HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Agrimony by Maine Coast Herbals
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains a single active ingredient: agrimony, a plant traditionally used in herbal medicine. The capsule also holds gelatin as an inactive ingredient to hold the herb together.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
We don't have effectiveness data on file for agrimony in our database. That doesn't mean it doesn't work—it means the evidence we hold isn't established enough to rate it.
If you're considering it for a specific purpose, your pharmacist can point you toward what research does exist.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Agrimony is generally used in food-like amounts when brewed as a tea, but human safety data are limited, so use it with care. The safety data advise against taking it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know it's safe in those situations.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take antidiabetes drugs—insulin, metformin, or any other blood sugar medication—run this product through the checker below before you start it. The moderate risk is low blood sugar, and your doctor or pharmacist can help you decide whether to use agrimony and how to monitor yourself.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
Agrimony may be worth a conversation if you're interested in herbal support—but if you take diabetes medication, check with your pharmacist first. Pregnant or nursing?
Skip it until you've talked with your doctor or pharmacist.
