HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mistletoe 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
Mistletoe Alcohol Free contains one active ingredient: a dry extract of European mistletoe herb. The extract is suspended in glycerin and water; there are no other active ingredients.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for mistletoe in cancer treatment is weak. For melanoma and head and neck cancer, research suggests it's probably not effective.
For breast cancer and gastric cancer, we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works or doesn't. There's also insufficient evidence on whether it helps with chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (loose stools caused by cancer treatment).
If you're considering it for any of these uses, that's a conversation to have with your oncologist.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Mistletoe in small oral doses appears generally well tolerated, though a full safety evaluation hasn't been completed. High doses can cause diarrhea, stomach cramps, and vomiting.
When injected, it may cause chills, fever, headache, nausea, or flu-like symptoms. The product label cautions that raw mistletoe is toxic—use only standardized products under medical supervision.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding carry real safety concerns: the facts advise against use during pregnancy due to potential toxicity, and there isn't enough safety data to recommend it while breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check before starting if you take blood pressure medication (risk of dangerously low blood pressure) or immunosuppressants (may reduce their effectiveness). Both are Moderate-severity interactions.
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.
Mistletoe extract is something to run past your pharmacist or doctor before starting, especially if you take blood pressure medication or immunosuppressants. The evidence for cancer treatment is limited.
It's not recommended in pregnancy or while nursing. Use only under medical supervision.
Educational only — not medical advice; always confirm with your pharmacist. Our editorial policy · How we use AI

Mistletoe Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Mistletoe Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra contains one active ingredient—European mistletoe extract—which has documented interactions with two major medication classes.
The most serious concern is with blood pressure medications (antihypertensives). Mistletoe may lower blood pressure further, raising the risk of dangerously low blood pressure (hypotension) if you're already taking drugs to control high blood pressure.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Second, if you take immunosuppressants—drugs that calm down your immune system, often used after transplants or for certain autoimmune conditions—mistletoe might work against them. Research suggests mistletoe stimulates immunity, which could reduce how well those medications work.
Both interactions are rated Moderate severity.
Altogether, these interactions span 287 individual medications. If you take any blood pressure medication or immunosuppressant, use the interaction checker below with your exact drug name before you start this product.
