HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Myrrh 2,000 mg by Nature's Answer

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Aug 27, 2026

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 product contains one active ingredient: myrrh (Commiphora molmol) oleo-gum-resin extract at 2,000 mg per dose. Myrrh is a plant resin traditionally used in herbal practice, though its effects in people aren't well established.

The liquid formulation also contains 78–92% certified organic alcohol as an inactive ingredient to preserve and extract the myrrh.

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 Myrrh product and its label doesn't state a use — see Myrrh'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 for myrrh's effectiveness is thin. It is rated likely ineffective for schistosomiasis (a parasitic infection).

For back pain, common cold, dental infections, cancer, and Crohn disease, there isn't enough reliable evidence in our data to rate whether it works or not. If you're considering this for a specific health concern, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the evidence supports its use.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Myrrh

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.

Myrrh's oral safety in people hasn't been well studied, so caution is warranted. At doses of 2–4 grams, some people report diarrhea.

Topically, myrrh can cause skin irritation (dermatitis) in some users. Do not take this product during pregnancy — myrrh is rated likely unsafe because it's traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus, and a case report documented severe lower abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking it, which resolved after she stopped.

Lactation safety data isn't on file.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Myrrh

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 — Myrrh.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 88 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 with your doctor or pharmacist before adding this product if you take antidiabetes drugs (moderate risk of low blood sugar) or warfarin (moderate risk that myrrh may reduce its effectiveness). These are the documented interaction concerns for this product's active ingredient.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

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 take antidiabetes drugs or warfarin, this product is worth a careful check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — myrrh may change how well these medications work. The evidence for what myrrh actually does is limited, and oral safety isn't well established.

Avoid it entirely if you're pregnant. For anyone else considering it, confirm it's right for your situation with your own healthcare provider.

Myrrh 2,000 mg by Nature's Answer: Common Questions

Does Myrrh 2,000 mg by Nature's Answer interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Myrrh 2,000 mg has a known interaction with 88 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Myrrh 2,000 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?
No — myrrh is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy. It's traditionally said to stimulate the uterus, and there's a case report of severe abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking it. Do not use this product if you are or may be pregnant.
Will this help my back pain or cold?
The evidence isn't clear enough to say. Myrrh is rated as having insufficient reliable evidence for both back pain and common cold, which means we don't have solid data one way or the other. Talk with your doctor about proven options for your condition.
What side effects should I watch for?
At typical doses, diarrhea is the main one reported with oral myrrh. Since oral safety hasn't been well studied, stop and contact your pharmacist or doctor if you notice anything unusual, especially abdominal pain or changes in your digestion.
Why is there so much alcohol in this liquid?
The alcohol (78–92% of the product) is there to extract and preserve the myrrh resin. It's an inactive ingredient — it keeps the myrrh stable in liquid form.
Should I use this if I take diabetes or blood thinner medication?
Not without checking first. Myrrh may increase your risk of low blood sugar if you take diabetes drugs, and it may make warfarin less effective. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your specific medications before starting this product.
