False unicorn is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy due to its traditional use to affect the uterus and lack of human safety data. It is also best avoided while breastfeeding because there isn't enough safety information.

Yes. Based on its ingredients, False Unicorn Non-Alcohol 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 Non-Alcohol 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 this product safe to take while pregnant?
No. False unicorn is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy because it has traditionally been used to affect the uterus, and there isn't adequate safety data in humans. Avoid it if you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant.

What side effects does false unicorn cause?
At normal doses, false unicorn is generally well tolerated. Large doses have been reported to cause nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset.
Why does this product interact with so many drugs?
False unicorn inhibits two liver enzymes (CYP2D6 and CYP3A4) that your body uses to break down hundreds of different medications. When those enzymes are slowed, drug levels can rise. It may also have diuretic properties that could affect lithium levels.
