HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lymph Formula by Woodstock Herbal Products

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 4 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (440 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Lymph Formula has 4 active ingredients. The product contains a proprietary extract blend as its base, plus Barberry root bark extract, Mullein Leaf Extract, and Lobelia (in both aerial parts and seed extract forms).

These are blended into a liquid with apple cider vinegar and alcohol as inactive ingredients.

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence on these ingredients is limited. Mullein is listed with insufficient reliable evidence for bronchitis, asthma, cough, migraine headache, and diarrhea.

Lobelia is rated as possibly ineffective for smoking cessation. The data we hold doesn't establish that this product works for any condition.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient European Barberry Mullein 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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Mullein is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but human safety data are limited overall. However, there are rare case reports of dermatitis from direct plant contact or inhalation of plant dust.

Lobelia carries stronger caution: it can be toxic and cause serious effects at higher doses. Doses as low as 50 mg have caused nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, dizziness, tremors, and throat irritation.

At 600 mg or higher, lobelia toxicity can cause rapid heart rate, low blood pressure, convulsions, loss of body heat, and potentially death. Because of this toxicity risk, lobelia is not advised during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient European Barberry Mullein Lobelia

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

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

Why this rating?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lobelia, European Barberry, Mullein.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,211 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 for mood disorders, do not start this product without talking to your pharmacist or doctor — lobelia may raise lithium levels to unsafe ranges. If you take blood thinners (warfarin, aspirin, or others), check first; mullein may add a mild blood-thinning effect.

Barberry root bark extract could not be checked — we hold no interaction data for it.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is not established to work for any condition in the data we hold. If you take lithium or blood thinners, check with your pharmacist before starting — this formula may require dose adjustments or shouldn't be used at all.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, the safety data advise against it, especially because of the lobelia content.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Lymph Formula with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Barberry root bark extract8 drug types · 1,210 drugs

Anticholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, taking European barberry with anticholinergic drugs might cause additive effects.
In vitro evidence suggests that European barberry might have anticholinergic properties.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, European barberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal evidence suggest that berberine, a constituent of European barberry, might inhibit platelet aggregation. Theoretically, European barberry might have a similar effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking European barberry with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Preliminary clinical evidence suggests that European barberry juice reduces fasting glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes who are also taking antidiabetes drugs. Additionally, some animal studies show that berberine, a constituent of European barberry, has antiglycemic potential. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking European barberry with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal and human research suggests that European barberry extracts can have hypotensive effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, taking European barberry with cholinergic drugs might decrease the effects of cholinergic drugs.
In vitro evidence suggests that European barberry might have anticholinergic properties.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, concomitant use with drugs that have sedative properties may cause additive effects.
Animal research suggests that berberine, a constituent of European barberry, might have sedative effects. Theoretically, European barberry might have a similar effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, concomitant use with cyclosporine may cause additive effects.
Berberine, a constituent of European barberry, can reduce the metabolism and increase serum levels of cyclosporine. This effect is attributed to the ability of berberine to inhibit cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), which metabolizes cyclosporine. Theoretically, European barberry might have a similar effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, European barberry might increase the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
There is very preliminary evidence suggesting that berberine, a constituent of European barberry, might inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme. Theoretically, European barberry might have a similar effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Mullein Leaf Extract1 drug type · 122 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Lab tests on extracts from different parts of common and dense-flowered mullein plants show that they do have some blood-thinning effects, as they increase the time it takes for blood to clot. This is likely due to at least one of the known constituents of muellein, triterpenoid saponins. However, the effects appear to be mild and results have been inconsistent. Extracts from different plant parts have been show to have varying anticoagulant strengths, with water-based ones being more potent than alcohol-based extracts.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence A

Lobelia Aerial Parts Extract1 drug type · 1 drug

Lithium

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.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D

Lymph Formula by Woodstock Herbal Products: Common Questions

Does Lymph Formula by Woodstock Herbal Products interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Lymph Formula has a known interaction with 1,210 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Lymph Formula contains 4 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 nursing?
No. Mullein is best avoided in pregnancy because there isn't enough safety data. Lobelia, which is also in this formula, is rated likely unsafe during both pregnancy and breastfeeding due to toxicity concerns. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're considering it.
What's lobelia, and why is it a concern?
Lobelia is a plant extract added to this formula. At normal doses it can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and throat irritation. At higher doses (600 mg or more), it can be toxic — causing rapid heart rate, dangerously low blood pressure, convulsions, and potentially death. This is why caution is strongly advised.
What does mullein do in here?
Mullein is a traditional herbal ingredient, but we don't have reliable evidence that it works for bronchitis, cough, asthma, migraine, or diarrhea. It's generally well tolerated for short-term use, though human safety data are limited.
What are the inactive ingredients?
The formula contains apple cider vinegar and alcohol as fillers and preservatives. If you need to avoid alcohol, that's something to flag with your pharmacist.
Is this safe to use with my medications?
It depends on what you're taking. Lithium and blood thinners are the main ones to watch. Use the medication checker on this page with your exact prescriptions, or ask your pharmacist — we couldn't check barberry root bark either, so it's best to verify everything.
