HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Sea Buckthorn Extract by Herbadiet

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 10, 2026

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 product contains one active ingredient: sea buckthorn berry extract. The capsule itself is made from vegetable cellulose, an inert plant-based shell with no active effect.

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 Sea Buckthorn's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: immune system and digestive and respiratory health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Common cold, Dyspepsia, Asthma, gastrointestinal health, bronchial health.
  • The closest evidence on file: Sea Buckthorn is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Asthma (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Sea Buckthorn is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Common cold, Dyspepsia.

Sea buckthorn extract is rated possibly effective for burns based on available evidence. For atopic dermatitis (eczema), the evidence suggests it's possibly ineffective.

For other uses—dyslipidemia (abnormal cholesterol), aging skin, and cancer—we don't yet have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sea Buckthorn

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.

Sea buckthorn is generally well tolerated as a food, but its safety at supplement doses hasn't been fully studied, so use caution. High doses may cause yellow staining of the skin; one case reported generalized yellowing after taking 100 grams daily for 6 months.

Applied to skin, it's been linked to dryness, irritation, redness, and rash (occurring in about 4% of study participants). There isn't enough data to know whether it's safe while breastfeeding, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Sea Buckthorn

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Sea Buckthorn.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 289 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.

Check before starting if you take blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs) or blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs like warfarin, clopidogrel, or aspirin. Sea buckthorn may lower blood pressure further or raise bleeding risk with either group.

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.

You might consider sea buckthorn if you have a burn and want to explore options, though talk with your doctor first. If you take blood pressure medication or blood thinners, check your exact medications before starting—the extract can affect how both work.

Start a conversation with your doctor or pharmacist to see if it's right for you.

Sea Buckthorn Extract by Herbadiet: Common Questions

Does Sea Buckthorn Extract by Herbadiet interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Sea Buckthorn Extract has a known interaction with 289 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Sea Buckthorn 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.
Can I take this if I'm on blood pressure medication?
Not without checking first. Sea buckthorn may lower blood pressure on its own, so combining it with blood pressure medication could drop your pressure too far. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before adding this to your routine.
What's the most common side effect?
When used as a capsule taken by mouth, the main concern at high doses is yellow staining of the skin. This is rare but has been reported with very large amounts (100 grams daily for months). If you apply the oil to skin, you might see dryness, irritation, or rash—rash showed up in about 4% of study participants.
Is sea buckthorn extract safe while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough reliable data to say either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's okay for you during breastfeeding—they can weigh your individual situation.
Does this product actually help with burns?
The evidence suggests it's possibly effective for burns, so it may help some people. Talk with your doctor about whether it makes sense for your situation—don't skip professional wound care.
Will this help my eczema?
The evidence for atopic dermatitis (eczema) points toward it being possibly ineffective, so it's unlikely to give you the results you're looking for.
