HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mugwort Herb 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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: Mugwort Herb Glycerite Liquid Extract. It's a liquid extract of mugwort prepared with glycerin, an inactive ingredient used as a sweetener and preservative.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for mugwort isn't established in the data we hold. Our monograph shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for anxiety, epilepsy, high blood pressure, insomnia, or intestinal parasite infection — the conditions it's traditionally used for.
That means the studies either aren't there yet, aren't strong enough, or are too small to draw firm conclusions.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Mugwort can trigger allergic reactions, especially if you're sensitive to ragweed or related plants — symptoms can range from asthma and a runny nose to rash or, rarely, anaphylaxis. A high intake has been linked to mania in one reported case, tied to a compound called thujone; levels of thujone in mugwort are usually low but can vary.
Mugwort is considered likely unsafe in pregnancy because it's traditionally been used to stimulate the uterus and menstruation. There isn't enough safety information to recommend it while breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we checked. Run your exact medications through the search tool on this page before you start, or ask your pharmacist.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
This product has no documented interactions with medications, but the evidence for whether it actually works for its traditional uses — anxiety, sleep, seizures, blood pressure, or parasites — isn't established yet. Avoid it if you're pregnant, are breastfeeding, or have a ragweed allergy.
Talk to your pharmacist if you're considering it.
