Brief Answer:
None of them is known to interact with Cefdinir...

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Thank you for sharing with us your concern.

Turmeric usually interacts with blood thinning and NSAIDs (non-steroidal-anti-inflammatory drugs).
Cefdinir is an antibiotic of the cephalosporin drug group. It is used to treat bacterial infection only.

Oregano oil is not known to interact with Cefdinir.

However, I advise to use these supplements at least 1 or 2 hours before using Cefdinir.

Hope this answers your query.
