HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Fibro-Ease LG by Earth Friend Herb Co.

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 Oct 8, 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 6 active ingredients.

Fibro-Ease LG contains six active ingredients: elderberry, lobelia, couch grass, white pond lily, sheep sorrel, and condurango. Elderberry is the ingredient with the most documented interaction data in our records, and lobelia is the one with the most serious safety concerns in its notes.

The inactive ingredients listed are alcohol and glycerin. These are not active ingredients, and we have no further detail on their roles in this formula.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Fibromyalgia symptom relief.
  • We looked for evidence on: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Fibromyalgia, Chronic widespread pain, Musculoskeletal pain, Central sensitization.
  • The closest evidence on file: Elderberry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) (Natural Medicines).

None of the six ingredients has an established effectiveness rating for a condition based on reliable evidence. Elderberry, sheep sorrel, white pond lily, and condurango are rated as having insufficient reliable evidence to rate for the uses listed.

Couch grass has no effectiveness ratings in our data. Lobelia's only rating is for smoking cessation, where it is rated possibly ineffective.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Elderberry Lobelia Couch Grass White Lily Sorrel Condurango

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 3 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 6 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Elderberry's safety notes say cooked, ripe-fruit products are generally well tolerated, but raw or unripe berries, leaves, bark, and seeds can be toxic. Its pregnancy entry is rated likely safe, yet its safety notes advise avoiding it during pregnancy and breastfeeding because there is not enough reliable safety information.

Lobelia can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea at doses as low as 50 mg and toxicity at 600 mg or higher, and its pregnancy rating is likely unsafe. Sheep sorrel contains oxalates, which can contribute to kidney damage with large or concentrated doses.

Its pregnancy rating is possibly safe, and its notes advise against concentrated amounts while breastfeeding. Couch grass, white pond lily, and condurango have no pregnancy rating on file, and their safety notes advise avoiding them during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to limited data.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Fibro-Ease LG with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Sheep Sorrel3 drug types · 169 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, sorrel might cause additive effects and side effects when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro, sorrel has been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation. However, this effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Fexofenadine (Allegra)

Sorrel might reduce the effectiveness of fexofenadine by reducing its absorption from the gut.
In vitro research shows that an ethanol extract of sorrel inhibits organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1A2 (OATP1A2), which transports fexofenadine from the intestine into cells. In rats, concomitant administration of sorrel extract with fexofenadine reduces oral absorption of fexofenadine and the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC).

Likelihood Likely Evidence D
Organic Anion-Transporting Polypeptide Substrates (Oatp)

Sorrel might reduce the effectiveness of OATP substrates by reducing their absorption from the gut.
In vitro research shows that sorrel inhibits OATP1A2. Theoretically it may inhibit other OATPs. The OATPs are expressed in the small intestine and liver and transport drugs into cells. Inhibition of OATP may reduce the bioavailability of oral drugs that are substrates of OATP.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sheep Sorrel full monograph & interactions

Elderberry2 drug types · 121 drugs

Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, elderberry might interfere with immunosuppressant therapy due to its immunostimulant activity.
Elderberry has immunostimulant activity, increasing the production of cytokines, including interleukin and tumor necrosis factor.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Pazopanib (Votrient)

Theoretically, elderberry might interact with pazopanib, potentially increasing the risk of adverse effects.
In one case, a 65-year-old patient taking pazopanib for 4 weeks for soft-tissue sarcoma developed severe nausea, loose stools, and elevated alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase levels and was diagnosed with grade 3 liver injury. The patient reported taking elderberry supplements for 2 years, dose unspecified, and was also taking a multivitamin and a calcium supplement. The patient's symptoms and liver enzyme levels improved upon discontinuation of pazopanib and all supplements. Pazopanib treatment was re-initiated, at a lower dose, with no further evidence of liver injury. It was unclear in this case report if the elderberry supplements were derived from the berry, the flower, or the combination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Elderberry full monograph & interactions

Lobelia1 drug type · 1 drug

Lithium

Lobelia is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, lobelia might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Lobelia's pregnancy rating is likely unsafe, and its safety notes advise avoiding it because of toxicity concerns and a lack of safety data. Please talk with your own doctor or pharmacist about your situation.
