HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Goat's Rue 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

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.

TerraVita's Goat's Rue contains one active ingredient: a glycerite liquid extract of goat's rue — a plant traditionally used to support milk supply in breastfeeding. It's dissolved in glycerin, an inactive ingredient that helps preserve and deliver the extract.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Goat's Rue's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support breast milk supply.
  • We looked for evidence on: Lactation.
  • The closest evidence on file: Goat's Rue is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Lactation (Natural Medicines).

The evidence on goat's rue for lactation has not been reliably established in the data we hold. It is traditionally used to support milk supply, but the strength of that evidence and how well it works remain insufficient to rate.

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.

Well-controlled human safety data on goat's rue supplements are limited. The fresh plant itself can be toxic, so quality and purity of supplements matter.

The safety data advises against use during pregnancy. While goat's rue is traditionally used to support milk supply in breastfeeding, this should only be done with professional guidance, since safety and quality can vary.

If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering this for lactation support, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

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 — Goat's Rue.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 122 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, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on any blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs — including aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), heparin, enoxaparin (Lovenox), dalteparin (Fragmin), and ticlopidine (Ticlid). Goat's rue may increase bleeding risk with these medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.

TerraVita's Goat's Rue is a single-ingredient traditional supplement with limited human safety data and one documented interaction class to watch. It's best considered only if you're not taking blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, and ideally with guidance from your doctor or pharmacist — especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or thinking about using it for milk supply.

Does Goat's Rue by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Goat's Rue has a known interaction with 122 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Goat's Rue 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.
Is goat's rue safe to take while pregnant?
No, the safety data advises against it during pregnancy. If you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.
Can I use this to boost my milk supply while breastfeeding?
Goat's rue is traditionally used for that purpose, but quality and safety can vary. It should only be used with professional guidance — talk with your doctor, lactation consultant, or pharmacist before starting to make sure it's right for you.
What exactly is in this bottle?
It's a glycerite liquid extract of goat's rue — the active plant material — mixed with glycerin to preserve and deliver it. Glycerin is an inactive ingredient, not a medicinal component.
Does this product actually work for what it's supposed to do?
The evidence on goat's rue for lactation support has not been reliably established in the data we hold. It's used traditionally, but we don't have strong scientific backing to rate how well it works.
Are there any reported side effects from taking goat's rue?
We have no reported adverse effects on file for this ingredient. However, the fresh plant can be toxic, and human safety data on supplements are limited, so quality matters.
Will this interact with my blood thinner?
Possibly, yes. Laboratory research suggests goat's rue can interfere with how platelets clump, raising bleeding risk if you're on aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), heparin, or similar drugs. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it.
