Drug & supplement interaction

Wormwood + Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

Dalbavancin Hydrochloride brand name: Dalvance.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 27, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Wormwood and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride 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.

Wormwood and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

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 Dalbavancin Hydrochloride and Wormwood 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.

Wormwood safety at a glance

Wormwood overall Use caution Short-term use of properly prepared products may be acceptable, but the thujone in wormwood can be toxic in higher amounts.
Pregnancy Avoid Wormwood may stimulate the uterus and is considered unsafe during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid There is not enough safety information, so it is best avoided while breastfeeding.

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

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Dalbavancin Hydrochloride

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Dalbavancin Hydrochloride is filed under a single classification — antibiotic drugs. Wormwood has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being anticonvulsants (moderate) — and none of Dalbavancin Hydrochloride’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.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Wormwood and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride 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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dalbavancin Hydrochloride page

“Everything on the dalbavancin (Dalvance) interaction list points in one direction. No supplement on file makes this IV skin-infection antibiotic dangerous or weaker; instead, dalbavancin can kill the live organisms in probiotic products, so the supplement is the one that loses.”

About Wormwood

What is Wormwood?

Wormwood
  • Digestive upset and poor appetite
  • Intestinal parasites
  • Crohn's disease symptoms
  • Bitter tonic for indigestion
  • Flavoring in absinthe and vermouth

Wormwood is a very bitter herb traditionally used to stimulate appetite and ease digestion, and it has early research interest in Crohn's disease. It contains thujone, which can be toxic in large amounts, so it should only be used short-term in controlled doses. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it, and avoid it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Artemisia absinthium · Asteraceae · Leaves, flowering tops, and essential oil · Tea, tincture, capsules, extracts, essential oil

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

Wormwood: dosing

There is no well-established standard dose of wormwood, and safe amounts depend on the form and how much thujone it contains. It is usually used only for short periods.If you choose to use a wormwood product, follow the directions on the label and choose a reputable brand. Do not exceed the recommended amount, avoid long-term use, and never take the concentrated essential oil by mouth.

Taking Wormwood and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Wormwood with Dalbavancin Hydrochloride?

Do Wormwood and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 3 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other.

How was the Wormwood and Dalbavancin Hydrochloride combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Dalbavancin Hydrochloride is filed under 1 classification, and Wormwood has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Dalbavancin Hydrochloride's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Wormwood interact with any other medications?
Yes. Wormwood has 50 documented drug interactions in our database — Dalbavancin Hydrochloride is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Dalbavancin Hydrochloride interact with any supplements?
