HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Coriander by Zongle Therapeutics

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 product contains one active ingredient: coriander. It's supplied as a liquid, with coriander oil (steam-distilled) included as the inactive ingredient.

The coriander is organic and comes from Zongle Therapeutics.

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 Coriander's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: promotes healthy digestion and immune function.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Diarrhea, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Digestive complaints, Gastrointestinal comfort.
  • The closest evidence on file: Coriander is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Coriander is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

The evidence we hold rates coriander's effectiveness for six conditions — anorexia, anxiety, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, and dyspepsia — as having insufficient reliable evidence to rate. That means the research isn't established enough in our data to say whether it works for any of these uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Coriander

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.

Coriander is generally well tolerated when taken orally or applied to skin. In normal food amounts, it's generally safe for most people.

However, food amounts are likely fine, but concentrated medicinal doses or essential oil should be avoided without medical advice — medicinal doses lack sufficient safety data. Rare serious reactions are possible: a case of anaphylaxis (a severe whole-body allergic reaction) has been reported in someone with prior occupational exposure to coriander dust.

Topically, coriander can cause contact dermatitis, itching, or a burning sensation in sensitive individuals. Occupational exposure to coriander dust has also been linked to rhinitis and asthma symptoms in some people.

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 — Coriander.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 717 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 this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take antidiabetes drugs (blood sugar medications), antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medications), CNS depressants (sedating or pain medications), or photosensitizing drugs (medications that increase sun sensitivity). All carry Moderate interactions with coriander.

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.

Organic Coriander by Zongle Therapeutics: Common Questions

Does Organic Coriander by Zongle Therapeutics interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Coriander has a known interaction with 717 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Coriander 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.
Is coriander safe in regular food amounts?
Yes — coriander is generally safe for most people in normal food amounts. However, this is a concentrated medicinal liquid, so that's different from the spice in your kitchen. Medicinal doses lack full safety data, so use caution and talk with your pharmacist.
Can coriander cause allergic reactions?
Most people tolerate it well, but rare serious reactions are possible. A case of anaphylaxis (severe whole-body allergic reaction) has been reported in someone with prior heavy exposure to coriander dust. If you have a spice allergy or suspect you're sensitive to coriander, talk with your doctor before taking this.
Can I use this if I'm on blood pressure or blood sugar medication?
Not without checking first. Coriander may lower blood pressure and blood sugar, which could be risky if you're already taking medications for those. Your doctor or pharmacist needs to know before you start, and your dose might need adjusting.
What does this product treat?
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that coriander reliably treats any of the six conditions we reviewed — anorexia, anxiety, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, or dyspepsia. The research isn't strong enough in our data to say it works for any of them.
What are the side effects?
Coriander is well tolerated overall. Topically, it can cause contact dermatitis, itching, or a burning sensation in sensitive people. Orally, anaphylaxis is rare but has been reported. If you have occupational or heavy exposure to coriander dust, rhinitis or asthma symptoms are possible.
