HelloPharmacist Scorecard of BioVent Drops by Native Remedies

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

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 6 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Formula” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (0.50 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

BioVent Drops contains 6 ingredients, including astragalus, mullein, yerba santa, wild cherry, chamomile, and lobelia. These herbs are traditionally used in respiratory and breathing support formulas.

The product is a liquid, suspended in glycerin and deionized 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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: respiratory health and immune support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Asthma, Bronchitis, Cough, Influenza, Pneumonia, Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Lobelia is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Smoking cessation (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Mullein is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Bronchitis, Asthma, Cough, Influenza, and more.
  • Also on file: Astragalus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Asthma.

The product facts do not contain effectiveness ratings for most of the ingredients in BioVent Drops at the dose or form present. Astragalus has been studied for allergic rhinitis (hay fever), asthma, and several other conditions, but evidence is insufficient to rate it.

Mullein similarly lacks reliable evidence for bronchitis, asthma, cough, and other respiratory uses. Lobelia is rated possibly ineffective for smoking cessation.

We hold no effectiveness data on the other ingredients in this formulation.

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 5 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 6 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Astragalus, mullein, yerba santa, and chamomile are generally well tolerated for short-term use, though human safety data are limited for all of them. Lobelia, however, can be toxic and cause serious effects at higher doses — caution is strongly advised.

Adverse effects reported for ingredients in this product include dizziness, skin reactions (rash, eczema, itching), and for lobelia specifically, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, throat irritation, tremors, and at high doses, tachycardia (rapid heartbeat), low blood pressure, and potentially fatal toxicity. Wild cherry contains cyanide-forming compounds and should not be used in large amounts; large doses can cause cyanide poisoning.

During pregnancy, the safety data advise against astragalus, mullein, yerba santa, and lobelia. Wild cherry is also best avoided due to cyanide-forming compounds.

We hold no pregnancy or breastfeeding data for chamomile in the facts on file. Similarly, all ingredients listed advise against use while breastfeeding due to limited safety data or toxicity concerns.

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?
  • 6 of the 6 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lobelia, Yerba Santa, Mullein, Wild Cherry, German Chamomile, among others.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,177 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 taking BioVent Drops, check with your pharmacist if you take lithium (a Moderate interaction with astragalus, yerba santa, and lobelia), immunosuppressants (Moderate, astragalus), antidiabetes drugs (Moderate, astragalus), chemotherapy drugs like cyclophosphamide (Moderate, astragalus), CYP3A4-metabolized drugs such as certain statins or antifungals (Moderate, wild cherry), or blood thinners like warfarin (Minor, mullein).

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.

BioVent Drops is intended for respiratory support, but most of its ingredients lack strong evidence for effectiveness. More importantly, if you take lithium, immunosuppressants, diabetes medications, blood thinners, or drugs broken down by liver enzyme CYP3A4, you need to check with your pharmacist before starting this product.

Pregnant or nursing mothers should avoid it. Anyone considering this product should talk to their pharmacist first.

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Lab tests on extracts from different parts of common and dense-flowered mullein plants show that they do have some blood-thinning effects, as they increase the time it takes for blood to clot. This is likely due to at least one of the known constituents of muellein, triterpenoid saponins. However, the effects appear to be mild and results have been inconsistent. Extracts from different plant parts have been show to have varying anticoagulant strengths, with water-based ones being more potent than alcohol-based extracts.

BioVent Drops by Native Remedies: Common Questions

Does BioVent Drops by Native Remedies interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, BioVent Drops has a known interaction with 1,176 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
BioVent Drops contains 6 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.
Can I take BioVent Drops if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The product facts advise against all the named ingredients during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to limited safety data or toxicity concerns — especially lobelia and wild cherry. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before considering this product if you're pregnant or nursing.
What side effects have been reported with this product?
Side effects from the individual ingredients include dizziness, rash, eczema, and itching. Lobelia specifically can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, throat irritation, tremors, and at higher doses, rapid heartbeat and dangerously low blood pressure. Wild cherry in large amounts can cause cyanide poisoning with headache, nausea, vomiting, and confusion.
Does this product actually work for respiratory or breathing issues?
The evidence isn't established in our data. Astragalus and mullein have been studied for asthma, bronchitis, and cough, but the evidence is insufficient to rate them. We hold no effectiveness data for the other ingredients in the dose or form used here.
Why does this product interact with so many medications?
Several ingredients — astragalus, yerba santa, and lobelia — are thought to have diuretic (water-removing) properties, which can affect how your body processes and clears lithium. Astragalus may also lower blood sugar and affect immune function. Wild cherry can slow how your liver breaks down certain drugs. These overlapping effects add up across many different medications.
Is lobelia safe to use in this product?
Lobelia can be toxic, especially at higher doses. Adverse effects start as low as 50 mg and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and throat irritation. At doses of 600 mg or higher, toxicity symptoms include rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, and potentially fatal effects. The product facts advise caution and warn against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
