Chaulmoogra and Tedizolid Phosphate

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 Tedizolid Phosphate and Chaulmoogra 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 Chaulmoogra at all — not against Tedizolid Phosphate, 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 Chaulmoogra Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Tedizolid Phosphate. It is the side-effect record for Chaulmoogra on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Chaulmoogra, this list is the first place to look. One entry is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Kidney problems / Shortness of breath Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, ingestion of the seed can cause cough, dyspnea, laryngospasms, nephrotoxicity, visual disorders, head and muscle pain, and central paralysis (18).

    Topically, use can cause skin irritation (18).”

  • Cough / Muscle pain Additional detail

    Recorded for Chaulmoogra in the same Natural Medicines adverse-effect record shown under Kidney problems / Shortness of breath above.

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Chaulmoogra — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Tedizolid Phosphate’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Tedizolid Phosphate column appears here.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Tedizolid Phosphate page

“Nearly every supplement interaction on file for tedizolid phosphate (Sivextro), an antibiotic used for serious skin infections, points the same way. The antibiotic can kill the live organisms in probiotic products, which weakens the probiotic, not the drug.”

About Chaulmoogra

What is Chaulmoogra?

  • Leprosy (historical)
  • Skin conditions and rashes
  • Wound and sore care
  • Eczema and psoriasis (traditional)
  • Rheumatic complaints (traditional)

Chaulmoogra oil is an old herbal remedy famous for being the main treatment for leprosy before modern antibiotics. Today it has been replaced by safer, more effective drugs, and there is little reliable modern evidence to support its use. If you are considering it, talk to a pharmacist or doctor first, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
