The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Garlic and Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium 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 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.

Interaction report

Garlic and Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium

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 Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium and Garlic 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 Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium is filed under 7 classifications — including penicillin, antibiotic drugs, nephrotoxic drugs. Garlic has documented interactions with 12 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate), antidiabetes drugs (moderate) and antihypertensive drugs (moderate) — and none of Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium’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.

Keep it in perspective

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Garlic and Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium 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. 3 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Garlic
“There is a case report of an immediate sensitivity reaction to oral raw garlic, resulting in wheals, in a 31-year-old female. The patient did not react to cooked garlic, and skin prick tests showed allergy only to raw garlic. Researchers note that at least some allergens in raw garlic are heat labile.”

Special populations

Garlic in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Likely Safe

When used orally in amounts commonly found in foods.

Pregnancy Possibly Unsafe

When used orally in medicinal amounts. Garlic is reported to have abortifacient activity. One study also suggests that garlic constituents are distributed to the amniotic fluid after a single dose of garlic. However, there are no published reports of garlic adversely affecting pregnancy. In clinical research, garlic 800 mg daily was used during the third trimester of pregnancy with no reported adverse outcomes. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of topical garlic during pregnancy.

Lactation Likely Safe

When used orally in amounts commonly found in foods.

Lactation Possibly Unsafe

When used orally in amounts greater than those found in foods. Several small studies suggest that garlic constituents are secreted in breast milk, and that nursing infants of mothers consuming garlic are prone to extended nursing. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of topical garlic during lactation.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium

This page covers Garlic only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium page lists 96 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Asarabacca (major), Beer (major), Khat (major) and Siberian Cocklebur (major).

By severity: 6 major · 76 moderate · 14 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium page

“Beer and wine sit among the six major-rated interactions for amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium (Augmentin), and this list deserves real caution. Clavulanate is a well-known antibiotic cause of liver injury, so the 38 ingredients flagged for adding liver stress carry extra weight with this particular drug.”

About Garlic

What is Garlic?

High blood pressure
High cholesterol
Heart health
Immune support and common cold
Antimicrobial uses

Garlic is a common food and supplement that may modestly help with blood pressure and cholesterol, though the evidence is mixed and effects are usually small. It is generally safe in food amounts, but concentrated supplements can cause stomach upset, breath and body odor, and a higher risk of bleeding. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before taking garlic supplements, especially if you take other medicines.

Allium sativum · Amaryllidaceae · Bulb (cloves) · Fresh cloves, powder, capsules, tablets, softgels, aged garlic extract, garlic oil

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

Garlic: dosing

There is no single official dose for garlic supplements. Different forms, such as aged garlic extract, powdered tablets, and oil, are not interchangeable. Start low and watch how you respond.

Is it safe to take Garlic with Amoxicillin, Clavulanate Potassium?
