HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Coriander by Hawaii Pharm

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
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 liquid extract contains one active ingredient: coriander seed extract. It's made from coriander fruit, a common culinary spice that's been used in traditional medicine.

The extract is suspended in alcohol, water, and glycerin as inactive ingredients to preserve it and make it drinkable.

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 we hold doesn't establish that coriander works for any of the conditions it's marketed for — anorexia, anxiety, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, and dyspepsia all carry an insufficient evidence rating. That doesn't mean it doesn't help; it means the research so far isn't strong enough to say either way.

If you're considering it for a specific concern, talk with us about what the current data shows.

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.

Coriander is generally well tolerated when used in normal food amounts. In concentrated medicinal doses — like this liquid extract — safety data is sparse, so use caution.

Topically, it can cause contact dermatitis, itching, or a burning sensation in sensitive skin. Rarely, people with coriander sensitivity have had serious allergic reactions including anaphylaxis, hives, facial swelling, and breathing problems — particularly those with occupational exposure to coriander dust.

There isn't enough data on file to advise whether this product is safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding; talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Coriander.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • 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.

Before you start, double-check any antidiabetes drugs (blood sugar medications), CNS depressants (sedating medications), antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medications), and photosensitizing drugs (sun-sensitizing medications) with the search tool on this page. All four categories carry Moderate-severity risk.

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.

Coriander extract is generally well tolerated in food amounts, but this concentrated liquid form interacts with several medication types, especially diabetes and blood pressure drugs. If you take any prescription medication — particularly for blood sugar, blood pressure, sedation, or sun sensitivity — check it against our tool below before starting.

Coriander by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Coriander by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Coriander 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?
Coriander 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.
Will this coriander extract actually help with digestion or blood sugar?
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that it works for those purposes — the data is too thin to say either way. If you're considering it for a specific health goal, we'd recommend talking with your pharmacist about what stronger evidence might exist outside our database.
Is this safe to take every day?
Coriander in normal food amounts is generally safe for most people. But concentrated medicinal doses like this liquid extract don't have strong safety data behind them, so use caution and talk with your pharmacist about how often and how much makes sense for you.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough data on file to know whether it's safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they can weigh the risks and benefits for your situation.
What are the side effects?
Coriander seems to be well tolerated by mouth. Rarely, people with a coriander allergy have had serious reactions like hives, facial swelling, or trouble breathing. On skin, it can cause itching, burning, or a rash in sensitive people.
What's in this liquid besides the coriander extract?
It's made with alcohol, water, and glycerin — these are inactive ingredients that preserve the extract and make it drinkable.
