HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Fennel & Wild Yam Combination 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 30, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Fennel & Wild Yam Combination Glycerite Liquid Extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (0.13 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains two active ingredients in liquid extract form: fennel glycerite and wild yam glycerite. Both are delivered in a mint-flavored base made with glycerin, an ingredient used to preserve and sweeten the liquid.

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Dysmenorrhea — rated "Possibly Effective" (Fennel) (Natural Medicines).

The data shows fennel is possibly effective for period pain (dysmenorrhea). For everything else in this product—fennel's use for bronchitis, anxiety, bedwetting, or cholera, and wild yam for menopausal symptoms, gallbladder issues, sexual function, or fertility—the evidence either isn't there or isn't reliable enough to rate.

Wild yam appears possibly ineffective for hot flashes and night sweats.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Fennel Wild Yam

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

Both fennel and wild yam are generally well tolerated when taken by mouth. Fennel's most common side effects are stomach upset, sun sensitivity, and allergic reactions in sensitive people; rarely, it may cause seizures.

Wild yam's common side effects are fever, headache, upset stomach, and vomiting, with rare risk of a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis). Fennel should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding because of limited safety data and its hormone-like effects.

Wild yam also lacks enough safety data—avoid it during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Long-term safety of wild yam in healthy adults hasn't been well studied.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Fennel, Wild Yam.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 741 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 this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, birth control pills, estrogen or hormone replacement therapy, drugs your liver breaks down via the CYP3A4 pathway, ciprofloxacin (Cipro), or tamoxifen (Nolvadex). All of these have documented moderate interactions with fennel, wild yam, or both.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're on birth control, hormone replacement, blood thinners, or take ciprofloxacin or tamoxifen, you'll want to check this product with your doctor or pharmacist before starting. Fennel is possibly effective for period pain; the evidence for wild yam's traditional uses is lacking.

Both ingredients are generally tolerated but have documented risks in pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Fennel & Wild Yam Combination Glycerite Liquid Extract6 drug types · 740 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, fennel might increase the risk of bleeding when used with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.

Animal research suggests that fennel oil has antithrombotic and antiplatelet effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Ciprofloxacin (Cipro)

Theoretically, fennel might decrease the levels and clinical effects of ciprofloxacin.

Animal research shows that fennel reduces ciprofloxacin bioavailability by nearly 50%, possibly due to the metal cations such as calcium, iron, and magnesium contained in fennel. This study also found that fennel increased tissue distribution and slowed elimination of ciprofloxacin.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Contraceptive Drugs

Theoretically, taking large amounts of fennel might decrease the effects of contraceptive drugs due to competition for estrogen receptors.

Some constituents of fennel have estrogenic activity.

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

Theoretically, fennel might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.

In vitro research suggests that fennel inhibits CYP3A4 enzyme activity. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Estrogens

Theoretically, taking large amounts of fennel might interfere with hormone replacement therapy due to competition for estrogen receptors.

Some constituents of fennel have estrogenic activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tamoxifen (Nolvadex)

Theoretically, taking large amounts of fennel might decrease the antiestrogenic effect of tamoxifen.

Some constituents of fennel have estrogenic activity, which may interfere with the antiestrogenic activity of tamoxifen.
