HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Flaxseed with Hemp & Garlic by Puritan's Pride
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
Partial disclosure
This softgel contains 7 active ingredients: soybean oil, hemp seed oil, flaxseed oil, oleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and garlic bulb oil concentrate. The product is built around fatty acids — primarily plant-based oils and their component parts — which your body uses for energy and cell function.
Garlic contributes its own bioactive compounds, while the blend delivers omega-rich fats from flax and hemp. The softgel itself is made with gelatin and glycerin as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Evidence for what this combination does is limited in our data. Soybean oil has possibly effective evidence for high cholesterol; oleic acid has the same rating for cholesterol and coronary heart disease.
Garlic bulb oil is rated possibly effective for high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, and liver disease. Hemp seed oil and flaxseed oil lack reliable evidence for the conditions tracked in our data — the evidence for both is rated insufficient to rate.
Because this is a blend, we cannot tell you what the product as a whole does; talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it fits your health goals.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Soybean oil is generally well tolerated in normal dietary amounts and is likely safe in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, though concentrated supplement doses in pregnancy have not been well studied. People with allergies to the legume family — including peanuts and soybeans — should avoid it; there are rare case reports of anaphylaxis from soybean oil in those with severe allergies.
Hemp seed foods are generally well tolerated, but concentrated extracts and supplements are less studied; rare cases of anaphylaxis, heart rhythm problems, and liver enzyme elevation have been reported with hemp products. Garlic supplements may cause stomach upset, body odor, flatulence, and nausea; rarely, they can increase bleeding risk and cause allergic reactions.
Garlic is likely safe as a food during pregnancy but possibly unsafe in concentrated supplement amounts — talk with your doctor before taking this product if you are pregnant.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take antidiabetes drugs (garlic and oleic acid may increase their effect and lower your blood sugar), blood thinners or warfarin (hemp and garlic both increase bleeding risk), antihypertensive drugs for blood pressure (both hemp and garlic may lower it further), estrogen-containing hormone therapy (hemp may interfere), ACE inhibitors, HIV protease inhibitors, tacrolimus (an immunosuppressant), or any drug metabolized by CYP3A4 or CYP2E1 enzymes — garlic and hemp may affect how your body processes these.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product combines plant oils and garlic in a formula where evidence of effectiveness is either limited or lacking. If you take any medications for blood pressure, blood thinning, diabetes, hormone therapy, or HIV, or if you have a legume allergy, check your exact drug list with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Pregnant women should discuss the garlic supplement dose with their provider.

Flaxseed with Hemp & Garlic by Puritan's Pride Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Flaxseed with Hemp & Garlic by Puritan's Pride has documented interactions through its hemp seed oil, oleic acid, and garlic bulb oil content.
The most serious interaction is with antidiabetes drugs — garlic may increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Hemp seed oil can interact with estrogen-containing hormone therapy (a moderate concern), antihypertensive drugs used for blood pressure, blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs), ACE inhibitors, and several enzyme systems that affect how your body processes certain medications. Garlic bulb oil interacts with a larger range of medications: antihypertensive drugs, blood thinners and warfarin specifically, antidiabetes drugs, HIV protease inhibitors, the immunosuppressant tacrolimus, and drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 and CYP2E1 enzymes.
Oleic acid may also increase the effects of antidiabetes drugs.
We could not check three other ingredients — alpha-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and other fatty acids — because interaction data is not on file for them.

For each ingredient in Flaxseed with Hemp & Garlic 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.
Garlic Bulb Oil Concentrate Blend
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Garlic may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Raw garlic and a variety of garlic extracts have antiplatelet activity and can increase prothrombin time.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, taking garlic with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research suggests that garlic and garlic extract lower blood glucose levels in healthy and diabetic individuals.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, taking garlic with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
In human research, both garlic and garlic extracts have blood pressure-lowering effects.
Atazanavir (Reyataz)
Theoretically, garlic might decrease levels and effects of atazanavir.
In a case report, a patient consuming six stir-fried garlic cloves three times weekly developed suboptimal atazanavir levels and increases in HIV viral load. While the exact cause of this interaction is unclear, there is speculation that garlic might decrease the intestinal absorption of atazanavir or increase its metabolism by inducing cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). Until more is known, advise patients not to consume large amounts of garlic while taking atazanavir.
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates
Garlic might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
Clinical research suggests garlic oil can inhibit the activity of CYP2E1 by 39%. Use garlic oil cautiously in patients taking drugs metabolized by these enzymes.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, garlic products containing allicin might induce intestinal CYP3A4 and inhibit hepatic CYP3A4. This may increase or decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Some human research suggests that garlic may induce INTESTINAL CYP3A4, reducing levels of drugs metabolized by this enzyme. This is primarily based on a study showing that taking a specific allicin-containing garlic product (GarliPure Maximum Allicin Formula, Natrol Inc.) twice daily for 3 days reduces saquinavir levels by approximately 50%. It is speculated that the allicin constituent induced CYP3A4 in the gut mucosa. Another study shows that giving docetaxel intravenously, bypassing the CYP3A4 enzymes in the gut mucosa, along with the same specific garlic product for 12 consecutive days, does not affect docetaxel levels. Conversely, there is concern that garlic may inhibit HEPATIC CYP3A4. In a single case report, increased tacrolimus levels and liver injury occurred in a liver transplant patient after taking a specific garlic supplement (Garlicin Cardio, Nature's Way) at up to three times the manufacturer recommended dose for 7 days. Several other studies have evaluated the impact of other garlic formulations on CYP3A4 substrates and have found no effect. Most of the products in these studies provided little or no allicin.
