HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Nasturtium Flower Essence by Flower Essence Services
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
Low disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: an infusion of Nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) flower at a 1:6000 concentration. The liquid base includes water and brandy as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for nasturtium flower essence in treating respiratory tract infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs) is insufficient to rate — we don't have reliable data on whether it actually works for these purposes. If you're considering it for either condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the science supports it for your situation.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Nasturtium is generally considered safe as a food, but concentrated extracts like this one have limited safety data. In large amounts taken by mouth, nasturtium can irritate your stomach and digestive tract, and very large amounts carry a risk of kidney damage (albuminuria).
Applied to the skin, the plant and its oils can cause skin irritation and allergic contact dermatitis in some people. During pregnancy, there isn't enough safety information — medicinal amounts are best avoided.
Safety during breastfeeding isn't well studied either, so caution is advised. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this is right for you if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredient we checked. That said, it's smart to confirm with your own pharmacist or doctor that it won't interfere with anything you're taking.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a single-ingredient flower essence with no documented medication interactions in our data, though that's not a guarantee none exist. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or take any regular medications, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
For respiratory or urinary infections, the evidence for whether it actually works is too weak to call it.
