Roman Chamomile + Dantrolene

Dantrolene brand names: Dantrium, Dantrium Intravenous.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Roman Chamomile and Dantrolene 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Interaction report

Roman Chamomile and Dantrolene

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 Dantrolene and Roman Chamomile 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 Roman Chamomile at all — not against Dantrolene, 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

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Roman Chamomile and Dantrolene May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do. One of them is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • An allergic reaction Worth acting on Additional detail

    Roman Chamomile

    “Topically, Roman chamomile can cause contact dermatitis (4,567,97292). Allergic skin reactions can occur in up to 20% of individuals exposed to Roman chamomile (19). Multiple case reports have described the development of topical allergic reactions, including eczema and rash, with the use of cleaning products and cosmetics containing chamomile oil or chamomile extract.”

About Roman Chamomile

What is Roman Chamomile?

  • Digestive upset
  • Anxiety and relaxation
  • Sleep support
  • Skin irritation
  • Menstrual cramps

Roman chamomile is a daisy-family herb used traditionally as a calming tea and as an oil for digestion, mild anxiety, and skin comfort. Solid human evidence is limited for most uses, but it is generally considered safe in food and tea amounts for most adults. People allergic to ragweed and related plants should be cautious, and pregnant or breastfeeding people should check with a doctor first.

Chamaemelum nobile · Asteraceae · Flowers (and essential oil) · Tea, capsules, liquid extract, essential oil, topical creams

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

Roman Chamomile: dosing

There is no official standardized dose for Roman chamomile. The amount varies widely depending on the product and the form (tea, capsule, or extract).A common traditional use is one cup of chamomile tea made from the dried flowers, taken up to a few times a day. For capsules or liquid extracts, follow the directions on the product label, since strengths differ between brands.

About Dantrolene

What Is Dantrolene Used For?

Brand names: Dantrium, Dantrium Intravenous

Dantrolene sodium capsules (Dantrium, Dantrolene Sodium) are used by mouth to control spasticity — painful or disabling muscle stiffness and spasms — caused by upper motor neuron disorders such as spinal cord injury, stroke, cerebral palsy, or multiple sclerosis. They are not used for muscle spasm from arthritis or other rheumatic conditions. Oral capsules are also used before and after surgery to prevent or reduce the risk of malignant hyperthermia in patients known to be susceptible.

For an active malignant hyperthermia crisis — a sudden, dangerous overheating of the muscles triggered by certain anesthetics — the intravenous (IV) forms are given in the hospital. Dantrium Intravenous, Revonto, Ryanodex, and Dantrolene injection are all indicated to treat a malignant hyperthermia crisis and may also be given before surgery to help prevent one in high-risk patients.

Taking Roman Chamomile and Dantrolene Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Roman Chamomile with Dantrolene?

Do Roman Chamomile and Dantrolene have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 2 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other.
