HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Jaborandi by Herbal Terra

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

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: jaborandi leaf extract (dried form). Jaborandi has been used traditionally in herbal medicine, but because it's a concentrated extract of a plant with potent alkaloids, the strength and safety profile are quite different from the raw herb.

The liquid also contains alcohol, water, and glycerin as inactive ingredients to deliver the extract.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Jaborandi product and its label doesn't state a use — see Jaborandi's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for jaborandi leaf extract. That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the evidence we hold doesn't establish what it does or doesn't do.

If you're considering this for a specific health goal, ask your pharmacist or doctor what the current research shows.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Jaborandi

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.

Here's what you need to know: jaborandi contains powerful alkaloids that can be toxic, and the raw herb should never be self-administered without medical oversight. The lethal oral dose of jaborandi leaf is roughly 5 to 10 grams, so dosing matters enormously.

Poisoning symptoms include a slow heartbeat (bradycardia), muscle spasms in the airways (bronchospasm), severe belly pain, heart collapse or arrest, seizures, low blood pressure (hypotension), shortness of breath (dyspnea), nausea, extreme sweating and salivation, and vomiting. Jaborandi is rated unsafe in pregnancy and unsafe while breastfeeding — the safety data advises against both.

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check. However, this product carries toxicity risks independent of drug interactions, so discuss it with your pharmacist or doctor before starting.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Jaborandi is not a routine supplement. It's a potent plant extract with serious safety concerns, a narrow margin between an active dose and a toxic one, and no established effectiveness data in our records.

If you're thinking about taking it, talk with your doctor or pharmacist first — especially if you have any heart or lung conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding?

Skip it.

Jaborandi by Herbal Terra: Common Questions

Does Jaborandi by Herbal Terra interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Jaborandi. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Jaborandi 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.
What exactly is jaborandi, and what is it used for?
Jaborandi is a plant extract that has been used in traditional herbal medicine. We don't have established effectiveness data on file for what it does, so talk with your pharmacist about whether there's evidence for your specific interest.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Jaborandi is rated unsafe during pregnancy and unsafe while breastfeeding. The safety data advises against both — talk with your OB/GYN or midwife before considering any herbal product during these times.
What are the side effects?
Jaborandi can cause poisoning if you take too much. Symptoms include a very slow heartbeat, muscle spasms in the airways, severe belly pain, heart collapse or arrest, seizures, low blood pressure, shortness of breath, nausea, extreme sweating and drooling, and vomiting. The lethal dose is around 5 to 10 grams, so dosing is critical.
Why does the label say the raw herb shouldn't be self-administered?
Because jaborandi contains powerful alkaloids that are toxic in uncontrolled amounts. Even though this is an extract in a liquid form, the potency and safety margin are narrow — it's not something to use without medical guidance.
Does it interact with my medications?
No interactions are documented for jaborandi in our data. That said, the bigger safety question here is the toxicity risk itself. Run your exact medications through the checker on this page to be sure, and talk with your pharmacist about whether this product is appropriate for you.
