HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Damiana Extract by Oregon's Wild Harvest

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

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: damiana, a liquid extract. The inactive ingredients are alcohol and distilled water.

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 Damiana product and its label doesn't state a use — see Damiana'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.

The evidence on damiana isn't established in the data we hold. Studies to date show insufficient reliable evidence for sexual dysfunction, asthma, headache, cognitive function, constipation, and depression—which means we don't have solid proof it works for any of these uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Damiana

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.

Damiana is likely fine in food or tea amounts for most adults, but human safety data are limited. The safety data advise against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Very high doses (200 grams of extract) have caused serious symptoms like convulsions in rare cases, but that's far beyond typical use.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Damiana

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Damiana.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 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 antidiabetes medications (insulin and oral diabetes drugs) with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product—damiana may lower blood sugar further and raise the risk of low blood sugar.

Damiana Extract by Oregon's Wild Harvest: Common Questions

Does Damiana Extract by Oregon's Wild Harvest interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Damiana Extract has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Damiana Extract 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 if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advise against it during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. There isn't enough information to know whether it's safe in these situations. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Does damiana actually work for sexual dysfunction or other conditions?
The evidence isn't established in the data we hold. Studies so far show insufficient reliable evidence for sexual dysfunction, asthma, headache, cognitive function, constipation, and depression—so we don't have solid proof it works for any of these uses yet.
What are the side effects?
Human safety data are limited, so we don't know all the side effects from normal use. Very high doses (200 grams of extract) have caused serious convulsions and seizure-like symptoms in rare cases, but that's far beyond what people typically take.
Is this safe for most adults?
Damiana is likely fine in food or tea amounts for most adults, but human safety data are limited. If you have any health conditions or take medications, it's worth checking with your doctor or pharmacist first.
