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

This is a single-ingredient Solomon's Seal product and its label doesn't state a use — see Solomon's Seal's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

We don't hold effectiveness data for Solomon's Seal in our records, so I can't tell you what the research says about how well it works or for what conditions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Solomon's Seal is an herbal liquid with a long traditional use, but safety data in people is limited. If you take diabetes medications — especially insulin or chlorpropamide — you'll need to discuss this with your pharmacist or doctor before starting, because it may lower your blood sugar.

Stick with reputable products and watch for stomach upset with long-term use.
