Frequently Asked Questions about Buckthorn Extract

What is Buckthorn Bark (Frangula alnus) extract?

Buckthorn, botanically Frangula alnus (also written Rhamnus frangula) and commonly called alder buckthorn or glossy buckthorn, is a deciduous shrub of the family Rhamnaceae native to Europe and Western Asia, growing 3 to 6 meters tall with a bright yellow inner bark. The part used here is the dried, aged bark, sourced from Hungary. We offer the extract in two forms, an alcohol-free glycerite and a traditional alcohol-based tincture. Importantly, this is the buckthorn bark of Frangula - it is a completely different plant from Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides), which is an edible berry we sell as a separate product; the two share only the word "buckthorn." It is in the same botanical family as Cascara (Rhamnus purshiana), which we also sell separately. We label the botanical name (Frangula alnus) and the plant part (bark) on every page. Please read the important safety information below.

What is the difference between the alcohol-free and tincture versions?

Both are liquid extracts of the same Frangula alnus bark; only the solvent differs. The alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, suited to those who avoid alcohol. The tincture uses alcohol as the traditional solvent (48% alcohol by volume), together with vegetable glycerin and water. Both are taken by the drop. Choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol; choose the tincture for a classic alcohol-extracted format with a longer shelf life. With either form, please read the safety information below - this is a herb to use only under professional guidance.

Is this Sea Buckthorn, Cascara, or common buckthorn?

No to all three - this is buckthorn bark, Frangula alnus, and the distinctions matter. It is NOT Sea Buckthorn: that is Hippophae rhamnoides, an edible orange berry we sell as a separate product, and it is a completely different plant that just happens to share the word "buckthorn." It is also not Cascara, though the two are related - Cascara is Rhamnus purshiana, another Rhamnaceae bark we offer separately. And it is not "common buckthorn" (Rhamnus cathartica), a different, invasive species. This product is specifically Frangula alnus, the alder buckthorn, and the part is the aged bark. We print the botanical name and plant part on every page so the exact plant is clear.

How is Buckthorn Bark used, and how much?

Shake well before use. The traditional suggested amount is 20-30 drops (about 1 ml, one full squeeze of the dropper bulb) in 2 oz of water, or as directed by a qualified healthcare practitioner. Only aged, dried bark should ever be used. Do not exceed the suggested serving, and please read the safety information below before use.

Safety: who should NOT use Buckthorn Bark, and important cautions.

This is a potent traditional herb; use it only under the guidance of a qualified healthcare practitioner. Only aged, dried bark should be used - fresh bark causes severe vomiting and cramping. Do not use this product if you are pregnant or nursing, and do not give it to children. Do not use it if you have intestinal obstruction, appendicitis, undiagnosed abdominal pain, or an inflammatory bowel condition such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. Do not use it for more than one to two weeks or on a habitual basis: prolonged use of this kind of herb can lead to dependence and to loss of potassium and other electrolytes. Do not exceed the suggested serving. If you take any medication (for example, heart medication or diuretics) or have any medical condition, consult your physician before use, and discontinue use if any adverse reaction occurs. Keep out of the reach of children. This alcohol-free glycerite is best refrigerated after opening. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
