Common questions

The things people ask most about checking supplement interactions.

Who creates and reviews the interactions I see?
Most of our interaction content is provided by the Natural Medicines database and then reviewed by licensed HelloPharmacist pharmacists, who may add additional detail or clinical context from our team. So each interaction pairs an evidence-based source with a real pharmacist’s review — not opinion.
Where does your interaction data come from?
We build on Natural Medicines — one of the most respected, evidence-graded references for vitamins, herbs, and supplements — together with official product-label data from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD). Our pharmacists curate and review what you see — see our editorial policy for how.
How do you rate the strength of an interaction?
Each interaction is graded major, moderate, or minor based on how clinically significant it is and the quality of the evidence behind it. We explain what the rating means and what to do about it, so you’re not left guessing.
Why search by ingredient instead of a brand or product?
Interactions happen at the ingredient level — it’s the turmeric or St. John’s Wort inside a product that interacts, not the brand on the label. Searching by ingredient catches every product that contains it, so nothing slips through.
Does this tool check drug-drug interactions too?
No — this checker focuses on drug ↔ supplement and herb interactions. To check two medications against each other, use our Drug Interactions tool.
Can medications affect my nutrient levels too?
Yes — some medications have been associated with lower levels of certain vitamins and minerals over time (like metformin and vitamin B12). Our Nutrient Depletion Checker shows the reported associations for your medications and what to discuss with your pharmacist.
Is this a substitute for medical advice?
No. This tool is for information only and may not capture every possible interaction. Always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor before starting, stopping, or changing any medication or supplement.