Isoniazid
Theoretically, garlic might decrease levels of isoniazid.
Animal research suggests that an aqueous extract of garlic reduces isoniazid levels by about 65%. Garlic reduced the maximum concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC), but not the half-life, of isoniazid. This suggests that garlic extract might inhibit isoniazid absorption across the intestinal mucosa; however, the exact mechanism of this potential interaction is not known.
Protease Inhibitors (Pis)
Theoretically, garlic products containing allicin might decrease levels of PIs.
Protease inhibitors are metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) isoenzymes. There is concern that garlic products containing allicin might induce intestinal CYP3A4, reducing plasma levels of protease inhibitors. This is primarily based on a study showing that taking a specific garlic product (GarliPure Maximum Allicin Formula, Natrol Inc.) twice daily for 3 days reduces levels of saquinavir, a PI, by approximately 50%. It is speculated that the allicin constituent induce CYP3A4 in the gut mucosa. Several studies have evaluated the impact of other garlic formulations on CYP3A4 substrates and have found no effect. Most of the products in these studies provided little or no allicin.
Saquinavir (Fortovase, Invirase)
Theoretically, garlic containing allicin might decrease levels of saquinavir.
Saquinavir is a substrate of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) isoenzymes. There is concern that garlic products containing allicin might induce intestinal CYP3A4 and cause subtherapeutic levels of saquinavir. This is primarily based on a pharmacokinetic study showing that taking a specific garlic product (GarliPure Maximum Allicin Formula, Natrol Inc.) twice daily for 3 days reduces saquinavir levels by approximately 50%. It is speculated that the allicin constituent induces CYP3A4 in the gut mucosa. Several pharmacokinetic studies have evaluated the impact of other garlic formulations on CYP3A4 substrates and have found no effect. Most of the products in these studies provided little or no allicin. Until more is known about this potential interaction, use garlic containing allicin cautiously in patients taking saquinavir.
Sofosbuvir (Sovaldi)
Theoretically, taking garlic with sofosbuvir might decrease its effectiveness.
Animal research in rats shows that giving aged garlic extract 120 mg/kg orally daily for 14 days decreases the area under the concentration time curve (AUC) after a single sofosbuvir dose of 40 mg/kg by 36%, increases the clearance by 63%, and decreases the plasma concentrations at 1 and 8 hours by 35% and 58%, respectively. This interaction is hypothesized to be due to induction of intestinal P-glycoprotein expression by garlic.
Tacrolimus (Prograf)
Theoretically, garlic might increase levels of tacrolimus.
In one case report, a liver transplant patient taking tacrolimus experienced increased tacrolimus levels and liver injury after taking a specific garlic supplement (Garlicin Cardio, Nature's Way) at up to three times the manufacturer recommended dose for 7 days. It is speculated that garlic inhibited hepatic cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), which increased plasma levels of tacrolimus.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, garlic might increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Raw garlic and a variety of garlic extracts have antiplatelet activity and can increase prothrombin time. In addition, there is a report of two patients who experienced an increase in a previously stabilized international normalized ratio (INR) with concomitant garlic and warfarin use. However, this report has been subsequently debated due to limited clinical information. Other clinical studies have not identified an effect of garlic on INR, warfarin pharmacokinetics, or bleeding risk. More evidence is needed to determine the safety of using garlic with warfarin.
Hemp seed Oil
Estrogens
Theoretically, hemp might interfere with hormone therapy due to its estrogenic effects.
In an ovariectomized animal model, a diet containing hemp seed 1%, 2%, or 10% resulted in normalized plasma levels of 17-beta-estradiol. The mechanism of action for this effect is unclear.
Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)
Theoretically, consuming hemp seed protein isolate with ACE inhibitors might have additive effects and increase the risk of hypotension.
Hemp seed protein hydrolysate has shown ACE inhibitor-like effects in a hypertensive animal model. However, hempseed oil consumption does not seem to reduce blood pressure in humans. Until more is known, monitor blood pressure and potassium levels.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, hemp seed might increase the risk of bleeding when used concomitantly with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
In animal research, hemp seed at 5% of the diet inhibits platelet aggregation in vitro. However, in human research, taking hemp seed oil 2 grams daily for 12 weeks does not inhibit the aggregation of platelets in vitro.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, hemp seed protein may have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
In a hypertensive animal model, hemp seed protein hydrolysate reduced systolic blood pressure by a mechanism possibly involving the inhibition of renin and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activities. However, there was no effect of hemp seed protein on blood pressure in normotensive animals. Furthermore, hempseed oil consumption does not seem to reduce blood pressure in humans.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, hemp might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that hemp induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, hemp might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that hemp induces CYP3A4 enzymes.
Flaxseed Oil
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, using flaxseed oil in combination with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs might have additive effects and increase the risk of bleeding.
Small clinical studies show that consuming flaxseed oil might decrease platelet aggregation and increase bleeding time.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, combining flaxseed oil with other antihypertensive drugs might have additive effects and increase the risk of hypotension.
Some clinical evidence suggests that long-term consumption of flaxseed oil can modestly lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, while other clinical research shows no effect.
Ezetimibe (Zetia)
Concomitant use of flaxseed oil and ezetimibe reduces the absorption of alpha-linolenic acid from flaxseed oil.
In one clinical study, concomitant consumption of ezetimibe 10 mg daily with flaxseed oil 2 grams providing 1 gram of alpha-linolenic acid daily blocked the absorption of alpha-linolenic acid, resulting in an overall reduction in alpha-linolenic plasma levels from baseline.
