HelloPharmacist Scorecard of High Potency Organic Cinnamon Supplement 1200 mg by Vitals
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
Full disclosure
This is a single-ingredient supplement: 1200 mg of Ceylon cinnamon per capsule. The only other component is pullulan, an inactive ingredient used as the capsule material.
You're getting cinnamon and nothing else active in the formula.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for cinnamon's effectiveness isn't established in the data we hold. The ingredient has insufficient reliable evidence to rate for amenorrhea, angina, common cold, diabetes, diarrhea, and dyslipidemia (abnormal blood fat levels)—the conditions studied so far.
That doesn't mean it doesn't work; it means the trials to date haven't been conclusive enough to say one way or the other.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Cinnamon at food amounts—the spice you'd sprinkle on toast—is generally well tolerated. However, this is a supplement dose (1200 mg), so a few cautions apply.
There's concern that high doses of cassia cinnamon over time could stress your liver because of its coumarin content. In clinical trials at doses up to 12 grams daily for three months, liver markers didn't spike significantly, but the safety data advises caution with very high or extended use.
A small number of people have reported mild side effects: one person developed a rash at 1 gram daily, and in rare cases, people with a cinnamon allergy showed signs of contact dermatitis. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, food amounts are fine, but the safety data advises avoiding high-dose supplement amounts due to limited safety information.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this, double-check any medications that stress your liver (hepatotoxic drugs) and any diabetes medications you're on. Both can have Moderate-severity interactions with cinnamon.
Your pharmacist can tell you if any of your prescriptions fall into those categories.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
If you're interested in cinnamon for general wellness and don't take liver-stressing medications or diabetes drugs, this supplement is generally well tolerated at the labeled dose. If you do take either of those drug types, check with your pharmacist before starting—dose adjustments may be needed.
The evidence for its effectiveness hasn't been firmly established yet.

High Potency Organic Cinnamon Supplement 1200 mg by Vitals Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Vitals' High Potency Organic Cinnamon Supplement contains Ceylon cinnamon (listed under the monograph cassia cinnamon), which has documented interactions with two major drug categories.
The most serious concern involves hepatotoxic drugs—medications that can stress your liver. Large doses of cassia cinnamon might add to that liver burden over time because the cinnamon contains coumarin, a compound that can harm liver function with prolonged, high-dose use.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The second documented interaction is with antidiabetes drugs (Moderate severity). Cinnamon may lower blood sugar levels, so if you're taking diabetes medication, the combined effect could drop your blood sugar too far.
Your doctor might need to adjust your diabetes medication dose if you're taking this supplement regularly.
Although we hold interaction data for cinnamon—the only active ingredient here—no interactions are documented in our data for a small number of other drug types. Still, check your exact medications with the search tool on this page before you start, especially if you take anything for your liver or your blood sugar.

Ceylon Cinnamon
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, cassia cinnamon may have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Cassia cinnamon may lower blood glucose levels, and have additive effects in patients treated with antidiabetic agents. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.
Hepatotoxic Drugs
Theoretically, large doses of cassia cinnamon might cause additive effects when used with hepatotoxic drugs.
There is some concern that ingesting large amounts of cassia cinnamon for an extended duration might cause hepatotoxicity in some people. Cassia cinnamon contains coumarin, which can cause hepatotoxicity in animal models. In humans, very high doses of coumarin from 50-7000 mg/day can result in hepatotoxicity that resolves when coumarin use is discontinued. Lower amounts might also cause liver problems in sensitive people, such as those with liver disease or those taking potentially hepatotoxic agents.
