HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Caraway 800 by New You Vitamins

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

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.

Caraway 800 contains one active ingredient: caraway seed extract, derived from the seeds of the caraway plant. The product also contains gelatin and microcrystalline cellulose as inactive ingredients (a capsule shell and filler).

Caraway has a long history in traditional medicine for digestive comfort. The extract contains active compounds including carvone, which animal studies suggest may have mild sedative properties and effects on blood sugar and fluid balance.

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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Digestive and bloating support, weight management.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Obesity, Indigestion, Gas — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Caraway is rated "Possibly Effective" for Dyspepsia (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Caraway is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Flatulence, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Obesity.

The evidence in our data supports caraway as possibly effective for dyspepsia—that's indigestion or upper belly discomfort. For amenorrhea (absent menstruation), asthma, constipation, and flatulence, the evidence we hold is insufficient to establish whether it works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Caraway

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.

Caraway is generally well tolerated in the amounts found in food. At concentrated supplement doses, safety data are more limited.

The safety notes advise against medicinal or oil doses during pregnancy; food amounts are probably fine, but the data are sparse. While breastfeeding, food amounts are likely safe, but the safety of concentrated supplements is not well studied.

In combination with peppermint oil, caraway oil has caused allergic reactions in a person with asthma history, as well as heartburn-like symptoms, belching, nausea, and vomiting—though it's unclear whether caraway, peppermint, or the combination was responsible.

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 — Caraway.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 413 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.

Before you take Caraway 800, double-check with your pharmacist if you're on CNS depressants (sedatives, sleep aids, pain relievers), diabetes medications, water pills (diuretics), lithium, or TB drugs like isoniazid, rifampin, or pyrazinamide. These have documented moderate or minor interactions with caraway seed extract.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Caraway 800 may help with indigestion. It's safe in food amounts, but talk to your pharmacist if you take CNS depressants, diabetes drugs, water pills, lithium, or tuberculosis medications—interactions are possible.

Avoid medicinal doses in pregnancy, and breastfeeding mothers should check first.

Caraway seed extract7 drug types · 413 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, caraway might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that caraway can reduce blood glucose levels. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Medication dose adjustments may be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, caraway might increase the effects and adverse effects of CNS depressants.
Animal research suggests that (S)-(+)-carvone, a major constituent of caraway seed extract, has sedative effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, caraway might increase the risk of hypokalemia when used with diuretics that deplete potassium.
Animal research suggests that a single dose of caraway fruit extract can promote diuresis and increase the urinary excretion of sodium and potassium. However, sub-chronic use of caraway fruit extract does not seem to significantly increase potassium excretion, although urine output continues to be increased for up to 6 days.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Animal research suggests that caraway fruit extract has diuretic properties.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Isoniazid

Theoretically, caraway might increase the effects and adverse effects of isoniazid.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pyrazinamide

Theoretically, caraway might increase the effects and adverse effects of pyrazinamide.
