HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Catnip & Fennel Combination Vanilla 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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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 2 active ingredients.
  • “Catnip & Fennel Combination Glycerite Liquid Extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (0.13 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This liquid combination contains two active herbal extracts: fennel and catnip, each extracted into a glycerite base (a vegetable-based liquid). The product also includes glycerin and vanilla flavor as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Dysmenorrhea — rated "Possibly Effective" (Fennel) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence we hold on these ingredients is limited. For fennel, dysmenorrhea (period pain) is listed as possibly effective; the other conditions fennel is used for—bronchitis, anxiety, bedwetting, and cholera—don't have enough reliable evidence to rate.

For catnip, we have no established effectiveness ratings in our data for any of the conditions listed—amenorrhea, anxiety, tension headache, upper respiratory infection, indigestion, or gas—so the evidence isn't established for those uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Catnip Fennel

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Fennel is generally well tolerated when used in food amounts, but concentrated supplements need more caution. The most common side effects from fennel are gastrointestinal discomfort, sun sensitivity, and allergic reactions in sensitive people.

Serious side effects are rare but can include seizures. Some people have had allergic reactions to fennel (sneezing, wheezing, difficulty breathing), and it's been linked to bronchial asthma in some cases.

Catnip is generally well tolerated in typical amounts, though human safety data are limited. Common side effects include headache, malaise (general discomfort), and vomiting.

Too much may cause stomachache and vomiting. The facts show no pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data on file for either ingredient, which means there isn't enough information to know whether either is safe during pregnancy or lactation—talk with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized advice.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Fennel, Catnip.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; lithium.
  • For scale: 895 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 your medications against this product if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (moderate risk of increased bleeding), hormonal birth control or hormone replacement therapy (moderate risk of reduced effectiveness), CYP3A4-metabolized drugs—a large group; ask your pharmacist (moderate risk of higher drug levels), lithium (moderate risk of increased levels), sedating CNS depressants like benzodiazepines or opioids (moderate risk of added drowsiness), ciprofloxacin (moderate risk of reduced antibiotic effect), or tamoxifen (moderate risk of reduced cancer-drug effect).

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is worth a second look if you take any blood thinners, hormonal contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy, lithium, sedating medications, or the antibiotic ciprofloxacin. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, check with your pharmacist first—the safety data are thin here.

Catnip & Fennel Combination Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Catnip & Fennel Combination Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Catnip & Fennel Combination Vanilla Flavor has a known interaction with 894 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Catnip & Fennel Combination Vanilla 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 while pregnant?
The safety data on file don't cover pregnancy for either ingredient. Fennel's safety notes specifically say to avoid medicinal or concentrated amounts during pregnancy because of limited safety data and possible hormone-like effects. We don't have enough information on catnip to say either way. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor—they can weigh your individual situation.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety data to know either way for both ingredients. Food amounts of fennel are likely fine, but medicinal doses and essential oil haven't been well studied. Catnip safety while breastfeeding isn't well established. Check with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized advice.
Does this actually work for anything?
Fennel may help with period pain, but that's the only condition with possibly effective evidence in our data. For anxiety, bronchitis, bedwetting, or other uses, there just isn't enough reliable evidence to say. Catnip has no established effectiveness ratings for any condition in the data we hold.
What are the side effects?
Fennel's most common side effects are stomach upset, sun sensitivity, and allergic reactions. Rare serious side effects include seizures. Some people have had asthma flare-ups. Catnip commonly causes headache, general discomfort, and vomiting, and large amounts may cause stomach upset.
Is this safe for kids?
There's a case report of a toddler who became very drowsy and had a stomachache after ingesting catnip tea and the tea bag. Human safety data for both ingredients in children are limited. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before giving it to a child.
