HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Andrographis Herb by Mountain Meadow 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
Low disclosure
This product contains three active ingredients: Glycerin, Grain Alcohol, and Water, Distilled, plus Andrographis Herb Extract as the main botanical component. Glycerin is included for its own effects; the grain alcohol serves as a preservative and extraction solvent typical of herbal liquid preparations.
There are no inactive fillers or other added ingredients listed.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The effectiveness data we hold covers glycerin only, which is rated Likely Effective for constipation and Possibly Effective for athletic performance and a skin condition called ichthyosis (fish-scale-like skin). It is rated Possibly Ineffective or Likely Ineffective for meningitis, prematurity, and stroke.
We hold no effectiveness ratings in our data for Andrographis Herb Extract itself, so we cannot tell you what evidence supports its use.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Glycerin is generally well tolerated in normal amounts, though large oral doses can cause stomach upset, bloating, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and headache. The safety data for medicinal doses of glycerin in this product is limited, so talk to your doctor before using it at higher amounts.
Pregnancy and lactation safety data for the ingredients in this product is not on file.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check. That said, we hold no interaction data for Grain Alcohol or Water, Distilled, so run your exact medications through the search tool on this page if you want to be thorough.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
This product may be helpful if you're taking it for constipation. If you're considering it for other reasons or you take any prescription medications, check with your pharmacist first — especially if you need to know about the grain alcohol content.
There's no safety information on file for pregnancy or breastfeeding, so discuss that with your doctor if it applies to you.
Educational only — not medical advice; always confirm with your pharmacist. Our editorial policy · How we use AI

For each ingredient in Andrographis Herb 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.
Andrographis Herb Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, andrographis might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal and laboratory studies suggest that andrographis has antiplatelet effects.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, andrographis might increase the risk of hypotension when used with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that andrographis has hypotensive effects.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, andrographis might interfere with the effects of immunosuppressive drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that andrographolide has immunostimulant activity.
Celecoxib (Celebrex)
Theoretically, andrographis extract might increase the maximum concentration and time to peak concentration of celecoxib. The clinical significance of these changes is unclear.
Animal research suggests that andrographis extract taken orally increases the maximum concentration and time to peak concentration of celecoxib but does not appear to impact the area under the curve.
Etoricoxib (Arcoxia)
Theoretically, andrographis might decrease the absorption of etoricoxib, although the clinical significance is unclear.
Animal research shows that andrographis extract, or the constituent andrographolide, taken orally with etoricoxib decreases the bioavailability of etoricoxib. However, this reduced bioavailability is not correlated with a reduction in the anti-inflammatory effects of etoricoxib in arthritic mice models. The clinical significance of this interaction is unclear.
Glipizide (Glucotrol)
Theoretically, andrographis extract might increase the maximum concentration and area under the curve of glipizide; however, opposite effects are seen with the constituent, andrographolide. The clinical significance of this interaction is unclear.
Animal research suggests that andrographis extract taken orally with glipizide in diabetes-induced rats increases the maximum concentration and area under the curve of glipizide. However, the opposite effect is seen with the constituent, andrographolide, in which the maximum concentration and area under the curve are decreased when taken with glipizide.
