HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Resinall K by Health Concerns

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 8 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Herbal Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Resinall K is a liquid formula with 8 active ingredients: frankincense, borneol, myrrh, corydalis, tienchi, dragon's blood, catechu, and carthamus — traditional plant materials used in herbal practice. The product also contains alcohol and glycerine as inactive ingredients (excipients that help deliver and preserve the formula).

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Topical and internal herbal wound and skin support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Wound healing, Canker sores, Gingivitis, Oral mucositis, Diarrhea, Mouth ulcers — and 3 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Boswellia Serrata is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Myrrh is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea, Gingivitis, Oral mucositis, Wound healing, and more.

The evidence supporting these ingredients is limited. Frankincense carries insufficient reliable evidence for acne, aging skin, back pain, cancer-related fatigue, and radiation dermatitis.

Myrrh shows the same picture for back pain, cancer, common cold, dental issues, and Crohn disease; it is rated likely ineffective for schistosomiasis. Catechu and the other ingredients lack established effectiveness ratings in the data we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Boswellia Serrata Myrrh Panax Notoginseng Dragon's Blood Catechu

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 4 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Frankincense is generally well tolerated when used topically or by inhalation short-term, but topical use may rarely cause dermatitis, irritation, or itching — and in isolated case reports, allergic skin reactions including contact dermatitis. The data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety information.

Myrrh is considered okay for short-term topical or mouth-rinse use, but oral safety isn't well studied. Orally, it may cause diarrhea at higher doses (2–4 grams).

The data advises against use during pregnancy because myrrh is traditionally said to stimulate the uterus, and one case report documented severe abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking it. Safety while breastfeeding is unknown.

Catechu is likely fine for short-term use in food-like amounts, but concentrated supplements lack human safety data. It too should be avoided during pregnancy and when breastfeeding, due to insufficient information.

Dragon's Blood has limited human safety data and should be avoided in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

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?
  • 4 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Boswellia Serrata, Catechu, Myrrh, Panax Notoginseng.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 1,154 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 start Resinall K, double-check with your pharmacist if you take warfarin or other blood thinners, diabetes medications, blood-pressure drugs, theophylline, or immunosuppressants. These are the medication types with documented Moderate-severity interactions with this product's ingredients.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Resinall K is not a simple product — it interacts with blood thinners, diabetes drugs, blood-pressure medications, and a few others. If you take warfarin, any diabetes or blood-pressure medication, or theophylline, talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting this.

The herbs aren't established to work for any condition listed here. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, avoid it.

Resinall K by Health Concerns: Common Questions

Does Resinall K by Health Concerns interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Resinall K has a known interaction with 1,153 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Resinall K contains 8 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 use Resinall K if I'm pregnant?
No — multiple ingredients here carry safety concerns in pregnancy. Frankincense, myrrh, catechu, and dragon's blood all advise against use during pregnancy due to either insufficient safety data or theoretical risks (myrrh is traditionally said to stimulate the uterus). Talk with your doctor before considering this product.
Can I use Resinall K if I'm breastfeeding?
Most ingredients here lack safety data while breastfeeding and should be avoided — frankincense, myrrh, dragon's blood, and catechu all advise against it. Only catechu is rated likely safe during lactation. Ask your pharmacist or doctor before using this product.
What are frankincense and myrrh in this formula for?
They're traditional plant materials used in herbal formulas, but the evidence supporting them for any specific health condition is insufficient. The data we hold does not establish that they work for acne, aging skin, back pain, or the other conditions listed.
Can Resinall K cause skin irritation?
Yes — frankincense may cause dermatitis, irritation, or itching when applied topically. In rare cases, allergic skin reactions including contact dermatitis have been reported. If you develop a rash or other skin reaction, stop use and contact us.
What are the main side effects I should watch for?
Frankincense may cause topical irritation or allergic reactions. Myrrh may cause diarrhea at higher oral doses. Catechu, when combined with another ingredient in one product, has been linked to liver and lung injury in case reports, though that specific combination product is different from Resinall K. If you notice unusual symptoms, contact your pharmacist.
Is this product safe to use long-term?
The data suggest these ingredients are okay for short-term use, but long-term safety in concentrated supplements hasn't been well studied. Talk with your pharmacist about how long you plan to use this.
