Dimethylglycine (dmg) and Aliskiren

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 Aliskiren and Dimethylglycine (dmg) 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 Dimethylglycine (dmg) at all — not against Aliskiren, 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 the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Aliskiren. Read the label on DailyMed › Dimethylglycine (dmg)’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Dimethylglycine (dmg) side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Dimethylglycine (dmg) has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Aliskiren page

“Aliskiren (Tekturna) has one job, keeping blood pressure down, and most of this list pulls on that same rope. Of the 227 supplements with an interaction on file, 119 have blood-pressure effects of their own, stacking with the drug until pressure drops too far (fish oil is a common one) or pushing back against it.”

About Dimethylglycine (dmg)

What is Dimethylglycine (dmg)?

  • Athletic performance and energy
  • Autism spectrum support
  • Immune support
  • Seizure disorders
  • General wellness and detox support

Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a substance made naturally in the body and found in small amounts in foods. It is marketed for energy, athletic performance, autism, and immune support, but solid human evidence for most of these uses is limited. It appears generally well tolerated in short-term use, but talk with your pharmacist or doctor before trying it.

Not applicable (a naturally occurring amino acid derivative) · Tablets, capsules, chewable tablets, sublingual tablets, powder

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

There is no officially established or standardized dose of DMG.

About Aliskiren

What Is Aliskiren Used For?

Brand name: Tekturna

Aliskiren tablets — available as the brand Tekturna and as generic aliskiren — are used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and in children who are at least 6 years old and weigh 50 kg (about 110 lbs) or more. Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of strokes and heart attacks.

Controlling blood pressure is most effective as part of a broader plan that may include healthy eating, exercise, reducing sodium, and managing other risk factors like cholesterol and blood sugar. Many people need more than one blood pressure medicine to reach their goal.
