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 hold no effectiveness ratings for Solomon's Seal in our data, so we can't tell you how well it works for any condition.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Solomon's Seal

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.

Solomon's Seal has limited safety data in people, so we recommend choosing a reputable brand and using it carefully. Long-term use has been reported to cause stomach irritation.

Large doses or overdoses may trigger nausea, diarrhea, and other digestive complaints. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy.

There isn't enough information to know whether it's safe while breastfeeding — talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it if you're nursing.

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 may be worth considering if you're exploring traditional herbal support, but the main thing to watch is its effect on blood sugar control. If you take any diabetes medications — including insulin or chlorpropamide — talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting this product.

Limited safety data means it's especially important to buy from a reputable maker.
