HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Watercress Extract Powder 900 mg by BulkSupplements.com

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 Jul 11, 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: watercress whole herb extract at 900 mg per serving. Watercress is a leafy green vegetable traditionally used as a nutritional supplement.

The powder also contains dextrin, an inactive ingredient used as a carrier or filler.

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 Watercress product and its label doesn't state a use — see Watercress'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.

The product facts we hold do not include effectiveness ratings for watercress extract, so we don't have established evidence data on what it may or may not do for any particular health goal.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Watercress

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.

Watercress is generally well tolerated when you eat it in normal food amounts. However, the safety data available is limited for concentrated supplements like this powder, so the facts advise against relying on medicinal or concentrated doses without more research.

When taken in excessive amounts, watercress can cause stomach and digestive irritation. Raw, wild watercress — especially from untreated water — can carry parasitic flukes that cause a liver infection called fascioliasis, with symptoms like abdominal pain, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash.

A clinical study found that a standardized extract at 750 mg per kilogram of body weight daily for five weeks did not harm liver function, which is reassuring, but overall safety data for concentrated supplements remains limited. Topically, watercress can cause contact dermatitis (an itchy rash or swelling).

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Watercress

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 — Watercress.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; lithium.
  • For scale: 6 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 your medications if you take lithium, chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex), or warfarin (Coumadin) before using this product. All three have documented Moderate-severity interactions with watercress.

No other medication interactions are documented in our data for this ingredient.

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.

This is a single-ingredient extract that may appeal to people looking for watercress in concentrated form. If you take lithium, a muscle relaxer like chlorzoxazone, or the blood thinner warfarin, you'll need to talk with your pharmacist before starting.

The safety data on medicinal doses is thin, so ask your pharmacist whether food amounts make sense for you.

Watercress Whole Herb Extract3 drug types · 6 drugs

Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Watercress might reduce the metabolism of chlorzoxazone and increase its effects and side effects. Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that a single ingestion of watercress 50 grams increases the chlorzoxazone plasma concentration-time curve by about 56% and increases its half-life by about 53%.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Lithium

Watercress is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, watercress might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Watercress contains vitamin K. Consuming large amounts of watercress might antagonize the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.

Watercress Extract Powder 900 mg by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Watercress Extract Powder 900 mg by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Watercress Extract Powder 900 mg has a known interaction with 6 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Watercress Extract Powder 900 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.
Is watercress extract safe to take every day?
Watercress in normal food amounts is generally well tolerated. However, the facts advise caution with concentrated supplements because safety data is limited for medicinal doses. Talk with your pharmacist about whether daily use of this extract makes sense for your situation.
Can watercress cause side effects?
In food amounts, it's well tolerated. In high doses, it can cause stomach irritation and digestive upset. Raw, wild watercress may carry parasitic flukes if from untreated water. Topically, watercress can cause a rash or itching (contact dermatitis).
What is watercress used for?
The product facts don't include information on what health goals watercress is meant to support, so we can't tell you that from our data.
Does this powder contain anything else besides watercress?
The product is one active ingredient — watercress extract — plus dextrin, an inactive filler used to make the powder.
I take warfarin. Can I use this product?
Watercress contains vitamin K, which can reduce how well warfarin works, especially in large amounts. This is a Moderate-severity interaction, so talk with your pharmacist or doctor before adding this to your routine.
Is it safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
The product facts don't include pregnancy or breastfeeding safety information for watercress, so there isn't enough data to know either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
