HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lady's Slipper Flower Essence by Flower Essence Services

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 1 active ingredient.

This product contains one active ingredient: an infusion of Cypripedium parviflorum, commonly called nerve root, at a ratio of 1 part herb to 6,000 parts finished liquid. The inactive ingredients are water and brandy (the liquid carrier and preservative).

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 Nerve Root product and its label doesn't state a use — see Nerve Root'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 hold effectiveness ratings for this product in our data, so we can't tell you how well it's documented to work.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Nerve Root

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.

Safety data for nerve root are very limited, and human studies are sparse. When taken by mouth in large doses, it may cause hallucinations, dizziness, restlessness, headache, and mental excitement.

Applied to the skin, it can cause contact dermatitis (skin irritation). The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know it's safe.
