HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Anise Seed & Orris Combinatioon Strawberry Flavor by TerraVita

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 16, 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 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (0.13 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains two active ingredients: anise seed glycerite liquid extract and orris root glycerite liquid extract. The anise seed is prepared as a liquid extract in glycerin, which is also used as an inactive ingredient in the formula.

Strawberry flavor rounds out the liquid blend. Both extracts are in a proprietary combination, so the individual amounts of each aren't spelled out on the label.

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for anise seed's effectiveness is not established in our data—it's rated as insufficient reliable evidence for the uses typically mentioned, including migraine headache, lice, menopausal symptoms, PMS, and painful menstrual periods. Similarly, orris root's effectiveness for acne, aging skin, headache, respiratory infections, and diabetes is not established.

If you're considering this product for one of those purposes, you're working with limited science.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Anise Orris

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Anise seed is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, though the concentrated essential oil requires more caution than the food or tea form. The most common side effect is contact dermatitis if applied to skin in sensitive individuals; rarely, anise can trigger anaphylaxis orally or by inhalation, rhinitis, asthma, or allergic reactions in people who are sensitive.

Orris root safety data for internal use is limited; the fresh root or juice can cause severe skin and gut irritation, abdominal pain, vomiting, and bloody diarrhea, and allergic contact dermatitis has been reported. Because this is a liquid extract form, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you, especially if you have a known sensitivity to anise, orris, or related plants.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Anise Orris

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 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Anise.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 245 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.

Before you take this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on any antidiabetes drugs, because anise may increase the risk of low blood sugar. Also flag if you take estrogens or birth control pills (moderate interaction with anise), or if you're on fluoxetine (Prozac), imipramine (Tofranil), codeine, diazepam (Valium), or use caffeine regularly—anise has Moderate interactions with each of these based on animal research, though human evidence is unclear.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This anise and orris combination is mainly used for flavor and has interactions flagged with diabetes medications, hormone therapies, certain antidepressants, and a few other drugs. The effectiveness for common uses like migraine or PMS is not established in the data we hold.

If you take any of the medications mentioned in the med_watch section below, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting. If you have a history of allergies or sensitivities, especially to anise or iris family plants, run that by your healthcare provider too.

Anise Seed & Orris Combinatioon Strawberry Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Anise Seed & Orris Combinatioon Strawberry Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Anise Seed & Orris Combinatioon Strawberry Flavor has a known interaction with 245 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Anise Seed & Orris Combinatioon Strawberry Flavor contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 this safe during pregnancy?
Anise seed is rated as likely safe in pregnancy. Orris root, though, doesn't have enough safety information, and medicinal use during pregnancy is advised against. Since this product combines both, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it while pregnant to weigh the anise component against the orris uncertainty.
Is this safe while breastfeeding?
Anise seed is considered likely safe during breastfeeding. Orris root lacks sufficient safety data, and medicinal use while breastfeeding is not recommended. Check with your doctor or pharmacist to discuss whether this combination is right for you.
Can anise cause allergic reactions?
Yes. Anise can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, including contact dermatitis on the skin, rhinitis, asthma, and rarely anaphylaxis when taken orally or inhaled. If you have a history of plant allergies or sensitivities, let your doctor know before starting.
What is anise seed used for in this product?
Anise seed is traditionally used for migraine headache, lice, menopausal symptoms, PMS, and painful menstrual periods. However, the evidence for these uses is not established in the data we hold, so the effectiveness of this product for any of those purposes is unclear.
Is orris root safe to take internally?
Orris root is mostly used as a fragrance. Human safety data for internal medicinal use are limited. The fresh root or juice can cause severe skin and gut irritation, abdominal pain, vomiting, and bloody diarrhea. Since this is a liquid extract, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's appropriate for you.
