Mastic + Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate
Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate brand name: Xywav.
We found no known interaction between Mastic and Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate 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 label for Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate states a food rule worth keeping to, and 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.
Mastic and Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate
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 Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate and Mastic 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 Mastic at all — not against Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate, 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.
Mastic safety at a glance
Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.
Some Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate Products Have a Food Rule — Mastic Should Not Break It
At least one FDA label for a product containing Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate says to take it with food. If you take Mastic on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate with a meal where the label says to.
This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Calcium Oxybate, Magnesium Oxybate, Potassium Oxybate, Sodium Oxybate page
“Xywav combines calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium oxybates to treat cataplexy and daytime sleepiness in narcolepsy, and because each nightly dose is measured and timed with real precision, this list deserves genuine attention rather than a quick skim.

About Mastic
What is Mastic?
- Indigestion and stomach upset
- Stomach ulcers and H. pylori support
- Oral and gum health
- Bad breath
- General antioxidant/anti-inflammatory support
Mastic is a resin from the mastic tree that has a long history of use for digestive complaints and oral health. Some small studies suggest it may help with indigestion, stomach ulcers, and dental hygiene, but the evidence is limited and not conclusive. It is generally well tolerated in food amounts, but talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it as a supplement, especially if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Pistacia lentiscus · Anacardiaceae · Resin (gum) from the tree; sometimes the essential oil · Capsules, chewable gum/resin tears, powder, essential oil, mouthwash, toothpaste
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Mastic is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Mastic record says about it on its own.
Mastic: dosing
There is no official or standardized dose of mastic. Studies have used different forms and amounts, so it is hard to recommend one exact dose. The strength of capsules, powders, and chewing products can vary a lot between brands.The safest approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the suggested amount. Because supplements are not tightly regulated, choose a reputable brand when possible.
