What’s inside

Partial disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Partial

Most active ingredients list an amount, but at least one is hidden in a blend or missing.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 6 of its 7 active ingredients.

Femohills Syrup contains 7 active ingredients. The main ones with established traditional and research backing are ginger (for nausea and period pain), Tinospora cordifolia or Guduchi (used in Ayurveda for immunity and blood sugar), Asparagus racemosus or Shatavari (a traditional women's tonic), and Triphala (a classic three-fruit blend from Ayurvedic practice).

The product also includes Ashoka and Lodhra, both used traditionally for women's health, plus a base. The inactive ingredients are sodium benzoate (preservative), sorbitol (sweetener), natural flavoring, and food coloring.

Does it work?

Moderate 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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: women's health and energy support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dysmenorrhea, Lactation, Menopausal symptoms, Menorrhagia, Postpartum complications, Pregnancy-induced nausea and vomiting — and 2 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Ginger is rated "Possibly Effective" for Pregnancy-induced nausea and vomiting (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Ginger is rated "Possibly Effective" for Dysmenorrhea.
  • Also on file: Ginger is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Menopausal symptoms, Postpartum complications, Menorrhagia.

Ginger in this syrup is possibly effective for pregnancy-related nausea, period pain (dysmenorrhea), and osteoarthritis. For nausea from chemotherapy or muscle soreness from exercise, the evidence rates it as possibly ineffective.

Tinospora cordifolia is possibly effective for type 2 diabetes, but evidence for hay fever, asthma, athletic performance, cancer, and hepatitis is insufficient to rate. Asparagus racemosus (Shatavari) lacks reliable evidence for the conditions on file — lactation support, tuberculosis, muscle strength, sexual desire, and bronchitis.

Without effectiveness data in our system for Triphala, Ashoka, Lodhra, or the base, we cannot describe what those components are meant to do.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Ginger Tinospora Cordifolia Asparagus Racemosus

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 2 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Ginger is generally well tolerated in food and supplement doses; the most common side effects are mild — abdominal discomfort, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, or a peppery sensation in the mouth and throat. Doses above 5 grams per day increase the risk of side effects.

Ginger is rated Likely Safe or Possibly Safe in pregnancy and Likely Safe while breastfeeding, though the safety notes advise checking with your doctor first and keeping amounts moderate. Tinospora cordifolia is generally well tolerated orally, with headache and nasal pain being the most commonly reported side effects; however, rare cases of liver injury have been documented, some severe, so it should be used carefully and under guidance.

Tinospora cordifolia is rated unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data. Asparagus racemosus is considered well tolerated in traditional use, but high-quality safety data are limited; it is best avoided in pregnancy unless a doctor advises otherwise, and any use while breastfeeding should be under professional guidance only.

We hold no adverse-effect data for Triphala, Ashoka, or Lodhra.

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Ginger, Tinospora Cordifolia, Asparagus Racemosus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,218 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 taking Femohills Syrup, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants) like warfarin or phenprocoumon, antidiabetes drugs, heart medications such as nifedipine or losartan, any medication metabolized by your liver (a very long list that includes many cancer drugs, statins, and others), diuretic drugs (water pills), or lithium. Ginger, Tinospora cordifolia, and Asparagus racemosus all carry documented Moderate interactions with these drug types.

The bottom line

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

Femohills Syrup may help with pregnancy nausea or period pain, but it carries Moderate-severity interactions with blood thinners, diabetes drugs, heart medications, and liver-metabolized drugs — a broad and important list. If you take any prescription medication, especially for bleeding prevention, blood sugar, heart conditions, or cancer, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this syrup.

The ingredient Tinospora cordifolia also carries a rare risk of liver injury and should be avoided in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Sunthee14 drug types · 1,007 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs. However, research is conflicting.
Laboratory research suggests that ginger inhibits thromboxane synthetase and decreases platelet aggregation. However, this has not been demonstrated unequivocally in humans, with mixed results from clinical trials. Theoretically, excessive amounts of ginger might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking ginger with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal and human research suggests that ginger might increase insulin levels and/or decrease blood glucose levels.

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

Ginger might increase or decrease the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research and some case reports suggest that ginger inhibits CYP3A4 activity. Three case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are CYP3A4 substrates (imatinib, dabrafenib, and crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration.
Conversely, other in vitro research suggests that ginger induces CYP3A4 activity, leading to reduced levels of CYP3A4 substrates. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Losartan (Cozaar)

Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of losartan and the risk of hypotension.
In animal research, ginger increased the levels and hypotensive effects of a single dose of losartan. It is not clear if ginger alters the concentration or effects of losartan when taken continuously. Additionally, this interaction has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nifedipine (Procardia)

Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and increase the risk of bleeding if used with nifedipine.
Clinical research shows that combined treatment with ginger 1 gram plus nifedipine 10 mg significantly inhibits platelet aggregation when compared to nifedipine or ginger alone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Ginger might increase the absorption and blood levels of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates.
In vitro research and case reports suggest that ginger inhibits drug efflux by P-gp, potentially increasing absorption and serum levels of P-gp substrates. Two case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are P-gp substrates (trametinib, crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenprocoumon (Marcoumar, Others)

Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with phenprocoumon.
Phenprocoumon, a warfarin-related anticoagulant, might increase the international normalized ratio (INR) when taken with ginger. There is one case report of a 76-year-old woman with a stable INR on phenprocoumon that increased to greater than 10 when she began consuming dried ginger and ginger tea.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Laboratory research suggests that ginger might inhibit thromboxane synthetase and decrease platelet aggregation. In one case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with phenprocoumon, which has similar pharmacological effects as warfarin. In another case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with a combination of warfarin, hydrochlorothiazide, and acetaminophen. A longitudinal analysis suggests that taking ginger increases the risk of bleeding in patients taking warfarin for at least 4 months. However, research in healthy people suggests that ginger has no effect on INR, or the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of warfarin. Until more is known, monitor INRs closely in patients taking large amounts of ginger.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Calcium Channel Blockers

Theoretically, taking ginger with calcium channel blockers might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some animal and in vitro research suggests that ginger has hypotensive and calcium channel-blocking effects. Another animal study shows that concomitant administration of ginger and the calcium channel blocker amlodipine leads to greater reductions in blood pressure when compared with amlodipine alone.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, when taken prior to cyclosporine, ginger might decrease cyclosporine levels.
In an animal model, ginger juice taken 2 hours prior to cyclosporine administration reduced the maximum concentration and area under the curve of cyclosporine by 51% and 40%, respectively. This effect was not observed when ginger juice and cyclosporine were administered at the same time.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP1A2 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2B6 (Cyp2B6) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2B6 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2B6 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2C9 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Metronidazole (Flagyl)

Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of metronidazole.
In an animal model, ginger increased the absorption and plasma half-life of metronidazole. In addition, the elimination rate and clearance of metronidazole was significantly reduced.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sunthee full monograph & interactions

Guduchi6 drug types · 612 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, Tinospora cordifolia might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Clinical research in adults with type 2 diabetes shows that Tinospora cordifolia can reduce fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin. Additionally, animal research shows that Tinospora cordifolia has hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence A
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, Tinospora cordifolia might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that Tinospora cordifolia extract inhibits CYP1A2 at high concentrations. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, Tinospora cordifolia might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that Tinospora cordifolia extract inhibits CYP2C19 at high concentrations. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, Tinospora cordifolia might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro research shows that Tinospora cordifolia extract inhibits CYP2C9. Animal research shows that Tinospora cordifolia extract 400 mg/kg twice daily for 14 days reduces the clearance and increases plasma levels of glyburide, a CYP2C9 substrate. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, Tinospora cordifolia might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research shows that Tinospora cordifolia extract inhibits CYP2D6 at high concentrations. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, Tinospora cordifolia might reduce the effectiveness of immunosuppressants.
In vitro and animal research shows that Tinospora cordifolia has immunostimulant effects.

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, asparagus racemosus root might increase diuresis and electrolyte loss when used with diuretic drugs.
Animal studies show that asparagus racemosus root has diuretic effects when used in high doses. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, Asparagus racemosus root could reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that Asparagus racemosus root has diuretic properties when used in high doses. Therefore, it might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Femohills Syrup by Herbal Shots: Common Questions

Does Femohills Syrup by Herbal Shots interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Femohills Syrup has a known interaction with 1,217 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Femohills Syrup contains 7 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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?
Ginger is rated Likely or Possibly Safe in pregnancy and is often used for morning sickness, but check with your doctor first and keep amounts moderate. However, Tinospora cordifolia (Guduchi) is rated unsafe in pregnancy, and Asparagus racemosus (Shatavari) safety is not well established — so this syrup as a whole may not be appropriate. Talk with your doctor before using it.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Ginger is rated Likely Safe while breastfeeding. Tinospora cordifolia should be avoided due to insufficient safety data, and Asparagus racemosus should be used only under professional guidance. Since the product contains all three, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.
Will this help my period pain?
Ginger, one of the main ingredients, is rated possibly effective for dysmenorrhea (period pain). However, we don't have strong evidence for the other ingredients' effects on period pain, so results may vary.
What are the most common side effects?
From ginger, you might experience mild abdominal discomfort, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, or a peppery sensation in your mouth and throat — especially at higher doses. Tinospora cordifolia may cause headache or nasal pain. Most people tolerate these ingredients well at typical doses.
Is there a risk of liver problems with this syrup?
Tinospora cordifolia (Guduchi), one of the ingredients, has been linked to rare cases of liver injury, including severe cases that required transplant or resulted in death. Use this syrup carefully and under professional guidance, especially if you have a history of liver disease.
Why can't you check interactions for all the ingredients?
We hold no interaction data for Triphala, Base, and Lodhra — three of the seven ingredients in this syrup. That means we cannot tell you whether they interact with your medications. Always run the complete product through the checker below with your doctor or pharmacist.
