The bottom line No known interaction

Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Cat's Foot and Desoximetasone

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 Desoximetasone and Cat's Foot 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 Cat's Foot at all — not against Desoximetasone, 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.

What to actually watch for

What Desoximetasone’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Cat's Foot. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Desoximetasone’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. One of them is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A higher chance of infection Worth acting on
  • Itching
  • A skin rash

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Desoximetasone. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 18,942 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Desoximetasone that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Cat's Foot’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Cat's Foot side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Cat's Foot has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Desoximetasone page

“DMSO is the one to watch most closely with desoximetasone (Topicort), a topical corticosteroid prescribed for inflamed, itchy skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Animal work and limited human studies suggest DMSO can carry other topical drugs deeper through the skin, which could turn a carefully dosed steroid cream into a strong…”

About Cat's Foot

What is Cat's Foot?

  • Cough and sore throat
  • Digestive upset
  • Gallbladder and liver complaints
  • Mild inflammation
  • Diarrhea

Cat's Foot (Antennaria dioica) is a small flowering plant from the daisy family used in traditional European herbal medicine, mostly as a tea for coughs and digestive complaints. There is very little modern scientific research on its safety or effectiveness, so its benefits remain unproven. Talk with a pharmacist or doctor before using it, and avoid it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Antennaria dioica · Asteraceae · Flowers and aerial (above-ground) parts · Tea (infusion), dried herb, tincture, sometimes capsules

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