HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Parsley by NutraMedix

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

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: Parsley Leaf, Stem Extract. It's a concentrated liquid form of parsley, made by extracting the leaf and stem portions of the plant.

The inactive ingredients are mineral water and ethanol, which serve as the liquid base.

Does it work?

No specific claim
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
General wellness

This Parsley product is marketed for general wellness, not a specific health condition, so there's no single claim to grade — see Parsley's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“Antioxidant and detoxification support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.

The evidence for parsley extract isn't established in our data. We don't have reliable evidence to rate it for urinary tract infections, melasma, osteoarthritis, insect bites, or skin cancer.

That doesn't mean it won't help — it means the studies we have aren't strong enough yet to say either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Parsley

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.

Parsley is generally well tolerated at low to moderate doses, but concentrated extracts like this one carry more caution than the herb you'd use in cooking. Large doses can cause serious problems: very high intakes have been linked to hemolytic anemia (breakdown of red blood cells), low blood pressure, liver or kidney damage, and blood clotting disorders.

Parsley contains apiole, a compound that's toxic at high doses — anything over 10 grams of apiole specifically can trigger hemolytic anemia or blood clotting issues. Rare cases of severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis with swelling of the throat, have been reported.

We don't have safety data on this supplement during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

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 — Parsley.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 443 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.

Double-check this product if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants) or warfarin, diabetes medications, sedatives or sleep aids, diuretics (water pills), or the transplant medication sirolimus. All carry Moderate interaction risk.

If you have a known parsley allergy and take aspirin, that combination has caused severe reactions in the past.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This concentrated parsley extract isn't for everyday use or prevention — it interacts significantly with blood thinners, diabetes medications, sedatives, diuretics, and transplant drugs. If you take any prescription medication, check it against our tool below before starting.

Talk to your pharmacist or doctor if you're considering it for a specific health concern.

Parsley Leaf, Stem Extract8 drug types · 443 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, parsley might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley has antiplatelet effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, parsley might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley might decrease blood glucose. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, parsley might increase serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Laboratory research suggests that parsley can inhibit CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, parsley might enhance or interfere with the effects of diuretic drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley seed extract increases urine elimination. Parsley leaf and root might also interfere with diuretic therapy due their purported aquaretic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, parsley might increase the duration of pentobarbital effects.
Animal research suggests that parsley juice prolongs the action of pentobarbital, perhaps by decreasing cytochrome P450 levels. It is not known if this occurs in humans or if this applies to other barbiturates or sedatives.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sirolimus (Rapamune)

Theoretically, large quantities of parsley might increase sirolimus levels.
In one case report, an adult female with a history of kidney transplant presented with elevated blood sirolimus levels, approximately 4-7 times greater than previous measures, after daily consumption of a juice containing approximately 30 grams of parsley for 7 days. Sirolimus levels returned to normal a week after the parsley juice was discontinued.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, large amounts of parsley leaf and root might decrease the effects of warfarin.
Parlsey contains vitamin K.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Aspirin

Theoretically, aspirin might increase the severity of allergic reactions to parsley.
In one case, severe urticaria and swelling were reported after taking aspirin with parsley in an individual with a known mild parsley allergy.

Parsley by NutraMedix: Common Questions

Does Parsley by NutraMedix interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Parsley has a known interaction with 443 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Parsley 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 parsley safe to use while pregnant or breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for this concentrated supplement during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Our safety notes do caution that medicinal or large amounts may stimulate the uterus, so stick to normal food amounts only. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice — they can weigh the risks and benefits for your situation.
What are the side effects of parsley extract?
At low to moderate doses, parsley is generally well tolerated. Large doses are unsafe and can cause hemolytic anemia (breakdown of red blood cells), low blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, and blood clotting disorders. Rare but serious reactions include anaphylaxis with throat swelling. Very high intakes of the compound apiole are especially risky.
Can I use this if I'm allergic to parsley?
No. A concentrated extract is riskier than food amounts. Severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported. If you have a parsley allergy and take aspirin, that combination has worsened reactions in at least one case.
Will parsley help with urinary tract infections or arthritis?
We don't have reliable evidence to rate parsley for urinary tract infections, osteoarthritis, or the other conditions sometimes mentioned for it. The studies we have aren't strong enough yet to say whether it helps.
How much parsley extract is safe to take?
The facts don't specify a safe dose for this product. Because very high doses (especially more than 10 grams of the toxic compound apiole) carry serious risks, and this is a concentrated liquid, talk with your pharmacist about appropriate dosing for you.
