No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Methyldiazinol and Cefotaxime 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.

Methyldiazinol and Cefotaxime

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 Cefotaxime and Methyldiazinol 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 Methyldiazinol at all — not against Cefotaxime, 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.

What to actually watch for

What Cefotaxime’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Methyldiazinol. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Cefotaxime’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. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Blood clots Worth acting on
  • Yellowing of the skin or eyes Worth acting on
  • Wheezing Worth acting on
  • A severe skin reaction Worth acting on
  • Seizures Worth acting on
  • A low platelet count Worth acting on
  • Kidney problems Worth acting on
  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Hives Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 23 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Cefotaxime. Read the label on DailyMed › Methyldiazinol’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Methyldiazinol side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Methyldiazinol has no side effects.

Special populations

Methyldiazinol in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy And Lactation Possibly Unsafe

When used orally or parenterally. Anabolic androgenic steroids can disrupt the body's hormonal balance and cause various adverse effects including reduced fertility, hair loss, acne, and behavioral changes. Anabolic androgenic steroid use has also been associated with hepatotoxicity and increased risk for heart disease. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory agencies warn that dietary supplements containing anabolic steroids are dangerous. Avoid using.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Cefotaxime

This page covers Methyldiazinol only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Cefotaxime page lists 45 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Asarabacca (major), Siberian Cocklebur (major), African Wild Potato (moderate), Aristolochia (moderate) and Bacillus Coagulans (moderate).

By severity: 2 major · 39 moderate · 4 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Cefotaxime page

“The two entries worth understanding first on this cefotaxime (Claforan) list are Siberian cocklebur and asarabacca. Both can damage the kidneys on their own, and stacking that on an injectable antibiotic often given to people who are already quite sick is a risk I would not take lightly.”

About Methyldiazinol

What is Methyldiazinol?

There is no reliable scientific or pharmaceutical information about a substance called "Methyldiazinol." It does not appear to be a recognized herb, dietary supplement, or well-documented compound, so we cannot confirm what it is, whether it works, or whether it is safe. Do not take any product marketed under this name without first verifying its identity and contents with a pharmacist or doctor.

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

Methyldiazinol: dosing

There is no established or safe dose for Methyldiazinol because the substance is not recognized or studied.We cannot recommend any amount. If a product label gives a dose, that does not mean it has been tested for safety.

About Cefotaxime Injection

What Is Cefotaxime Injection Used For?

Brand name: Claforan

Cefotaxime Injection is used to treat serious bacterial infections in many parts of the body — including the lungs, urinary tract, skin, bones and joints, abdomen, reproductive organs, and central nervous system (such as meningitis). It also treats bloodstream infections (septicemia) and certain sexually transmitted infections, including gonorrhea.

It is also given before certain surgeries — such as abdominal or vaginal hysterectomy, gastrointestinal surgery, and cesarean section — to reduce the risk of postoperative infection. Because cefotaxime has no activity against Chlamydia trachomatis, an additional antibiotic must be added when that organism is a suspected cause of pelvic inflammatory disease.
