HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Artemisinin 200 mg by Double Wood Supplements
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: artemisinin 200 mg per capsule, derived from Sweet Annie. It also contains two inactive ingredients — hypromellose and rice flour — which serve as capsule material and filler to help deliver the dose.
Artemisinin is the compound historically used in traditional medicine and studied for immune and inflammatory support. The 200 mg dose is a single, straightforward formulation with no added herbs or cofactors.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
For allergic rhinitis (hay fever), artemisinin carries a Possibly Effective rating — there's some evidence, but it's not conclusive. For nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), malaria, and osteoarthritis, the evidence isn't established well enough in the data we hold to rate it reliably.
If you're considering artemisinin for any condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what the current research actually supports for your specific situation.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Orally, artemisinin is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are nausea and vomiting in trial participants.
Rarely, liver damage (hepatotoxicity) has been reported — one documented case involved liver inflammation after taking 200 mg three times daily for 10 days, though it's unclear whether artemisinin caused it or another factor was responsible. A mild allergic reaction (rash and cough) has been reported once.
Because of the liver concern and the fact that dosing and quality vary widely across supplements, don't use artemisinin as a replacement for proven medical treatments without your doctor's input. Artemisinin should be avoided during pregnancy because of possible harm to a developing baby.
It should also be avoided while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety information. If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your healthcare provider before considering this product.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking artemisinin, check with your pharmacist if you take any hepatotoxic drugs (medications that can harm the liver), or any drugs metabolized by the liver enzymes CYP3A4 or CYP2B6 — the interactions are Moderate for all three categories and may change how well your medications work or increase liver stress.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Artemisinin may help with hay fever symptoms, but it interacts with a very large number of medications through liver metabolism and carries a moderate risk with drugs that can damage the liver itself. If you take any prescription or over-the-counter medications, check them against this product using the tool on this page before starting.
And because it's not a proven treatment for serious conditions like malaria or fatty liver disease, it shouldn't replace standard care.

Artemisinin 200 mg by Double Wood Supplements Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Artemisinin 200 mg by Double Wood Supplements interacts with a significant number of medications through its effects on how your liver processes drugs.
The most serious concern is with hepatotoxic drugs (medications that can damage the liver) — using artemisinin alongside them carries a Moderate risk of additive liver damage, since artemisinin itself can affect liver function.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Artemisinin also alters how your body metabolizes drugs broken down by two key liver enzymes: CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 substrates. Both interactions are rated Moderate.
The supplement can induce (speed up) these enzymes, potentially lowering the blood levels and effectiveness of your medications, though the full picture is complex because other components of Sweet Annie may work differently.
Altogether, these interactions span 870 individual medications. Before you start artemisinin, use the interaction checker on this page with your exact prescriptions — especially if you take anything for the liver, heart, blood pressure, or any drug your doctor said has a narrow safety margin.

Artemisinin
Cytochrome P450 2B6 (Cyp2B6) Substrates
Sweet Annie may alter plasma levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP2B6.
In vitro research shows that the Sweet Annie constituent artemisinin induces CYP2B6, possibly increasing CYP2B6 activity by 1.6-fold. However, Sweet Annie extract seems to inhibit the activity of CYP2B6 in vitro, suggesting that other constituents of Sweet Annie play a role in its effects on the overall activity of this enzyme. More information is needed to determine whether taking Sweet Annie extract affects the metabolism of CYP2B6 substrates.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Sweet Annie may alter plasma levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that the Sweet Annie constituent artemisinin induces CYP3A4, possibly increasing CYP3A4 activity by 1.9-fold. However, Sweet Annie extract seems to inhibit the activity of CYP3A4 in vitro, suggesting that other constituents of Sweet Annie play a role in its effects on the overall activity of this enzyme. More information is needed to determine whether taking Sweet Annie extract affects the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
Hepatotoxic Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use might have additive adverse hepatotoxic effects.
There is some concern that Sweet Annie can adversely affect the liver.
