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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains two active ingredients: hesperidin and diosmin. Both are flavonoids — plant compounds with anti-inflammatory properties — that work in your circulation.

Hesperidin is found naturally in citrus, while diosmin (which your body can also make from hesperidin) is used for vein and circulation support. The capsule also contains cellulose as an inactive filler.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Venous circulation and vascular health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), Hemorrhoids, Varicose veins, spider veins, leg swelling, circulation.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Diosmin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Diosmin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Hemorrhoids.
  • Also on file: Diosmin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Varicose veins.

For hesperidin, the evidence we hold shows it's possibly ineffective for weight loss and cholesterol, and we don't have enough reliable data on whether it helps nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. For diosmin, the data suggests it's possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency (poor circulation in the legs), venous leg ulcers, and hemorrhoids.

For back pain and diabetic nerve pain, we don't have sufficient evidence to rate it either way.

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Hesperidin is generally well tolerated in food amounts and short-term supplement use, though long-term data is limited. One case of allergic skin rash was reported with a topical form in an older person with no prior allergies.

Diosmin is generally well tolerated short-term, though long-term safety is less studied. The most common side effects are abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, and stomach upset.

Rare serious effects include cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeat) and hemolytic anemia (a type of low red blood cell count). For pregnancy and breastfeeding, hesperidin carries conflicting safety ratings in our data — some sources rate it likely safe and others possibly safe.

Diosmin similarly shows likely safe and possibly safe ratings. The safety notes advise against use in pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient information.

If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.

Moderate identified

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

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Diosmin, Hesperidin.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 1,142 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 pharmacist if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (aspirin, warfarin, others) — both ingredients theoretically increase bleeding risk. Also check if you take sedating medications (CNS depressants), blood pressure drugs, heart medications (especially verapamil or diltiazem), pain relievers or muscle relaxants (especially diclofenac or chlorzoxazone), or anti-seizure medications (especially carbamazepine) — diosmin and hesperidin may alter how your body processes these drugs.

Diosmin9 drug types · 885 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, diosmin may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
A case of spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage has been reported for a 77-year-old female after 6 weeks of warfarin therapy, despite an international normalized ratio (INR) of only 1.8. The patient had also been taking aspirin and diosmin for several years. Experts speculate that chronic intake of diosmin predisposed the patient to spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage by inducing chronic microcirculatory hypertension and inhibiting platelet aggregation. The presence of aspirin was also thought to play a role in this event.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, diosmin might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine 200 mg increases blood levels of carbamazepine by approximately 58% and decreases carbamazepine clearance by 42%. It also decreases the formation of carbamazepine's active metabolite. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of carbamazepine by inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of chlorzoxazone.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of chlorzoxazone 250 mg increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone by 53% and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance by 40%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP2C9 substrates.
Diclofenac is metabolized by CYP2C9 enzymes. Clinical and laboratory research shows that diosmin inhibits the metabolism of diclofenac. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of diclofenac 100 mg increases blood levels of diclofenac and decreases diclofenac clearance.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP2E1 substrates.
Chlorzoxazone is metabolized by CYP2E1 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of chlorzoxazone (Paraflex 250) 250 mg increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone by 34% and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance by 40%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting CYP2E1.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
Laboratory research is conflicting with respect to the effects of diosmin on CYP3A4. Some research suggests that diosmin does not affect CYP3A4 activity. However, other research suggests that diosmin alters the metabolism of carbamazepine, a CYP3A4 substrate. Laboratory and animal research show that oral administration of diosmin for 7 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine increases plasma concentrations of carbamazepine, decreases the clearance of carbamazepine, and decreases the formation of carbamazepine's active metabolite. Additionally, pharmacokinetic research in healthy male subjects shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine 200 mg increases blood levels of carbamazepine by approximately 58% and decreases carbamazepine clearance by 42%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of carbamazepine by inhibiting CYP3A4. Diosmetin, a metabolite of diosmin, may also inhibit CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Diclofenac (Voltaren, Others)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of diclofenac.
Clinical and laboratory research shows that diosmin inhibits the metabolism of diclofenac. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of diclofenac 100 mg increases blood levels of diclofenac and decreases diclofenac clearance. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of diclofenac by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Fexofenadine (Allegra)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of fexofenadine.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of fexofenadine 120 mg increases blood levels of fexofenadine by approximately 49% and decreases the apparent oral clearance of fexofenadine by 41%. The time taken to reach maximum plasma concentration, the half-life, and the apparent renal clearance of fexofenadine are not affected. For this reason, it is speculated that diosmin alters the pharmacokinetics of fexofenadine via inhibition of P-glycoprotein in the intestine, but not in the kidney or liver.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp).
Preliminary laboratory research suggests that diosmin inhibits P-gp. Additionally, pharmacokinetic research in healthy male subjects shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of fexofenadine 120 mg increases blood levels of fexofenadine, a P-gp substrate, by approximately 49% and decreases the apparent oral clearance of fexofenadine by 41%. The time taken to reach maximum plasma concentration, the half-life, and the apparent renal clearance of fexofenadine are not affected. For this reason, it is speculated that diosmin inhibits P-gp in the intestine, but not in the kidney or liver.

