HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Burdock Root Extract by Herbal Goodness

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 a single active ingredient: Burdock Root Extract. Burdock is a plant root traditionally used in herbal medicine and cuisine, and this liquid form makes it easy to dose.

There are no other inactive ingredients listed.

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 — see Burdock's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: healthy detoxification, clear skin, and well-being.
  • We looked for evidence on: Acne, Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Dry skin, skin health, detoxification — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Burdock is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Acne (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Burdock is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Dry skin.

The evidence we have for burdock root extract doesn't establish that it works for any of the uses listed — acne, aging skin, breast cancer, cold, or eczema (atopic dermatitis) all carry a rating of insufficient reliable evidence. That doesn't mean it's ineffective, only that clinical trials haven't yet proven it one way or the other.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Burdock

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.

Burdock is generally well tolerated when eaten as a food, and it has a long history of use with few reported side effects. However, human safety data are limited, so short-term use in healthy adults is the main scenario we can call reasonably safe.

Serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, are rare but documented. Contact dermatitis — a skin rash — has been reported, especially with prolonged use of burdock root oil or plasters.

One case of liver injury was reported in someone taking a multi-ingredient detox tea that included burdock, though it's unclear whether burdock itself was the culprit. During pregnancy, medicinal amounts should be avoided because of lack of safety data and the possibility of effects on the uterus.

While breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety information to recommend medicinal use — talk with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized guidance.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Burdock

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 — Burdock.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 122 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.

If you take a blood thinner or antiplatelet drug — such as warfarin, aspirin for heart disease, clopidogrel (Plavix), or similar medications — double-check with your pharmacist before using this product, as burdock may theoretically increase bleeding risk.
