HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Bilberry Leaf Mint 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

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: bilberry leaf glycerite liquid extract. The extract comes from bilberry leaves and is delivered in a glycerin base with mint flavoring.

The glycerin and mint flavor are inactive ingredients that help with taste and preservation.

Does it work?

Leans against
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
Leans against

The strongest graded evidence we hold for the stated purpose leans against a benefit.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Eye and vision health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Asthenopia (eye strain), Cataracts, Diabetic retinopathy, Dry eye, Glaucoma — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Bilberry is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Night vision (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Bilberry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Cataracts, Diabetic retinopathy, Dry eye, and more.

The evidence for bilberry's effectiveness is mixed. For night vision, the data shows it's likely ineffective.

For age-related cognitive decline, age-related macular degeneration, atherosclerosis, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), and chronic venous insufficiency, we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works. If you're considering this product for one of these uses, the science doesn't yet support a clear benefit.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bilberry

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.

Bilberry fruit itself is generally well tolerated as food, but long-term safety data for concentrated supplements like this one is limited. The safety notes advise caution with supplement doses due to a lack of reliable information.

The most common side effects are dark-colored stools, flatulence, and gastrointestinal discomfort—and some people report temporary darkening of the tongue, teeth, or stools. These effects seem mild and reversible, but they're worth knowing about.

Bilberry is rated likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, though supplement safety data in these situations is still limited.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Bilberry

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 — Bilberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 275 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 take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel)—bilberry may increase bleeding risk. Also confirm it's safe if you take diabetes medications, certain drugs processed by the CYP2E1 liver enzyme, or erlotinib (a cancer medication).

These are Moderate-severity interactions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with graded evidence leaning against its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is a single-ingredient bilberry leaf extract. It's generally well tolerated, but it interacts with blood thinners, diabetes medications, and a few other drug types—so check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're on any prescriptions.

If you're using it for night vision or cognitive function, know that the evidence doesn't yet support those uses.

Bilberry Leaf Glycerite Liquid Extract4 drug types · 275 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, bilberry fruit extract might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro, animal, and clinical research suggest that anthocyanidin extracts from bilberry can inhibit platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, bilberry leaf or fruit extract may increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that bilberry leaf extract might have blood glucose-lowering activity. Also, one small clinical trial in patients with type 2 diabetes shows that taking bilberry fruit extract 470 mg as a single dose prior to an oral glucose tolerance test lowers plasma glucose levels when compared with placebo.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, bilberry fruit extract might decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
Animal research shows that exposure to small concentrations of bilberry extract in drinking water for around one month increased CYP2E1 activity by 31%. However, exposure over a 2-month period did not increase CYP2E1 activity. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Erlotinib (Tarceva)

Theoretically, bilberry fruit extract might reduce the efficacy of erlotinib.
In vitro research suggests that bilberry fruit extract and its constituents, delphinidin and delphinidin-3-O-glucoside, inhibit the activity of erlotinib. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Bilberry Leaf Mint Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Bilberry Leaf Mint Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Bilberry Leaf Mint Flavor has a known interaction with 275 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Bilberry Leaf Mint Flavor contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Bilberry is rated likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. That said, safety data for concentrated supplements in these situations is limited, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.
Will this help my night vision?
The data shows bilberry is likely ineffective for night vision, so this product isn't a reliable choice for that purpose.
What side effects might I notice?
Most common are dark stools, gas, and stomach discomfort. Some people also see temporary darkening of the tongue or teeth. These effects are usually mild and reversible.
Is this product safe long-term?
Bilberry fruit as food is safe, but long-term safety data for concentrated supplements is limited. The safety notes advise caution with supplement doses because we don't have enough reliable information yet.
Why is this a liquid instead of a capsule?
The product facts don't explain the choice of form, but a liquid glycerite extract is one way to deliver bilberry and can be easier for some people to take.
