Carbon 60 (c60) + Methol/Benzocaine
Methol/Benzocaine brand name: Vicks Formula 44 Sore Throat Lozenges.
We found no known interaction between Carbon 60 (c60) and Methol/Benzocaine 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.
Carbon 60 (c60) and Methol/Benzocaine
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 Methol/Benzocaine and Carbon 60 (c60) 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.
Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Carbon 60 (c60) at all — not against Methol/Benzocaine, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.
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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Methol/Benzocaine page
“A sore throat bad enough for Methol/Benzocaine lozenges (Vicks Formula 44) often sends the same person to the supplement aisle, and the good news is that this pairing is manageable for nearly everyone. Just three ingredients have interactions on file, none rated major, and all three affect topical drugs like the numbing benzocaine in t…”

Where does our data come from?
- Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Carbon 60 (c60) is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
- Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Carbon 60 (c60) reference on this page ↓
- Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 13, 2026. The Carbon 60 (c60) and Methol/Benzocaine records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
- What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.

Carbon 60 (C60) is a man-made molecule made of 60 carbon atoms, usually sold dissolved in oil and marketed as a powerful antioxidant or anti-aging supplement. Despite bold marketing, there is no good human evidence that it provides any of these benefits, and its long-term safety in people is unknown. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
