HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Damiana Extract by BulkSupplements.com

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 leaf extract. We don't have any inactive ingredients listed for this powder form, so you're getting the extract on its own.

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 for damiana is not established in our data. It's been studied for sexual dysfunction, asthma, headache, cognitive function, constipation, and depression, but all those uses have insufficient reliable evidence to rate.

That means the data we hold doesn't support a firm claim that it works for any of them — not that it definitely doesn't work, just that we don't have solid proof either way.

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. At very high doses — 200 grams of extract — it's been reported to cause tetanus-like muscle convulsions and symptoms resembling rabies or strychnine poisoning, though this is rare.

During pregnancy and while breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety data; the facts advise against use in both situations.

Why this rating?

  • 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.

The bottom line

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

Damiana extract is not well studied in humans, and evidence for its benefits isn't established yet. If you take diabetes medication, you'll need to check with your pharmacist first because of the low-blood-sugar risk.

Pregnant or breastfeeding? Skip it until you've talked with your doctor.

Damiana Extract by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Damiana Extract by BulkSupplements.com 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.
Does damiana work for sexual dysfunction?
The evidence isn't there yet. Studies have been done, but the data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to say whether it works. If you're curious, talk to your doctor about what the latest research shows.
Is it safe during pregnancy?
No. There isn't enough safety data for pregnancy, so the guidance is to avoid it. Talk with your doctor if you're pregnant or planning to be.
Can I use it while breastfeeding?
Not based on the safety data available. There's not enough information to know it's safe while nursing, so you should skip it and discuss other options with your doctor or pharmacist.
What dose was shown to cause those convulsions?
That was at 200 grams of damiana extract — a very high amount. At typical supplement doses, that risk would be much lower, but human safety data overall are still limited.
Does damiana help with depression or headaches?
The evidence isn't established for either. Both have been studied, but our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate them. You'd want to talk with your doctor about proven treatments.
