HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Healthy Leg Veins by Terry Naturally

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

Partial disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Partial

Most active ingredients list an amount, but at least one is hidden in a blend or missing.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Complex” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Red Vine (Vitis vinifera) leaf extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Healthy Leg Veins contains two active ingredients designed to support vein health. Resveratrol (listed as Trans-Resveratrols) is a natural compound found in grapes and red wine.

Butcher's broom root extract comes from a Mediterranean plant traditionally used for circulatory issues. The product also contains a proprietary blend that includes Red Vine leaf extract.

These actives are combined with inactive ingredients — capsule materials and fillers — to form the supplement.

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: supports healthy veins and circulation.
  • We looked for evidence on: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), Varicose veins, Hemorrhoids, Venous insufficiency, Leg edema, Vascular health.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Butcher's Broom is rated "Possibly Effective" for Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Butcher's Broom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hemorrhoids, Varicose veins.

The evidence for this product's ingredients is mixed. Resveratrol has possibly effective evidence for obesity and allergic rhinitis (hay fever), but is rated possibly ineffective for cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol.

Butcher's broom shows possibly effective evidence specifically for chronic venous insufficiency (poor circulation in the legs and veins), which aligns with the product's stated purpose. However, the evidence for butcher's broom in other conditions — diabetic eye damage, hemorrhoids, orthostatic low blood pressure (dizziness on standing), and lymphedema — is insufficient to rate.

The effectiveness of the Red Vine leaf extract in this blend is not established in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Grape Butcher's Broom

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 2 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.

Resveratrol is generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses, though higher doses may cause digestive upset and long-term safety isn't fully known. The most common side effects reported are diarrhea, loose stools, and gastrointestinal discomfort.

Rare cases have included headache, fatigue, and memory loss (in patients on dialysis, though causality wasn't proven), and one skin rash that resolved after stopping the supplement. Butcher's broom is also generally well tolerated short-term, but long-term safety data is limited.

Common side effects are diarrhea, indigestion, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting. One case of severe vomiting and diarrhea led to hospitalization, and topical use has caused contact dermatitis in sensitive individuals.

The safety data advises against resveratrol supplements during pregnancy and while breastfeeding; for butcher's broom, pregnancy and breastfeeding use is also not advised.

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 — Resveratrol, Butcher's Broom.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 906 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 pharmacist if you're on blood thinners (anticoagulants) or antiplatelet drugs like aspirin — resveratrol may increase bleeding risk. Also flag any medications metabolized by CYP2E1, CYP2C19, CYP1A2, or CYP3A4 enzymes, and any drugs that work through alpha-adrenergic (adrenaline-like) pathways.

The search tool on this page can help you verify your specific medications.

The bottom line

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

This product targets people concerned about leg vein health, where butcher's broom has some supporting evidence. However, it's important to check your medications first — resveratrol in particular can interfere with blood thinners and several enzyme systems.

If you take any prescription drugs or have poor circulation or bleeding concerns, talk to your pharmacist before starting.

Red Vine (Vitis vinifera) leaf extract9 drug types · 910 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, grape extracts may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape extracts might decrease platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Ingesting grape juice with cyclosporine can reduce cyclosporine absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy young adults shows that intake of purple grape juice 200 mL along with cyclosporine can decrease the absorption of cyclosporine by up to 30% when compared with water. Separate doses of grape juice and cyclosporine by at least 2 hours to avoid this interaction.

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

Theoretically, grape juice might reduce the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of CYP1A2.

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

Theoretically, grape seed extract may increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP2D6 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, grape seed extract might increase the levels of CYP2E1 substrates.
In vitro and animal research suggests that grape seed proanthocyanidin extract inhibits CYP2E1 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

It is unclear if grape seed extract inhibits or induces CYP3A4; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP3A4 enzymes. However, evidence from animal research shows that grape seed extract may induce CYP3A4 in the liver. So far, these interactions have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Midazolam (Versed)

Theoretically, long-term intake of grape seed extract might decrease the effects of midazolam.
Animal research shows that subchronic ingestions of grape seed extract can increase the elimination of intravenous midazolam by increasing hepatic CYP3A4 activity. Single doses of grape seed extract do not appear to affect midazolam elimination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenacetin

Grape juice might decrease phenacetin absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2).

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

It is unclear if grape juice or grape seed extract inhibits CYP2C9; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence shows that grape seed extract or grape juice might inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. However, a small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that drinking 8 ounces of grape juice once does not affect the clearance of flurbiprofen, a probe-drug for CYP2C9 metabolism. The effects of continued grape juice consumption are unclear.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Butcher's Broom (Ruscus aculeatus) root extract2 drug types · 158 drugs

Alpha-Adrenergic Agonists

Theoretically, butcher's broom might increase the effects and adverse effects of alpha-adrenergic agonists.
Animal and in vitro studies show that butcher's broom has alpha-adrenergic agonist effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Alpha-Adrenergic Antagonists

Theoretically, butcher's broom might reduce the effects of alpha-adrenergic antagonists.
Animal and in vitro studies show that butcher's broom has alpha-adrenergic agonist effects.

Healthy Leg Veins by Terry Naturally: Common Questions

Does Healthy Leg Veins by Terry Naturally interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Healthy Leg Veins has a known interaction with 1,001 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Healthy Leg Veins 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.
What is resveratrol and why is it in this product?
Resveratrol is a natural compound found in grapes and red wine. It's included here for its potential cardiovascular and general wellness benefits, though the evidence for heart disease and cholesterol is mixed — it's more supported for obesity and seasonal allergies.
What does butcher's broom do?
Butcher's broom is a plant extract traditionally used to support leg vein and circulation health. It has possibly effective evidence for chronic venous insufficiency — the condition of poor blood flow in the veins — which matches what this product is designed for.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against this product during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. There isn't enough information to know either way for one of the ingredients, but the data we do have suggests caution. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice on your situation.
What side effects might I experience?
The most common side effects are digestive — diarrhea, loose stools, indigestion, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting. These are generally mild. Rare effects have included headache, fatigue, and skin rash. If you develop severe vomiting or diarrhea, stop taking it and contact your healthcare provider.
Is this product safe at any dose?
Resveratrol is generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses, though high doses may cause digestive upset and long-term safety isn't fully established. Butcher's broom is well tolerated short-term, but long-term safety data is limited. Don't exceed the label dose.
