Does bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) tnteract with saw palmetto, plant sterol, and selinum? My husband is taking bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) for prostate infection. And natural supplements

Drug Interaction. Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) does not interact with saw palmetto but my interaction checker does not bring up selinium. Talk to your local pharmacist.
