HelloPharmacist Scorecard of HTN 180 Px by Restorative Formulations

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.

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 5 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (24 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

HTN 180 Px contains 7 ingredients total. The active botanicals are passionflower, European mistletoe, motherwort, hawthorn, African snakeroot, and vitexin, delivered in a proprietary blend.

These work together traditionally to support cardiovascular and nervous-system function. Rice flour is an inactive ingredient (filler).

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: Blood pressure support within normal range.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hypertension, Cardiovascular health, Heart health.
  • The closest evidence on file: Motherwort is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hypertension (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Hawthorn is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hypertension.
  • Also on file: European Mistletoe is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hypertension.

The evidence supporting these ingredients is limited. Passionflower is rated possibly effective for insomnia and pre-procedural anxiety, but there's insufficient evidence for alcohol use disorder or benzodiazepine withdrawal.

Motherwort is possibly effective for bleeding, though evidence for anxiety, asthma, and other uses is insufficient. Hawthorn, European mistletoe, and the other ingredients lack reliable evidence for their traditional cardiovascular uses in our data.

If you're considering this for a specific condition, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the science actually shows.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Passion Flower European Mistletoe Motherwort Hawthorn

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 4 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Passionflower is generally well tolerated short-term but commonly causes drowsiness, dizziness, and confusion. It's possibly unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding due to lack of safety data.

European mistletoe is generally well tolerated in small amounts orally but carries serious cautions: raw mistletoe is toxic, and standardized products should only be used under medical supervision. It's likely unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding.

Motherwort is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults but causes contact dermatitis on the skin, photosensitivity with sun exposure, and gastrointestinal upset; it's likely unsafe in pregnancy and best avoided while breastfeeding. Hawthorn is generally well tolerated in studies, though rare multiorgan reactions causing kidney failure have been reported; it lacks safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Do not use this product if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 4 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Motherwort, Hawthorn, Passion Flower, European Mistletoe.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 1,151 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 HTN 180 Px, check with your pharmacist or doctor if you take nitrates, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (like sildenafil), beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelets), digoxin, any blood pressure medication, immunosuppressants, sedating drugs like benzodiazepines or prescription sleep aids, or medications processed through the OATP transporters or CYP3A4 enzyme. Major interactions are possible with some of these; do not start without guidance.

Passionflower3 drug types · 836 drugs

Cns Depressants

Concomitant use of passion flower with sedative drugs might cause additive effects and side effects.
Research in animals and humans shows that passion flower has sedative effects which can be additive when used with sedative medications like lorazepam.

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

Theoretically, passion flower might decrease the effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that passion flower can induce CYP3A4 enzymes, albeit to a much lower degree than rifampin, a known CYP3A4 inducer.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Organic Anion-Transporting Polypeptide Substrates (Oatp)

Theoretically, passion flower might reduce the bioavailability of OATP2B1 and OATP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that the passion flower constituents apigenin and vitexin inhibit OATP2B1 and OATP1A2. This inhibition may be dose-dependent. One specific high-flavonoid passion flower extract (Valverde) seems to inhibit OATP2B1 and OATP1A2, while another extract with a lower flavonoid concentration (Arkocaps) shows less potent inhibition. OATPs are responsible for the uptake of drugs and other compounds into the body; however, the specific activities of OATP2B1 and OATP1A2 are not well characterized.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

European Mistletoe2 drug types · 293 drugs

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, European mistletoe might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that European mistletoe extracts have hypotensive effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, European mistletoe might decrease the effectiveness of immunosuppressants.
Clinical and in vitro studies suggest that European mistletoe might have immunostimulant effects.

Motherwort1 drug type · 248 drugs

Cns Depressants

Theoretically, taking motherwort concomitantly with other CNS depressants may increase the risk of sedation.
Motherwort has been reported to cause CNS depression and sedation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Motherwort full monograph & interactions

Hawthorn6 drug types · 191 drugs

Nitrates

Theoretically, concomitant use might cause additive coronary vasodilatory effects.
Some evidence shows that hawthorn might lower blood pressure due to vasodilatory effects.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors

Theoretically, concomitant use might result in additive vasodilation and hypotension.
Hawthorn might inhibit PDE-5 and cause vasodilation.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, hawthorn may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research shows that hawthorn can inhibit platelet aggregation. However, its effect in humans is unclear. One observational study shows that patients taking hawthorn shortly before undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery or valve replacement surgery have a 10% incidence of postoperative bleeding, compared with 1% in those who never consumed hawthorn extract. However, clinical research shows that taking a specific preparation of dried hawthorn leaves and flowers (Crataesor, Soria Natural Lab) 800 mg three times daily for 15 days does not affect platelet aggregation or levels of thromboxane B2, the metabolite of thromboxane A2, in healthy humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Beta-Blockers

Theoretically, concomitant use might cause additive effects on blood pressure and heart rate.
Some evidence shows that hawthorn might lower blood pressure and heart rate.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Calcium Channel Blockers

Theoretically, concomitant use might cause additive coronary vasodilation and hypotensive effects.
Some evidence shows that hawthorn might lower blood pressure due to vasodilatory effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, hawthorn might potentiate the effects and adverse effects of digoxin.
Hawthorn appears to improve cardiac output; however, hawthorn does not appear to affect digoxin pharmacokinetics. Case reports suggest that at least one species of hawthorn root extract (Crataegus mexicana) may produce adverse effects similar to digoxin and can cross-react with digoxin assays, leading to falsely elevated plasma digoxin levels.

HTN 180 Px by Restorative Formulations: Common Questions

Does HTN 180 Px by Restorative Formulations interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, HTN 180 Px has a known interaction with 1,150 medications, including 14 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
HTN 180 Px contains 7 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 while pregnant or nursing?
No. Passionflower is possibly unsafe in pregnancy, and European mistletoe and motherwort are likely unsafe. Passionflower and European mistletoe should be avoided while breastfeeding due to lack of safety data. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, do not use this product—talk with your doctor first.
Will this make me drowsy?
Yes, drowsiness is a common side effect of passionflower, one of the main ingredients. You may also experience dizziness or confusion. If you drive or operate machinery, be cautious.
What is hawthorn supposed to do?
Hawthorn is traditionally used to support heart health and blood pressure, but there's insufficient reliable evidence in our data to confirm it works for specific cardiovascular conditions. If you have a heart condition, you'll need medical supervision—and hawthorn can interact with many heart medications.
Can I take this with my blood pressure medication?
Possibly, but only after checking with your pharmacist or doctor. Hawthorn may lower blood pressure itself, and European mistletoe can too. Adding this product to your blood pressure drug could cause your pressure to drop too far. Do not start without guidance.
Is this safe if I take a sedative or sleep aid?
No, not without checking first. Both passionflower and motherwort can cause extra drowsiness and sedation when combined with sedating medications like benzodiazepines or prescription sleep aids. This is a Moderate-level interaction. Talk to your pharmacist before using them together.
What's the proprietary blend, and why aren't all ingredients listed?
A proprietary blend groups ingredients together for competitive reasons, but each component inside is still listed separately on the label. You can see passionflower, mistletoe, motherwort, hawthorn, African snakeroot, and vitexin as the active botanicals in this product.
