HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Basil 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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 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 1 active ingredient.

This product contains one active ingredient: certified organic basil extract. Basil extract is the concentrated form of the basil plant, prepared without alcohol.

The formula also includes vegetable palm glycerin and Hawaiian artesian water as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Basil product and its label doesn't state a use — see Basil's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for basil extract isn't established yet. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for acne, headaches, common cold, constipation, diarrhea, or flatulence.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work—just that the studies we have aren't strong enough to say either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Basil

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 1 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.

Basil is generally well tolerated when eaten as food, but concentrated extracts like this one are less studied. The safety notes caution against medicinal doses and essential oils because their safety profile isn't established.

One case of allergic contact dermatitis was reported in someone with occupational exposure to basil, though it's uncommon. Pregnancy and lactation data is mixed: one rating says likely safe, but another says possibly unsafe.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Basil

Meds to double-check

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Basil.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 289 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.

Check your medications before using this product if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs) or blood pressure medications (antihypertensives). Both interactions are Moderate severity and could affect how these drugs work or your safety.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This basil extract may be worth considering if you're looking for a natural approach, but it's not proven for common uses. If you take blood thinners or blood pressure medications, you need to check with your pharmacist first—the interactions are real and could matter.

Basil Non-Alcohol by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Basil Non-Alcohol by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Basil Non-Alcohol has a known interaction with 289 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Basil Non-Alcohol contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is basil extract safe to use if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data on file is mixed—one rating says likely safe, but another says possibly unsafe. There isn't enough clarity to recommend for or against it on your own. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your individual situation.
Can basil extract actually help with colds, headaches, or digestion issues?
The evidence isn't established yet. We don't have strong enough studies to say whether basil works for those uses. That doesn't rule it out—just means more research is needed.
Is this product safe because it's made from an herb I cook with?
Basil the food is safe, but this is a concentrated extract—much stronger than what you'd use in the kitchen. Concentrated extracts are less studied for safety, so the rules are different. Stick to food amounts if you want to stay on the safe side.
What's in this besides the basil extract?
The inactive ingredients are vegetable palm glycerin and Hawaiian artesian water. These are fillers and preservatives, not active ingredients.
