HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Hemp Seed Oil by Country Farms

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

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: hemp seed oil. Hemp seed is the whole seed from the Cannabis sativa plant—it's distinct from cannabis flower or extracts and contains little to no THC (the compound that gets you high).

The oil pressed from hemp seeds carries fatty acids and proteins that make up its composition.

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 — see Hemp's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: heart healthy and supports hair skin nails.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hypertension, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), cardiovascular health, skin barrier function.
  • The closest evidence on file: Hemp is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Atopic dermatitis (eczema) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Hemp is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hypertension.

The evidence we hold for hemp seed oil doesn't establish it as effective for the conditions studied. For constipation, atopic dermatitis (eczema), and familial hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol), the data rates as insufficient reliable evidence.

That means research is too limited or mixed right now to say whether it works for these purposes.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Hemp

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.

Hemp seed foods and oils are generally well tolerated at normal food amounts. However, the safety data on concentrated supplements and extracts is much thinner, so caution is advised if you're using larger doses.

In rare cases, allergic reactions—including anaphylaxis, facial swelling, and breathing trouble—have been reported with hemp seed exposure. There's also a rare case report of liver enzyme elevation and hepatitis in a young child given high-dose hemp extract for seizures, though this involved much larger amounts and a different preparation than this oil.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Hemp

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 — Hemp.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 939 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 with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you take estrogen therapy or hormone replacement—hemp may interfere with how well it works. Also flag any blood pressure medications, blood thinners, or ACE inhibitors, where hemp could add to their effects.

If you take any prescription drug metabolized by the liver, mention this supplement when you check, since hemp may reduce how well some medications work.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Hemp seed oil is generally well tolerated as a food supplement at normal doses, but it interacts with hormone therapy, blood pressure medications, blood thinners, and several drug-metabolizing pathways. If you take any prescription medications—especially birth control, estrogen replacement, blood pressure drugs, or blood thinners—talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product.

Rare allergic reactions are possible, so stop and seek help if you notice hives, swelling, or breathing changes.

Hemp Seed Oil6 drug types · 938 drugs

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Hemp Seed Oil by Country Farms: Common Questions

Does Hemp Seed Oil by Country Farms interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Hemp Seed Oil has a known interaction with 938 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Hemp Seed Oil 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 use this if I'm on birth control or hormone replacement therapy?
Not without checking first. Hemp seed oil may interfere with estrogen-based hormone therapy because it can affect estradiol levels in your body. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting—they can tell you if it's okay for your specific situation or if you need to adjust anything.
What are the side effects of hemp seed oil?
Most people tolerate it well, especially at food amounts. Rare allergic reactions have been reported—hives, facial swelling, shortness of breath, and anaphylaxis—though these are uncommon. There's also one old case report of liver problems in a very young child given extremely high doses of hemp extract, but that's not typical of hemp seed oil at normal doses.
Does hemp seed oil have THC in it?
No. Hemp seed oil is pressed from the seeds, not the flower, and seeds contain little to no THC. It won't get you high or show up on a drug test.
Is it safe to take during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for hemp seed oil in pregnancy or lactation. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding—they can advise you based on your individual health.
Will this help with my high cholesterol or eczema?
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that it works for either. Research is too limited to say whether hemp seed oil helps with cholesterol or atopic dermatitis. If you're considering it for those reasons, discuss your options with your doctor first.
Can I take this with blood pressure medication or blood thinners?
Potentially, but not without checking. Hemp seed protein may add to blood pressure medication effects, and it might theoretically increase bleeding risk with blood thinners. Your doctor or pharmacist needs to know you're taking this if you're on any of those medications so they can monitor you.
