Charcoal may reduce the blood levels and effects of methionine. Contact your doctor if your condition changes. You may not be able to use charcoal if you are receiving methionine for the treatment of acetaminophen overdose. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of oral methionine and activated charcoal may reduce the efficacy of methionine in the treatment of acetaminophen overdose. The mechanism is absorption of methionine by activated charcoal in the stomach.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use should either be avoided, or the activated charcoal should be cleared from the stomach before methionine is administered.
