HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Avocado by Hawaii Pharm
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: wildcrafted Avocado extract. Avocado has been studied primarily for cholesterol and metabolic health.
The liquid also includes vegetable palm glycerin, pharmaceutical-grade alcohol, and artesian Hawaiian purified water as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence supports avocado extract as possibly effective for high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia). For metabolic syndrome, aging skin, and obesity, the research we have isn't strong enough to rate it one way or the other — we just don't have enough reliable data yet.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Avocado as a food is widely eaten and generally well tolerated. When taken as a concentrated supplement or extract, the safety picture is less clear — especially in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, where there hasn't been enough study.
In rare cases, avocado can trigger allergic reactions in people with latex allergies, or cause a serious gastrointestinal reaction called FPIES (food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome), mostly reported in infants and young children, marked by vomiting within 1 to 4 hours and diarrhea. Topical products containing avocado oil have caused itching in some people.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner, double-check with your pharmacist before starting this product — avocado may reduce how well your medication works. No other drug interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
If you take warfarin, check with your pharmacist before adding this product — avocado may weaken its blood-thinning effect. For most other people without that medication, avocado extract is generally well tolerated.
Pregnant and breastfeeding customers should talk with their doctor or pharmacist, since concentrated extracts haven't been well studied in those situations.
