Anecdotally, I've been using loctite C5A (copper anti-seize) on lug nuts for years without an issue. I also torque them to the manufacturer spec with a torque wrench twice a year (when I switch summer/winter tires).

The amount is also a tiny dab, half a drop is plenty. I don't use a torque wrench, just give em a hard twist, lower the tire to contact the ground, then twist them all again just to be sure.
