HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Super Artemisinin by NutriCology

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.

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Super Artemisinin contains 2 active ingredients: artemisinin and sweet wormwood (leaf) oil. Artemisinin is the main compound extracted from sweet annie, a plant used in traditional medicine.

Sweet wormwood oil is another form of the same plant material. The capsules also contain inactive ingredients — hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, and nu-mag — which help hold the formula together and aid absorption.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: artemisinin from sweet wormwood plant.
  • We looked for evidence on: Malaria, fever, inflammation, parasitic infection.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Sweet Annie is rated "Possibly Effective" for Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Sweet Annie is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Malaria.

Artemisinin and sweet wormwood may be possibly effective for allergic rhinitis (hay fever) based on available evidence. For nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, malaria, and osteoarthritis, the evidence isn't established in the data we hold — there's insufficient reliable evidence to rate how well it works.

This product is generally used short-term, and quality and dose vary widely across supplements, so it shouldn't replace treatments your doctor has proven will work for you.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sweet Annie

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.

Super Artemisinin is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth. The most common side effects are nausea and vomiting.

Rarely, liver damage (hepatotoxicity) has been reported — one case described a person who developed hepatitis-like symptoms after taking artemisinin 200 mg three times daily for 10 days; symptoms resolved after stopping. One mild allergic reaction with rash and cough has also been reported, and some people have felt numbness of the tongue or throat itching after sublingual doses.

The safety data advises against using this product during pregnancy because of possible harm to the developing baby. There isn't enough safety information to use it while breastfeeding — talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you in that situation.

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 — Sweet Annie.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 890 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 with your doctor or pharmacist before taking Super Artemisinin if you take any drug that damages the liver or any medication broken down by your liver's CYP3A4 or CYP2B6 enzymes — both are Moderate severity interactions. The research on how much this product speeds up or slows down liver metabolism is mixed, so it's important to confirm your specific drugs won't be affected before you begin.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Super Artemisinin may help with hay fever symptoms, but the evidence for other uses isn't established. It poses a Moderate risk of interacting with a large number of medications, especially those your liver processes or drugs that can damage your liver.

Before you start, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your current medications and whether this product fits your situation. Avoid it if you're pregnant or breastfeeding unless you've cleared it with your healthcare provider.

Artemisinin3 drug types · 889 drugs

Cytochrome P450 2B6 (Cyp2B6) Substrates

Sweet Annie may alter plasma levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP2B6.
In vitro research shows that the Sweet Annie constituent artemisinin induces CYP2B6, possibly increasing CYP2B6 activity by 1.6-fold. However, Sweet Annie extract seems to inhibit the activity of CYP2B6 in vitro, suggesting that other constituents of Sweet Annie play a role in its effects on the overall activity of this enzyme. More information is needed to determine whether taking Sweet Annie extract affects the metabolism of CYP2B6 substrates.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Sweet Annie may alter plasma levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that the Sweet Annie constituent artemisinin induces CYP3A4, possibly increasing CYP3A4 activity by 1.9-fold. However, Sweet Annie extract seems to inhibit the activity of CYP3A4 in vitro, suggesting that other constituents of Sweet Annie play a role in its effects on the overall activity of this enzyme. More information is needed to determine whether taking Sweet Annie extract affects the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use might have additive adverse hepatotoxic effects.
There is some concern that Sweet Annie can adversely affect the liver.
