Pellitory-of-the-wall and Cefepime

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 Cefepime and Pellitory-of-the-wall 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 Pellitory-of-the-wall at all — not against Cefepime, 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 Cefepime’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Pellitory-of-the-wall. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Cefepime’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.

  • Hallucinations Worth acting on
  • Confusion Worth acting on
  • A severe skin reaction Worth acting on
  • Seizures Worth acting on
  • A low platelet count Worth acting on
  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Hives Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
  • Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on

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

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Cefepime

This page covers Pellitory-of-the-wall only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Cefepime page lists 43 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 · 2 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Cefepime page

“Cefepime (Maxipime) is a strong hospital antibiotic reserved for serious infections, and its interaction list warrants genuine caution, led by two major-rated herbs that can harm the kidneys: Siberian cocklebur and asarabacca, which is often contaminated with aristolochic acid, a kidney toxin the FDA considers unsafe. That matters more…”

About Pellitory-of-the-wall

What is Pellitory-of-the-wall?

  • Urinary tract complaints
  • Kidney and bladder stones
  • Mild diuretic ('water pill') effect
  • Cough and sore throat
  • Minor wound care (traditional topical use)

Pellitory-of-the-wall is a wild plant traditionally used as a diuretic and for urinary and kidney complaints, but modern human studies are very limited and do not confirm these uses. It is best known as a strong allergen (its pollen triggers hay fever), so people prone to allergies should be careful. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it.

Parietaria officinalis · Urticaceae · Aerial parts (leaves and stems) · Tea, liquid extract, tincture, dried herb

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

Pellitory-of-the-wall: dosing

There is no well-established or standardized dose for pellitory-of-the-wall. Traditional use as a tea or extract varies widely, and reliable dosing guidance from clinical research is not available.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

About Cefepime Injection

What Is Cefepime Injection Used For?

Brand name: Maxipime

Cefepime injection is used to treat a range of serious bacterial infections in adults and children. These include moderate-to-severe pneumonia, uncomplicated and complicated urinary tract infections (including pyelonephritis, a kidney infection), uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections, and empiric therapy (treatment started before a specific germ is confirmed) for fever in patients with very low white blood cell counts (febrile neutropenia).

In adults, cefepime injection is also used to treat complicated intra-abdominal infections — but only when given together with another antibiotic called metronidazole. The intramuscular (IM) route is indicated only for mild-to-moderate uncomplicated or complicated urinary tract infections caused by E. coli.
