HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mediterranean Oregano 1000 mg by Remedys 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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This is a straightforward single-ingredient supplement: 1000 mg of organic oregano per capsule, housed in a vegan capsule shell. That's the active ingredient — nothing else added as a filler.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 Oregano product and its label doesn't state a use — see Oregano'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.

We don't have strong evidence that oregano supplements work for any of the conditions listed here. The data shows insufficient reliable evidence for acne, bronchitis, asthma, headache, and upper respiratory infections.

That doesn't mean it doesn't help — it means the studies we have aren't robust enough to prove it either way. If you're thinking about this for one of those reasons, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the research actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Oregano

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.

Oregano from food is well tolerated and safe. At supplement doses — which are much stronger — we know less.

The most common side effect is mild stomach upset. Rarely, some people have had allergic reactions ranging from itching and breathing trouble to anaphylaxis, especially if you're sensitive to the mint family (Lamiaceae) of plants.

During pregnancy, stick to oregano in normal food amounts; medicinal doses should be avoided because there isn't enough safety data. While breastfeeding, the safety of oregano supplements isn't established — food amounts are fine, but higher doses aren't well studied.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Oregano

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 — Oregano.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 208 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.

Check before starting if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin or aspirin) — oregano may increase bleeding risk. Also double-check diabetes medications, since oregano may lower blood glucose.

No other major drug interactions are documented for this ingredient in our data.

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 on blood thinners, antiplatelet drugs, or diabetes medications, this product needs a pharmacist check first. Otherwise, oregano at food doses is generally well tolerated, though we don't have strong proof it treats the conditions marketed here.

Anyone with a known allergy to the mint family should be cautious. A quick conversation with us can tell you if it's right for your situation.

Mediterranean Oregano 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition: Common Questions

Does Mediterranean Oregano 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Mediterranean Oregano 1000 mg has a known interaction with 208 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Mediterranean Oregano 1000 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 if I'm pregnant?
The safety data advises against medicinal oregano doses during pregnancy. Normal food amounts of oregano are fine, but this supplement is much more concentrated. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice based on your situation.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Food amounts of oregano are fine while breastfeeding. The safety of oregano supplements at higher doses isn't established, so there isn't enough data to say either way. Check with your pharmacist or doctor before starting.
Will this help my asthma or bronchitis?
We don't have reliable evidence that oregano supplements work for asthma or bronchitis. The studies so far aren't strong enough to prove it helps or doesn't help. Your doctor can suggest treatments with better evidence behind them.
What side effects might I notice?
Mild stomach upset is the most common. At the doses found in food, oregano is well tolerated. Rarely, allergic reactions have happened in sensitive people — if you're allergic to plants in the mint family, be cautious. Serious reactions are rare but possible.
Is this just oregano seasoning in a capsule?
Yes — it's 1000 mg of organic oregano per capsule. There are no added fillers. Just keep in mind that this supplement dose is much stronger than the oregano you'd sprinkle on your food.
