HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Motherwort 250 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Aug 20, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: motherwort (250 mg per capsule). Motherwort is an herbal plant traditionally used to support various health concerns.

The capsule is made with gelatin and water as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Motherwort's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Motherwort for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Bleeding — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence supporting motherwort is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for bleeding.

For anxiety, amenorrhea (absent periods), asthma, and alcohol use disorder, the evidence is insufficient — meaning we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works. If you're considering it for one of those conditions, talk with your doctor about whether the current evidence supports its use for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Motherwort

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Motherwort appears to be generally well tolerated when taken by mouth. The most common side effects are diarrhea and stomach irritation.

If you take more than 3 grams, there's a risk of uterine bleeding. Human safety data overall are limited, so caution is warranted, especially if you plan to use it long-term.

The safety data advise against motherwort in pregnancy — it's traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus and is rated likely unsafe. There isn't enough information on file about use during breastfeeding; talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what's right for you if you're nursing or planning to become pregnant.

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Motherwort.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 248 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.

Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on any CNS depressants — sedatives, sleep aids, anti-anxiety medications, or opioid pain relievers. Motherwort can deepen sedation, so combining it with these requires their sign-off.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Motherwort may be worth considering if you're looking for herbal support for bleeding, but evidence for other uses is thin. The main caution is its interaction with sedating medications and its effect in pregnancy.

If you take any CNS depressants or sleep aids, or if you're pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

Does Motherwort 250 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Motherwort 250 mg has a known interaction with 248 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Motherwort 250 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 motherwort if I'm pregnant?
No — the safety data advise against it. Motherwort is traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus and is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy. Talk with your doctor before taking any supplement during pregnancy.
What are the side effects of motherwort?
When taken by mouth, the most common side effects are diarrhea and stomach irritation. Doses over 3 grams carry a risk of uterine bleeding. If you apply it to skin, it can cause contact dermatitis or photosensitivity (a reaction to sunlight).
Does motherwort actually work for anxiety?
The evidence isn't clear enough to say. Motherwort is rated as having insufficient reliable evidence for anxiety, meaning we don't have solid data proving it works. If anxiety is your concern, discuss treatment options with your doctor.
Is motherwort safe to use long-term?
Human safety data are limited, so caution is recommended, especially for long-term use. If you're thinking of taking it regularly, check in with your doctor or pharmacist first.
What is motherwort used for?
Motherwort is an herbal plant traditionally used for several purposes. The strongest evidence we have is for bleeding, where it's rated possibly effective. For anxiety, amenorrhea, asthma, and alcohol use disorder, evidence is insufficient.
