Yes, you can have these items in cooked food, as the properties of these become very mild after cooking. Also give a gap of 30-60 min before and after between food and medicine.
Avoid these things raw.

Hello
You can definitely have them no need to stop them completely it won’t react with the medicine effect
See as you mentioned the above food items, they have over powering taste and smell - if we talk about onion to the taste of onion remains in mouth even after we finish our meal — the simple logic is Homoeopathy medicine starts working from your tongue now if you had something from them it’s effect gets less.
If you just clean your mouth and have the medicines after an 1hr or better take medicine half n hr before food.

You can take it but there should be gap between medicine and between the things you eat....
Because that will reduce medicine effect if you don't maintain the gap....
