HelloPharmacist Scorecard of French Lavender by Revive

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 11, 2026

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: lavender. It's a liquid form, so you're getting the plant's oils and compounds in an easy-to-use preparation.

There are no other inactive ingredients listed.

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: Aromatic, topical, or dietary essential oil.
  • We looked for evidence on: Insomnia, Stress, Perioperative anxiety, Pre-procedural anxiety, Psychological well-being, Atopic dermatitis (eczema) — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lavender is rated "Possibly Effective" for Dysmenorrhea (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lavender is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Pre-procedural anxiety, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Insomnia, Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and more.

The evidence for lavender varies by use. It's possibly effective for period pain (dysmenorrhea).

For cancer-related pain, the data suggests it's possibly ineffective. For hair loss (alopecia areata), pre-procedural anxiety, and cancer-related fatigue, there isn't enough reliable evidence yet to say whether it works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lavender

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 1 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.

Lavender is generally well tolerated when you take it by mouth or apply it to skin in approved forms. The most common side effects from oral use are breath odor, constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, burping, headache, and nausea.

Topical lavender oil can rarely cause allergic skin reactions. One rare serious effect reported in young boys using lavender oil is breast tissue enlargement (gynecomastia).

There isn't enough safety data on medicinal amounts of lavender, so avoid larger doses unless your doctor approves. Essential oil is toxic if swallowed.

The product facts don't include pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant or nursing.

The bottom line

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

Revive French Lavender may be worth considering if you're dealing with period pain or need a gentle calming option. If you take any medication for sleep, anxiety, or brain function, check with us first — the interaction with CNS depressants is real and worth a conversation.

Cns Depressants

Theoretically, lavender might potentiate the therapeutic effects and adverse effects of CNS depressants.
Laboratory research suggests that lavender has sedative effects. However, clinical studies in patients taking oral lavender oil (Silexan) 160 mg for 10 weeks or taking lavender flower powder 1 gram daily for 2 months have not reported side effects of drowsiness, sedation, or sleepiness. There is still some concern that higher doses or different preparations of lavender might have additive effects with CNS depressant medications.

French Lavender by Revive: Common Questions

Does French Lavender by Revive interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, French Lavender has a known interaction with 248 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
French Lavender 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.
What's the most common side effect I might notice?
Breath odor, constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, burping, headache, and nausea are the most common ones people report from taking lavender by mouth. Most people tolerate it well, but these mild effects do happen.
Can I use this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The product facts don't include safety data for pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they can give you personalized advice based on your situation.
Does lavender actually work for anxiety?
The evidence isn't solid yet. For pre-procedural anxiety specifically, there isn't enough reliable data to say whether it works. Your doctor or pharmacist can discuss what the research shows and whether it's worth trying for you.
Is the essential oil in this product safe to swallow?
No — essential oil is toxic if swallowed. Make sure you're using this liquid supplement exactly as directed on the label, and keep it away from kids.
Can this cause allergic reactions?
Yes, though it's not common. If you apply lavender oil to your skin, allergic contact dermatitis (an itchy, irritated rash) can happen. Stop use and talk to us if you develop a rash.
Is this safe for kids?
The product facts don't include safety data for children. One rare serious effect reported is breast tissue enlargement in young boys using lavender oil. Talk with your pediatrician or pharmacist before giving this to a child.
