Cesium + Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride

Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride brand names: Diclegis, Bonjesta.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 27, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Cesium and Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride 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 Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride states a food rule worth keeping to, and the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Cesium and Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine 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 Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride and Cesium 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 Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride is filed under 2 classifications — anticholinergic drugs, oral drugs. Cesium has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being qt interval-prolonging drugs (major), corticosteroids (moderate) and diuretic drugs (moderate) — and none of Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine 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 to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Cesium and Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

  • A fast or pounding heartbeat Additional detail

    Cesium

    “Orally and by injection, cesium chloride has been associated with arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia, QT prolongation, cardiac arrest, seizures, and death. There are at least 23 reports of cardiotoxicity or death in patients taking cesium supplements.

    In one case report, a healthy 39-year-old female taking an unknown amount of cesium chloride as part of a "detoxification" program developed three episodes of…”

How to take them

Some Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride Products Have a Food Rule — Cesium Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Cesium included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride on its own and move Cesium 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 Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride 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.

Take on an empty stomach with a glass of water [ see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ].

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

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.

About Cesium

What is Cesium?

  • Marketed as an alternative cancer treatment ('high pH therapy')
  • Claimed to alter tumor pH
  • General 'alkaline' health claims

Cesium chloride is a mineral salt sold as an alternative cancer therapy ('high pH therapy'), but there is no reliable scientific evidence that it treats cancer or any other disease. It can cause dangerous heart rhythm problems and even death, so it should not be used. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking any supplement, and never use cesium in place of proven medical care.

Mineral element (cesium chloride salt) · Capsules, powders, liquid solutions (often as cesium chloride)

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

Cesium: dosing

There is no safe or established dose for cesium chloride, and it is not approved as a medicine. Because it can cause life-threatening harm, no dosing recommendation can be given.We strongly advise against taking cesium chloride.

About Doxylamine and Pyridoxine

What Is Doxylamine and Pyridoxine Used For?

Brand names: Diclegis, Bonjesta

Doxylamine and pyridoxine is indicated for the treatment of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy in women who do not respond to conservative management. This applies to the delayed-release tablets (including Diclegis and the generic doxylamine succinate and pyridoxine hydrochloride delayed-release tablets) as well as to Bonjesta, the extended-release tablet formulation.

None of these products have been studied in women with hyperemesis gravidarum (severe, persistent vomiting in pregnancy), so their use in that setting is not established.

Is it safe to take Cesium with Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride?

Should I take Cesium and Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride at the same time of day?
