Latilactobacillus Sakei and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

ANTIBIOTIC DRUGS

Why this applies to Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

Dalbavancin Hydrochloride falls under ANTIBIOTIC DRUGS — the group Latilactobacillus Sakei interacts with.

Theoretically, taking Latilactobacillus sakei with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of L. sakei.
Latilactobacillus sakei preparations usually contain live and active organisms. Therefore, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and L. sakei preparations by at least two hours.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Probable Evidence D

Interaction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports..

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the thing to know: this isn't your antibiotic being affected, it's the probiotic. Dalbavancin (Dalvance) is a strong antibiotic that kills bacteria, and Latilactobacillus sakei is itself a live bacterium. So if you take the supplement while the antibiotic is active in your body, the dalbavancin may simply wipe out a good chunk of those probiotic organisms, making the supplement less likely to do its job.

One wrinkle with dalbavancin: it's a long-acting drug given as an injection that lingers for weeks, so spacing them apart by a couple hours won't help much here. This is a theoretical concern based on how each works, not a safety danger to you. Your dalbavancin keeps working fine. Just check with your pharmacist about timing.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dalbavancin Hydrochloride page

“Everything on the dalbavancin (Dalvance) interaction list points in one direction. No supplement on file makes this IV skin-infection antibiotic dangerous or weaker; instead, dalbavancin can kill the live organisms in probiotic products, so the supplement is the one that loses.”
