HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Herbal Laxative by Organic India

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

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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Organic India's Herbal Laxative contains three active ingredients: Psyllium, Bael Tree Leaf Extract, and Garden Cress. The product also contains pullulan, an inactive ingredient used as a capsule material.

Psyllium is a bulk-forming fiber often used to support digestive regularity, while Bael Tree Leaf Extract and Garden Cress are traditional herbal extracts included for their purported effects on digestion and bowel function.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: gentle non-habit-forming laxative promotes healthy bowel movements.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hemorrhoids, Constipation, Bowel regularity, Digestive comfort.
  • The closest evidence on file: Garden Cress is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hemorrhoids (Natural Medicines).

The evidence on file does not establish effectiveness for the conditions listed. Bael Tree Leaf Extract shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate for asthma and shigellosis (a type of food-borne infection).

Garden Cress similarly has insufficient reliable evidence to rate for asthma, diabetes, hemorrhoids, high blood pressure, and lactation support. This means the research either isn't robust enough or isn't available in our data to confirm how well these ingredients work for those purposes.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bael Garden Cress

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 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

The safety picture is mixed. Bael Tree Leaf Extract: the ripe fruit is eaten as food, but concentrated supplements lack strong safety data.

Large amounts may cause gastrointestinal upset and constipation. Garden Cress is generally safe in food amounts, but concentrated seed supplements have limited safety data; large amounts might cause similar digestive effects.

Psyllium safety data is not on file here. Neither Bael nor Garden Cress should be used medicinally during pregnancy or breastfeeding — traditional sources and lack of reliable safety data suggest avoiding them in these situations.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Bael Garden Cress

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Bael, Garden Cress.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,045 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.

Before taking this product, check with your pharmacist if you use antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure meds), anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs (blood thinners), antidiabetes drugs, diuretics (water pills), lithium, theophylline, cholinergic drugs, or drugs metabolized by CYP1A2 or CYP3A4 liver enzymes — all carry Moderate or Minor interaction risks with the checked ingredients here.

Bael Tree Leaf Extract4 drug types · 819 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Evidence from animal research suggests that extracts of bael seed and leaf can reduce blood glucose levels. Theoretically, bael might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.
Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Bael leaf extract shows acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity in vitro. Theoretically, bael might have additive effects with cholinergic drugs and increase the risk of cholinergic side effects.
Cholinergic drugs include bethanechol (Urecholine), donepezil (Aricept), echothiophate (Phospholine Iodide), edrophonium (Enlon, Reversol, Tensilon), neostigmine (Prostigmin), physostigmine (Antilirium), pyridostigmine (Mestinon, Regonol), succinylcholine (Anectine, Quelicin), and tacrine (Cognex).

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Bael extract and its constituent marmesinin inhibited cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) activity in vitro. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans. Theoretically, bael might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Some drugs metabolized by CYP1A2 include amitriptyline (Elavil), haloperidol (Haldol), ondansetron (Zofran), propranolol (Inderal), theophylline (Theo-Dur, others), verapamil (Calan, Isoptin, others), and others. Use bael cautiously or avoid in patients taking these drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Bael and its constituents marmelosin and marmesinin inhibited cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) activity in vitro. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans. Theoretically, bael might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Some drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 include lovastatin (Mevacor), ketoconazole (Nizoral), itraconazole (Sporanox), fexofenadine (Allegra), triazolam (Halcion), and numerous others. Use bael cautiously or avoid in patients taking these drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Bael Tree Leaf Extract full monograph & interactions

Garden Cress14 drug types · 398 drugs

Amlodipine (Norvasc)

Theoretically, taking garden cress seeds with amlodipine might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research indicates that giving garden cress seeds with amlodipine increases maximum concentrations of amlodipine by 83%. Blood pressure was also reduced when compared with amlodipine alone. However, the area under the curve was not significantly affected.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, garden cress seed may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that garden cress seed extract can increase bleeding time when used in combination with the antiplatelet agent clopidogrel. This has not been shown in humans and it is unclear if garden cress seed itself has anticoagulant or antiplatelet effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking garden cress with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Evidence from animal research suggests that an extract of garden cress can reduce blood glucose levels. This has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking garden cress with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Garden cress has shown hypotensive effects in animal research and increases levels and effects of the antihypertensive medications amlodipine and losartan. This has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, garden cress might increase the absorption rate of carbamazepine and result in blood concentrations outside of the therapeutic window.
Animal research shows that taking garden cress seed daily for 8 days prior to a single dose of carbamazepine does not significantly affect maximum concentrations or area under the curve of carbamazepine. However, the absorption rate is increased, with a 50% reduction (2 hours) in time to peak concentration, resulting in increased plasma levels within 3 hours of dosing and then decreased plasma levels from 5-12 hours after dosing. This has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Clopidogrel (Plavix)

