HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Feverfew 455 mg by Solaray
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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: feverfew, 455 mg per capsule. Feverfew is a plant traditionally used to support various conditions.
The capsule itself is made from cellulose, an inert filler.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that feverfew works reliably for tension headaches, prurigo nodularis (a chronic skin condition), psoriasis, or rheumatoid arthritis — the data rates all of these as insufficient reliable evidence to rate. That doesn't mean it doesn't work; it means the quality or quantity of research hasn't been strong enough to draw firm conclusions yet.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Feverfew is generally well tolerated short-term for most people, though it can cause allergic reactions and mouth irritation in some. The most common side effects when taken by mouth are gastrointestinal: abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, heartburn, and nausea.
A skin rash may appear in sensitive individuals. Chewing fresh leaves is more likely to cause mouth ulceration and numbness than capsules.
One important note: if you've taken feverfew long-term and then stop, you may experience "post-feverfew syndrome" — anxiety, headaches, and insomnia — so taper off gradually rather than quitting cold. Avoid feverfew during pregnancy, as it may stimulate the uterus and its safety isn't established.
There isn't enough reliable safety information to recommend it while breastfeeding either, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Most important: blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin or aspirin) — feverfew may increase bleeding risk. Also check any medication your liver breaks down, especially those using the CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP1A2, or CYP2C8 enzyme pathways — feverfew may theoretically raise their levels, though this hasn't been confirmed in humans yet.
Run your complete medication list through the checker on this page.
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.
Feverfew may be worth considering if you're looking for a traditional option for tension headaches or inflammatory conditions, but the evidence for it is limited. The main caution is with blood thinners and a large number of medications processed through your liver — check your exact drugs before starting.
If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking anticoagulants, talk to your pharmacist first.

Feverfew 455 mg by Solaray Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Solaray Feverfew 455 mg contains one active ingredient, feverfew, which interacts with a substantial number of medications through several liver enzyme systems.
The most serious documented concern is with blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (Moderate severity) — feverfew may increase bleeding risk. Laboratory work suggests it can inhibit platelet clumping, and one case report described vaginal bleeding in a patient taking high-dose feverfew alongside anticoagulant therapy.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Feverfew also theoretically affects six major cytochrome P450 enzyme systems (CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP1A2, and CYP2C8) — all rated Moderate severity. The concern is the same across all six: feverfew may slow how your liver breaks down drugs processed through these pathways, potentially raising their levels in your blood.
Lab studies support this mechanism, but actual human interactions haven't yet been reported for any of these six categories.
Altogether, these interactions span 917 individual medications. Because the enzyme effects are theoretical rather than documented in people, the real-world risk is uncertain — but the sheer number of drugs affected warrants checking before you start.

Feverfew
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, feverfew might have additive effects and increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that feverfew may inhibit platelet aggregation. Additionally, in one case report, a 36-year-old patient taking feverfew 2400 mg daily for 3 months experienced vaginal bleeding and a prolonged menstrual cycle, with a modest increase in partial thromboplastin time (PTT) and prothrombin time (PT).
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, feverfew might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Laboratory research shows that feverfew might inhibit CYP1A2. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
