HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Extra Strength Damiana Leaf 4:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection

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 in a 4:1 concentrated powder form. Damiana is a plant traditionally used in herbal medicine, though what it actually does in the body isn't firmly established by research.

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 isn't solid yet. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for sexual dysfunction, asthma, headache, cognitive function, constipation, or depression.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the studies so far haven't been strong enough to say 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. Very high doses — 200 grams of extract — have caused severe reactions including tetanus-like convulsions and symptoms resembling poisoning, so stay within the recommended dose.

The safety data don't support use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding; talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

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 before taking this product — damiana may lower blood sugar and raise the risk of going too low. If you're on any diabetes drug, talk with your doctor or pharmacist.

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.

TerraVita's damiana extract is a single-ingredient product with limited evidence for the conditions it's marketed for and limited human safety data overall. If you take diabetes medication, this one needs a conversation with your doctor or pharmacist first.

For anyone else, weigh the unproven benefits against the caution flags and discuss it with your own healthcare provider before starting.

Extra Strength Damiana Leaf 4:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Extra Strength Damiana Leaf 4:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Extra Strength Damiana Leaf 4:1 Extract Powder 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?
Extra Strength Damiana Leaf 4:1 Extract Powder 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 actually work for sexual dysfunction?
The research isn't strong enough to say yes or no right now. We hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate it, which means studies so far haven't been solid enough to prove it works for this use.
Is this safe to take every day?
Human safety data are limited, so we can't say for certain. It's likely fine in food or tea amounts, but we don't have enough long-term studies to call it completely safe at extract doses. Check with your own doctor or pharmacist about daily use.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — there isn't enough safety data. The facts advise against it during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing; they can help you decide what's right for your situation.
What happens if I take too much?
Very high doses — 200 grams of damiana extract — have caused severe reactions including tetanus-like convulsions and symptoms resembling poisoning. Stay within the recommended dose on the label and don't exceed it.
Does this powder have any fillers or other ingredients?
No — this product is the extract powder alone, with no inactive ingredients listed.
