HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chlorophyll 100 mg by Dr. Clark Store
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 contains 2 active ingredients: sodium copper chlorophyllin (a lab-made form of chlorophyll, the pigment that makes plants green) at 100 mg, and alfalfa powder (a dried plant commonly used as animal feed and in supplements). The capsule itself is made from gelatin, and rice flour is used as a filler.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for what this product can do is thin. For the chlorophyllin, our data shows it's likely ineffective for reducing urinary odor, and there's not enough reliable evidence to rate it for acne, cancer, constipation, or intestinal gas.
For alfalfa, we hold insufficient evidence on diabetes, indigestion, high cholesterol, and hot flashes. Neither ingredient has established effectiveness for its traditional uses in the data we hold.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Chlorophyllin is generally well tolerated in the short term, though good long-term safety data is lacking. Oral chlorophyll has been tied to photosensitization and a rare condition called pseudoporphyria — in case reports, people developed fragile blisters on their hands after drinking chlorophyll supplements.
Alfalfa is considered food-safe in small amounts, but as a supplement it carries real risks. Common side effects from alfalfa include abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, intestinal gas, and bulkier stools.
Rarely, chronic use has been linked to a lupus-like syndrome. Dermatitis (skin irritation) has also been reported.
For pregnancy, alfalfa is rated possibly unsafe due to its estrogen-like activity, and there isn't enough reliable data on chlorophyllin to know either way — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice. Both ingredients should be avoided or discussed with your healthcare provider while breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on warfarin (Coumadin) or other blood thinners — the alfalfa's vitamin K could reduce how well they work (Major interaction). Also double-check if you take birth control pills, estrogen therapy, blood sugar medications, immunosuppressants, or photosensitizing drugs (those that make your skin more sun-sensitive).
The product interacts with all of these at Moderate severity.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is best for someone who's researched chlorophyll and alfalfa and wants to try them — neither ingredient has strong proof it works for common claims. If you take warfarin, birth control, diabetes medications, hormone therapy, or immunosuppressants, you need to check your exact medications with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Same goes if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or spend a lot of time in the sun. Discuss it with your own healthcare provider before you begin.

Chlorophyll 100 mg by Dr. Clark Store Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Chlorophyll 100 mg by Dr.
Clark Store interacts with several medication types, with the most serious being blood thinners like warfarin (Coumadin). The alfalfa powder in this product contains vitamin K, which can reduce how well warfarin works to prevent clots — a Major interaction that requires close attention if you take it.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Both ingredients can increase sensitivity to sunlight (a Moderate interaction with photosensitizing drugs), so you'll want to be cautious about sun exposure if you're on medications that already make your skin more sun-sensitive. The alfalfa also potentially interferes with birth control pills, hormone therapy, blood sugar medications, and immunosuppressant drugs — all Moderate interactions.
With diabetes medications, there's a theoretical risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
Altogether, these interactions span 583 individual medications. Use the medication checker below with your exact prescriptions before you start.

For each ingredient in Chlorophyll 100 mg with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Alfalfa powder
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, alfalfa might reduce the anticoagulant activity of warfarin.
Alfalfa contains a large amount of vitamin K. This could theoretically interfere with the activity of warfarin.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, alfalfa might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that alfalfa decreases blood sugar in diabetic mice. Also, in one case report, a diabetic patient experienced hypoglycemia after consuming alfalfa extract. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.
Contraceptive Drugs
Theoretically, alfalfa might interfere with the activity of contraceptive drugs.
Alfalfa contains coumestrol, a phytoestrogen, and isoflavonoids, which have estrogenic effects.
Estrogens
Theoretically, alfalfa might interfere with hormone therapy.
Alfalfa contains coumestrol, a phytoestrogen, and isoflavonoids, which have estrogenic effects.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, alfalfa might decrease the efficacy of immunosuppressive therapy.
In vitro research and human case reports suggest that alfalfa may have immunostimulant effects.
Photosensitizing Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use of alfalfa with photosensitizing drugs might have additive effects.
Animal research suggests that excessive doses of alfalfa may increase photosensitivity, possibly due to its chlorophyll content. It is unclear if this effect would be clinically relevant in humans.
Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin
Photosensitizing Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use of chlorophyllin with photosensitizing drugs may have additive effects.
Chlorophyllin is a semi-synthetic derivative of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll has been reported to cause photosensitization. Orally, chlorophyll has also been associated with the development of pseudoporphyria in multiple case reports.
