HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Figwort 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection

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

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • 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 one active ingredient: figwort, 450 mg per capsule. Figwort is a plant traditionally used in herbal medicine, though the specifics of what it does in the body aren't well established in modern research.

The capsule also holds two inactive ingredients — gelatin and water — which help deliver the figwort but have no therapeutic role themselves.

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 Figwort product and its label doesn't state a use — see Figwort'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.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for figwort. The evidence for what this supplement actually does isn't established in our monograph, so we can't tell you whether it works or how well.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Figwort

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Here's what we know and don't know: figwort has limited safety data, so the advice is to use it cautiously and for the short term only. There aren't enough reliable safety studies during pregnancy, so the data advises against it while pregnant.

Similarly, there's no solid safety information for breastfeeding — the safest approach is to avoid it while nursing. We don't have a list of common side effects from trials, so we can't say what to watch for beyond the diuretic interactions already covered.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Figwort

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Figwort.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 76 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.

If you take lithium for a mood disorder, figwort could raise your lithium levels and requires dose adjustment — check with your doctor or pharmacist first. If you're on a potassium-depleting diuretic (water pill), figwort may worsen potassium loss and you might need supplementation or monitoring.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.

Figwort is a single-ingredient supplement with limited safety research and no established effectiveness data in our records. If you take lithium or a water pill, you'll want to talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it — the interactions could be significant.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding are reasons to skip it based on the safety data we have.

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, overuse of figwort might compound diuretic-induced potassium loss. There is some concern that people taking figwort along with potassium depleting diuretics might have an increased risk for hypokalemia. Initiation of potassium supplementation or an increase in potassium supplement dose may be necessary for some patients. Some diuretics that can deplete potassium include chlorothiazide (Diuril), chlorthalidone (Thalitone), furosemide (Lasix), hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, Hydrodiuril, Microzide), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Figwort is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, figwort might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.
