HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lobelia Vanilla Flavor 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: lobelia glycerite liquid extract, a concentrated preparation of the lobelia plant. The extract is dissolved in glycerin and flavored with vanilla.
No other active ingredients are present.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for lobelia as a smoking-cessation aid is rated possibly ineffective in the data we hold. If you're considering it for another purpose, that effectiveness information isn't established in our records.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Lobelia can be toxic, especially at higher doses, and caution is strongly advised. Even at doses as low as 50 mg, it can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, dizziness, tremors, and throat irritation.
At 600 mg or higher, toxicity risk climbs — symptoms can include rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, seizures, abnormally low body temperature, and in severe cases, coma or death. Do not use this product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
The safety data indicates it is likely unsafe for both. If you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before considering any lobelia product.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take lithium for bipolar disorder, check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product — lobelia may raise your lithium level and require a dose change.
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 high-risk supplement with serious toxicity concerns, particularly at higher doses. It's generally not recommended for smoking cessation based on the evidence we have.
If you take lithium or are pregnant or breastfeeding, this product is not appropriate without your doctor's input. Before starting, discuss it with your own doctor or pharmacist — the potential risks need to be weighed carefully for your situation.

Lobelia Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
TerraVita Lobelia Vanilla Flavor contains lobelia, which does interact with one medication class.
The main concern is lithium, a mood-stabilizing drug used for bipolar disorder. Lobelia is thought to work as a diuretic (a fluid-loss agent), and this may reduce how your kidneys clear lithium from your body, raising lithium levels and potentially requiring a dose adjustment.
If you take lithium, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product.
