HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ginseng Sublime by Ron Teeguarden's Dragon Herbs

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 11, 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 3 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2.25 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

Ginseng Sublime is a liquid blend with 3 active ingredients: a proprietary extract blend (whose individual components aren't itemized on the label) plus American ginseng, Changbai Mountain Chinese Red Ginseng, and Changbai Mountain White Ginseng. The liquid also contains water and grain alcohol as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: energy, stress support, and wellness.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Cancer-related fatigue, Cognitive function, Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Stress management, Immune support — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: American Ginseng is rated "Possibly Effective" for Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: American Ginseng is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Athletic performance, Cancer-related fatigue, Cognitive function.

American ginseng in this product is rated possibly effective for upper respiratory tract infections — the common cold and similar viral infections of the nose, throat, and windpipe. For anemia of chronic disease and breast cancer, the evidence isn't solid enough to rate it.

We have no effectiveness data on file for the other two ginseng types in the blend.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient American Ginseng

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.

American ginseng is generally well tolerated in healthy adults over the short term, though quality and dosage vary between products and long-term safety hasn't been well studied. Headache has been reported with use.

The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding — not enough is known to say it's safe, so it's best avoided while expecting or nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient American Ginseng

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — American Ginseng.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 217 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 your medications before taking this product if you're on warfarin or other blood thinners (major interaction), or if you take blood-sugar drugs, immunosuppressants, or MAOI antidepressants (moderate interactions). Use the search tool on this page to verify your specific prescriptions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're dealing with a cold and want to try ginseng, this product might have some benefit. If you take warfarin, blood-sugar drugs, immunosuppressants, or an MAOI antidepressant, you need to talk with us or your doctor before taking it — the interactions are real and could affect how your medications work.

Pregnant women and anyone breastfeeding should skip it.

Yes. Based on its ingredients, Ginseng Sublime has a known interaction with 217 medications, including 2 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Ginseng Sublime contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 this while I'm pregnant?
No — the safety data advises against it. There's not enough research to know it's safe during pregnancy, so it's best avoided.
Is it safe to breastfeed while taking Ginseng Sublime?
No — there's too little safety information about ginseng while breastfeeding, so avoidance is the safer choice.
What is this product supposed to help with?
American ginseng is rated possibly effective for upper respiratory tract infections — colds and similar viral infections. The evidence for anemia of chronic disease and breast cancer isn't solid enough to rate.
Does American ginseng have any side effects?
Headache has been reported with use. The product is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, but quality and dosing vary, and long-term safety isn't well studied.
What's actually in the proprietary extract blend?
The label doesn't itemize the individual ingredients in that blend — it's listed as a proprietary mix, so you'd need to contact the manufacturer for details.
Can you check if this works with my medications?
We can check American ginseng against most medications using the search tool on this page, but we don't have interaction data on file for the other two ginseng extracts in the blend — so run your prescriptions through to be sure.
