Can oil of oregano be taken at the same time as tinidazole? Flagyl? Xifaxan? I'm assuming not with Cipro since they are so similar. Oil of oregano seems to be helping with my chronic pouchitis; I've been taking it for about a month now. However, last week my pouchitis intensified (ate a few sugar-filled, dangerous items while a friend was visiting. Never again!) so I wanted to increase my antibiotic intake to regain control of pouchitis symptoms.
Thanks for your input,
Laura

I'm glad the oil of oregano is helping you. Products like this are very little researched, though, so drug interaction data will be very incomplete. The only drug interaction I found documented for oregano is with lithium. The rest of your question was confusing - I first thought you were asking about oregano interactions, but then it seemed like tinidazole interactions ( because of your Cipro comment).
Thank you Scott for your input and sorry about the confusion. I was asking about Oregano interactions. I've been taking oil of oregano to replace Cipro.
Exactly what are symptoms of pouchitis? I'm going through a few rough days after indulging a bit too much with Moscow Mules and I'm wondering if this is the aftermath..., thx for any info
Increased frequency, looser stool, intestinal/pouch cramping, bloated more than usual, and tenesmus
