HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ban Lan Gen Non-Alcohol 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.

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 1 active ingredient.

This product contains one active ingredient: wild harvested Ban Lan Gen extract, which comes from Isatis, a traditional plant used in herbal medicine. The liquid also includes vegetable palm glycerin and Hawaiian water as inactive ingredients to deliver the extract.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Isatis's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Isatis for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Psoriasis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for Ban Lan Gen is mixed and often thin. It's rated possibly effective for psoriasis, which is the strongest claim we have.

For respiratory tract infections, prostate cancer, ulcerative colitis, hepatitis, and aging skin, the reliable evidence is insufficient — we don't have enough solid data to rate whether it works for those uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Isatis

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Ban Lan Gen extract has been used short-term in traditional medicine, but human safety data are limited, so we don't know the full picture of how well it's tolerated long-term. The safety data advise against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, since there isn't enough reliable information to know it's safe in those situations.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredient we could check. Still, run your medications through the checker on this page and confirm with your pharmacist or doctor before you start.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. No medication interactions are currently documented, and some safety-information gaps remain.

Ban Lan Gen might be worth considering if you're interested in traditional herbal support, particularly for psoriasis where there's some evidence. Because human safety data are limited and pregnancy/breastfeeding safety isn't established, check with your own doctor or pharmacist before starting — especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other medications.
