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 product contains one active ingredient: durian fruit extract (dry). Durian is a tropical fruit native to Southeast Asia.

The formula also includes glycerin and water as inactive ingredients to deliver the extract in liquid form.

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 Durian product and its label doesn't state a use — see Durian'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.

We have no effectiveness data on file for durian fruit extract in supplement form. The evidence isn't established in the data we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Durian

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.

Durian is generally well tolerated as a food in moderation, but it's high in sugar and calories, so large amounts aren't recommended. The safety data we have is limited to food amounts; information on supplement forms is lacking, so if you're considering this product talk with your provider first.

Rare allergic reactions have been reported after eating durian fruit, including hives, nasal congestion, runny nose, and throat discomfort with hoarseness. Case reports also describe abdominal discomfort, flatulence, diarrhea, and vomiting in some people.

If you notice any of these symptoms, stop taking it and let us know.

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.

This is a durian extract in liquid form with minimal documented interaction data — just one concern with alcohol. If you don't drink alcohol, it's likely fine to consider, but the evidence for its effectiveness isn't established.

Check your exact medications below, and talk with your pharmacist if you have questions about whether it's right for you.

Alcohol (Ethanol)

There is a traditional belief that ingestion of alcohol with durian can be fatal. A case report from 1941 describes an adult in India who developed acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis and died after drinking alcohol with durian, but there have been no other published reports since. A study in mice given homogenized durian fruit flesh in 10% ethanol did not demonstrate any toxicity. However, evidence from in vitro research shows that durian extract can inhibit alcohol dehydrogenase. This activity is similar to the effects of disulfiram. In theory, concomitant use might cause effects similar to disulfiram-ethanol reactions. Until more is known, avoid concomitant use of durian and alcohol.

Durian Alcohol Free by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Durian Alcohol Free by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Durian Alcohol Free has a known interaction with 1 medication. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Durian Alcohol Free 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.
Is this safe to take with alcohol?
No — durian extract has a documented Moderate interaction with alcohol (ethanol). There's a traditional belief that the combination can be dangerous, and though recent case reports are rare, a 1941 case described serious illness after consuming both together. If you drink alcohol, avoid this product or talk with your pharmacist about whether it's right for you.
What does durian do?
We don't have effectiveness data on file for durian fruit extract in supplement form, so I can't tell you what it's intended to treat or support. The evidence isn't established in our data.
Can I take this while pregnant or nursing?
We don't have enough safety data on durian extract supplements during pregnancy or breastfeeding to say either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice before starting.
Does this have any fillers or other ingredients?
It's mostly durian fruit extract with glycerin and water added to make it a liquid — those are inactive ingredients that help deliver the active extract. There are no unnecessary fillers.
What side effects might I notice?
Durian is generally well tolerated as a food, but rare allergic reactions have been reported — hives, nasal congestion, runny nose, and throat discomfort. Some people have also experienced abdominal discomfort, flatulence, diarrhea, or vomiting. If you notice any of these, stop taking it and let us know.
Should I avoid large amounts?
Yes — durian is high in sugar and calories, so large amounts aren't recommended. The safety data we have is for normal food amounts; we don't have much information on supplement forms, so talk with your provider about the right dose for you.
