Snap the Supplement Facts panel. We read every active ingredient and check each one against your meds instantly, using our pharmacist-reviewed drug–supplement interaction database — vitamins, herbals and natural products included.
🛡️ Where does our data come from? ›
Interaction data is licensed from the Natural Medicines database — the professional
reference relied on by pharmacists and hospitals. Dietary supplement and ingredient data comes
from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD), mixed with our own proprietary
supplement database — all reviewed by our licensed pharmacists.

📸 Snap the Supplement Facts panel
Usually on the back. Straight-on, good light, whole panel in frame.
🔄 Flip the bottle over first
We read the Supplement Facts table — it’s almost always on the back. The front of the bottle doesn’t list what we need to check.
✗ Not the front

Thanks for using HelloPharmacist!
Everything here is free to use — no account, no sign-up, no charge, ever. We grow by word of mouth, so if we've helped you, sharing us with someone who'd find it useful is the best way to keep us going. 🙏
Take a photo with your phone camera (or upload one) of the label’s Supplement Facts panel. The scanner reads the product name, brand, and every active ingredient printed on the label — vitamins, minerals, herbals, and other natural-product ingredients alike.
Confirm what it read, add your medications
The ingredients appear as chips you can edit, add to, or remove — and anything we can’t match to our interaction database is flagged before the check, so you always know exactly what is (and isn’t) being checked. Then add your prescription or over-the-counter medications.
Check the interactions
Every confirmed ingredient is checked against every medication using our licensed, pharmacist-reviewed drug–supplement interaction database. Results are grouped by medication with severity ratings, a plain-English rundown, and a pharmacist explanation for each documented interaction.
The whole check usually takes under a minute, right from your phone.
Common questions
Does this work for vitamins, herbals, and other natural products? ›
Yes — anything with a Supplement Facts panel: multivitamins, single herbs, botanical blends, greens and protein powders, and other natural products. Every active ingredient we can read is checked individually, and anything we can't match to our interaction database is clearly flagged as unchecked — never silently skipped.
Where does the interaction data come from? ›
Interaction results come from the licensed Natural Medicines database — the professional reference used by pharmacists and hospitals — with supplement and ingredient data from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) and our own pharmacist-reviewed supplement database. The camera only reads your label; every interaction verdict comes from that database.
Do you store my label photo? ›
Label photos may be stored securely and reviewed by our pharmacy team to keep the scanner accurate. They are never made public and are used only to improve the tool.
Is this medical advice? ›
No — the scanner is an educational reference to help you have a better conversation about your supplements and medications. Always confirm anything it finds with your own pharmacist or prescriber before changing what you take.
How much does it cost? ›
Nothing. The scanner is free with no account or sign-up, built by the licensed pharmacists behind HelloPharmacist.
