HelloPharmacist Scorecard of DIM by Absonutrix

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 liquid contains one active ingredient: diindolylmethane (DIM), a compound extracted from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage. The liquid also includes water, ethanol (alcohol), potassium sorbate as a preservative, stevia for sweetness, and peppermint oil for flavor.

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 Diindolylmethane product and its label doesn't state a use — see Diindolylmethane'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 what DIM does isn't established in our data. Studies have looked at diindolylmethane for benign prostate enlargement, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical dysplasia, and breast pain, but the data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for any of these.

That doesn't mean it won't help — it means we don't yet have strong proof either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Diindolylmethane

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.

Diindolylmethane is generally well tolerated in short-term use, though long-term safety hasn't been well studied. Common side effects include diarrhea, gas, headache, nausea, rash, and vomiting.

A rare serious reaction called DRESS (drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) has been reported. One case of stroke was reported in someone taking DIM along with other supplements, but it's unclear whether DIM played a role — that person had other stroke risk factors.

Because of possible effects on hormones and limited safety data, the safety notes advise caution in pregnancy and against use while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Diindolylmethane

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 — Diindolylmethane.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 269 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 DIM, check your medications with the tool on this page if you take estrogens (birth control, hormone replacement therapy) — it may change how these work. Also double-check if you're on a diuretic (water pill) for high blood pressure or fluid buildup, or any medications your liver breaks down via the CYP1A2 pathway.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

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.

DIM might appeal to you if you're looking for a supplement made from whole-food sources, but the evidence for what it does isn't clear yet. It's important to check it against any hormonal medications, water pills, or other prescriptions you take before you start.

If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have concerns about hormone-sensitive conditions, talk with your pharmacist first.

Diindolymethane3 drug types · 269 drugs

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might increase the risk of hyponatremia if used with sodium-depleting diuretics.
Large doses of diindolylmethane (600 mg daily) have been associated with two cases of asymptomatic hyponatremia in clinical research.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Estrogens

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might increase or decrease the effects of estrogens.
Diindolylmethane might have mild estrogenic or antiestrogenic effects. Theoretically, large amounts of diindolylmethane might interfere with hormone replacement therapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might lower serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that diindolylmethane can induce CYP1A2. Theoretically, it might increase metabolism of CYP1A2 substrates and lower serum concentrations. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

DIM by Absonutrix: Common Questions

Does DIM by Absonutrix interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, DIM has a known interaction with 269 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
DIM 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 this if I'm on birth control?
You should check with your pharmacist first. Diindolylmethane may increase or decrease how estrogens work, so it could affect how well your birth control works or cause side effects. Use the medication checker on this page or talk to your pharmacist about your specific pill.
What are the most common side effects?
The most common are diarrhea, gas, headache, nausea, rash, and vomiting. Most people tolerate it well in the short term, but if any of these bother you, stop and let your pharmacist know.
Is it safe to take while pregnant?
The data shows it's likely safe in pregnancy, but because there's limited information and possible effects on hormones, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you before starting.
Can I breastfeed while taking this?
There isn't enough safety information to know, so it's best avoided while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about alternatives or whether it's okay in your situation.
Does it actually work for prostate health or cancer prevention?
We don't have reliable evidence yet that it works for benign prostate enlargement, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, or the other conditions it's marketed for. The research isn't conclusive either way.
