HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Children's Ultra Clear Propolis Liquid by CATALO
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
This product contains one active ingredient: propolis extract, derived naturally. Propolis is a resinous substance collected by honeybees.
The inactive ingredients — glycerol, purified water, anethole, and peppermint oil — are excipients that carry and flavor the liquid.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
In the data we hold, propolis is rated possibly effective for oral mucositis (mouth sores from cancer treatment or other causes) and herpes labialis (cold sores). For diabetes, the evidence supports a possibly effective rating as well.
The evidence for dengue fever is insufficient to rate it. If you're considering this product for your child, talk with your pediatrician about whether propolis is appropriate for their specific condition.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Propolis is generally well tolerated short term, though allergic reactions are possible — especially in children sensitive to bee products. The most common side effect reported orally is headache; in one trial, around 7% of people taking propolis reported mild headache.
Topically (if applied to skin), it can cause contact dermatitis or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Children with a bee allergy should avoid propolis products entirely.
There isn't enough reliable safety information to recommend propolis during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so it should be avoided in those situations. If your child has any history of bee allergies or severe allergic reactions, talk with your pediatrician before starting.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check with your pharmacist before giving this to your child if they take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (Moderate severity) — propolis may increase bleeding risk. Also ask about warfarin specifically (Moderate severity), as propolis may reduce how well it works.
Additionally, propolis may affect blood levels of many other medications processed by the liver, so run any prescription drug through the checker on this page.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is a single-ingredient liquid propolis extract. It's possibly effective for mouth sores and cold sores, and it's generally well tolerated — but allergic reactions and headache do occur.
Before giving it to your child alongside any prescription medication, especially blood thinners or heart drugs, check with your pharmacist. If your child is allergic to bees or bee products, skip this one.

Children's Ultra Clear Propolis Liquid by CATALO Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Children's Ultra Clear Propolis Liquid by CATALO contains propolis extract, which can interact with a number of medications.
The most serious documented concern is with blood thinners (anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs) — propolis may increase your child's bleeding risk if combined with these medications.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Propolis may also affect how your child's liver breaks down many other drugs. It can theoretically increase blood levels of medications processed through several liver pathways (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4 substrates).
In lab studies, propolis showed some inhibitory activity, but animal research at high doses didn't replicate this effect — so the real-world impact in children remains unclear. Additionally, propolis may reduce the effectiveness of warfarin (a blood thinner).
Altogether, these interactions span 911 individual medications. Before giving this product to your child alongside any prescription medication, check the exact drugs with the search tool on this page or ask your pharmacist.

For each ingredient in Children's Ultra Clear Propolis Liquid 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.
Propolis Extract, Natural
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, propolis might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro research shows that propolis water extract and the propolis constituent, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, can inhibit platelet aggregation. Additionally, evidence from an animal model shows that taking propolis in addition to warfarin decreases INR, suggesting that propolis can decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP1A2. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP1A2 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP1A2 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2C19. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2C19 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2C19 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2C9. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2C9 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2C9 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2D6. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2D6 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2D6 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates
Theoretically, propolis might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
In vitro research shows that propolis can inhibit CYP2E1. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Some in vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP3A4; however, other in vitro research shows that propolis has no effect on CYP3A4 activity. Furthermore, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP3A4 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that might in inhibit CYP3A4 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, propolis might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
Animal research shows that taking propolis in addition to warfarin decreases the international normalized ratio (INR). This effect has not been reported in humans.
