HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Rose Hips Solid Extract by SuperiorLabs

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

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 1 active ingredient.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1.10 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

Rose Hips Solid Extract contains one active ingredient: Rosa canina (rose hip), delivered as a liquid with vegetable glycerine as an inactive ingredient. Rose hip is a concentrated plant extract—the data notes that supplement safety at these concentrated doses hasn't been as thoroughly studied as food-form rose hip, so the strength here matters.

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

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support normal healthy capillary integrity.
  • We looked for evidence on: vascular health, endothelial function, microcirculation.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

Rose hip is possibly effective for two uses: postoperative pain (pain after surgery) and osteoarthritis. The evidence for lowering cholesterol (hyperlipidemia) is insufficient—we don't have reliable data to say whether it works for that purpose.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Rose Hip

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.

Rose hip from Rosa canina is generally well tolerated, though concentrated supplements carry less-studied safety data than the food form. The most common side effects are flatulence and loose stools; gastrointestinal upset (nausea, diarrhea, heartburn, abdominal cramps) has been reported but often occurred at the same rate in people taking placebo.

Vertigo and headache are rare. Because this is a concentrated supplement with vitamin C content, high doses could theoretically cause osmotic diarrhea and further GI upset—your doctor should weigh whether this product is right for you before you start.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Rose hip is possibly effective for postoperative pain and osteoarthritis, but it interacts with several important medication groups—most notably birth control and hormone therapy, blood thinners, lithium, and chemotherapy drugs. If you take any of those, or any prescription medication at all, check your specific drugs with the tool on this page before you start.

Your own doctor or pharmacist can help you decide whether this product is right for you.

Rosa canina8 drug types · 213 drugs

Alkylating Agents

Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of alkylating agents but might also reduce the oxidative damage caused by certain alkylating agents.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. The use of antioxidants like vitamin C during chemotherapy is controversial. There is concern that antioxidants could reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals, such as cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, carmustine, busulfan, and thiotepa. In contrast, some researchers theorize that antioxidants might make chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that could interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. Further, some animal research suggests that the antioxidant effects of rose hip might attenuate cyclophosphamide-induced testicular toxicity. More evidence is needed to determine what effect, if any, antioxidants found in rose hip, such as vitamin C, have on the effectiveness and adverse effects of chemotherapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Aluminum

Theoretically, rose hip might increase the amount of aluminum absorbed from aluminum compounds.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. Theoretically, vitamin C increases the absorption of aluminum. Concomitant use might increase aluminum absorption, but the clinical significance of this is unknown. Administer rose hip two hours before or four hours after antacids.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that a constituent of rose hip, rugosin E, can induce platelet aggregation. This has not been shown in humans. Theoretically, concomitant use of rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antitumor Antibiotics

Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of antitumor antibiotics.
Rose hip contains the antioxidant vitamin C. There is concern that antioxidants might reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals, such as antitumor antibiotics. In contrast, other researchers theorize that antioxidants might make antitumor antibiotic chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that could interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. More evidence is needed to determine what effects, if any, antioxidants such as vitamin C have on antitumor antibiotic chemotherapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Estrogens

Theoretically, rose hip might increase blood levels of estrogens.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. Increases in plasma estrogen levels of up to 55% have occured under some circumstances when vitamin C is taken concurrently with oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy, including topical products. It is suggested that vitamin C prevents oxidation of estrogen in the tissues, regenerates oxidized estrogen, and reduces sulfate conjugation of estrogen in the gut wall. When tissue levels of vitamin C are high, these processes are already maximized and supplemental vitamin C does not have any effect on estrogen levels. However, increases in plasma estrogen levels may occur when women who are deficient in vitamin C take supplements.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, rose hip might increase blood levels of lithium.
Rose hip is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, rose hip might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Aspirin

Theoretically, rose hip might reduce the clearance of aspirin; however, its vitamin C content is likely too low to produce clinically significant effects.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. It has been suggested that acidification of the urine by vitamin C can decrease the urinary excretion of salicylates, increasing plasma salicylate levels. However, short-term use of up to 6 grams daily of vitamin C does not seem to affect urinary pH or salicylate excretion. The vitamin C content of rose hip is typically about 500 mg per 100 grams. Thus, a clinically significant interaction between rose hip and aspirin is unlikely.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of warfarin; however, its vitamin C content is likely too low to produce clinically significant effects.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. High doses of vitamin C may reduce the response to warfarin, possibly by causing diarrhea and reducing warfarin absorption. This occurred in two people who took up to 16 grams daily of vitamin C, and resulted in decreased prothrombin time. Lower doses of 5-10 grams daily of vitamin C can also reduce warfarin absorption, but this does not seem to be clinically significant. The vitamin C content of rose hip is typically about 500 mg per 100 grams. Thus, a clinically significant interaction between rose hip and warfarin is unlikely.

Rose Hips Solid Extract by SuperiorLabs: Common Questions

Does Rose Hips Solid Extract by SuperiorLabs interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Rose Hips Solid Extract has a known interaction with 213 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Rose Hips Solid 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.
What is rose hip, and what does it do?
Rose hip is the fruit of the Rosa canina plant, and it's used as a supplement for postoperative pain and osteoarthritis. The evidence shows it's possibly effective for both of those—meaning some research supports it, but more data would strengthen the claim.
Will rose hip work for my high cholesterol?
The evidence we have is insufficient to say whether rose hip lowers cholesterol. We simply don't have reliable data on that use, so it's not an established benefit.
What are the common side effects?
Flatulence and loose stools are the most common. Other gastrointestinal effects like nausea, heartburn, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps have been reported, though in many cases they occurred at the same rate in people taking placebo. Vertigo and headache are rare.
Is rose hip safe for pregnancy or breastfeeding?
We don't have enough safety data on rose hip during pregnancy or lactation to know either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant or planning to breastfeed.
Why do I need to check my medications before taking this?
Rose hip's vitamin C and other compounds can change how several important drugs work—especially birth control, blood thinners, and lithium. A concentrated supplement dose is more likely to cause interactions than food amounts, so it's important to run your prescriptions by your doctor or pharmacist first.
