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
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product has one active ingredient: black radish root extract, dry. Black radish has been used traditionally to support biliary and digestive function, though the evidence for these uses isn't established in the data we hold.

The liquid is suspended in alcohol, water, and glycerin, which serve as the inactive base.

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 Radish product and its label doesn't state a use — see Radish'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 black radish in treating biliary disorders or diabetes is insufficient to rate based on the data we hold. While animal research shows radish extract can lower blood glucose, human studies establishing its effectiveness for diabetes aren't included in our data.

If you're considering this for a specific health goal, talk with your doctor about what evidence exists and whether it's right for you.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Radish

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.

Radish is widely eaten as a food and is generally well tolerated in normal dietary amounts. However, concentrated supplements like this one haven't been thoroughly studied for safety.

Concentrated radish can irritate your stomach lining and cause mild indigestion in some people. A rare case of allergic reaction — throat tightness and a widespread rash — has been reported with radish.

Large amounts may also cause stomach upset. Data on safety in pregnancy and lactation is not on file.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product.

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 — Radish.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 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 before you start if you take antidiabetes drugs (insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, or any other blood sugar medication). Radish can lower blood glucose, so the combination may increase your risk of low blood sugar.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you alongside your current medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Black Radish by Hawaii Pharm is most relevant if you're interested in traditional digestive or biliary support, though the evidence for these uses isn't established in our data. The main caution is if you take diabetes medication — radish can lower blood sugar, which could increase the risk of low blood sugar when combined with those drugs.

Before starting, check your medications with the tool on this page and talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, radish might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that radish extract, juice, and sprouts can reduce glucose levels. Animal research also shows that radish root juice 300 mg/kg reduces fasting and postprandial blood glucose in a rat model of diabetes, with effects similar to glibenclamide.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?

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.

Can I take this if I'm on diabetes medication?

Most people tolerate radish fine in normal food amounts, but concentrated supplements can irritate your stomach and cause mild indigestion. A rare allergic reaction with throat tightness and a widespread rash has been reported. Large amounts may also cause stomach upset.

We don't have safety data for radish supplements in pregnancy or lactation. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — they can help you weigh the risks and benefits for your situation.
