HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Elderberry Mint Flavor by TerraVita

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 23, 2026

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: elderberry glycerite liquid extract. Glycerite means the elderberry is extracted and mixed with glycerin (a natural sweetener and preservative).

Mint flavor is added for taste. The formula is a liquid, so it's easy to measure and take by mouth.

Does it work?

Insufficient evidence
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
Insufficient

There isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to rate this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: immune and respiratory health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Lower respiratory tract infections, Respiratory tract infections, Rhinosinusitis, Cold, Flu — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Elderberry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Respiratory tract infections (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Elderberry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Rhinosinusitis, Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Lower respiratory tract infections.

The evidence on elderberry for what it's commonly used for — hay fever, heart health, chronic fatigue, lung function, thinking and memory, and upper respiratory infections — is not strong enough to rate. We don't have reliable data showing it works for any of these in our sources, so the claim that it helps is unproven.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Elderberry

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.

Properly cooked elderberry products like this one are generally well tolerated. The main risk comes from raw or unripe berries, leaves, bark, and seeds, which contain toxins that cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, and dizziness — but cooking eliminates this problem.

One case report linked elderberry taken long-term to autoimmune hepatitis (liver inflammation) in a patient with existing autoimmune disease; symptoms resolved after stopping it. There isn't enough reliable safety data for elderberry in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, so it's best to avoid it during these times.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing and want to know whether this product is right for you.

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 — Elderberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: immunosuppressants / transplant drugs.
  • For scale: 121 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 product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on immunosuppressants (medications that lower your immune system, often used after transplants or for autoimmune diseases) or pazopanib (Votrient), a cancer medication. Both carry Moderate-severity interaction risks with elderberry.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with insufficient evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

TerraVita Elderberry Mint Flavor is a cooked elderberry extract that's generally well tolerated, but it interacts with immunosuppressants and the cancer drug pazopanib — two areas you need to check carefully. If you take either of those drug types or have an autoimmune condition, run this by your doctor or pharmacist first.

The evidence that it works for colds, allergies, or other common uses isn't established.

Elderberry Glycerite Liquid Extract2 drug types · 121 drugs

Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, elderberry might interfere with immunosuppressant therapy due to its immunostimulant activity.
Elderberry has immunostimulant activity, increasing the production of cytokines, including interleukin and tumor necrosis factor.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Pazopanib (Votrient)

Theoretically, elderberry might interact with pazopanib, potentially increasing the risk of adverse effects.
In one case, a 65-year-old patient taking pazopanib for 4 weeks for soft-tissue sarcoma developed severe nausea, loose stools, and elevated alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase levels and was diagnosed with grade 3 liver injury. The patient reported taking elderberry supplements for 2 years, dose unspecified, and was also taking a multivitamin and a calcium supplement. The patient's symptoms and liver enzyme levels improved upon discontinuation of pazopanib and all supplements. Pazopanib treatment was re-initiated, at a lower dose, with no further evidence of liver injury. It was unclear in this case report if the elderberry supplements were derived from the berry, the flower, or the combination.

Elderberry Mint Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Elderberry Mint Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Elderberry Mint Flavor has a known interaction with 121 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Elderberry Mint Flavor 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.
Is elderberry safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough reliable safety information for elderberry in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, so it's best to avoid it during these times. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for your situation.
What are the side effects of this elderberry liquid?
When prepared from ripe, cooked elderberry like this one, it's generally well tolerated and side effects are rare. Raw or unripe berries can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, and dizziness — but cooking eliminates that risk. One case reported nausea and vomiting with an elderberry-echinacea combo product, though it's unclear which ingredient was responsible.
Does elderberry actually work for colds and flu?
The evidence we have isn't strong enough to say. Elderberry is marketed for respiratory infections, but we don't have reliable data showing it works for colds, flu, or upper respiratory infections.
Why can't I take this if I'm on immunosuppressants?
Elderberry has immunostimulant activity — it boosts your immune system by increasing cytokines (immune signaling molecules). If you're on an immunosuppressant to lower your immune response (like after a transplant or for certain autoimmune conditions), elderberry could work against that therapy.
What is elderberry glycerite?
It's an extract of elderberry suspended in glycerin, a natural sweetener and preservative. Using glycerin as the base means the berries are extracted and preserved without alcohol, making it gentler on the stomach.
Is this product safe if I have an autoimmune disease?
One case report linked long-term elderberry use to liver inflammation (autoimmune hepatitis) in a patient who already had an autoimmune disease. If you have an autoimmune condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product.
