HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Dipsacus Spp. Teasel by Wise Woman Herbals

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

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 1 active ingredient.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains one active ingredient: teasel. It's a liquid extract made with spring water, alcohol, and vegetable glycerin.

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

We don't hold effectiveness data for teasel in our records, so we can't tell you what the evidence shows about whether it works for any particular condition.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Teazle

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Human safety data for teasel are very limited, so we don't have a clear picture of its safety profile yet. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, since there isn't enough information to know whether it's safe in those situations.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Teazle

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 — Teazle.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 219 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.

Before you take this, check whether you use anticholinergic drugs (medications that block acetylcholine activity, often prescribed for overactive bladder or as anti-nausea or anti-motion-sickness aids) or cholinergic drugs (which boost acetylcholine, sometimes used for myasthenia gravis or Alzheimer's disease). Altogether, these interactions span 218 individual medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.

Because teasel is not well studied in humans and it interacts with two common drug categories, it's best to talk with your pharmacist or doctor before you start — especially if you take anticholinergic or cholinergic medications. Pregnancy and breastfeeding aren't advised given the current safety information.
