HelloPharmacist Scorecard of HMS Hemp Extract by HMS Nutrition

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

HMS Hemp Extract contains 2 active ingredients: hemp oil and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). Hemp oil is extracted from hemp seed and is thought to contribute estrogenic and blood pressure-modulating compounds.

MSM is an organic sulfur compound, though we hold no monograph data on its specific roles. The capsules themselves are made from vegetable cellulose and cellulose — the inactive ingredients that hold and deliver the actives.

Does it work?

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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Hemp product and its label doesn't state a use — see Hemp's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence we hold for hemp oil's effectiveness is limited. For constipation, atopic dermatitis (eczema), and familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic cholesterol condition), the data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

That doesn't mean it's ineffective — it means the research isn't yet strong enough to say one way or the other.

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 in normal dietary amounts. However, concentrated hemp extracts and supplements like this one are less well studied, so caution is advised.

In larger supplement doses, side effects are uncommon, but rare cases of allergic reactions — including anaphylaxis, hives, facial swelling, and breathing problems — have been reported. There's also a rare case report of elevated liver enzymes and hepatitis in a young child given very high doses of hemp extract for seizures.

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.

Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you use estrogens (including birth control or hormone therapy) — hemp oil may theoretically interfere with their effects. Also double-check blood pressure medications, including ACE inhibitors, blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, and any medications that rely on liver enzymes CYP1A2 or CYP3A4 to be broken down.

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.

This product may be worth considering if you're interested in hemp oil's potential effects on skin or digestion, but the evidence for these uses isn't well established yet. If you take estrogen-based hormones, blood pressure medications, blood thinners, or any drug metabolized by your liver, you'll want to check your specific medications with your doctor or pharmacist first.

A rare hemp allergy is possible — if you've never had hemp before, be aware of that risk.

Hemp 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.

HMS Hemp Extract by HMS Nutrition: Common Questions

Does HMS Hemp Extract by HMS Nutrition interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, HMS Hemp Extract 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?
HMS Hemp Extract contains 2 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 with my birth control pill?
Not without checking first. Hemp oil has estrogenic effects that theoretically could interfere with how hormonal birth control works. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is safe alongside your specific birth control.
I have a tree nut allergy — is hemp seed safe for me?
Hemp seed allergy is uncommon but documented, and it's separate from tree nut allergies. Still, if you've never had hemp before and you have multiple food allergies, mention it to your doctor or pharmacist first.
Does this actually work for skin conditions like eczema?
The evidence we have is insufficient to say whether it does. There's not enough reliable research yet to know if hemp oil helps with atopic dermatitis or other skin conditions.
I take a blood pressure medication — is this okay to combine?
Hemp oil may theoretically add to the effects of blood pressure drugs, which could lower your blood pressure too much. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product if you're on any blood pressure medication.
Can I take this while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The product facts don't include safety data for pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you during this time.
What is methylsulfonylmethane (MSM)?
MSM is an organic sulfur compound, but we don't have detailed data on its specific roles or effects in this product.
