Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

  • 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 1 active ingredient: False Unicorn Root Extract in dry form. It's sold as a liquid preparation that also includes alcohol, water, and glycerin as inactive ingredients.

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 False Unicorn product and its label doesn't state a use — see False Unicorn'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 product facts we hold do not include effectiveness ratings for False Unicorn Root Extract, so the evidence for what it may or may not do isn't established in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient False Unicorn

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.

False unicorn root is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth. However, safety data in humans is limited, and large doses have been reported to cause nausea and vomiting.

The safety data advises against use in pregnancy because of its traditional use to affect the uterus and lack of human safety information. There is not enough safety information to recommend it while breastfeeding either — talk with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized advice if either applies to you.

Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

In vitro, false unicorn extract inhibits cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) activity. Theoretically, false unicorn might increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates. Some of drugs that are CYP2D6 substrates include amitriptyline (Elavil), clozapine (Clozaril), codeine, desipramine (Norpramin), donepezil (Aricept), fentanyl (Duragesic), flecainide (Tambocor), fluoxetine (Prozac), meperidine (Demerol), methadone (Dolophine), metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol XL), olanzapine (Zyprexa), ondansetron (Zofran), tramadol (Ultram), trazodone (Desyrel), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

In vitro, false unicorn extract inhibits cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) activity. Theoretically, false unicorn might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates. Drugs that might be affected include some calcium channel blockers (diltiazem, nicardipine, verapamil), chemotherapeutic agents (etoposide, paclitaxel, vinblastine, vincristine, vindesine), antifungals (ketoconazole, itraconazole), glucocorticoids, cisapride (Propulsid), alfentanil (Alfenta), fentanyl (Sublimaze), losartan (Cozaar), fluoxetine (Prozac), midazolam (Versed), omeprazole (Prilosec), ondansetron (Zofran), propranolol (Inderal), fexofenadine (Allegra), and numerous others.

False Unicorn by Herbal Terra: Common Questions

Does False Unicorn by Herbal Terra interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, False Unicorn has a known interaction with 740 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
False Unicorn 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 False Unicorn while I'm pregnant?
The safety data advises against it. False unicorn has a history of traditional use to affect the uterus and lacks human safety studies, so it's rated Likely Unsafe in pregnancy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before considering it.
Is it safe to breastfeed while using False Unicorn?
No — there isn't enough safety information available, so it's best avoided while breastfeeding. Your pharmacist or doctor can discuss safer alternatives if you need one.
What side effects should I expect?
False unicorn root is generally well tolerated at normal doses. Large doses have been reported to cause nausea and vomiting. Safety data in humans is limited overall.
Does this product have fillers or other inactive ingredients?
Yes — in addition to the active False Unicorn Root Extract, it contains alcohol, water, and glycerin as inactive ingredients.
Why does this product interact with so many medications?
False unicorn slows down two major liver enzymes (CYP2D6 and CYP3A4) that clear hundreds of different drugs from your body. When these enzymes work slower, drug levels can build up. That's why you need to check your specific medications before starting.
