HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Figwort by Hawaii 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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: certified organic figwort extract in liquid form, suspended in vegetable glycerin, pharmaceutical-grade alcohol, and purified water. Figwort is a plant traditionally used in herbal practice, though its mechanisms and benefits in modern medicine are not well established in our data.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
We hold no effectiveness ratings for figwort in our data, so we cannot tell you whether this extract works for any particular purpose. If you're considering it for a specific health goal, that's worth discussing with your doctor or pharmacist.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Safety data on figwort are limited, so the manufacturer advises using it short-term and with caution. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding — there isn't enough reliable information to know it's safe in either situation.
Because adverse effects and side-effect frequencies aren't documented in our data, talk with your pharmacist about what to watch for if you do decide to take it.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take lithium (even a small increase in its blood level can matter) or any diuretic or water pill, especially potassium-depleting ones like furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide. These are the medication types with documented interactions in our data.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
Figwort is a single-herb liquid extract with documented interactions involving diuretics and lithium — two important medication classes. If you take either type of drug, or any other prescription medication, check the details with your own doctor or pharmacist before starting.
The short-term, cautious-use label and pregnancy/breastfeeding cautions are signals that safety evidence is thin here.

Figwort by Hawaii Pharm Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Hawaii Pharm's Figwort is a single-ingredient liquid extract that does interact with medications.
Through its figwort content, it may affect how your body handles diuretic drugs (water pills) and lithium, a medication for bipolar disorder. The most serious concern is with lithium: figwort's diuretic properties might reduce how much lithium your kidneys clear, raising its level in your blood — and lithium has a narrow safe range, so even small increases matter.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
With diuretic drugs (like furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, and others), figwort may worsen potassium loss. Your kidneys already shed potassium when you take a diuretic; figwort may tip that balance further, raising your risk of low potassium (hypokalemia), which can cause muscle weakness, irregular heartbeat, and fatigue.
Your doctor might need to add potassium supplementation or adjust your dose.
Additionally, if you take lithium or any potassium-depleting diuretic, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting figwort. Altogether, these interactions span 76 individual medications.

Diuretic Drugs
Theoretically, overuse of figwort might compound diuretic-induced potassium loss. There is some concern that people taking figwort along with potassium depleting diuretics might have an increased risk for hypokalemia. Initiation of potassium supplementation or an increase in potassium supplement dose may be necessary for some patients. Some diuretics that can deplete potassium include chlorothiazide (Diuril), chlorthalidone (Thalitone), furosemide (Lasix), hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, Hydrodiuril, Microzide), and others.
Lithium
Figwort is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, figwort might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.
