HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Aloe by Herbal Hills
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 one active ingredient: kumari powder, which is aloe. Aloe has been used in herbal medicine for multiple purposes, from skin health to digestive support.
The capsule itself is made from HPMC (a plant-based capsule material) and silicon dioxide, which are inactive ingredients that make up the capsule shell.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence we hold shows aloe is possibly effective for acne, obesity, diabetes, psoriasis, burns, and constipation. That means preliminary research suggests a benefit, but more study is needed to confirm how well it really works for these uses.
If you're considering aloe for one of these purposes, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether the current evidence makes sense for your situation.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Aloe gel applied to skin is generally well tolerated, but oral aloe—especially the latex form—carries more risk, particularly in high doses or over a long time. Common side effects from taking aloe by mouth include belly pain, cramps, and diarrhea.
Long-term or heavy use can lead to diarrhea with low potassium levels, muscle weakness, and in rare cases, serious potassium depletion. The facts advise against taking aloe by mouth during pregnancy because the latex may stimulate the uterus and act as a strong laxative, and against using it while breastfeeding because safety data is limited and the laxative effects could affect an infant.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
If you take digoxin or another heart medication (cardiac glycoside), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, warfarin, diabetes medications, diuretics, other laxatives, or drugs processed through the liver enzyme CYP1A2, run them through the interaction checker before taking this product. The most serious concern is heart medication; the rest are Moderate or Minor but still worth checking.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Aloe is possibly effective for several skin and digestive concerns, but oral aloe latex comes with real interaction risks—especially if you take heart medications, blood thinners, diabetes drugs, or diuretics. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, the safety data advises you to avoid it.
Before you start, check your medications with the tool on this page and talk to your pharmacist about whether it's right for you.

Aloe by Herbal Hills Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Herbal Hills Aloe is a single-ingredient product made from kumari powder (aloe), and it does interact with several medication types.
The most serious concern is with heart medications: aloe latex can increase the risk of toxic effects from digoxin and other cardiac glycosides (heart drugs), especially when aloe is overused, because it may deplete potassium levels and make the drug's effects stronger.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Aloe also has Moderate-severity interactions with blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs—it may raise bleeding risk because laboratory research shows aloe gel can slow down how blood clots. Warfarin (Coumadin) is a particular concern: aloe's laxative effect can cause diarrhea, which boosts warfarin's blood-thinning power and bleeding risk.
You should also watch closely if you take diabetes medications, diuretics (water pills), or other laxatives, as aloe may lower blood sugar further, increase potassium loss, or compound fluid and electrolyte loss when combined with these drugs.
Finally, aloe may decrease how well your body processes certain medications that rely on the liver enzyme CYP1A2 to clear them from your system. Altogether, these interactions span 460 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Aloe with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Kumari powder
Digoxin (Lanoxin)
Theoretically, aloe latex might increase the risk of adverse effects when taken with cardiac glycosides.
Overuse of aloe latex can increase the risk of adverse effects from cardiac glycoside drugs, such as digoxin, due to potassium depletion. Overuse of aloe, along with cardiac glycoside drugs, can increase the risk of toxicity.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, aloe gel might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro research shows that aloe gel can inhibit platelet aggregation. This inhibition was greater than that seen with celecoxib, but less than that seen with aspirin.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Aloe might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Preliminary clinical research suggests aloe gel might lower blood glucose levels and have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.
Diuretic Drugs
Theoretically, aloe latex might increase the risk of hypokalemia when taken with diuretic drugs.
Overuse of aloe latex might compound diuretic-induced potassium loss, increasing the risk of hypokalemia.
Stimulant Laxatives
Theoretically, aloe latex might increase the risk for fluid and electrolyte loss when taken with stimulant laxatives.
Due to cathartic laxative effects of aloe latex, concomitant use with other stimulant laxatives might compound fluid and electrolyte loss.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, aloe latex might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with warfarin.
Aloe latex has stimulant laxative effects. In some people aloe latex can cause diarrhea. Diarrhea can increase the effects of warfarin, increase international normalized ratio (INR), and increase the risk of bleeding. Advise patients who take warfarin not to take excessive amounts of aloe vera.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, aloe might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that aloe extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
