HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lung Support by Red Moon Herbs
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
Low disclosure
Red Moon Herbs Lung Support is a liquid blend containing 3 active ingredients: elecampane (fresh), horehound (fresh), and plantain (fresh). These are traditional herbs sometimes used to support respiratory health, though the evidence for their effectiveness is limited.
The product also contains water and alcohol as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Not established
We don't have reliable evidence yet for elecampane's effects on cough or acne — the data rates both as insufficient. Horehound and plantain are included in the blend, but we don't have effectiveness ratings for them on file either.
If respiratory support is what you're after, talk with your pharmacist about what the research actually shows for this type of product.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Elecampane is generally used in small amounts in teas and tinctures, but it can trigger allergic reactions and upset your stomach. The most common concern is allergic contact dermatitis if you're sensitive to plants in the ragweed family (like chrysanthemums and daisies).
At high doses, it may cause vomiting, diarrhea, spasms, and in rare cases, paralysis symptoms. The safety data advises against using elecampane during pregnancy and breastfeeding — there isn't enough information to know it's safe.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check your medications if you take CNS depressants — drugs that make you drowsy or slow your breathing, like sleep aids, benzodiazepines, or certain pain relievers. Elecampane may add to their sedative effects.
We couldn't check horehound and plantain, so mention those names to your pharmacist too.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is for people interested in traditional herbal respiratory support who don't take sedating medications. If you take anything for sleep, anxiety, pain, or depression, check with your pharmacist first.

Lung Support by Red Moon Herbs Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Red Moon Herbs Lung Support contains elecampane, which has documented interactions with medications.
The main concern is with CNS depressants — sedating drugs like benzodiazepines, sleep aids, and some pain relievers. Elecampane may add to their drowsy effects, so combining them could make you more sedated than either one alone.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Altogether, these interactions span 248 individual medications.
We couldn't check horehound and plantain — we don't hold interaction data for those ingredients. Before you start this product, run your exact medications through the checker below, especially if you take anything that makes you drowsy or slows your breathing.
