HelloPharmacist Scorecard of High Strength Peppermint 150 mg by Simply Supplements

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

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: peppermint herb extract at 150 mg per dose. Peppermint is the aerial (above-ground) part of the plant, concentrated into an extract form.

The tablet also contains three inactive ingredients — microcrystalline cellulose (a binder), dicalcium phosphate, and magnesium stearate — that help hold the tablet together.

Does it work?

Strong 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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Peppermint's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Peppermint for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Barium enema-related colonic spasm — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Dyspepsia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Endoscopy-associated adverse effects — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Peppermint extract is likely effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It's possibly effective for dyspepsia (indigestion), chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, barium enema-related colon spasm, and endoscopy-related side effects.

The evidence supporting these uses comes from clinical trials, though the strength of that evidence varies by condition.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Peppermint

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.

Peppermint herb is rated likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. Orally, peppermint is generally well tolerated, though some people report abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, dry mouth, heartburn, nausea, or vomiting.

Rare allergic reactions — including anaphylaxis (severe sudden swelling of lips, tongue, and throat) and severe reactions in people with asthma — have been reported. At very high doses, peppermint oil can cause burns in the mouth and throat.

Because this is a concentrated supplement rather than culinary-strength peppermint, use it only as directed on the label.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Peppermint

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 — Peppermint.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: immunosuppressants / transplant drugs.
  • For scale: 797 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 take CYP3A4 substrates (a large group including many heart and blood pressure drugs, statins, and immunosuppressants like cyclosporine), CYP2C19 substrates (some blood thinners, antidepressants, and stomach acid reducers), CYP2C9 substrates (blood thinners like warfarin and some NSAIDs), or CYP1A2 substrates (some antipsychotics and stimulants). Most of these interactions are theoretical in humans, but peppermint oil has been shown in clinical research to inhibit at least one of these pathways.

Peppermint herb extract5 drug types · 796 drugs

Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, peppermint oil might increase the levels and adverse effects of cyclosporine.
In animal research, peppermint oil inhibits cyclosporine metabolism and increases cyclosporine levels. Inhibition of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) may be partially responsible for this interaction. An interaction between peppermint oil and cyclosporine has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro research shows that peppermint oil inhibits CYP2C19. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that peppermint oil inhibits CYP2C9. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that a single dose of peppermint oil 600 mg inhibits CYP3A4 enzymes and increases the AUC of felodipine, a CYP3A4 substrate. However, in vitro research suggests that peppermint oil only inhibits CYP3A4 at very high concentrations.

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

Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro and animal research shows that peppermint oil and peppermint leaf inhibit CYP1A2. However, in clinical research, peppermint tea did not significantly affect the metabolism of caffeine, a CYP1A2 substrate. It is possible that the 6-day duration of treatment may have been too short to identify a difference.

High Strength Peppermint 150 mg by Simply Supplements: Common Questions

Does High Strength Peppermint 150 mg by Simply Supplements interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, High Strength Peppermint 150 mg has a known interaction with 796 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
High Strength Peppermint 150 mg 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.
Does peppermint actually help IBS?
Yes — peppermint is rated likely effective for irritable bowel syndrome based on clinical trial evidence. It's also possibly effective for indigestion and nausea.
What are the most common side effects?
Most people tolerate peppermint well. The most common side effects are mild: abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, dry mouth, heartburn, nausea, or vomiting. Allergic reactions are rare but have occurred.
Is it safe to take during pregnancy?
Yes — peppermint herb is rated likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. Just follow the dose on the label.
Why does this interact with so many medications?
Peppermint affects the liver enzymes that break down many drugs. When these enzymes are slowed, medication levels in your blood can rise, which may increase side effects. That's why it's important to check your specific medications before starting.
Has the liver enzyme interaction been proven in people?
Clinical research shows peppermint oil inhibits one pathway (CYP3A4) in healthy volunteers. For the other pathways, the evidence is mostly from lab studies — human interactions haven't been reported yet, but they're theoretically possible.
Is concentrated peppermint supplement safer than peppermint tea?
No — concentrated supplements carry more risk. Culinary peppermint tea in normal amounts is safer. This high-strength tablet is a concentrated form, so use it only as directed and clear it with your doctor or pharmacist first if you take any prescriptions.
