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 Lobelia product and its label doesn't state a use — see Lobelia'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.

Lobelia is rated possibly ineffective for smoking cessation based on the data we hold. If you're looking for help quitting smoking, we'd recommend talking with your doctor or pharmacist about options with stronger evidence behind them.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lobelia

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.

Lobelia can be toxic, especially at higher doses, so caution is strongly advised. At doses as low as 50 mg, it may cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, dizziness, tremors, and throat irritation.

At 600 mg or higher, lobelia leaf can trigger serious toxicity: sweating, rapid heart rate, seizures, dangerously low body temperature, very low blood pressure, coma, and in severe cases, death. The safety data advises against using this product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding due to toxicity concerns and lack of safety information.

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Lobelia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 1 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.

If you take lithium, this is the main one to discuss with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — lobelia may affect how your body clears it from your system.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Lobelia is a potent plant extract with narrow safety margins and real toxicity risks, especially at higher doses. If you take lithium, you'll want to check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product — they can manage any dose adjustments.

Given the limited evidence for its intended use and the serious side-effect potential, talk with your own healthcare provider about whether this is right for you.

Lobelia is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, lobelia might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Lobelia Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Lobelia Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Lobelia Chocolate Flavor has a known interaction with 1 medication. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Lobelia Chocolate Flavor 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against using lobelia during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because of toxicity concerns and insufficient safety information. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about safer alternatives.
What side effects might I have?
At lower doses, lobelia can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, dizziness, tremors, and throat irritation — some people report these at doses as low as 50 mg. At higher doses (600 mg or more of the leaf), toxicity symptoms include rapid heart rate, very low blood pressure, seizures, and in severe cases, loss of consciousness or death.
Does this actually help you quit smoking?
The evidence we have rates lobelia as possibly ineffective for smoking cessation. If you're looking to quit, your doctor or pharmacist can discuss options with better evidence behind them.
What is lobelia and why is it in this product?
Lobelia is a plant traditionally used in herbal medicine. This product is a liquid extract made by soaking the plant in glycerin. It's sold primarily for smoking cessation, though the scientific support for that use is weak.
Is this safe at any dose?
Lobelia has a narrow safety window. Even at doses as low as 50 mg, it can cause uncomfortable side effects, and doses of 600 mg or higher carry serious toxicity risks. Strong caution is advised, and it's best to discuss dosing with your doctor or pharmacist rather than self-dosing.
