HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Corn Silk Extract Powder 1200 mg by BulkSupplements.com

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 11, 2026

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: corn silk stigma extract, dosed at 1,200 mg per serving. Corn silk is the thread-like strands from corn ears, and the extract concentrates its compounds.

The powder also contains maltodextrin, an inactive ingredient that helps with texture and flow.

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 Corn Silk's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: urinary tract and bladder health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Nocturnal enuresis, Prostatitis, Urinary tract infections (UTIs), Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis), urinary irritation, fluid retention — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Corn Silk is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Corn Silk is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Prostatitis, Urinary tract infections (UTIs), Nocturnal enuresis.

The evidence we hold does not establish that corn silk extract works for any of the conditions listed — angina, heart disease, heart failure, depression, diabetes, or fatigue all fall into insufficient evidence to rate. That doesn't mean it can't help, just that we don't have reliable data yet.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Corn Silk

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.

Corn silk extract is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but human safety data are limited and a full safety evaluation hasn't been done. The most common side effects reported are low potassium (hypokalemia) and low sodium (hyponatremia), especially with prolonged use.

During pregnancy, there isn't enough reliable safety data, so it's best avoided. While breastfeeding, safety is unknown — talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Corn silk extract is worth considering if you're interested in traditional support for heart and metabolic health, but only after you've checked it against your medications. If you take blood pressure pills, diabetes medication, diuretics, steroids, or warfarin, talk with your pharmacist first.

For pregnancy or breastfeeding, get personalized advice from your doctor.

Corn Silk Extract Powder 1200 mg by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Corn Silk Extract Powder 1200 mg by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Corn Silk Extract Powder 1200 mg has a known interaction with 290 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Corn Silk Extract Powder 1200 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.
Can I take corn silk extract if I'm pregnant?
There isn't enough reliable safety data to recommend it during pregnancy, so it's best avoided. Talk with your doctor about whether it's right for you.
Is it safe to take while breastfeeding?
Safety while breastfeeding is unknown. Unless a clinician approves it for you, it's best to avoid it. Check with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
What are the most common side effects?
Low potassium and low sodium levels are the most commonly reported side effects, especially with prolonged use. Serious side effects are rare, but a thorough safety evaluation hasn't been completed.
Does corn silk extract actually work for diabetes?
The evidence we hold rates it insufficient to establish whether it helps with diabetes. Animal research shows it may lower fasting blood sugar, but we don't have enough reliable human data yet.
Why does this product interact with so many medications?
Corn silk extract lowers blood pressure, affects blood sugar, increases urine output, and causes potassium loss — all effects that overlap with what many medications do. The interactions arise because the supplement and the drug are working in the same direction, which can amplify the effect.
