A medication reference built from the interaction graph. It is not prescribing information — the label and your prescriber are.
Interactions
Documented pairings with supplements and medicines. A medicine on this list is a conversation for whoever prescribes it.
MagnesiumMind the timing
Chelates quinolones/tetracyclines — separate by 2+ hours.
ZincMind the timing
Chelates quinolones/tetracyclines — separate 2+ hours.
ProbioticsMind the timing
Take 2+ hours from doses; continue 2 weeks after the course.
Saccharomyces BoulardiiMind the timing
Survives antibiotics (a yeast) — take through the course.
The evidence in words
What it is
Drugs that kill or stop bacteria — short courses with long gut shadows.
How it works
Some are chelated (bound and inactivated) by minerals in the gut; all disrupt the microbiome.
What it's used for
Bacterial infections.
Supplement & drug interactions
Antibiotics has 4 documented interactions mapped below and in the interactions graph. Timing rules: minerals (magnesium, zinc, iron, calcium) chelate quinolones and tetracyclines — separate by 2+ hours. Probiotics (taken 2+ hours apart, continued 2 weeks after) reduce antibiotic-associated diarrhea.
The rule
This is a medication reference for spotting interactions, not dosing advice. Every change to a supplement stack around a prescription belongs with the person who prescribes it.
