HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Pygeum 100 mg by NewtonEverett
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
This product contains one active ingredient: Pygeum Bark Extract at 100 mg per softgel. Pygeum is an herbal extract from the bark of an African tree, traditionally used for prostate health.
The softgel capsule also contains several inactive ingredients — soybean oil, pumpkin seed oil, yellow beeswax, soy lecithin, gelatin, glycerin, purified water, and caramel — that help deliver and preserve the extract.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Pygeum Bark Extract is likely effective for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that can cause urinary symptoms in older men. For other uses listed — Alzheimer disease, malaria, sexual desire, and psychosis — the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate them.
That doesn't mean the ingredient doesn't work for those purposes; it means reliable research data isn't available to us yet.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Pygeum Bark Extract is generally well tolerated short-term, though quality and long-term safety data are limited. In clinical research, nausea and abdominal pain were reported by some participants, but at rates similar to placebo — so they weren't clearly caused by the extract itself.
Because this product is used for men's prostate health, it has no established safe use in pregnancy. If you're breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety information, so it's best avoided.
If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning either, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for Pygeum Bark Extract. Still, check your exact medications in the tool below, or ask us — it's always worth a second look.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Pygeum is a solid choice if you're looking for herbal support for prostate symptoms and BPH — the evidence backs that use. It's well tolerated for short-term use, though long-term data is thin.
If you're male, take any other drugs, or have any prostate or urinary concerns, run this past us first.
