HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 12-Hour Energy Caps by Terry Naturally

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 12, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Formula” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (125 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product has 3 active ingredients: thyme, Scots Pine, and Black Spruce. The thyme is part of a proprietary formula, so we can't break down its exact dose.

These plant extracts are suspended in a softgel made with extra virgin olive oil, gelatin, glycerin, and water.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Thyme's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: sustained energy and mental physical sexual health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cough, Bronchitis, Common cold, Laryngitis, Dyspepsia, fatigue — and 3 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Thyme is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Bronchitis (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Thyme is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Common cold, Cough, Dyspepsia, Laryngitis.

The evidence for thyme in this product isn't established yet. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate its use for bronchitis, common cold, aging skin, or alopecia areata (hair loss condition).

If you're looking for help with one of those issues, talk to your pharmacist about what the science actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Thyme

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.

Thyme in food amounts — the kind you'd use in cooking — is generally safe. Medicinal or concentrated doses are a different story, and the concentrated essential oil can be toxic if swallowed, so stick to what's in the capsule and don't add more on your own.

Orally, thyme seems well tolerated when used in medicine. A small number of people report allergic reactions, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, heartburn, nausea, or vomiting.

If any of those show up, stop and call us. Pregnancy and lactation data suggest it's likely safe, but medicinal amounts haven't been well studied — talk with your OB or midwife if you're pregnant or nursing and want to use this.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Thyme

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 — Thyme.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 379 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 before starting if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (Moderate interaction), estrogen replacement therapy (Moderate), anticholinergic drugs like oxybutynin (Moderate), or cholinergic drugs like donepezil (Moderate). For the other medications thyme may affect, your pharmacist can search them on this page.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is for people looking for an energy boost from plant extracts. If you take a blood thinner, estrogen therapy, or drugs for bladder or nerve conditions, check with your pharmacist first.

We couldn't verify safety data for two of the three ingredients, so definitely talk it over before you start.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, thyme leaf extract might have additive effects with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that thyme leaf extract has antiplatelet effects. However, this effect has not been observed in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use of cholinergic drugs and thyme essential oil might cause additive cholinergic effects.
In vitro evidence suggests that thyme essential oil and specific essential oil constituents like thymohydroquinone and carvacrol can inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE). However, this effect has not been observed in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Estrogens

Theoretically, thyme might competitively inhibit the effects of estrogen replacement therapy.
In vitro research shows that thyme has estrogen receptor-binding activity and phytoestrogen content. However, this effect has not been observed in humans.
