HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Astragalus Jade Screen by Planetary Herbals

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 12, 2026

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 3 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

Astragalus Jade Screen contains three active ingredients. Astragalus is the primary herb, paired with Bai-Zhu Atractylodes and Siler in a proprietary extract blend.

The liquid form also includes glycerin, purified water, and natural orange flavoring as inactive ingredients.

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: Supports immune defenses.
  • We looked for evidence on: Common cold, Influenza, Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Chemotherapy-induced leukopenia, Immune function, Seasonal immunity — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Astragalus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Astragalus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Chemotherapy-induced leukopenia.
  • Also on file: Atractylodes is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Common cold, Influenza.

The evidence supporting astragalus for conditions like hay fever, asthma, angina, anemia, and irregular periods is insufficient — we don't have reliable data to rate it. The same applies to Bai-Zhu Atractylodes for loss of appetite, cachexia, lung cancer, colds, or diarrhea.

The facts we hold don't establish effectiveness for any of these uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Astragalus Atractylodes

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Astragalus is generally well tolerated when taken short-term by healthy adults, though quality human safety data is limited. Reported side effects — rare in trials — include angina-like chest pain, dizziness, and palpitations; these may or may not have been caused by the herb.

Bai-Zhu Atractylodes has limited safety information but may cause allergic reaction, dry mouth, or nausea. The safety data advises against both ingredients during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Astragalus, Atractylodes.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 976 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.

Before taking this product, double-check if you're on immunosuppressants (to prevent organ rejection or treat autoimmune disease), lithium, blood sugar–lowering drugs, blood thinners, or aromatase inhibitors. Let your pharmacist know if you take any barbiturate sedatives or drugs processed through your liver's CYP1A2 or CYP3A4 pathways.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is best for people without serious health conditions who aren't on immunosuppressants, lithium, diabetes drugs, blood thinners, or certain cancer medications. If you take any prescription, check with us first — the interaction list is long.

Talk to your pharmacist before starting, especially if you're pregnant, nursing, or have a heart condition.

Bai-Zhu Atractylodes5 drug types · 801 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, atractylodes might increase the risk of bleeding when used concomitantly with anticoagulant and antiplatelet drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that atractylenolides II and III, constituents of atractylodes, reduce platelet activation. So far, this has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Aromatase Inhibitors

Theoretically, atractylodes may have an additive effect when used with other aromatase inhibitors.
Laboratory research suggests that atractylodes and its constituents exhibit aromatase inhibitor effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hexobarbital

Theoretically, taking atractylodes may prolong the therapeutic and adverse effects of hexobarbital.
In animals, atractylodes has been shown to prolong the effects of hexobarbital. These effects have not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, atractylodes might decrease the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In animals, atractylodes administered at high doses has been shown to induce CYP1A2 activity. This effect has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, atractylodes might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
In animals, atractylodes administered at high doses has been shown to inhibit CYP3A1 activity, which is a homolog to the human CYP3A4 enzyme. This effect has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Astragalus4 drug types · 208 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking astragalus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Cyclophosphamide

Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with cyclophosphamide therapy.
Evidence regarding the effect of astragalus on immunosuppression caused by cyclophosphamide is conflicting. Some animal research suggests that astragalus reverses cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression. However, other animal research shows no effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
Astragalus seems to stimulate immune function. Theoretically, taking astragalus might decrease the effects of immunosuppressive therapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, astragalus might increase levels and adverse effects of lithium.
Animal research suggests that astragalus has diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to this diuretic effect, astragalus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Limited data exist, but oral use may cause allergic reaction, dry mouth, nausea, or bad taste. A thorough safety review hasn't been completed.
