HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Egyptian Lily Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra

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: Egyptian Lily Root Extract (also known as lotus root). The liquid also includes two inactive ingredients—glycerin and water—which help deliver the extract.

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 Lotus product and its label doesn't state a use — see Lotus'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 we hold on lotus root for its common uses—nausea, sore throat, sleep, weight, heavy menstrual bleeding, and bleeding disorders—is insufficient to rate. That means the data available doesn't establish whether it works for any of these purposes.

If you're considering it for a specific reason, talk with your pharmacist about what the science actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lotus

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.

Lotus root is eaten as food in many cultures, but its safety as a concentrated supplement in humans hasn't been well studied. Our data advises against using medicinal amounts of concentrated lotus supplements.

Allergic reactions are possible; case reports include hives and contact dermatitis after eating or touching the root. There isn't enough safety data to know whether it's safe while breastfeeding, so avoid it during that time.

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.

If you take blood thinners, diabetes drugs, or sedative barbiturates, you'll want to check with us before using this product. Even though lotus is a common food, we don't have solid safety data for concentrated supplements.

Talk with your pharmacist about whether it's right for you and whether it fits with your medications.

Egyptian Lily Root Extract, Dry3 drug types · 212 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use of lotus with other antiplatelet drugs might reduce platelet aggregation and increase the risk of bleeding.
Neferine and isoliensinine, constituents of lotus, have been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation, in vitro. These constituents can inhibit the production of pro-aggregating factors like prostaglandins.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, lotus might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research shows that the ethanolic extract of lotus reduces blood glucose levels and potentiates the effects of injected insulin. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, taking lotus concomitantly with pentobarbital might increase sedation.
Animal research shows that lotus extract increases pentobarbitone-induced sleeping time. It is not known if this occurs in humans or if this effect occurs with other barbiturates or sedatives.

Egyptian Lily Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra: Common Questions

Does Egyptian Lily Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Egyptian Lily Alcohol Free has a known interaction with 212 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Egyptian Lily Alcohol Free 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?
Our facts don't include pregnancy safety data for lotus root. There isn't enough information to say it's safe or unsafe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it during pregnancy — they can weigh the risks and benefits for your situation.
What's in this product besides the lotus extract?
Just glycerin and water. Those are inactive ingredients that help deliver the extract in liquid form — they're not the active part.
Can lotus root cause allergic reactions?
Yes. Case reports show it can trigger hives and contact dermatitis, especially after eating or touching the root. If you have a history of allergies, be cautious.
Does this product actually work for nausea or sleep?
The evidence we hold isn't strong enough to say. All the main uses — nausea, sore throat, sleep, weight, heavy periods, and bleeding — are rated insufficient evidence in our data. You'd want to discuss realistic expectations with your pharmacist.
Why does the label say to avoid this during breastfeeding?
There simply isn't enough safety data on concentrated lotus supplements in nursing mothers. Out of caution, the safety notes recommend avoiding it — talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're considering it while breastfeeding.
