HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Myrrh Leaf 450 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

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: myrrh, a resin from the myrrh tree traditionally used in herbal medicine. Each capsule delivers 450 mg.

The capsule itself is made from gelatin and water, which are inactive ingredients that help hold and deliver the myrrh.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient Myrrh product and its label doesn't state a use — see Myrrh's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for myrrh's effectiveness is limited. Our data shows it is likely ineffective for schistosomiasis (a parasitic infection).

For other uses — back pain, cancer, common cold, dental gum health around implants, and Crohn disease — there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works or doesn't. If you're considering this for a specific condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what the current research actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Myrrh

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.

Myrrh's oral safety hasn't been well studied, so caution is warranted when taking it by mouth. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy because myrrh is traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus — one reported case involved severe abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking myrrh, which resolved after she stopped.

Side effects reported with oral use include diarrhea (at doses of 2–4 grams) and, rarely, severe lower abdominal pain. When applied to skin, myrrh may occasionally cause a rash (dermatitis).

There isn't enough safety information for lactation, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Myrrh

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 — Myrrh.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 88 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.

Check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you take antidiabetes drugs (blood sugar medications) — myrrh may raise the risk of low blood sugar. Also flag it if you take warfarin (Coumadin) — myrrh may make it less effective at preventing clots.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

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.

Myrrh Leaf may be considered by people looking for traditional herbal support, but the evidence for most uses is weak or absent. If you take blood sugar medications or warfarin, you should check your specific drugs before starting — myrrh may increase low blood sugar risk or reduce warfarin's effectiveness.

Avoid it during pregnancy. Talk it over with your own doctor or pharmacist before adding this to your routine.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Myrrh Leaf 450 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 Myrrh Leaf if I'm pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against myrrh during pregnancy because it's traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus. There's even a report of severe abdominal pain in a pregnant woman taking it, which stopped when she quit. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant or planning to be.
What side effects might I experience?
The most common reported side effect is diarrhea, usually at higher doses (2–4 grams). Severe lower abdominal pain has been reported in one case, and if applied to skin, myrrh may cause a rash. If you experience abdominal pain or unusual symptoms, stop taking it and contact your doctor.
Is there evidence this actually works?
The evidence is quite limited. Myrrh is likely ineffective for schistosomiasis. For back pain, cancer, the common cold, gum health around dental implants, and Crohn disease, there simply isn't enough reliable research to say whether it helps. Talk with your doctor about what you're hoping to treat and whether myrrh is the right choice.
Is myrrh safe to take by mouth?
Oral safety hasn't been well studied, so we recommend caution. It's been used traditionally, but we don't have solid long-term safety data. If you have any concerns, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Can I breastfeed while taking this?
There isn't enough safety information to know. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're breastfeeding — they can help you decide whether it's right for you.
