HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Royal Abuta Plus 340 mg by Whole World Botanicals

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 3 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (340 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Royal Abuta Plus contains three active ingredients: lemongrass, abuta, and pasuchaca. This product is formulated as a proprietary blend, meaning the exact amount of each ingredient isn't broken out individually on the label—you're getting a combined 340 mg of all three together.

The inactive ingredients are cellulose and purified water, which help form and fill the capsule.

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: help maintain healthy blood sugar level.
  • We looked for evidence on: Diabetes, Blood sugar control, Glycemic management, Glucose metabolism.
  • The closest evidence on file: Abuta is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diabetes (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lemongrass is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diabetes.

The evidence supporting these ingredients is limited. Lemongrass has been traditionally used for headaches, colds, cough, diabetes, epilepsy, and fatigue, but we don't have reliable evidence that it works for any of these.

Abuta is similarly listed for abortion, asthma, migraine, contraception, cough, and diabetes—again, without reliable evidence backing those uses. Because the product is a proprietary blend without individual ingredient amounts listed, it's hard to know whether you're getting enough of any one ingredient to have an effect even if evidence existed.

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Safety data for these ingredients is sparse, especially at medicinal doses. Lemongrass is likely safe in food amounts, but concentrated extracts and essential oils have much less safety information; lemongrass is considered likely unsafe in pregnancy.

Abuta has very limited human safety data and is traditionally used to affect the uterus and childbirth, so it should be avoided during pregnancy; there's also no reliable safety data for breastfeeding, so it's best avoided then too. Pasuchaca has no safety data on file here.

Neither ingredient showed adverse effects in the data we hold, but the lack of reported side effects doesn't mean none occur—it often means the ingredient hasn't been studied closely.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Lemongrass Abuta

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Abuta, Lemongrass.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 780 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 taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take diuretic drugs (water pills), medications that are CYP3A4 substrates (a common class affecting many drugs), glucuronidated drugs, or pentobarbital. Lemongrass may slow or speed how your body clears these medications, potentially lowering effectiveness or raising side effects.

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 some safety-information gaps remain.

This product combines three plant ingredients with very limited effectiveness evidence and sparse safety data at medicinal doses. If you take diuretic medications (water pills), CYP3A4 substrates (a large medication class), glucuronidated drugs, or pentobarbital, this product poses documented interaction risks.

Before taking Royal Abuta Plus, check your medications against the search tool on this page and discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist.

Royal Abuta Plus 340 mg by Whole World Botanicals: Common Questions

Does Royal Abuta Plus 340 mg by Whole World Botanicals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Royal Abuta Plus 340 mg has a known interaction with 779 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Royal Abuta Plus 340 mg contains 3 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.
Is lemongrass safe to take every day?
Lemongrass in food amounts is likely safe, but concentrated extracts like those in supplements have much less safety data. The safety information we hold advises against medicinal or concentrated amounts due to limited data and traditional concerns. Talk with your pharmacist about how often and for how long it's okay to take this product.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No, not without talking to your doctor first. Lemongrass is considered likely unsafe in pregnancy, and abuta is traditionally used to affect the uterus and should be avoided during pregnancy. There's also no reliable safety data for abuta while breastfeeding. Discuss this product with your healthcare provider if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.
What is abuta used for in this product?
Abuta has been traditionally used for abortion, asthma, migraine, contraception, cough, and diabetes. However, we don't have reliable evidence that it actually works for any of these purposes. Its traditional uses, especially around pregnancy and childbirth, are why it should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Does this product work for colds or cough?
Both lemongrass and abuta are traditionally used for cough and cold symptoms, but we don't have reliable evidence that either ingredient actually works for these conditions. The evidence we hold isn't established enough to say whether this product would help.
What is pasuchaca, and does it interact with anything?
Pasuchaca is one of the three active ingredients in this blend, but we don't hold safety or interaction data for it. We can't check it against medications. If you want to know more about this ingredient, ask your pharmacist or look for additional sources on its use and safety.
Why can't I see how much of each ingredient is in here?
This product is sold as a proprietary blend—the label shows only the total weight (340 mg) for all three ingredients combined, not the individual amounts. This makes it harder to know whether you're getting enough of any one ingredient to have an effect, or to compare it to other similar products.
