HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Coriander Powder by Banyan Botanicals

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 23, 2026

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 is pure coriander powder — a single active ingredient derived from the coriander plant. There are no other active ingredients or fillers listed.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Coriander's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: digestive function and GI tract comfort.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Diarrhea, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Constipation, gastric motility — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Coriander is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Constipation (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Coriander is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea, Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

The evidence we hold on coriander for most conditions is insufficient to rate. We don't have established effectiveness data for anorexia, anxiety, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, or indigestion.

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 in normal food amounts. However, concentrated medicinal doses and coriander essential oil lack solid safety data, so use caution with those forms without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first.

Topically, it can cause contact dermatitis, itching, or a burning sensation in sensitive people. Orally, a rare but serious risk is anaphylaxis in people with coriander sensitivity — particularly those with occupational exposure to the spice.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Coriander

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

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 taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood sugar medications (risk of low blood sugar), sedatives or sleep aids, blood pressure medications, or drugs that increase sun sensitivity.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you use coriander as a culinary spice in normal amounts, this powder is generally well tolerated. If you're taking it as a concentrated supplement — especially if you take medications for blood sugar, sleep, blood pressure, or sun sensitivity — talk with your doctor or pharmacist first to confirm it's right for you.

Formula

(Coriandrum sativum) Organic ayurvedic herbs

Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is one of the best herbs for supporting digestion without aggravating pitta. It enkindles the digestive fire while simultaneously cooling and soothing the GI tract. It removes excess heat in the body making it useful in cooling pitta-related imbalances associated with menopause. It also supports proper function of the kidneys and healthy urination. The seeds combine well with cumin and fennel to make an excellent digestive tea.
