HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Cilantro Compound by Wise Woman Herbals

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 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (0.80 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This liquid contains 2 active ingredients: Yellow Dock and Cilantro (coriander). Yellow Dock is a plant root traditionally used for its laxative properties.

Cilantro is an herb — the fruit of the coriander plant — with a long history in cooking and folk medicine. The product also contains alcohol, spring water, and glycerine as inactive ingredients.

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

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

The evidence we hold does not establish whether either ingredient is effective for any particular health purpose. Yellow Dock has no effectiveness ratings on file.

Cilantro is rated insufficient evidence for constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, anxiety, loss of appetite, blood sugar control, and other uses — meaning the data doesn't yet support claims that it works for these.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Yellow Dock Coriander

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Yellow Dock is generally well tolerated when properly prepared and used short-term, but it acts as a laxative and contains oxalates. The safety data advises against it during pregnancy and while nursing.

Raw leaves or rhizomes can cause serious problems like low blood calcium, kidney stones, and vomiting, and extremely large amounts have been linked to respiratory problems — so proper preparation and reasonable doses matter. Cilantro is generally well tolerated in food amounts.

Topical contact can cause skin irritation in sensitive people, and in rare cases people allergic to coriander spice have experienced anaphylaxis, though this is uncommon.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Yellow Dock Coriander

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Coriander, Yellow Dock.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 724 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 start, double-check this product if you take diuretics or digoxin — Yellow Dock carries Major-level concerns with both. Also check if you're on warfarin, any blood pressure medication, diabetes drugs, sun-sensitizing drugs, or sedatives; Cilantro and Yellow Dock both interact with these at Moderate severity.

Cilantro Compound by Wise Woman Herbals: Common Questions

Does Cilantro Compound by Wise Woman Herbals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Cilantro Compound has a known interaction with 724 medications, including 76 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Cilantro Compound contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 while I'm pregnant or nursing?
No. The safety data for Yellow Dock advises against it during pregnancy and while nursing due to laxative effects that could pass into breast milk. Talk with your doctor about any herbal options that might be safer for you at this time.
What does Yellow Dock actually do?
Yellow Dock is a plant root that acts as a laxative. It's traditionally used to support bowel regularity, but we don't have evidence on file establishing how well it works. It should be used short-term and carefully because it contains oxalates.
Is cilantro in here the same herb I cook with?
It's the dried fruit of the coriander plant — the culinary spice. In food amounts it's generally well tolerated, but this product is a medicinal liquid concentrate, so it's a stronger dose than you'd sprinkle on dinner.
What are the side effects?
Yellow Dock, when properly prepared, seems well tolerated, though it's a laxative so digestive effects are expected. Raw Yellow Dock leaves or roots can cause serious problems like low blood calcium and kidney stones, so only use properly prepared forms. Cilantro is generally tolerated, though some people get skin irritation from contact, and very rarely, people allergic to coriander spice have had severe allergic reactions.
How long can I take this?
Use Yellow Dock short-term and with care — it's not meant for long-term daily use because it's a laxative and contains oxalates. Talk with your pharmacist about how long is right for your situation.
