HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lymphatic & Blood Cleanse by Eclectic Herb
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
This product contains 5 active ingredients: nettle leaf concentrate (freeze-dried), dandelion root concentrate (freeze-dried), burdock root concentrate (freeze-dried), yellow dock root concentrate (freeze-dried), and red clover flower concentrate (freeze-dried). The freeze-drying process removes water while preserving the plant material.
These are combined in a proprietary blend, so the individual dose of each ingredient is not listed separately. The capsule itself is made with hypromellose, an inert inactive ingredient.
Does it work?
Not established
The product facts we hold do not establish reliable evidence that any of these ingredients are effective for any condition. Nettle leaf is rated possibly effective for diabetes, but the other ingredients—dandelion root, burdock root, yellow dock root, and red clover flower—all carry an insufficient evidence rating for the uses listed.
That means there isn't enough quality research to know whether they work for their traditional uses like joint pain, skin conditions, or menopausal symptoms. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for what you're trying to address.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Nettle leaf is generally well tolerated but can cause constipation or diarrhea, and it's not safe in pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Dandelion root may cause diarrhea, heartburn, or stomach upset, and rarely anaphylaxis in people allergic to ragweed and related plants; pregnancy and lactation safety is unclear.
Burdock root is likely safe as a food but has limited human safety data; avoid medicinal amounts during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Yellow dock acts as a laxative and contains compounds that can affect calcium and kidney function—avoid in pregnancy and while nursing.
Red clover is generally well tolerated short-term but has estrogen-like activity; it's likely safe in pregnancy but possibly unsafe while breastfeeding. Because this is a blend of five different plants, the risk of an allergic or unexpected reaction increases.
If you have a known allergy to ragweed, daisies, or related plants, or if you have liver disease, talk with your doctor before starting.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before taking this product, check your medications against these drug types: diuretics (water pills), digoxin (a heart medication), blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs like warfarin and aspirin, antidiabetes drugs, blood pressure medications, lithium, quinolone antibiotics, potassium-sparing diuretics, methotrexate, estrogen therapy, tamoxifen, and any drugs processed by your liver's CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP3A4 pathways. Use the medication interaction checker on this page to search your exact prescriptions.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product combines five traditional cleansing herbs but lacks strong evidence that it works for any specific condition. The main concern is its interaction with heart, blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood-thinning medications—if you take any prescription drug, check it against this product's interactions first.
Nettle and yellow dock in particular carry serious risks if you're on certain medications. Talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist before adding it to your routine, especially if you're pregnant, nursing, or managing a chronic condition.

Lymphatic & Blood Cleanse by Eclectic Herb Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Lymphatic & Blood Cleanse by Eclectic Herb contains five active ingredients, and through its nettle leaf, dandelion root, burdock root, yellow dock root, and red clover flower content, it interacts with a number of medications.
The most serious concerns are with yellow dock root and diuretics — yellow dock may cause potassium loss that compounds the effect of water pills, raising the risk of dangerous heart rhythm problems, especially if you're also taking digoxin (Lanoxin), a heart medication where low potassium can trigger toxicity.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Nettle leaf and dandelion root each interact with blood thinners like warfarin (Coumadin), though through different mechanisms — nettle's vitamin K content may reduce warfarin's effect, while dandelion root may increase bleeding risk. Dandelion also affects several drug-processing pathways in your liver (CYP1A2 and glucuronidated drugs), and both nettle and dandelion may lower blood sugar or interact with lithium, a psychiatric medication.
Burdock root and red clover carry minor to moderate risks with blood thinners and, in red clover's case, hormone therapies, methotrexate (used for autoimmune disease and cancer), and several liver-processed drugs.
Alternative drug interactions span diuretics (water pills), antidiabetes medications, lithium, anticoagulants and antiplatelets (blood thinners and aspirin-like drugs), digoxin, quinolone antibiotics, potassium-sparing diuretics, CYP450 substrates (a large group processed by your liver), estrogens, methotrexate, and tamoxifen. Altogether, these interactions span 1,054 individual medications.

Red Clover Flower Concentrate, Freeze-Dried
Estrogens
Theoretically, concomitant use of large amounts of red clover might interfere with estrogen therapy.
Red clover contains phytoestrogens which might have estrogenic activity in some people. Theoretically, red clover might compete for estrogen receptors and interfere with estrogen-containing drug therapy.
Methotrexate (Trexall, Others)
Theoretically, red clover might increase the risk of methotrexate toxicity.
In a case report, a 52-year-old female receiving weekly methotrexate injections for psoriasis developed symptoms of methotrexate toxicity, including severe vomiting and epigastric pain, after three days of taking red clover 430 mg daily. Toxicity resolved after red clover was discontinued. However, no liver function tests or methotrexate levels were reported.
Tamoxifen (Nolvadex)
Theoretically, the phytoestrogens in red clover might interfere with tamoxifen.
In vitro and animal research suggests that genistein, a constituent of red clover, might antagonize the antitumor effects of tamoxifen. However, there is some evidence from an animal study that red clover does not reduce the efficacy of tamoxifen. Until more is known, tell patients taking tamoxifen to avoid red clover.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Although some laboratory research suggests that red clover may have anticoagulant and antiplatelet activity, clinical research has not shown this effect.
