HelloPharmacist Scorecard of KB by New Sun

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (920 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

New Sun KB contains 7 ingredients: five are herbal actives — uva ursi, buchu, marshmallow, hydrangea, and juniper — plus cornsilk and a proprietary blend. Each plays a traditional role in supporting urinary tract health and comfort.

The product also contains one inactive ingredient, pullulan, which is a binding and capsule material.

Does it work?

Leans against
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
Leans against

The strongest graded evidence we hold for the stated purpose leans against a benefit.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Urinary tract and kidney health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Urinary tract infections (UTIs), Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis), urinary discomfort, bladder support, diuretic function.
  • The closest evidence on file: Uva Ursi is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Urinary tract infections (UTIs) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Juniper is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis), Urinary tract infections (UTIs).

The evidence for most conditions is limited. Uva ursi is rated possibly ineffective for urinary tract infections, and we have insufficient evidence to rate it for bronchitis.

The other ingredients — cornsilk, buchu, marshmallow, hydrangea, juniper, and meadowsweet — don't have effectiveness ratings in our data, meaning the scientific evidence hasn't been established for the conditions they're traditionally used for. If you're considering this product for a specific health concern, talk with your pharmacist about what the research actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Uva Ursi Buchu Marshmallow Hydrangea Juniper Meadowsweet

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 4 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 6 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Uva ursi is generally well tolerated in low doses for short-term use but can be toxic at high doses or with prolonged use. It may cause diarrhea, nausea, stomach upset, or vomiting at typical doses.

Buchu, marshmallow, hydrangea, and juniper all have limited human safety data; juniper is generally tolerated in low doses short-term but shouldn't be used long-term because it may irritate the kidneys. Hydrangea may cause dizziness, gastroenteritis, or chest tightness.

None of these ingredients should be used during pregnancy — uva ursi and juniper are rated unsafe, while buchu, marshmallow, hydrangea, and meadowsweet lack sufficient safety data. For breastfeeding, avoid uva ursi, buchu, hydrangea, juniper, and meadowsweet due to insufficient data; buchu is rated possibly safe but only in limited amounts.

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?
  • 6 of the 6 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Meadowsweet, Buchu, Uva Ursi, Hydrangea, Juniper, among others.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 2,180 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 you take New Sun KB, double-check with your pharmacist or doctor if you're on lithium (a Moderate interaction with multiple ingredients here), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin (Moderate), diabetes medications (Moderate from juniper), drugs processed by your liver enzymes CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 (Moderate from uva ursi), or any drug that's toxic to the liver (Moderate from buchu). Minor interactions exist with diuretics and oral medications generally.

Marshmallow3 drug types · 2,040 drugs

Lithium

Theoretically, due to potential diuretic effects, marshmallow might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Marshmallow is thought to have diuretic properties. To avoid lithium toxicity, the dose of lithium might need to be decreased when used with marshmallow.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, marshmallow flower might have antiplatelet effects.
Animal research suggests that marshmallow flower extract has antiplatelet effects. However, the root and leaf of marshmallow, not the flower, are the plant parts most commonly found in dietary supplements. Theoretically, use of marshmallow flower with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs can have additive effects, and might increase the risk for bleeding in some patients.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Oral Drugs

Theoretically, mucilage in marshmallow might impair absorption of oral drugs.
Marshmallow contains mucilage which can affect oral drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take marshmallow 30-60 minutes after oral medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Marshmallow full monograph & interactions

Uva Ursi6 drug types · 803 drugs

Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit cytochrome CYP2C19. This effect has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit CYP3A4. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Glucuronidated Drugs

Theoretically, uva ursi may increase levels of drugs metabolized by glucuronidation.
In vitro, uva ursi extract appears to strongly inhibit UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 (UGT1A1). However, uva ursi extract does not appear to inhibit UGT1A1 in animal models. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, uva ursi may increase lithium levels, necessitating a decrease in dose.
Uva ursi may have diuretic properties. Diuretics may increase lithium reabsorption with sodium in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Theoretically, uva ursi might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Urinary Acidifying Agents

