HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Angiplex by UNDA Plex

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 8 active ingredients.

Angiplex has 8 ingredients total. The active ones are aconite, Apis mellifica, Arum triphyllum, belladonna (deadly nightshade), potassium (Kalium Bichromium), Lachesis mutus, Mercurius Solubilis, and pokeweed (Phytolacca Decandra).

The product also contains inactive ingredients — lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and xylitol — which are fillers and binders.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: temporary relief of sore throat and dry throat.
  • We looked for evidence on: Pharyngitis, throat pain, difficulty swallowing, laryngitis.
  • The closest evidence on file: Arum is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Pharyngitis (Natural Medicines).

The evidence supporting Angiplex's effectiveness is not established in our data. For aconite, the product lists insufficient evidence for pneumonia, Raynaud syndrome, alopecia areata, and COVID-19.

For Arum, we have insufficient evidence for pharyngitis. Belladonna shows insufficient evidence for asthma, common cold, hemorrhoids, IBS, kidney stones, and Parkinson disease.

No effectiveness ratings are on file for the other active ingredients.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Aconite Arum Belladonna Potassium Pokeweed

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 5 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Angiplex contains several ingredients with serious safety concerns. Aconite is extremely toxic and can be fatal even in small doses — safety data advise against it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Arum (Arum triphyllum) is toxic with no established safe doses; the raw plant causes burning, swelling, and bloody vomiting or diarrhea. Belladonna is poisonous outside regulated products and causes anticholinergic side effects like blurred vision, constipation, dilated pupils, and delirium even at low doses — avoid it in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Pokeweed is toxic with no safe use established and has caused serious poisonings; avoid it in pregnancy and lactation. Potassium (Kalium Bichromicum) is generally well-tolerated from food and considered likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, but supplements can raise blood potassium to dangerous levels — especially in people with kidney disease — causing arrhythmias and cardiac arrest.

We could not check safety data for Apis mellifica, Lachesis mutus, or Mercurius Solubilis.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 4 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Arum, Belladonna, Aconite, Potassium.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 482 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Check with your pharmacist before using Angiplex if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin or aspirin), stimulants, potassium-sparing diuretics (like spironolactone), ACE inhibitors (like lisinopril), angiotensin receptor blockers (like losartan), anticholinergic drugs, cisapride, or iron supplements. The potassium content and aconite content pose the most serious risks with certain medication types.

For each ingredient in Angiplex with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Aconitum napellus2 drug types · 278 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, combining aconite with other antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.
Higenamine, a constituent of aconite, is thought to have antiplatelet and antithrombotic effects. In an animal model of thrombosis, higenamine inhibited platelet aggregation and reduced the size of thrombus formation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Stimulant Drugs

Theoretically, combining aconite with other stimulant drugs might alter the effects of the stimulant drug or increase the risk of cardiovascular toxicity.
Aconite and its constituents have stimulant effects due to agonist activity at beta-2-adrenoreceptors. In cardiac muscle, aconite appears to have a positive inotropic effect and increases heart rate and blood pressure. However, some constituents of aconite can reduce heart rate and blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Aconitum napellus full monograph & interactions

Deadly Nightshade2 drug types · 196 drugs

Anticholinergic Drugs

Belladonna may increase the risk of adverse effects when used concomitantly with anticholinergic drugs.
Belladonna has anticholinergic activity and increases the activity of anticholinergic drugs.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Cisapride (Propulsid)

Theoretically, belladonna might reduce the effects of cisapride.
Belladonna contains atropine. In vivo evidence suggests that atropine can prevent cisapride from increasing motility in the gastrointestinal tract.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Deadly Nightshade full monograph & interactions

Kalium Bichromium3 drug types · 62 drugs

Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)

Using ACEIs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Arbs)

Using ARBs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics

Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
Kalium Bichromium full monograph & interactions

Arum triphyllum1 drug type · 1 drug

Iron

Arum contains oxalate, which can bind to multivalent metal ions in the gastrointestinal tract, such as iron, and reduce their absorption.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Angiplex contains 8 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is this safe to take while I'm pregnant?
No — safety data advise against it. Aconite, arum, belladonna, and pokeweed are all unsafe in pregnancy due to toxicity risks. Even the potassium component should only be taken under medical guidance during pregnancy. Do not use this product if you're pregnant.
Can I breastfeed while taking Angiplex?
No — safety data advise against it. Aconite, arum, belladonna, and pokeweed are all unsafe while breastfeeding because their toxic compounds can pass to the baby. Check with your doctor before using any potassium supplement while nursing.
What are the most common side effects?
The main ingredients carry serious risks. Aconite can cause heart palpitations, chest tightness, arrhythmias, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, dizziness, numbness, and seizures. Arum causes burning of the mouth, swollen tongue and lips, and bloody vomiting or diarrhea. Belladonna causes blurred vision, dry mouth, constipation, dilated pupils, dizziness, and confusion. High potassium can cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and dangerous heart rhythm changes.
Does this product actually work?
We don't have evidence that it does. For the ingredients we checked, the data show insufficient reliable evidence to support use for pneumonia, Raynaud syndrome, alopecia areata, COVID-19, pharyngitis, asthma, common cold, hemorrhoids, IBS, kidney stones, or Parkinson disease.
What's in Angiplex — does it have fillers?
Yes, it has inactive ingredients: lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and xylitol. These are fillers and binders that help hold the tablet together.
