HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chickweed by Red Moon Herbs

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

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: Chickweed Herb Extract made from fresh plant material. The other ingredients are water and alcohol, which serve as the liquid base and preservative.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Chickweed product and its label doesn't state a use — see Chickweed's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for chickweed isn't established in the data we hold. Studies so far are too limited or unreliable to say whether it works for diabetes, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), or weight management (obesity).

If any of those is why you're considering it, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the current evidence supports a trial.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chickweed

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.

Chickweed is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but high-quality safety information is limited. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding — there isn't enough information to know it's safe in either situation.

When applied to skin, chickweed extract can occasionally cause contact dermatitis (an allergic skin reaction) in some people.

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check. That doesn't mean none exist — it means our data holds none.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Chickweed by Red Moon Herbs carries no documented medication interactions, which is a good start. But the evidence for its effectiveness isn't solid yet, and safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding point toward avoiding it.

If you're curious about it for a specific health goal, check with your pharmacist first — they can help you weigh the limited evidence and talk through whether it fits your situation.

Chickweed by Red Moon Herbs: Common Questions

Does Chickweed by Red Moon Herbs interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Chickweed. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Chickweed contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against chickweed during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know it's safe. Talk with your doctor or midwife before using it if you're pregnant or nursing.
What is chickweed actually used for?
Chickweed has been studied for diabetes, high cholesterol, and weight management, but the evidence we hold isn't strong enough to say it works for any of those. The research so far is too limited or unreliable.
Does chickweed have any side effects?
It's generally well tolerated for short-term use, though safety data are limited. When applied to skin, it can occasionally cause contact dermatitis — an allergic reaction. Oral use side effects aren't well documented in the data we hold.
What are the inactive ingredients?
The liquid base is made of water and alcohol, which acts as a preservative. Those are the only other ingredients in the product.