Diosmin full monograph & interactions

Hesperidin7 drug types · 703 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, hesperidin may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that hesperetin, a bioflavonoid aglycone derivative of hesperidin, may have antiplatelet activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking hesperidin with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some clinical and animal research shows that hesperidin can decrease blood pressure. However, other clinical research shows that hesperidin does not affect blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Celiprolol (Celicard)

Theoretically, hesperidin may decrease the levels and clinical effects of celiprolol.
Animal research shows that concomitant use of hesperidin may reduce the plasma area under the curve of celiprolol by up to 75%. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, concomitant use with CNS depressants may cause additive sedative effects.
Animal studies show that hesperidin has sedative effects, due to opioid receptor activity and can increase sedation when used with diazepam. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diltiazem (Cardizem, Others)

Theoretically, hesperidin may increase the levels and clinical effects of diltiazem.
Animal research suggests that hesperidin may enhance the bioavailability of diltiazem, increasing the plasma area under the curve of diltiazem by up to 65.3%. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, hesperidin might inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux and potentially increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein.
In vitro research shows that hesperidin can inhibit P-glycoprotein efflux. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Verapamil (Calan, Others)

Theoretically, hesperidin might increase the levels and clinical effects of verapamil.
Animal research suggests that hesperidin may enhance the bioavailability of verapamil, increasing the plasma area under the curve of verapamil by 96.8%. This effect has not been reported in humans

Diosmin & Hesperidin by Herbs SRA: Common Questions

Does Diosmin & Hesperidin by Herbs SRA interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Diosmin & Hesperidin has a known interaction with 1,141 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Diosmin & Hesperidin contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
What is diosmin used for?
Diosmin is used for chronic venous insufficiency — poor circulation in the legs — where the evidence suggests it's possibly effective. It's also used for venous leg ulcers and hemorrhoids based on similar evidence. For back pain or diabetic nerve pain, we don't have enough reliable data to know if it helps.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data for both ingredients is insufficient in pregnancy and breastfeeding, and the product labeling advises against it. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product — they can weigh the specific benefits and risks for your situation.
What are the most common side effects?
Diosmin can cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, and stomach upset. Hesperidin is generally well tolerated. Serious side effects like cardiac arrhythmias or changes in red blood cells are rare.
Is this safe for long-term use?
Both ingredients are generally well tolerated in the short term, but long-term safety data is limited. The product notes advise caution and, for diosmin, using it only under medical supervision if you're taking it long-term.
How much does this product increase my bleeding risk?
Both ingredients theoretically increase bleeding risk with blood thinners based on animal research, but this effect hasn't been confirmed in humans. A single case report of bleeding was reported in a patient on warfarin who was also taking diosmin, aspirin, and other medications — so it's possible but not proven to be the cause. Check with your pharmacist if you take any blood thinners.
Will this interact with my heart medication?
Hesperidin may increase the levels of verapamil and diltiazem (calcium channel blockers) based on animal studies, which could increase their effects and side effects. It theoretically affects blood pressure too. Check your exact medication with your pharmacist before starting.