Theoretically, taking garden cress seed with clopidogrel might prolong bleeding.
Animal research shows that taking garden cress seed daily for 2 weeks prior to a single dose of clopidogrel does not affect the pharmacokinetics of clopidogrel. However, bleeding time was increased by 7%. This has not been shown in humans and the mechanism of action is unclear.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, taking garden cress with diuretic drugs might increase the risk of hypokalemia.
Evidence from animal research suggests that garden cress has diuretic effects and can increase the urinary excretion of potassium. This has not been shown in humans. Initiation of potassium supplementation or an increase in potassium supplement dose may be necessary for some patients.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Gliclazide (Diamicron, Others)

Theoretically, taking garden cress seed with gliclazide might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Evidence from animal research suggests that garden cress seed increases the area under the curve of a single dose of gliclazide by approximately 70%. However, there was no statistically significant effect on maximum concentrations of gliclazide or on the effects of gliclazide on blood glucose. This has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, garden cress might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium due to diuretic effects.
Animal research suggests that garden cress has diuretic properties.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Losartan (Cozaar)

Theoretically, garden cress seed might have additive hypotensive effects when used with losartan.
Animal research suggests that giving garden cress seed extract for two weeks before a single dose of losartan increases levels of plasma losartan by at least 2.4-fold and potentiates its blood pressure-lowering effects. Maximum concentrations of losartan were not significantly affected. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Metoprolol (Toprol)

Theoretically, garden cress seed might have additive hypotensive effects when used with metoprolol.
Animal research shows that garden cress seed for 2 weeks decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 9% and 32%, respectively, when administered alone, and by 15% and 33%, respectively, when given with metoprolol 10 mg/kg. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenytoin (Dilantin)

Theoretically, garden cress might increase levels and side effects of phenytoin.
Animal research shows that garden cress seed for 1 week increases maximum concentrations and the area under the curve of a single dose of phenytoin by 16% and 49%, respectively. This seems to be related to decreased clearance. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sildenafil (Viagra)

Theoretically, concurrent use of sildenafil and L-arginine might reduce levels and therapeutic effects of sildenafil.
Animal research shows that garden cress seed for 1 week reduces maximum concentrations and the area under the curve of a single dose of sildenafil by 40% and 51%, respectively. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Theophylline

Theoretically, concurrent use of sildenafil and theophylline might increase levels and adverse effects of theophylline.
Animal research shows that garden cress can increase theophylline concentrations by approximately 37%. It is hypothesized that this increase is due to possible inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Herbal Laxative by Organic India: Common Questions

Does Herbal Laxative by Organic India interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Herbal Laxative has a known interaction with 1,044 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Herbal Laxative 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 if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Safety data for the Bael and Garden Cress in this product is not established for pregnancy or breastfeeding, and traditional sources advise against medicinal use during these times. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
What's psyllium, and why is it in here?
Psyllium is a bulk-forming fiber — it absorbs water and adds bulk to stool to support bowel regularity. We don't have interaction data for it on file, but it's a common ingredient in laxative products.
What are the main side effects I should watch for?
Large amounts of Bael or Garden Cress may cause gastrointestinal upset and constipation. The product facts we have don't list other reported adverse effects, but any new digestive symptoms warrant a conversation with your pharmacist.
Does this product actually work for constipation or IBS?
We don't have effectiveness data for constipation or IBS in our files for these ingredients. The evidence we hold rates them as having insufficient reliable evidence for the conditions listed (asthma, diabetes, hemorrhoids, etc.), so effectiveness for bowel support is not established here.
Is this safe if I take blood pressure medication?
Garden Cress in this product has a documented Moderate interaction with blood pressure medications — it may increase their effect and lower your blood pressure too much. Check with your pharmacist before use.
What if I take a diabetes medication?
Both Bael and Garden Cress can lower blood sugar, so together with a diabetes drug they might raise the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Blood glucose monitoring and possible dose adjustments are needed — talk to your pharmacist or doctor first.
