HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Bo He Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra
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
Bo He Alcohol Free contains one active ingredient: peppermint herb extract in dried form. The product also includes glycerin and water as inactive ingredients (the liquid base).
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Peppermint extract is likely effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — the main use for this ingredient. It's possibly effective for indigestion (dyspepsia), chemotherapy-induced nausea, barium enema-related colon spasms, and side effects from endoscopy.
The data comes from clinical research, though for some of these uses the evidence is not yet conclusive.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Peppermint is generally well tolerated when taken orally. The most common side effects are abdominal pain, anal burning, belching, diarrhea, dry mouth, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting — most people don't experience these.
Rare allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis (sudden swelling of the lips, tongue, and throat with breathing trouble), have been reported. The safety data advises caution with concentrated peppermint oil or supplements unless your provider approves.
Peppermint extract in this product is considered likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, though concentrated forms should be avoided without medical guidance.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your pharmacist if you take cyclosporine (an immunosuppressant), blood pressure medications, blood thinners like warfarin, statins, or any other drugs your liver metabolizes — peppermint may increase their levels. The concern is Moderate for most of these interactions.
Use the medication checker on this page with your current prescriptions.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Bo He Alcohol Free is a reasonable choice if you're dealing with IBS or indigestion and your doctor has cleared it for you. The main caution is that peppermint affects how your liver processes many medications — especially blood pressure drugs, blood thinners, and immunosuppressants.
Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting, particularly if you take any regular prescriptions.

Bo He Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Bo He Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra contains peppermint extract, which interacts with a number of medications through effects on liver enzymes.
The most serious documented interaction is with cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune), an immunosuppressant used after organ transplants — peppermint may increase its levels and side effects, a Moderate concern.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Peppermint also theoretically affects three major enzyme systems your liver uses to break down drugs. It may increase levels of CYP3A4 substrates (Moderate), CYP2C19 substrates (Moderate), and CYP2C9 substrates (Moderate) — this includes many blood pressure medications, statins, anticoagulants, and others.
Clinical evidence shows peppermint oil does inhibit CYP3A4 in humans, though the interaction hasn't been formally reported. For the other two systems, the evidence comes from lab studies so far.
Peppermint may also theoretically affect CYP1A2 substrates (Minor), though a small clinical study of peppermint tea and caffeine found no significant interaction.
Altogether, these interactions span 786 individual medications. Check your exact medications with the search tool on this page before starting.

For each ingredient in Bo He Alcohol Free with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Bo He herb Extract, Dry
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)
Theoretically, peppermint oil might increase the levels and adverse effects of cyclosporine.
In animal research, peppermint oil inhibits cyclosporine metabolism and increases cyclosporine levels. Inhibition of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) may be partially responsible for this interaction. An interaction between peppermint oil and cyclosporine has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro research shows that peppermint oil inhibits CYP2C19. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that peppermint oil inhibits CYP2C9. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that a single dose of peppermint oil 600 mg inhibits CYP3A4 enzymes and increases the AUC of felodipine, a CYP3A4 substrate. However, in vitro research suggests that peppermint oil only inhibits CYP3A4 at very high concentrations.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro and animal research shows that peppermint oil and peppermint leaf inhibit CYP1A2. However, in clinical research, peppermint tea did not significantly affect the metabolism of caffeine, a CYP1A2 substrate. It is possible that the 6-day duration of treatment may have been too short to identify a difference.
