HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Motherwort Mint Flavor by TerraVita

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

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 glycerite liquid extract. Motherwort is a plant traditionally used for bleeding and heart-related concerns.

The liquid extract form makes it easy to measure and take by mouth. The product also contains glycerin and mint flavor as inactive ingredients to improve taste and stability.

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 for 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 for these uses. If you're considering this for a specific health concern, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to see 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.

However, human safety data are limited, so caution is warranted for longer-term use. Doses larger than 3 grams can trigger uterine bleeding.

During pregnancy, motherwort is considered likely unsafe because it's traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus. Safety information during breastfeeding isn't on file.

If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.

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.

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 Mint Flavor is a single-ingredient liquid extract that's generally well tolerated for short-term use by healthy adults, though long-term safety data are limited. The main concern is its potential to boost sedation if you're already taking CNS depressants like sleep aids or anti-anxiety drugs — check your medications with the tool on this page before starting.

Avoid this product if you're pregnant. Discuss it with your own doctor or pharmacist to make sure it's right for you.
