Four independent checks of what is known — a summary of the available information, not a grade of the product itself.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Acacia Fiber with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Acacia Fiber2 drug types · 2,022 drugs

Amoxicillin (Amoxil, Trimox)

Gum arabic can reduce the absorption of amoxicillin.
A small study in healthy volunteers shows that taking amoxicillin and gum arabic concurrently significantly reduces the absorption of amoxicillin. Separate doses of amoxicillin from gum arabic by at least 2 hours.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Oral Drugs

Theoretically, gum arabic can alter the absorption of oral drugs due to its fiber content.
Gum arabic has been used as a suspending osmotic agent in drug formulations. It might improve bioavailability of water-insoluble drugs like naproxen, but reduce absorption of polar drugs like amoxicillin. To avoid changes in absorption, take gum arabic 30-60 minutes after oral medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
