HelloPharmacist Scorecard of CBD Gel Caps by Dixie Botanicals
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 product has 3 active ingredients: MCT Oil, Cannabidiol, and Hemp Oil. MCT Oil is a medium-chain fat used as a carrier, Cannabidiol (CBD) is the main active compound from hemp, and Hemp Oil provides additional cannabinoids and plant compounds.
The capsules also contain inactive ingredients — beef gelatin, vegetable glycerin, and purified water — which serve as the capsule shell and filler.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The effectiveness data we hold for hemp oil covers constipation, eczema (atopic dermatitis), and high cholesterol levels — but for all of these, the evidence is insufficient to say whether it works. That doesn't mean it won't help; it means the science isn't established enough in the sources we track to make a clear claim.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Hemp seed and oil products are generally well tolerated in food amounts, though concentrated extracts and supplements like this one are less studied. Rare serious side effects reported include allergic reactions (hives, facial swelling, breathing trouble, anaphylaxis) and in one case, elevated liver enzymes in a young child given very high doses.
Allergy to hemp seed is uncommon but possible. Pregnancy and lactation safety data is not on file for this product — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check if you're on estrogen therapy or birth control (moderate interaction), blood thinners like warfarin, blood pressure medications, ACE inhibitors, or drugs broken down by your liver's CYP1A2 or CYP3A4 pathways (all minor). Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about these specific medications before you start.
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.
Dixie Botanicals CBD Gel Caps may be worth considering if you're interested in CBD, but several medications are affected — most notably hormone therapy and blood pressure drugs. If you take any prescription medications, especially for blood clotting, heart, or hormone management, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Hemp extracts are less studied than whole hemp foods, so caution is warranted with this concentrated form.

CBD Gel Caps by Dixie Botanicals Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Dixie Botanicals CBD Gel Caps contains hemp oil, which carries documented interactions with several medication types.
The most serious concern is with estrogens (hormone therapy or birth control pills) — hemp may interfere with how your body processes these hormones, though the exact mechanism isn't fully understood.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Hemp oil also has minor interactions documented with blood thinners (anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs), blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs and ACE inhibitors), and certain drug-processing enzymes in your liver. With blood thinners, there's a theoretical risk of increased bleeding.
With blood pressure drugs, there's a possibility of additive effects — meaning your blood pressure could drop further than intended. Hemp may also speed up how your liver breaks down certain medications, potentially making them less effective.
We could not check two of the three ingredients — MCT Oil and Cannabidiol — because we hold no interaction data for them. Altogether, these interactions span 939 individual medications.
Before you start this product, run your exact prescriptions through the checker on this page or talk with your doctor or pharmacist, especially if you take any hormone therapy, blood pressure medication, blood thinners, or seizure medications.

For each ingredient in CBD Gel Caps with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Hemp Oil
Estrogens
Theoretically, hemp might interfere with hormone therapy due to its estrogenic effects.
In an ovariectomized animal model, a diet containing hemp seed 1%, 2%, or 10% resulted in normalized plasma levels of 17-beta-estradiol. The mechanism of action for this effect is unclear.
Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)
Theoretically, consuming hemp seed protein isolate with ACE inhibitors might have additive effects and increase the risk of hypotension.
Hemp seed protein hydrolysate has shown ACE inhibitor-like effects in a hypertensive animal model. However, hempseed oil consumption does not seem to reduce blood pressure in humans. Until more is known, monitor blood pressure and potassium levels.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, hemp seed might increase the risk of bleeding when used concomitantly with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
In animal research, hemp seed at 5% of the diet inhibits platelet aggregation in vitro. However, in human research, taking hemp seed oil 2 grams daily for 12 weeks does not inhibit the aggregation of platelets in vitro.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, hemp seed protein may have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
In a hypertensive animal model, hemp seed protein hydrolysate reduced systolic blood pressure by a mechanism possibly involving the inhibition of renin and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activities. However, there was no effect of hemp seed protein on blood pressure in normotensive animals. Furthermore, hempseed oil consumption does not seem to reduce blood pressure in humans.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, hemp might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that hemp induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, hemp might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that hemp induces CYP3A4 enzymes.
