HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Irritable Bowel Support 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.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
TerraVita Irritable Bowel Support is a liquid formula containing 3 active ingredients in a proprietary blend: agrimony glycerite liquid extract, psyllium glycerite liquid extract, and carrot pieces glycerite liquid extract. Psyllium is a soluble fiber often used to support digestive regularity and cholesterol levels.
Agrimony is a traditional herbal extract, and carrot provides beta-carotene (vitamin A). The product also contains glycerin as an inactive ingredient.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The strongest evidence in this product is for psyllium. It's rated Effective for constipation and Likely Effective for high cholesterol and heart disease support.
Carrot extract is rated Possibly Effective for vitamin A deficiency but shows Insufficient Reliable Evidence for cancer prevention and other conditions. Agrimony's effectiveness for irritable bowel support is not rated in the data we hold—no formal evidence rating is on file for it.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Psyllium is generally well tolerated when taken with plenty of water. Common side effects include abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and nausea.
Rarely, it can cause bowel or esophageal obstruction, and some people develop allergies to psyllium (symptoms include rash, swelling, wheezing, or difficulty breathing). Psyllium is Likely Safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Agrimony is generally used in food-like amounts in tea, but human safety data are limited; it's rated Possibly Unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding. Carrot as food is safe, but concentrated carrot supplements are not well studied during pregnancy or breastfeeding—talk with your pharmacist if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check with your pharmacist if you take antidiabetes drugs (agrimony may increase low blood sugar risk), metformin, lithium, carbamazepine, olanzapine, birth control pills, or digoxin. Psyllium can delay or reduce how your body absorbs these; spacing doses 30–60 minutes apart may help.
No interactions are documented for the carrot extract we could check.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is mainly a psyllium-based fiber blend suited to people managing constipation or supporting cholesterol and heart health. If you take antidiabetes drugs, lithium, carbamazepine, olanzapine, birth control pills, or digoxin, you'll want to check your exact medications before starting—timing matters.
Pregnant or breastfeeding? Talk to your pharmacist about whether it's right for you.

Irritable Bowel Support by TerraVita Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
TerraVita Irritable Bowel Support contains three active ingredients, two of which have documented interactions with medications.
Agrimony may increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) when combined with antidiabetes drugs—a Moderate concern.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Psyllium, the primary fiber ingredient, has the most documented interactions. It can affect how your body absorbs several medications.
It may increase metformin's effects and side effects; reduce lithium levels; lower carbamazepine and olanzapine absorption; and slightly alter birth control pill (ethinyl estradiol) levels. It may also affect digoxin absorption.
All of these are rated Moderate or Minor severity. To reduce these effects, take psyllium 30–60 minutes after most oral medications.
Carrot extract has no known interactions documented in our data. Altogether, these interactions span 2,034 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Irritable Bowel Support with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Psyllium Glycerite Liquid Extract
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)
Theoretically, blond psyllium might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
Blond psyllium might reduce carbamazepine absorption and serum levels. A preliminary study using blond psyllium reported decreased carbamazepine bioavailability due to binding of the drug to psyllium, as well as reduction of available fluid in the gut for dissolution of the drug.
Lithium
Theoretically, taking blond psyllium at the same time as lithium might reduce lithium absorption.
The fiber in blond psyllium might decrease the absorption of lithium. Some case reports describe a reduction in plasma lithium levels with concomitant administration of blond psyllium. This was reversed when psyllium was stopped.
Metformin (Glucophage)
Theoretically, blond psyllium might increase the therapeutic and adverse effects of metformin.
Concurrent use of blond psyllium with metformin slows and increases metformin absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after metformin.
Olanzapine (Zyprexa)
Theoretically, taking blond psyllium at the same time as olanzapine might reduce olanzapine absorption.
The fiber in blond psyllium might decrease the absorption of olanzapine. A single case report describes a reduction in the effectiveness of olanzapine when it was taken concomitantly with an unspecified type of psyllium 3 grams orally twice daily. This effect was reversed when psyllium was stopped.
Digoxin (Lanoxin)
Theoretically, taking blond psyllium at the same time as digoxin might reduce digoxin absorption.
Psyllium might bind digoxin in the gut. However, some clinical evidence suggests that psyllium does not impact digoxin absorption.
Ethinyl Estradiol
Theoretically, taking blond psyllium at the same time as ethinyl estradiol might alter levels of estradiol.
Concurrent use of blond psyllium with ethinyl estradiol results in a slight increase in the extent of ethinyl estradiol absorption and a slower rate of absorption. However, this is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Oral Drugs
Theoretically, psyllium might increase, decrease, or have no effect on the absorption of oral drugs.
Psyllium seems to have variable effects on drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after oral medications. Animal research shows that blond psyllium delays and increases the absorption of metformin and ethinyl estradiol. Conversely, case reports and animal research suggest that blond psyllium might reduce absorption of lithium, digoxin, olanzapine, and carbamazepine. Finally, some pharmacokinetic studies show that psyllium does not affect the absorption of levothyroxine or warfarin.
Agrimony Glycerite Liquid Extract
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, taking agrimony with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Agrimony has demonstrated hypoglycemic effects in animal research.
