HelloPharmacist Scorecard of American Ginseng 300 mg by Swanson Superior Herbs
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 2 active ingredients: American Ginseng and American Ginseng root extract. Both are forms of the same plant and work the same way in your body.
The inactive ingredients — gelatin, maltodextrin, rice extract, and silica — are fillers and capsule materials that don't have a therapeutic role.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
American ginseng is possibly effective for upper respiratory tract infections (the common cold and similar illnesses). For anemia of chronic disease and breast cancer, we don't have enough reliable evidence yet to rate whether it works.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Short-term use is generally well tolerated in healthy adults, but quality and strength vary between products, and long-term safety hasn't been well studied. Headache has been reported with American ginseng use.
Because of insufficient safety data and some lab concerns, this supplement should be avoided during pregnancy. There's also too little known about its safety while breastfeeding, so the safer choice is to avoid it.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before you take this, double-check if you're on warfarin (Coumadin) — this is a Major interaction. Also flag any diabetes medications, immune suppressants, or MAOIs (older antidepressants like phenelzine).
If you take any of these, talk with your pharmacist.
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.
American ginseng might be worth considering if you're trying to prevent or shorten a cold and you don't take warfarin, diabetes medications, immune suppressants, or MAOIs. If you take any prescription medication, check it against this product first — especially blood thinners and diabetes drugs.
Talk to your pharmacist before starting.

American Ginseng 300 mg by Swanson Superior Herbs Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
American Ginseng 300 mg by Swanson Superior Herbs does interact with several medication types, and the most serious concern is with blood thinners.
American ginseng seems to reduce how well warfarin (Coumadin) works, lowering your blood clotting levels even while you're on a steady dose. This is a Major interaction — if you take warfarin, you'll need to talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
There are also Moderate interactions to watch for. American ginseng may lower your blood sugar more than intended if you're on diabetes medications, raising the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
It could theoretically reduce how well immune-suppressing drugs work, since ginseng seems to boost immune function. And if you take an older antidepressant called an MAOI (monoamine oxidase inhibitor) — drugs like phenelzine (Nardil) — there's a case report of insomnia, headaches, tremors, and mood changes when ginseng was combined with one.
Altogether, these interactions span 212 individual medications. Use the medication checker on this page to look up your exact prescriptions before you start.