Effects of uva ursi in the urinary tract may be reduced by urinary acidifying agents.
Uva ursi seems to work best in alkaline urine. Theoretically, taking uva ursi with medications known to acidify the urine may decrease any effects of uva ursi on the urinary tract.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may alter the levels of drugs transported by P-glycoprotein.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit the multi-drug transporter protein, P-glycoprotein. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Uva Ursi full monograph & interactions

Buchu3 drug types · 481 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Buchu may have antiplatelet effects. Theoretically, buchu may enhance the effects of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs and increase the risk of bleeding in some patients. Some anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs include aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), dalteparin (Fragmin), enoxaparin (Lovenox), heparin, ticlopidine (Ticlid), warfarin (Coumadin), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Buchu contains pulegone, a known hepatotoxin. There is some concern that buchu may adversely affect the liver, especially when the leaf is used in large doses or the oil is ingested. Theoretically, concomitant use with hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver damage. Some of these drugs include acarbose (Precose, Prandase), amiodarone (Cordarone), atorvastatin (Lipitor), azathioprine (Imuran), carbamazepine (Tegretol), cerivastatin (Baycol), diclofenac (Voltaren), felbamate (Felbatol), fenofibrate (Tricor), fluvastatin (Lescol), gemfibrozil (Lopid), isoniazid, itraconazole, (Sporanox), ketoconazole (Nizoral), leflunomide (Arava), lovastatin (Mevacor), methotrexate (Rheumatrex), nevirapine (Viramune), niacin, nitrofurantoin (Macrodantin), pioglitazone (Actos), pravastatin (Pravachol), pyrazinamide, rifampin (Rifadin), ritonavir (Norvir), rosiglitazone (Avandia), simvastatin (Zocor), tacrine (Cognex), tamoxifen, terbinafine (Lamisil), valproic acid, and zileuton (Zyflo)

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Buchu is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, buchu might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Meadowsweet3 drug types · 39 drugs

Aspirin

Theoretically, meadowsweet might have an additive effect with other salicylate-containing drugs, such as aspirin.
Meadowsweet contains salicin, a plant salicylate; however, salicin doesn't seem to have the antiplatelet effects of aspirin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Choline Magnesium Trisalicylate (Trilisate)

Theoretically, meadowsweet might have an additive effect with other salicylate-containing drugs, such as choline magnesium trisalicylate.
Meadowsweet contains salicin, a plant salicylate.

KB by New Sun: Common Questions

Does KB by New Sun interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, KB has a known interaction with 2,179 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
KB contains 7 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.
Is this safe to take during pregnancy?
No. Uva ursi and juniper are rated unsafe in pregnancy. Buchu, marshmallow, hydrangea, and meadowsweet lack sufficient safety data, so they're best avoided too. Talk with your doctor before taking any supplement while pregnant.
What does uva ursi actually do?
Uva ursi is traditionally used to support urinary tract health, but it's rated possibly ineffective for urinary tract infections in our data. For other uses like bronchitis, we don't have enough evidence to rate it either way.
Can I take this if I'm on lithium?
You should not without talking to your doctor first. Four of the five checked herbal ingredients may increase lithium levels by reducing how your body excretes it, which could lead to lithium toxicity. Your dose might need adjustment.
Does this product have any fillers?
It contains one inactive ingredient, pullulan, which is used to make the capsule and help hold the formula together.
What's the most common side effect if I take it?
Uva ursi, one of the main ingredients, may cause diarrhea, nausea, stomach upset, or vomiting, especially in larger doses or longer use. It's meant for short-term use only.
Can I take this with aspirin?
Meadowsweet, one of the ingredients, contains salicylates and theoretically could have an additive effect with aspirin or similar pain relievers. Check with your pharmacist before combining them.
