HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lavender Flower 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
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: Lavender Flower Glycerite Liquid Extract. The glycerin is an inactive carrier used to deliver the lavender.
Glycerite extracts are alcohol-free alternatives to traditional tinctures, making them suitable for people who prefer to avoid alcohol or who cannot tolerate it.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence for lavender is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for dysmenorrhea (period pain).
For cancer-related pain, it's rated possibly ineffective. For other uses listed here — hair loss (alopecia areata), pre-procedural anxiety, and cancer-related fatigue — there isn't enough reliable evidence yet to know whether it works.
If you're considering lavender for one of these conditions, talk with your doctor about whether the current evidence supports trying it for your specific situation.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Lavender in food amounts and larger oral doses is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects reported orally are breath odor, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn (dyspepsia), burping, headache, and nausea.
When applied to skin, lavender oil is also generally well tolerated, though allergic contact dermatitis (rash) can occur in some people. Rare cases of enlarged breast tissue have been reported in prepubertal boys using lavender oil topically.
The facts note that safety data for lavender is not comprehensive, and the product recommends avoiding medicinal amounts unless your doctor approves. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, there isn't enough reliable information on file here to say whether lavender is safe — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check any CNS depressants (sedatives, sleep aids, anti-anxiety medications, opioid pain relievers, antihistamines, and alcohol) with your doctor or pharmacist. Lavender may strengthen the sedating effects of these drugs, making you drowsier or amplifying side effects.
No other medication interactions are documented in our data for this ingredient.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Lavender glycerite may help with period pain, and it's generally well tolerated at typical doses. However, it can amplify the effects of sedating medications and CNS depressants — a moderate-risk interaction affecting many common drugs.
Before you start, check your medications against the tool on this page, especially if you take sleep aids, anxiety meds, opioids, or drink alcohol regularly. Your doctor or pharmacist can help you decide whether it's right for you.

Lavender Flower by TerraVita Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
TerraVita's Lavender Flower Glycerite Liquid Extract has documented interactions with one major drug category: CNS depressants (sedatives, sleep aids, anti-anxiety medications, pain relievers like opioids, and alcohol).
The concern is moderate in severity — lavender may strengthen both the therapeutic and adverse effects of these medications, meaning you could feel more drowsy or sedated than expected, or experience other side effects more intensely.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Laboratory research shows lavender does have sedative properties. However, clinical trials of oral lavender haven't reported problems at the doses tested — patients taking lavender oil (Silexan) 160 mg daily for 10 weeks or lavender flower powder 1 gram daily for 2 months didn't show unexpected side effects in those studies.
That said, the theoretical risk remains, and individual responses vary.
Altogether, these interactions span 248 individual medications. Because CNS depressants are so common — from prescription sleeping pills and anxiety medications to over-the-counter pain relievers and cold medicines containing opioids or antihistamines — you'll want to check your specific medications with the search tool on this page before starting lavender.

Cns Depressants
Theoretically, lavender might potentiate the therapeutic effects and adverse effects of CNS depressants.
Laboratory research suggests that lavender has sedative effects. However, clinical studies in patients taking oral lavender oil (Silexan) 160 mg for 10 weeks or taking lavender flower powder 1 gram daily for 2 months have not reported side effects of drowsiness, sedation, or sleepiness. There is still some concern that higher doses or different preparations of lavender might have additive effects with CNS depressant medications.
