HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Blue Flag Root 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.

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: blue flag root glycerite liquid extract. Blue flag root has been used traditionally as a laxative and for digestive support.

The formula also includes glycerin and mint flavor as inactive ingredients.

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

This is a single-ingredient Blue Flag product and its label doesn't state a use — see Blue Flag's own graded uses on its monograph.

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

We don't have effectiveness data on file for blue flag root. The evidence for what it's meant to do hasn't been established in our records, so we can't tell you how well it works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Blue Flag

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.

Blue flag root can cause nausea, vomiting, and irritation of the mouth and throat, especially when the root is fresh. The volatile oils in it can also trigger headache, throat irritation, eye inflammation, and tearing.

Because of potential toxicity and lack of safety data, the facts advise against using it during pregnancy. While breastfeeding, safety information is lacking, so it's rated likely unsafe — avoid it.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Blue Flag

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Blue Flag.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 78 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 with us before taking this if you're on digoxin (a heart medication) — it's a major interaction. Also double-check if you take warfarin or other blood thinners, or any diuretics or water pills.

These are moderate interactions, but they matter.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a single-ingredient product meant for digestive support, but it comes with real risks if you take heart or blood medications. If you're on digoxin, warfarin, or diuretics, talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it.

Blue Flag Root Glycerite Liquid Extract3 drug types · 78 drugs

Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, overuse or abuse of this product increases the risk of adverse effects from cardiac glycoside drugs.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Overuse of blue flag might compound diuretic-induced potassium loss. There is some concern that people taking blue flag along with potassium depleting diuretics might have an increased risk for hypokalemia. Initiation of potassium supplementation or an increase in potassium supplement dose may be necessary for some patients. Some diuretics that can deplete potassium include chlorothiazide (Diuril), chlorthalidone (Thalitone), furosemide (Lasix), hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, Hydrodiuril, Microzide), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Blue flag has stimulant laxative effects. In some people blue flag can cause diarrhea. Diarrhea can increase the effects of warfarin, increase international normalized ratio (INR), and increase the risk of bleeding. Advise patients who take warfarin not to take excessive amounts of blue flag.
