HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Parsley Extract by BulkSupplements.com

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: parsley extract. Parsley is an herb traditionally used to support urinary tract and skin health, though the evidence for these uses isn't yet established in our data.

There are no inactive ingredients listed for this powder.

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 Parsley product and its label doesn't state a use — see Parsley'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 parsley extract isn't established in the data we hold. Traditional uses include support for urinary tract infections, melasma (a skin pigmentation issue), osteoarthritis, insect bites, and nonmelanoma skin cancer, but none of these have sufficient reliable evidence to rate at this time.

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 in low to moderate food amounts. However, concentrated extracts and large doses may not be safe.

The safety data advises against use in pregnancy — medicinal or large amounts may stimulate the uterus, so stick to normal food amounts only if you're pregnant. For breastfeeding, there isn't enough data on file to know either way; talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

In very high doses (200 grams of parsley oil or 10 grams or more of certain constituents called apiole or myristicin), rare serious effects like anemia, low blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, and bleeding disorders have been reported. A rare case of anaphylaxis (severe allergic shock) has also been documented.

Parsley contains apiole, a potentially toxic compound at high doses.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Parsley

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.

Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're on blood thinners (anticoagulants) or antiplatelet drugs, diabetes medications, diuretics, warfarin, pentobarbital or other sedatives, sirolimus, or any medications broken down by your liver's CYP1A2 enzyme. Parsley may also increase the severity of an allergic reaction if you take aspirin and have a parsley allergy.

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.

Parsley extract may be worth considering if you're interested in traditional herbal support, but the effectiveness for its common uses isn't yet established. If you take any blood thinners, diabetes medications, diuretics, warfarin, sedatives, immunosuppressants, or drugs metabolized by your liver, you should check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

Talk it over with them to make sure it's right for you and your medications.

Parsley 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 Extract by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Parsley Extract by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Parsley Extract 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 Extract 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 extract safe to take if I'm pregnant?
The safety data advises against it. Medicinal or large amounts may stimulate the uterus. Stick to normal food amounts only during pregnancy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
Can I take this if I'm on a blood thinner like warfarin?
Not without checking first. Parsley contains vitamin K, which can reduce warfarin's effectiveness, and it may also have antiplatelet effects that increase bleeding risk. Your doctor or pharmacist needs to review this before you start.
What side effects might I experience?
At low to moderate doses, parsley is generally well tolerated. Very high doses are unsafe and can cause serious effects like anemia, kidney problems, or allergic reactions. If you have a known parsley allergy, avoid this product.
