HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Myrrh Gum Tree Resin 1,100 mg by Nature's Way

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 Jul 11, 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 gum at 1,100 mg per capsule. Myrrh is a resin from the myrrh tree, traditionally used in herbal medicine.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients (hypromellose and magnesium stearate) as binders and capsule material.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Myrrh's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: traditional digestive support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Diarrhea, Peptic ulcers, Crohn disease, Ulcerative colitis, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Intestinal parasite infection — and 3 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Myrrh is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Crohn disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Myrrh is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea, Ulcerative colitis, Intestinal parasite infection, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and more.

The evidence for myrrh's effectiveness is limited. For the conditions our data covers, myrrh is rated likely ineffective for schistosomiasis (a parasitic infection).

For back pain, common cold, dental peri-implantitis, Crohn disease, and cancer, there isn't enough reliable evidence to know whether it works. If you're considering myrrh for one of those uses, talk with your pharmacist about what the current research actually shows.

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 safety profile for oral use (by mouth) isn't well studied, so caution is warranted. The safety data advises against myrrh during pregnancy because it's traditionally said to stimulate the uterus; one case report documented severe lower abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking myrrh, which resolved when she stopped.

Orally, myrrh may cause diarrhea in some people at doses of 2–4 grams, and topical use has been reported to cause skin irritation (dermatitis). There isn't enough safety information for breastfeeding, so it's best avoided in that setting as well.

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 pharmacist if you take antidiabetes drugs (insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, and others) — myrrh may increase your risk of low blood sugar. Also check if you're on warfarin (Coumadin), a blood thinner — myrrh may reduce how well it works.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Myrrh is not well studied for oral use, and it interacts with blood sugar medications and warfarin. It's not proven effective for most common uses.

If you take diabetes drugs or blood thinners, or you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your pharmacist before starting this product.

Myrrh Gum Tree Resin 1,100 mg by Nature's Way: Common Questions

Does Myrrh Gum Tree Resin 1,100 mg by Nature's Way interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Myrrh Gum Tree Resin 1,100 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 Gum Tree Resin 1,100 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 while pregnant?
No. Myrrh is traditionally said to stimulate the uterus, and the safety data advises against it during pregnancy. One report documented severe abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking myrrh. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before considering it.
Is myrrh safe to take by mouth long-term?
The safety data for oral myrrh isn't well studied. The facts we have focus mainly on short-term topical or rinse use. If you're thinking of taking it regularly, discuss that with your pharmacist first.
Will this help my back pain?
There isn't enough reliable evidence to know whether myrrh works for back pain. If you're looking for treatment options, talk with your doctor about approaches that have stronger evidence behind them.
What side effects might I get?
Taken by mouth, myrrh may cause diarrhea in some people, especially at higher doses (2–4 grams). Applied to skin, it can cause irritation. If you have a sensitive stomach or skin, mention it to your pharmacist.
Is myrrh safe while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety information to recommend myrrh during breastfeeding, so it's best avoided. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about safer options if you're nursing.
