Dulaglutide brand name: Trulicity.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Lactobacillus Delbrueckii and Dulaglutide 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.

Lactobacillus Delbrueckii and Dulaglutide

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 Dulaglutide and Lactobacillus Delbrueckii 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.

Lactobacillus Delbrueckii safety at a glance

Lactobacillus Delb... overall Use caution Generally well tolerated in healthy people, but people who are very ill or immunocompromised should be cautious.
Pregnancy Use caution Probiotics in food are likely fine, but supplement safety in pregnancy is not well studied, so check with your doctor.
Breastfeeding Use caution Limited specific data, so use only with guidance from your healthcare provider.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Dulaglutide

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Dulaglutide is filed under a single classification — antidiabetes drugs. Lactobacillus Delbrueckii has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being antibiotic drugs (moderate) — and none of Dulaglutide’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

What Lactobacillus Delbrueckii Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Trouble passing urine / A higher chance of infection Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Since Lactobacillus delbrueckii preparations contain live and active microorganisms, there is some concern that they might cause pathogenic infection in some patients. Some lactobacilli species have been isolated in cases of bacteremia, sepsis, splenic abscess, endocarditis, necrotizing fasciitis, pancreatic necrosis, and meningoencephalitis.”

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

Overlapping uses

What Dulaglutide Is Prescribed For, and What Lactobacillus Delbrueckii Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Dulaglutide is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Lactobacillus Delbrueckii is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Dulaglutide is prescribed for: Trulicity (dulaglutide) injection is used alongside diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults and children 10 years and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is not for type 1 diabetes. Trulicity is also used in adults with type 2 diabetes who have established cardiovascular disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors to lower the risk of major heart events — specifically cardiovascular death, non-fatal heart attack, or non-fatal stroke.

Lactobacillus Delbrueckii has been studied for:

  • Diabetes studied, not established Lactobacillus Delbrueckii has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Lactobacillus Delbrueckii for diabetes

    Oral Lactobacillus delbrueckii has only been evaluated in combination with other ingredients; its effect when used alone is unclear.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Dulaglutide on your own; if you are taking Lactobacillus Delbrueckii for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Dulaglutide

This page covers Lactobacillus Delbrueckii only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Dulaglutide page lists 239 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Siberian Cocklebur (major), Acai (moderate), African Wild Potato (moderate), Agaricus Mushroom (moderate) and Agmatine (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 208 moderate · 30 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dulaglutide page

“Because dulaglutide (Trulicity) already lowers blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes, nearly every entry on this page deserves genuine respect, and one demands it outright. Almost all of these supplements pull glucose in one direction or the other, so the danger that matters most is hypoglycemia, blood sugar dropping too low.”

About Lactobacillus Delbrueckii

What is Lactobacillus Delbrueckii?

  • Digestive health
  • Lactose digestion support
  • Diarrhea
  • Gut microbiome balance
  • Immune support

Lactobacillus delbrueckii is a 'friendly' bacterium used in food fermentation and sold as a probiotic, often as part of multi-strain products. It is generally considered safe for healthy people, but solid human evidence for most specific health claims is limited. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you have a weakened immune system or serious illness.

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

Lactobacillus Delbrueckii: dosing

There is no standardized, official dose of Lactobacillus delbrueckii. Probiotic products are usually measured in colony-forming units (CFU), and the amount varies widely between products.The best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the recommended amount. Storing the product as directed (some need refrigeration) helps keep the bacteria alive and effective.

Taking Lactobacillus Delbrueckii and Dulaglutide Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Lactobacillus Delbrueckii with Dulaglutide?
We do not list a known interaction between Lactobacillus Delbrueckii and Dulaglutide. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Are Lactobacillus Delbrueckii and Dulaglutide used for the same thing?
They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together. This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Lactobacillus Delbrueckii in each. That is a conversation for your prescriber, especially if Dulaglutide is being adjusted to a target.
How was the Lactobacillus Delbrueckii and Dulaglutide combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Dulaglutide is filed under 1 classification, and Lactobacillus Delbrueckii has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Dulaglutide's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Lactobacillus Delbrueckii interact with any other medications?
Yes. Lactobacillus Delbrueckii has 182 documented drug interactions in our database — Dulaglutide is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Dulaglutide interact with any supplements?
Yes. Dulaglutide has documented interactions with 239 supplements in our database — Lactobacillus Delbrueckii is not one of them. The Dulaglutide interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
