Around that, we add a pharmacist’s high-level view of the product as a whole — what’s inside, the evidence for its stated use, how transparent the label is, and what safety data exists — so you can see the full picture in one place. It’s educational information from our licensed clinical databases and the clinical staff at HelloPharmacist — not medical advice — and we don’t sell or endorse products. Our editorial policy

HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Arrowroot by Herbal Terra
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: arrowroot root extract, powdered. Arrowroot is a starch derived from the arrowroot plant's root and has a long history as a food ingredient.
The liquid form also includes alcohol, water, and glycerin as inactive ingredients to deliver the extract.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for arrowroot in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is insufficient to rate — we don't have reliable data showing whether it works for that condition. If IBS relief is why you're considering this, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the science actually supports.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Arrowroot starch is widely eaten as food and is generally well tolerated in normal amounts. However, there isn't enough data on concentrated or medicinal use, so use caution with this product.
In one clinical trial, medicinal doses were reported to cause dyspepsia (indigestion), constipation, and dark stools. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, arrowroot is rated possibly safe, but talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check. That said, run your exact medications through the tool on this page before starting.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Arrowroot is a familiar food ingredient, and this extract is generally well tolerated. The main concern is that we don't have strong evidence it works for IBS, and medicinal amounts haven't been well studied.
If you're interested in it, your pharmacist can help you weigh the unknowns.
