HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Hydrangea by Herb Pharm
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 product contains one active ingredient: Hydrangea Root Extract, a liquid preparation made from the root of the hydrangea plant. The extract is delivered in a base of cane alcohol and distilled water.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
We don't hold any effectiveness ratings for hydrangea in our data, so I can't tell you what it's been studied for or how well the evidence supports its use.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Human safety information on hydrangea is limited, and large or long-term doses may cause unwanted effects. The extract may cause stomach upset (gastroenteritis), dizziness, or a feeling of chest tightness when taken by mouth.
The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough reliable information to know it's safe.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take lithium, check with your pharmacist before starting this product — the extract may raise your lithium level and your dose might need to be adjusted.
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.
Hydrangea Root Extract is a simple, single-ingredient liquid — but it's one you'll want to check if you take lithium. If you don't take lithium and aren't pregnant or nursing, talk with your pharmacist about whether this product makes sense for what you're trying to do.

Hydrangea by Herb Pharm Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Herb Pharm's Hydrangea is a single-ingredient liquid extract that does interact with one medication type.
Hydrangea Root Extract may affect lithium (a mood stabilizer). The extract is thought to have diuretic properties — it may increase how much fluid your body holds onto — which could reduce how much lithium your kidneys clear out.
If lithium levels climb, your dose might need to be lowered.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
If you take lithium, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product. They'll want to monitor your lithium level and may adjust your dose.
