HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Caraway 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 caraway extract in liquid form. Caraway is a seed from the caraway plant, traditionally used as a digestive aid.

The liquid also contains two inactive ingredients — vegetable palm glycerin and Hawaiian artesian water — as the base for the extract.

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 health and gas relief.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Bloating, Indigestion.
  • 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).

In our data, caraway is rated possibly effective for dyspepsia (indigestion and related stomach discomfort). For other uses — amenorrhea (absent periods), asthma, constipation, and flatulence — the evidence isn't established well enough to rate.

If you're thinking about this for indigestion, the data supports it may help; for other conditions, we don't have solid evidence either way.

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 in food amounts is generally well tolerated. This is a concentrated supplement extract, though, so the safety profile is less studied than whole food.

During pregnancy, medicinal or oil amounts of caraway should be avoided; food amounts are likely fine, but data are limited. While breastfeeding, food amounts are probably okay, but safety of concentrated supplements hasn't been well studied — talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're nursing.

In trials, an allergic reaction was reported when caraway oil was used with peppermint oil in someone with a history of asthma — it's unclear whether caraway, peppermint, or the combination was responsible. When caraway oil was combined with peppermint oil, some people reported a burning feeling under the breastbone, belching, nausea, and vomiting; again, the cause isn't certain.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Caraway

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 — 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 this, double-check with your pharmacist if you use blood sugar medications, medicines that calm the nervous system, diuretics (water pills), lithium, or the tuberculosis antibiotics isoniazid, rifampin, or pyrazinamide. Caraway may interact with all of these.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Caraway Non-Alcohol is a single-ingredient liquid extract possibly effective for indigestion. It's a good fit if you want digestive support and don't take blood sugar medications, CNS depressants, diuretics, lithium, or tuberculosis antibiotics.

If you do take any of those, check with your pharmacist before starting. Avoid it in concentrated amounts during pregnancy.

certified organic Caraway 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

Theoretically, caraway might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium due to diuretic effects.
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.
Animal research suggests that a specific fraction of caraway seed extract (CC-1a) can increase plasma levels of isoniazid when administered concomitantly. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pyrazinamide

Theoretically, caraway might increase the effects and adverse effects of pyrazinamide.
Animal research suggests that a specific fraction of caraway seed extract (CC-1a) can increase plasma levels of pyrazinamide when administered concomitantly. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Rifampin (Rifadin)

Theoretically, caraway might increase the effects and adverse effects of rifampin.
Animal research suggests that a specific fraction of caraway seed extract (CC-1a) can increase plasma levels of rifampin when administered concomitantly. This interaction has not been reported in humans.
