The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tomato and Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate 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.

Tomato and Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate

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 Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate and Tomato 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 Tomato at all — not against Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate, 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 Tomato Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate. It is the side-effect record for Tomato on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Tomato, this list is the first place to look. One entry is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A slow heartbeat Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, tomato leaves and ripe or unripe tomato fruit are well tolerated in typical food amounts. Tomato extracts also seem to be well tolerated. Tomatine, a glycoalkaloid found in tomato leaves and unripe green tomatoes, can cause serious side effects when consumed in excessive amounts.

    Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Tomato — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We haven’t matched Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate to its FDA label in our system yet, so we can’t compare its own side-effect list here — the leaflet that comes with your prescription is the authoritative list for Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate.

Special populations

Tomato in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy And Lactation Likely Safe

Overlapping uses

What Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate Is Prescribed For, and What Tomato Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Tomato is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate is prescribed for: Most calcium carbonate products are used as an antacid — they quickly relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, sour stomach, and upset stomach. This covers a wide range of brands including Tums, Rolaids, CAREONE Extra Strength, Calcium Carbonate Chewable Antacid, exchange select Extra Strength Antacid, Extra Strength Smooth, and the Children's Antacid and Children's Stomach Relief Antacid liquids. Some products go beyond antacid use. Ki No Sin (capsule) is used as a health supplement to aid body functions affected by diabetes and kidney disease, and to help maintain normal calcium levels.

Na Mi Cal is a supplement intended to support healthy bone development and help prevent osteoporosis. TC Max oral solution is indicated for the relief of heartburn, acid indigestion, sour stomach, and upset stomach.

Tomato has been studied for:

  • Diabetes studied, not established Tomato has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Possibly Ineffective Read what the research shows

    Tomato for diabetes

    Consuming tomatoes and tomato-based products does not appear to prevent the development of type 2 diabetes or improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate on your own; if you are taking Tomato for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate

This page covers Tomato only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate page lists 35 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Calcium (moderate), Cinchona (moderate), Coffee Charcoal (moderate) and European Mandrake (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 14 moderate · 20 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dihydroxyaluminum Sodium Carbonate page

“Rolaids (dihydroxyaluminum sodium carbonate) sits in plenty of medicine cabinets, yet its interaction list earns genuine caution rather than a shrug. Of 35 supplement and herbal ingredients on file, the lone major rating belongs to activated charcoal, which adsorbs many medications and can strip away their effect.”

About Tomato

What is Tomato?

  • Heart health support
  • Prostate health
  • Antioxidant support
  • Skin protection from sun damage
  • General nutrition

Tomato is a common food rich in vitamins, potassium, and the antioxidant lycopene, and eating it as part of a balanced diet is healthy for most people. Concentrated tomato or lycopene supplements are marketed for heart and prostate health, but the evidence is mixed and far from proven. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using high-dose supplements, especially if you are pregnant or have a medical condition.

Solanum lycopersicum · Solanaceae · Fruit (and extracts such as lycopene from the fruit and skin) · Whole fruit, juice, paste, tomato extract capsules, lycopene supplements

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

Tomato: dosing

There is no official standardized dose of tomato or lycopene supplements, and a proven effective amount has not been established. Tomatoes are best enjoyed simply as part of a balanced diet.If you choose to use a tomato extract or lycopene supplement, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed the recommended amount.