In vitro research suggests that genistein in red clover has antiplatelet effects, and historically, red clover was thought to have anticoagulant effects due to its coumarin content. However, some experts state that this is unlikely as most natural coumarins have not been shown to have anticoagulant effects, and their content in red clover is low. Additionally, some clinical research in postmenopausal patients found no effect on coagulation or prothrombin time with the use of red clover flowering tops 378 mg daily for 12 months or red clover isoflavone (Rimostil) 50 mg daily for 2 years.
Caffeine
Theoretically, soy might reduce the clearance of caffeine; however, a small clinical study found no effect.
Red clover contains genistein. Taking genistein 1 gram daily for 14 days seems to inhibit caffeine clearance and metabolism in healthy females. However, this effect does not seem to occur with the lower amounts of genistein found in red clover. A clinical study in healthy postmenopausal individuals shows that taking red clover capsules standardized to contain 60 mg isoflavones twice daily for 14 days does not affect the pharmacokinetics of caffeine.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, red clover might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2; however, a small clinical study found no effect.
In vitro evidence shows that red clover inhibits CYP1A2. However, a clinical study in healthy postmenopausal individuals shows that taking red clover capsules standardized to contain 60 mg isoflavones twice daily for 14 days does not affect the pharmacokinetics of caffeine, a CYP1A2 probe substrate.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
Theoretically, red clover might increase the levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro evidence suggests that red clover weakly inhibits CYP2C19. This interaction has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates
Theoretically, red clover might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9; however, a small clinical study found no effect.
In vitro evidence suggests that red clover might inhibit CYP2C9. However, a clinical study in healthy postmenopausal individuals shows that taking red clover capsules standardized to contain 60 mg isoflavones twice daily for 14 days does not affect the pharmacokinetics of tolbutamide, a CYP2C9 probe substrate.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, red clover might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4; however, a small clinical study found no effect.
In vitro evidence shows that red clover might inhibit CYP3A4 isoenzymes. However, a clinical study in healthy postmenopausal individuals shows that taking red clover capsules standardized to contain 60 mg isoflavones twice daily for 14 days does not affect the pharmacokinetics of alprazolam, a CYP3A4 probe substrate.
Dandelion Root Concentrate, Freeze-Dried
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, taking dandelion root along with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.
In vitro research suggests that dandelion root inhibits platelet aggregation.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, dandelion might increase the risk for hypoglycemia when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that dandelion extract may have moderate alpha-glucosidase inhibitor activity and might also increase insulin secretion. Also, in a case report, a 58-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes who was being treated with insulin developed hypoglycemia 2 weeks after beginning to eat salads containing dandelion.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, dandelion might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Laboratory research suggests that dandelion might inhibit CYP1A2. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans. However, until more is known, watch for an increase in the levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2 in patients taking dandelion.
Glucuronidated Drugs
Theoretically, dandelion might increase the clearance of drugs that are UDP-glucuronosyltransferase substrates.
There is some preliminary evidence that dandelion might induce UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, a phase II enzyme.
Lithium
Theoretically, through diuretic effects, dandelion might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that dandelion has diuretic properties. As diuretics can increase serum lithium levels, the dose of lithium might need to be decreased when taken with dandelion.
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics
Theoretically, dandelion might increase the risk of hyperkalemia when taken with potassium-sparing diuretics.
Dandelion contains significant amounts of potassium.
Quinolone Antibiotics
Theoretically, dandelion might lower fluoroquinolone levels.
Animal research shows that dandelion reduces absorption of ciprofloxacin and can lower levels by 73%. However, this effect has not been reported in humans.
Nettle Leaf Concentrate, Freeze-Dried
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, stinging nettle might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Clinical research shows that stinging nettle might decrease blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes.
Diuretic Drugs
Theoretically, combining stinging nettle with diuretic drugs may have additive effects.
Animal research suggests that the above ground parts and roots of stinging nettle may have a diuretic effect.
Lithium
Theoretically, stinging nettle might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that stinging nettle has diuretic and natriuretic properties, which could alter the excretion of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
There is some concern that stinging nettle might decrease the effects of anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin.
Stinging nettle contains a significant amount of vitamin K. When taken in large quantities, this might interfere with the activity of warfarin.
Burdock Root Concentrate, Freeze-Dried
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, taking burdock with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs might increase the risk of bleeding.
In vitro research shows that lignans from burdock reduce rabbit platelet aggregation by inhibiting platelet activating factor. This interaction has not been reported in humans.
Yellow Dock Root Concentrate, Freeze-Dried
Digoxin (Lanoxin)
Theoretically, yellow dock might increase the risk of digoxin toxicity when used long-term or in large amount.
When yellow dock is used chronically or in large amounts, hypokalemia may occur. This might increase the toxic effects of digoxin.
Diuretic Drugs
Theoretically, yellow dock might increase the risk of hypokalemia when taken with diuretics.
When yellow dock is used chronically or in large amounts, hypokalemia may occur, and overuse of yellow dock might compound diuretic-induced potassium loss.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, the laxative effects of yellow dock might increase the effects of warfarin, including the risk of bleeding.
The anthraquinones in yellow dock have a mild stimulant laxative effect. Consuming excessive amounts can cause diarrhea. Diarrhea can increase the effects of warfarin, increase international normalized ratio (INR), and increase the risk of bleeding.
