HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Cilantro (Coriander) Leaf 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection

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

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: cilantro leaf (coriander), 450 mg per capsule. Cilantro is the leafy green part of the coriander plant, commonly used in cooking and traditional herbal practice.

The capsule itself is made from gelatin and water, which are inactive ingredients that hold the herb inside.

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 Coriander product and its label doesn't state a use — see Coriander'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 cilantro's effectiveness for any of the conditions listed—anorexia, anxiety, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, and indigestion—is rated insufficient in the data we hold. That means there isn't enough reliable research to know whether it works for these uses.

If you're considering it for a specific health concern, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what the evidence actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient 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 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.

Cilantro is generally well tolerated in normal food amounts. At higher medicinal doses, safety data is sparse, so use caution and don't rely on it without medical guidance.

A small number of people—particularly those sensitized through occupational exposure—have reported rare but serious reactions including anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction), asthma-like symptoms, and rhinitis when exposed to coriander dust or powder. Topically, it may cause contact dermatitis, itching, or a burning sensation in sensitive skin.

There is no safety data provided for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing.

  • For scale: 717 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.

If you take blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs), diabetes medications, CNS depressants (sleep aids, sedating antidepressants), or drugs that increase sun sensitivity, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product—all are Moderate-severity interactions.

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.

Cilantro leaf at this dose is most useful as a culinary herb rather than a proven medicine—the evidence for treating health conditions is not established. It's a reasonable option for someone interested in herbal tradition, but if you take blood pressure, diabetes, sleep, or sun-sensitivity medications, you'll want to check with your own doctor or pharmacist first.

Skip medicinal doses without medical supervision if you have a known spice allergy or occupational sensitivity to coriander.

Cilantro (Coriander) Leaf 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Cilantro (Coriander) Leaf 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Cilantro (Coriander) Leaf 450 mg has a known interaction with 717 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Cilantro (Coriander) Leaf 450 mg 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.
Is cilantro safe if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data we hold doesn't cover pregnancy or breastfeeding, so there isn't enough information to know either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice, especially at medicinal doses.
Can cilantro help with blood sugar or diabetes?
Animal research suggests coriander fruit may lower blood sugar, which is why cilantro can interact with diabetes medications. However, the evidence that it actually treats diabetes in people is rated insufficient—we don't have enough reliable research to say it works for that purpose.
What side effects might I notice?
Cilantro is generally well tolerated at normal food amounts. At higher medicinal doses, side effects haven't been well studied. Rare serious allergic reactions (including anaphylaxis) have been reported, mainly in people exposed to coriander dust or powder on the job. If you have a spice allergy, be cautious.
Is this product going to help with indigestion or constipation?
The evidence for cilantro treating indigestion, constipation, or diarrhea is rated insufficient—we don't have enough reliable data to know if it works. It's used in traditional cooking and herbal practice, but that's not the same as proven effectiveness.
Why is there a warning about CNS depressants?
Animal research shows cilantro has sedative effects, so it may add to the drowsiness caused by sleep aids, some antidepressants, and other brain-slowing drugs. If you take any of those, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product.
