HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Melilot Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra
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: melilotus herb extract (dry), also known as sweet clover. Sweet clover is a traditional herbal remedy used for various circulatory and pain conditions.
The inactive ingredients are glycerin and water.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence on sweet clover for its traditional uses—chronic venous insufficiency (the buildup of fluid and problems with blood return in the legs), diabetic nerve pain, hemorrhoids, and postoperative pain—is insufficient to rate. We don't hold established data showing it works for these purposes.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Sweet clover is generally used in small amounts, but its coumarin content affects how your blood clots and how your liver works, so use it cautiously. Avoid it during pregnancy — there isn't enough safety information available.
Safety while breastfeeding is unknown, so it's best avoided then too. In rare cases, headache has been reported.
Large amounts can cause transient liver injury in susceptible people, and a case of bleeding disorder was reported after prolonged use of a multi-herb tea containing sweet clover and other coumarin-rich herbs, though it's unclear whether sweet clover alone was responsible.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you start, double-check this product if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (warfarin, dabigatran, aspirin, clopidogrel, and others)—sweet clover may increase bleeding risk. Also flag any medications known to affect the liver.
Altogether, these interactions span 464 individual medications.
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.
If you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, or medications that stress your liver, check with your pharmacist before trying this product. Pregnant people and those breastfeeding should avoid it.
For everyone else, the main caution is using it in small amounts and watching for unusual bleeding or signs of liver trouble.

Melilot Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Melilot Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra contains sweet clover extract, which interacts with medications in two important ways.
The most serious concern is with blood thinners (anticoagulants) and antiplatelet drugs — fresh sweet clover contains compounds that can be converted to dicoumarol, which itself thins the blood, so combining it with warfarin, dabigatran, aspirin, or similar drugs raises the risk of bleeding.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The product may also pose a Moderate risk to the liver when used alongside hepatotoxic drugs (medications known to stress liver function). Sweet clover's coumarin content can cause transient liver injury in susceptible people, and adding hepatotoxic medications could theoretically increase that risk.
Alone, we found no interactions documented for other medications across our database. That said, the two drug categories above deserve attention before you start this product.

For each ingredient in Melilot Alcohol Free with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Melilotus Herb Extract, Dry
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, fresh sweet clover might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Fresh sweet clover contains coumarinic acids, which are converted to free coumarins during drying. Dicoumarol, which has anticoagulant activity, also has been found in some sweet clover preparations and can be formed if fresh sweet clover is allowed to spoil.
Hepatotoxic Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use of sweet clover with hepatoxic drugs might increase the risk of hepatotoxicity.
Orally, large amounts of sweet clover can cause transient liver injury in susceptible individuals, possibly due to coumarin content. In one case report, a patient with multiple sclerosis developed jaundiced palms and a slight elevation in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) after taking sweet clover containing coumarin 10 mg daily for 3 years. Two weeks after starting therapy with subcutaneous interferon (IFN)-beta 1b, aspartate transaminase (AST) and ALT levels increased to 7 and 17 times the upper limit of normal, respectively. Levels normalized after discontinuation of both products. Subsequent use of IFN-beta 1a alone, without sweet clover, resulted in only a very slight increase in AST.
