Dimethylglycine (dmg) and Mycophenolic Acid

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 Mycophenolic Acid 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 Mycophenolic Acid, 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 our pharmacist’s overview on the Mycophenolic Acid page

“Every supplement on this page interacts with mycophenolic acid (Myfortic) in the same basic way, by changing how much of the drug your gut actually absorbs, and for a transplant medicine that keeps the immune system from rejecting a new organ, a dip in blood levels deserves real vigilance. Activated charcoal is the one to understand fi…”

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Dimethylglycine (dmg) 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 Dimethylglycine (dmg) reference on this page ↓

  • 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 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.

Dimethylglycine (dmg): dosing

There is no officially established or standardized dose of DMG.
