HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Erigeron Cinnamon by Herb Pharm

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 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (585 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains 2 active ingredients: a proprietary extract blend and erigeron essential oil, along with cinnamon essential oil. The cinnamon essential oil is the component we have safety and interaction data for.

The product also contains certified organic cane alcohol as an inactive ingredient to preserve and extract the plant materials.

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 Ceylon Cinnamon product and its label doesn't state a use — see Ceylon Cinnamon'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 cinnamon in this product has been studied for obesity and diabetes, but the evidence suggests it's possibly ineffective for both. For allergic rhinitis (hay fever), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and common cold, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for erigeron.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Ceylon Cinnamon

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.

Cinnamon is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, though some people report bloating, indigestion, or nausea. Topically, cinnamon oil can irritate skin or cause allergic reactions, especially in people sensitive to cinnamyl alcohol.

Pregnancy safety is mixed: cinnamon is rated likely safe in pregnancy, though there's also a rating of likely unsafe — talk with your doctor or pharmacist about which applies to your situation. It's rated likely safe while breastfeeding, though supplement-strength doses haven't been well studied.

There's a rare case report of bleeding in someone who took very high amounts of cinnamon daily for months, so avoid medicinal or supplement doses without medical guidance.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Ceylon Cinnamon

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 — Ceylon Cinnamon.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 258 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.

Check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you take blood pressure-lowering drugs or diabetes medications. Cinnamon can increase the blood-pressure-lowering and blood-sugar-lowering effects of these drugs, which may require a dose adjustment.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may help some people, but the evidence for cinnamon on obesity and diabetes is weak. If you take blood pressure or diabetes medications, check your exact drugs with the search tool before starting — cinnamon can add to their effects.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should confirm the dose is appropriate with their own doctor or pharmacist.
