Ciclopirox brand name: Loprox.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Methoxylated Flavones and Ciclopirox 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.

Methoxylated Flavones and Ciclopirox

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 Ciclopirox and Methoxylated Flavones 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 Ciclopirox

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Ciclopirox is filed under 2 classifications — antifungals, oral drugs. Methoxylated Flavones has documented interactions with 5 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate), cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) substrates (moderate) and cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates (moderate) — and none of Ciclopirox’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 Ciclopirox’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Methoxylated Flavones. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Ciclopirox’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both.

  • Sun sensitivity
  • A skin rash mentioned in 4.6% of FDA reports for Ciclopirox

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Ciclopirox. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 2,937 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Ciclopirox that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Methoxylated Flavones’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Methoxylated Flavones side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Methoxylated Flavones has no side effects.

Special populations

Methoxylated Flavones in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy And Lactation Likely Safe

When consumed orally in amounts typically found in foods. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of methoxylated flavones when used in amounts greater than those found in foods during pregnancy or breast-feeding; avoid using in amounts greater than those typically found in foods.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Ciclopirox

This page covers Methoxylated Flavones only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Ciclopirox page lists 20 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Coffee Charcoal (moderate), European Mandrake (moderate), Glucomannan (moderate) and Guar Gum (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 7 moderate · 12 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Ciclopirox page

“Ciclopirox (Loprox) is a topical antifungal, painted on nails or applied to skin for fungal infections, yet its supplement list still earns genuine caution because of one major-rated entry among the 20 ingredients on file. Activated charcoal can drag down levels of many medicines no matter how the drug enters the body, and that is the…”

About Methoxylated Flavones

What is Methoxylated Flavones?

  • Antioxidant support
  • Circulation and blood vessel health
  • Anti-inflammatory support
  • Skin and aging support
  • General 'metabolism' or wellness blends

Methoxylated flavones (often called polymethoxyflavones) are a group of plant compounds, found mainly in citrus peel, that include substances like nobiletin and tangeretin. Lab and animal studies suggest possible antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, but solid human research is very limited, so their real-world benefits are unproven. Talk with a pharmacist or doctor before using them, especially if you take medicines or are pregnant or breastfeeding.

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

Methoxylated Flavones: dosing

There is no established standard dose for methoxylated flavones. Products vary widely in how much they contain and what other ingredients they are combined with.If you choose to use one, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed the recommended amount.
