HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Green Bee Propolis by NaturaNectar

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 Aug 6, 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 1 of its 4 active ingredients.
  • “Brazilian Green Propolis Water Extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (3 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This capsule contains four active ingredients. Brazilian Green Propolis and its water extract are the main players — a bee-derived substance rich in bioactive compounds.

CAPE (caffeic acid phenethyl ester) is another active component, and ferulic acid rounds out the formula. These work together in the propolis blend.

The capsule itself is filled with inactive ingredients: cellulose, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — standard binders and flow agents that help hold the formula together.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Activates wellness of brain and heart at cellular level.
  • We looked for evidence on: Depression, cardiovascular health, neuroprotection, antioxidant defense.
  • The closest evidence on file: Propolis is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Depression (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for propolis in this product is mixed. It's possibly effective for oral mucositis (mouth sores from cancer treatment) and cold sores (herpes labialis) — meaning there's some clinical support, though more research would help confirm it.

For diabetes, propolis also rates possibly effective. Dengue fever has insufficient evidence in the data we hold, so we can't say either way.

CAPE's effectiveness for athletic performance and obesity is also not established in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Propolis Caffeic Acid

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 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.

Propolis is generally well tolerated short term, but allergic reactions are possible — especially if you're sensitive to bee products. The most common side effect is headache; in one trial, about 7% of people taking 250 mg twice daily for four months reported mild headache.

Topically, it can cause contact dermatitis or cheilitis (lip inflammation) in sensitive skin. Severe allergic reactions are rare but can happen.

Because there isn't enough safety data on supplement doses in pregnancy or breastfeeding, the safety data advises against use in both situations. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your individual situation before taking this during pregnancy or while nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Propolis Caffeic Acid

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Propolis, Caffeic Acid.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; Parkinson's medications.
  • For scale: 1,019 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're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin, aspirin, or clopidogrel) — propolis may increase bleeding risk. Also confirm if you take medications metabolized by your liver's major enzyme systems (CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP3A4, or CYP2E1), as propolis may raise their levels.

If you take levodopa for Parkinson's disease or drugs cleared by your kidneys, check with your pharmacist first.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Green Bee Propolis may help with mouth sores and cold sores, but it interacts with a large number of medications through multiple pathways — especially blood thinners and warfarin. If you take any prescription drugs, check them against the interaction tool on this page before starting.

People allergic to bee products should avoid it. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, propolis might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro research shows that propolis water extract and the propolis constituent, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, can inhibit platelet aggregation. Additionally, evidence from an animal model shows that taking propolis in addition to warfarin decreases INR, suggesting that propolis can decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP1A2. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP1A2 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP1A2 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2C19. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2C19 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2C19 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2C9. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2C9 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2C9 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2D6. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2D6 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2D6 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, propolis might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
In vitro research shows that propolis can inhibit CYP2E1. This effect has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Some in vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP3A4; however, other in vitro research shows that propolis has no effect on CYP3A4 activity. Furthermore, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP3A4 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that might in inhibit CYP3A4 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, propolis might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
Animal research shows that taking propolis in addition to warfarin decreases the international normalized ratio (INR). This effect has not been reported in humans.

Green Bee Propolis by NaturaNectar: Common Questions

Does Green Bee Propolis by NaturaNectar interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Green Bee Propolis has a known interaction with 1,018 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Green Bee Propolis contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety data on supplement doses of propolis during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so the safety data advises against it. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your specific situation — they can help you decide what's right for you.
What's CAPE, and why is it in here?
CAPE (caffeic acid phenethyl ester) is a compound naturally found in propolis. It's included as an active ingredient, though its effectiveness for the conditions this product targets isn't established in our data.
Will this give me a headache?
Headache is the most common side effect when taken by mouth. In one clinical trial, around 7% of people taking 250 mg twice daily for four months reported mild headache — so it's uncommon but possible.
Is this product safe if I'm allergic to bee products?
No — you should avoid it. Propolis is a bee product, and people sensitive to bees or bee products are more likely to have allergic reactions, which can be severe in rare cases.
Does this actually work for cold sores?
Propolis rates as possibly effective for cold sores (herpes labialis), meaning there's some clinical evidence supporting it, though more research would strengthen that claim.
What are ferulic acid and cinnamic acid doing in here?
Both are active ingredients in the formula, but we don't have interaction data on file for them, so we can't tell you much about how they work or their effects.
