No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Phlorizin and Midazolam 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.

Phlorizin and Midazolam

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 Midazolam and Phlorizin 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 Midazolam

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Midazolam is filed under 6 classifications — including benzodiazepines, anesthesia, cns depressants. Phlorizin has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being antidiabetes drugs (moderate) — and none of Midazolam’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 Midazolam’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Phlorizin. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Midazolam’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.

  • Cough
  • Drowsiness
  • Vomiting
  • Nausea

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Midazolam. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 29,268 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Midazolam that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Phlorizin’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Phlorizin side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Phlorizin has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Midazolam page

“Sedation stacked on sedation is the headline risk with midazolam (Versed, Seizalam, Nayzilam). Midazolam is a benzodiazepine used for sedation and seizure emergencies, and 78 of the 202 interacting ingredients here, beer and wine included, add their own drowsiness, which can slide into dangerously slowed breathing.”

About Phlorizin

What is Phlorizin?

  • Blood sugar support
  • Diabetes research
  • Antioxidant
  • Weight management interest

Phlorizin is a natural plant compound (a dihydrochalcone) found in apple tree bark and other plants that has been studied mostly in the laboratory for its effects on blood sugar handling. There is no good human evidence that taking it as a supplement is safe or effective, and it is poorly absorbed when swallowed. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using any product containing it.

Root bark, bark, and leaves of apple trees and related Rosaceae plants · Purified compound (research chemical), capsules, powders

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

Phlorizin: dosing

There is no established or standardized dose of phlorizin for supplement use in humans. It has mainly been used in research settings at carefully controlled amounts, not as a routine oral supplement.If you choose to use a product that contains phlorizin or apple bark extract, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed the recommended amount.

About Midazolam

What Is Midazolam Used For?

Brand names: Versed, Seizalam, Nayzilam

Midazolam is used in several different forms depending on the setting. Injectable midazolam (given by IV or IM shot) is used before and during surgery or procedures — such as endoscopy, cardiac catheterization, or bronchoscopy — to cause sedation, reduce anxiety, and prevent memory of the event. It can also be used to start general anesthesia or to keep heavily sedated, ventilated patients comfortable in a critical care unit. Midazolam HCl oral syrup is used specifically in children for sedation and anxiety relief before procedures or anesthesia induction, in a monitored medical setting only.

Nayzilam nasal spray is indicated for a different purpose: the acute treatment of seizure clusters (also called acute repetitive seizures) in people aged 12 and older who have epilepsy. It is used intermittently — not as a daily seizure medicine — when a cluster of seizures breaks through the person's usual pattern.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Midazolam

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (29,268 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Seizure 1,697 reports
Hypotension 1,591 reports
