What is this page for?

Around that, we add a pharmacist’s high-level view of the product as a whole — what’s inside, the evidence for its stated use, how transparent the label is, and what safety data exists — so you can see the full picture in one place. It’s educational information from our licensed clinical databases and the clinical staff at HelloPharmacist — not medical advice — and we don’t sell or endorse products. Our editorial policy

HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Caralluma by Herbal Terra
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 liquid contains one active ingredient: caralluma root extract, dry. Caralluma is a succulent plant used in traditional medicine, and this extract concentrates what's believed to be its active compounds.
The other ingredients are alcohol, water, and glycerin — these help dissolve and preserve the extract.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence for caralluma is limited. For obesity, the data suggests it's possibly ineffective.
For generalized anxiety disorder and Prader-Willi syndrome, we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works. If weight management or anxiety relief is your goal, talk with us about what the research actually supports.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Caralluma is generally well tolerated in short-term studies, but we don't know much about long-term safety yet. In the first two weeks of use, some people in trials reported stomach upset — abdominal bloating, constipation, gas, or gastritis — though these symptoms often went away on their own.
One person with high blood pressure saw a temporary spike while taking it, but the effect didn't return. Because safety data during pregnancy and breastfeeding is either absent or insufficient, the safety information advises against it during both.
If you're pregnant or nursing, talk with your doctor or us before using this product.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for caralluma. That said, we have no interaction monograph on file, so it's wise to double-check your specific medications with the search tool on this page before you start.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Caralluma might be worth trying if you're curious about herbal appetite support, but the evidence for weight loss is weak. Long-term safety isn't proven, and pregnancy and breastfeeding safety data is insufficient.
If stomach upset happens early on, it often settles down — but check with us first, especially if you're on medications.
