From the production point of view, glycyrrhizin is mainly extracted from the roots and rhizome cells of Glycyrrhiza glabra.

It is extracted from , sodium bicarbonate reaction, drying and other links. The process is complex and the production is difficult. At present, the number of domestic and foreign companies with mass production capabilities of this product is still relatively small. Therefore, due to technical limitations, licorice is relatively expensive, limiting its market development.
