dalbavancin Hydrochloride’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 Dalbavancin Hydrochloride’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Buchu. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Dalbavancin Hydrochloride’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.

  • Low blood sugar Worth acting on
  • Wheezing Worth acting on
  • A low platelet count Worth acting on
  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Hives Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
  • Liver problems Worth acting on
  • Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 21 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Dalbavancin Hydrochloride. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 443 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Dalbavancin Hydrochloride that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Buchu’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Buchu side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Buchu has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dalbavancin Hydrochloride page

“Everything on the dalbavancin (Dalvance) interaction list points in one direction. No supplement on file makes this IV skin-infection antibiotic dangerous or weaker; instead, dalbavancin can kill the live organisms in probiotic products, so the supplement is the one that loses.”

About Buchu

What is Buchu?

Buchu
  • Urinary tract complaints
  • Diuretic (increasing urine flow)
  • Bloating and fluid retention
  • Mild digestive upset
  • Antimicrobial/antiseptic use
  • Flavoring and fragrance

Buchu is a fragrant South African shrub whose leaves are traditionally used for urinary and bladder complaints and as a diuretic. Solid human studies are lacking, so its benefits are largely unproven, and it should be avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you have kidney or liver problems.

Agathosma betulina · Rutaceae · Leaves and essential oil · Tea, capsules, tincture, dried leaf, essential oil

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

Buchu: dosing

There is no well-established standardized dose for buchu. Traditional preparations include teas made from the dried leaf and tinctures, but reliable human studies have not confirmed a safe and effective amount.If you choose to use a buchu product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. Avoid taking the concentrated essential oil internally.
