HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Rutin 500 mg by Solaray

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 supplement contains one active ingredient: rutin concentrate at 500 mg per capsule. Rutin is a flavonoid (a type of plant compound) that appears in foods like buckwheat and citrus.

The capsule also holds inactive ingredients — cellulose and rice bran extract — which are fillers and binders.

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 — see Rutin's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Vascular support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hemorrhoids, Varicose veins, Postoperative swelling, Chronic venous insufficiency, Capillary fragility, Edema.
  • The closest evidence on file: Rutin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hemorrhoids (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Rutin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Lymphedema, Varicose veins, Postoperative swelling.

The evidence for rutin isn't established for the uses we have data on. It's rated as having insufficient reliable evidence for aging skin, autism spectrum disorder, inflammatory bowel disease, diabetes, exercise-induced respiratory infections, and hemorrhoids.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the research so far hasn't been strong enough to say either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Rutin

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.

Rutin is generally well tolerated in food and short-term supplement use, though long-term safety data at supplement doses are limited. Some people may experience headache, flushing, or rashes.

The safety data for pregnancy are limited, but what exists suggests rutin is likely safe during pregnancy. Breastfeeding safety is unknown, so avoid supplement doses unless your doctor advises otherwise.

  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Rutin may be worth considering if you're curious about its potential, but the evidence for its effectiveness isn't solid yet. If you take diabetes medications, check with your pharmacist before starting — rutin might lower blood sugar further.

Rutin 500 mg by Solaray: Common Questions

Does Rutin 500 mg by Solaray interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Rutin 500 mg has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Rutin 500 mg 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
The safety data suggest rutin is likely safe during pregnancy, but the information is limited. If you're pregnant or planning to be, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting any supplement — they can give you personalized advice based on your health.
Is this safe while breastfeeding?
Safety during breastfeeding isn't well established, so it's best to avoid supplement doses of rutin unless your doctor advises otherwise. Check with your pharmacist or doctor before taking it.
What side effects might I get?
Some people experience headache, flushing, or rashes when taking rutin. Most people tolerate it well, especially at supplement doses and over the short term.
Does rutin actually work for anything?
The evidence isn't strong enough yet for us to say rutin is effective for the conditions we have data on — aging skin, autism, inflammatory bowel disease, diabetes, exercise-related infections, and hemorrhoids. More research is needed.
Why is there so little safety information?
Most rutin exposure comes from food, and food sources are well tolerated. Long-term safety data specifically for supplement doses are limited, which is why the label advises caution and recommends talking with your doctor before use.
