Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Mormon Tea and Omadacycline (Oral)

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 Omadacycline (Oral) and Mormon Tea 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 Mormon Tea at all — not against Omadacycline (Oral), 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.

Mormon Tea safety at a glance

Mormon Tea overall Use caution Generally considered milder than Asian ephedra, but human safety data are limited.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety information, and ephedra-related plants are best avoided during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid There is no reliable safety data, so avoid use while breastfeeding.

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

What to actually watch for

What Mormon Tea Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Omadacycline (Oral). It is the side-effect record for Mormon Tea on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Mormon Tea, this list is the first place to look.

  • Stomach upset / Constipation Additional detail

    “Orally, Mormon tea might cause gastrointestinal disturbances such as constipation due to its tannin content (12,515).”

    Mormon Tea · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in constipation.

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

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Omadacycline (Oral) page

“Omadacycline (Nuzyra) is a tetracycline-class antibiotic, and its list of 41 interacting supplements calls for real care rather than a quick skim. Two entries rate major and deserve to be understood first.”

About Mormon Tea

What is Mormon Tea?

  • Caffeine-free beverage
  • Kidney and urinary complaints
  • Cold and congestion relief
  • Mild digestive upset
  • General tonic

Mormon Tea is a traditional Southwestern desert beverage made from a North American Ephedra plant that, unlike Asian ephedra, is generally thought to lack ephedrine. There is very little modern scientific evidence to support any specific health benefit, so it is mostly used as a mild, caffeine-free herbal drink. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a medical condition.

Ephedra nevadensis · Ephedraceae · Dried stems and twigs · Tea (dried herb), capsules, loose dried stems

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

Mormon Tea: dosing

There is no established standardized dose for Mormon Tea. Traditionally, a small amount of dried stems is steeped in hot water and drunk as a tea, but the strength of homemade or commercial products can vary widely.If you choose to use it, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed them. Because the active content is uncertain, start low and avoid frequent or large amounts.

About Omadacycline Injection

What Is Omadacycline Injection Used For?

Brand name: Nuzyra

Nuzyra (omadacycline) injection is used in adults to treat two types of serious bacterial infections: community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) — a lung infection picked up outside of a hospital — and acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI), which include serious skin infections such as those caused by MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus).

Nuzyra works only against bacterial infections. It is not effective against viral illnesses like the flu or common cold. Your doctor will prescribe it only when a bacterial infection is confirmed or strongly suspected, to help prevent the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
