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: Figwort Herb Extract, Dry, supplied as a liquid. The extract is preserved in a base of alcohol, water, and glycerin, which are inactive ingredients.

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 Figwort product and its label doesn't state a use — see Figwort'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 hold no effectiveness data for figwort in our records. That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the evidence isn't established in the information we have on file.

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Safety data for figwort is limited. The product label advises using it with caution and for short-term use only.

Figwort is not recommended during pregnancy — there isn't enough safety information to consider it safe. The same goes for breastfeeding: reliable safety data don't exist, so it's best avoided.

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

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 — Figwort.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 76 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.

If you take diuretics (water pills) or lithium, you need to clear figwort with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it. Both interactions are Moderate severity and may require dose adjustments or potassium monitoring.

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 may be worth considering if you're interested in herbal support, but it does interact with diuretics and lithium — two important medication classes. Because safety data are sparse, short-term use is safer than long-term.

Check your exact medications before starting, and discuss it with your own doctor or pharmacist, especially if you take water pills or mood stabilizers.

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Figwort by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Figwort by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Figwort has a known interaction with 76 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Figwort 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.
Can I take figwort if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — there isn't enough safety information. Figwort is best avoided during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're considering it and are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing.
How long can I safely use this product?
The safety data are limited, so short-term use is recommended. Avoid taking it long-term without your doctor's guidance.
What is figwort used for?
Figwort is an herbal extract, but we hold no effectiveness information in our records that tells us what it's intended to do or whether it works.
Does this product have any fillers or additives?
Yes — the liquid base contains alcohol, water, and glycerin. These are inactive ingredients used to preserve and deliver the extract.
I take a water pill. Can I still use figwort?
Possibly, but not without checking first. Figwort may increase the potassium-depleting effect of diuretics, raising the risk of low potassium. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they may want to monitor you or adjust your potassium supplementation.
I take lithium. Is figwort safe for me?
You need to talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting. Figwort may raise lithium levels in your blood, which could be unsafe. Your dose might need to be lowered.
