Carbon 60 (c60) + Sucralfate
Sucralfate brand names: Carafate, Antepsin.
We found no known interaction between Carbon 60 (c60) and Sucralfate 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Sucralfate states a food rule worth keeping to.
Carbon 60 (c60) and Sucralfate
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 Sucralfate 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 Sucralfate, 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.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.
Some Sucralfate Products Have a Food Rule — Carbon 60 (c60) Should Not Break It
At least one FDA label for a product containing Sucralfate says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Carbon 60 (c60) included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Sucralfate on its own and move Carbon 60 (c60) to a meal later in the day.
This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Sucralfate products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.
D O S A G E A N D A D M INI S T R A T I O N A cti v e D u oden a l Ulc e r : The recommended adult oral dosage for duodenal ulcer is 1 g four times per day on an empty stomach.

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Sucralfate
This page covers Carbon 60 (c60) only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Sucralfate page lists 17 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.
The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Coffee Charcoal (moderate), European Mandrake (moderate), Glucomannan (moderate) and Guar Gum (moderate).
By severity: 1 major · 7 moderate · 9 minor.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Sucralfate page
“If you take sucralfate (Carafate) to heal an ulcer, keep activated charcoal well away from it. Charcoal carries the sole major rating on this list because it adsorbs drugs in the digestive tract, and sucralfate works entirely there, forming a protective coating over damaged stomach lining rather than circulating through the body.”

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 20, 2026. The Carbon 60 (c60) and Sucralfate 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.
About Carbon 60 (c60)
What is Carbon 60 (c60)?
- Antioxidant support
- Anti-aging and longevity
- Energy and vitality
- Athletic recovery
- General wellness
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.
Not applicable (synthetic carbon molecule) · Liquid (C60 dissolved in oils such as olive, coconut, or avocado oil), softgels, capsules
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Carbon 60 (c60) is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Carbon 60 (c60) record says about it on its own.
Carbon 60 (c60): dosing
There is no established or standardized dose for C60. Because there are no reliable human studies, no one can say what amount is safe or effective.If you choose to use a C60 product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. It is a good idea to choose products from companies that provide third-party testing for purity.

Sucralfate Is Linked to Lower Levels of One Nutrient
Natural Medicines records Sucralfate as a medicine that can lower these. This is not an interaction with Carbon 60 (c60) — it is a separate effect of the medicine, and it is a reason some people are advised to supplement rather than to avoid one:
