HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Methihills by Herbal Hills
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
Methihills contains 2 active ingredients, both forms of fenugreek (methi): an extract and a powder. Fenugreek is a seed used traditionally to support blood sugar, sexual function, and menstrual comfort.
There are no inactive ingredients listed.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The data shows fenugreek is possibly effective for sexual dysfunction, sexual arousal, painful periods (dysmenorrhea), and diabetes. This means there's some clinical evidence backing these uses, but the research isn't complete or definitive.
If you're considering this for one of those reasons, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether the current evidence matches your needs.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Fenugreek is generally well tolerated when eaten as food, but supplement doses can cause side effects — abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, upset stomach, gas, low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), and nausea are the most common. Rare but serious allergic reactions (swelling of the throat and mouth, airway tightening, shock) are possible.
The safety data advises against medicinal use during pregnancy because it may affect the uterus; if taken near delivery, the baby may have an unusual body odor. Evidence on boosting milk supply is limited — if you're breastfeeding and considering this, talk with your provider first.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this product, check with your pharmacist if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (warfarin, clopidogrel, aspirin), diabetes medications, metoprolol or other blood pressure drugs, theophylline, phenytoin, or sildenafil. Altogether, these interactions span 386 individual medications.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Methihills is for people interested in fenugreek's effects on blood sugar, sexual function, or menstrual pain — and who aren't taking blood thinners, diabetes drugs, heart medications, or seizure medications. If you're on any prescription, check it against this product before you start.
Talk with your pharmacist if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of allergies.

HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Methihills by Herbal Hills contains fenugreek in two forms, and this product does interact with a number of medications.
Both ingredients are the same plant (fenugreek) checked against the same drug interactions, so the concerns are identical.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The biggest issue is blood thinners (anticoagulants) and antiplatelet drugs like warfarin and clopidogrel. Fenugreek may add to their effects — warfarin users risk an increased INR, and clopidogrel's conversion to its active form may be hindered.
Both are Moderate severity.
You'll also want to check if you take diabetes medications, heart/blood pressure drugs (especially metoprolol), theophylline for breathing, phenytoin for seizures, or sildenafil for erectile dysfunction. Fenugreek may reduce blood sugar further, lower blood pressure more than intended, decrease theophylline and phenytoin levels enough to cut their effects, or reduce how well sildenafil works.
All are Moderate severity.

Methi extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, fenugreek might have additive effects when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Some of the constituents in fenugreek have antiplatelet effects in animal and in vitro research. However, common fenugreek products might not contain sufficient concentrations of these constituents for clinical effects. A clinical study in patients with coronary artery disease or diabetes shows that taking fenugreek seed powder 2.5 grams twice daily for 3 months does not affect platelet aggregation, fibrinolytic activity, or fibrinogen levels .
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, fenugreek seed might have additive hypoglycemic effects when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Clinical research shows that fenugreek seed can reduce fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes.
Clopidogrel (Plavix)
Theoretically, fenugreek seed might alter the clinical effects of clopidogrel by inhibiting its conversion to the active form.
Animal research shows that fenugreek seed 200 mg/kg daily for 14 days increases the maximum serum concentration of clopidogrel by 21%. It is unclear how this affects the pharmacokinetics of the active metabolite of clopidogrel; however, this study found that concomitant use of fenugreek seed and clopidogrel prolonged bleeding time by an additional 11%.
Metoprolol (Toprol)
Theoretically, fenugreek seed might have additive hypotensive effects when used with metoprolol.
Animal research shows that fenugreek seed 300 mg/kg daily for 2 weeks decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 9% and 11%, respectively, when administered alone, and by 15% and 22%, respectively, when given with metoprolol 10 mg/kg.
Phenytoin (Dilantin)
Theoretically, fenugreek might decrease plasma levels of phenytoin.
Animal research shows that taking fenugreek seeds for 1 week decreases maximum concentrations and the area under the curve of a single dose of phenytoin by 44% and 72%, respectively. This seems to be related to increased clearance. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Sildenafil (Viagra)
Theoretically, concurrent use of sildenafil and fenugreek might reduce levels and therapeutic effects of sildenafil.
Animal research shows that taking fenugreek seeds for 1 week reduces maximum concentrations and the area under the curve of a single dose of sildenafil by 27% and 48%, respectively. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Theophylline
Theoretically, fenugreek may reduce the levels and clinical effects of theophylline.
Animal research shows that fenugreek 50 grams daily for 7 days reduces the maximum serum concentration (Cmax) of theophylline by 28% and the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC) by 22%.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, fenugreek might have additive effects with warfarin and increase the international normalized ratio (INR).
Some fenugreek constituents have antiplatelet effects, although these might not be present in concentrations that are clinically significant. In one case report, a patient taking warfarin experienced an increased INR when starting to take fenugreek in combination with boldo.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Fenugreek may also have an additive effect on blood pressure-lowering medications. Studies on animals have shown that fenugreek seed can decrease both systolic and diastolic blood pressure by up to 22% when combined with metoprolol. Therefore, it is essential to monitor your blood pressure regularly if you are taking fenugreek and metoprolol together or any other antihypertensive drugs.
