HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Astragalus 5:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection
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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: Astragalus Extract in powder form at a 5:1 concentration, meaning the extract is made by reducing the raw herb to one-fifth its original volume. There are no inactive ingredients listed.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for astragalus is limited in the data we hold. For allergic rhinitis (hay fever), amenorrhea, aplastic anemia, angina, asthma, and beta-thalassemia, the research evidence isn't established enough to rate how well it works.
If you're considering this product for a specific health concern, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the evidence supports its use for your situation.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Astragalus is generally well tolerated in the short term in healthy adults, though detailed safety data from human studies is limited. A few trial participants have reported dizziness and one case of a type of chest pain called lacunar angina, though these may not have been caused by the supplement itself.
The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough reliable information to know it's safe in those situations. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding before taking this product.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on immunosuppressants, lithium, cyclophosphamide, or antidiabetes drugs. Altogether, these interactions span 208 individual medications.
No other medication types have documented interactions with the ingredients we hold data for.
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.
Astragalus might be worth considering if you're looking for an immune support supplement and aren't taking immunosuppressants, lithium, chemotherapy, or blood sugar medications. If you do take any of those drug types, or any other prescriptions, check with your own doctor or pharmacist first — this product does have documented interactions worth reviewing.
Pregnant or nursing? Your healthcare provider can help you decide whether it's right for you.

HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Astragalus 5:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection does interact with several medication types.
The most serious documented concern is with immunosuppressants (drugs that weaken the immune system on purpose, like those used after organ transplant). Astragalus appears to stimulate immune function, which could theoretically reduce how well these medications work.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
You'll also want to flag lithium (a mood stabilizer), cyclophosphamide (a chemotherapy and immune-suppressing drug), and antidiabetes medications with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product. Astragalus may increase lithium levels due to its diuretic properties — meaning it promotes water loss — which could raise the risk of side effects.
Evidence on cyclophosphamide is mixed: some animal research suggests astragalus might reverse its immunosuppressive effects, while other studies show no effect. With antidiabetes drugs, astragalus itself may lower blood sugar, so taking it together could push your levels too low (low blood sugar/hypoglycemia).
Before you start, run your exact medications through the search tool on this page to make sure none of them fall into these categories.
