HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Nine Flavor Tea by Health Concerns

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 27, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 9 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Herbal Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,945 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Nine Flavor Tea contains nine active herbal ingredients: Wild Yam, Dong Quai root extract, Glehnia root extract, Isatis root extract, Asiatic Dogwood fruit extract, Poria sclerotium extract, Ophiopogon Root Extract, Rehmannia root extract, and Asian Water Plantain Rhizome Extract. These are delivered in capsule form as part of a proprietary blend.

The inactive ingredients are hypromellose and rice bran.

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 its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Psoriasis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Isatis) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Rehmannia) (Natural Medicines).

Evidence for this product's effectiveness is mixed and limited. Rehmannia root extract shows possibly effective evidence for chronic kidney disease.

Wild yam is rated possibly ineffective for menopausal symptoms. Isatis root extract is rated possibly effective for psoriasis.

The remaining ingredients and most other conditions listed lack sufficient reliable evidence to rate them — the data we hold doesn't establish whether they work for their traditional uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Wild Yam Dong Quai Isatis Poria Mushroom Rehmannia Asian Water Plantain

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 4 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 6 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Most of these ingredients are generally well tolerated in the short term, though long-term safety data are limited. Common mild side effects from wild yam include fever, headache, upset stomach, and vomiting.

Dong quai may cause burping and flatulence, and it can increase sun sensitivity to skin. Poria mushroom extract rarely causes allergic reactions.

Avoid this product during pregnancy — not enough safety data exist for any of the ingredients, and dong quai is rated possibly unsafe. Similarly, avoid it while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety information.

One rare case report linked a combination product containing wild yam, dong quai, red clover, and black cohosh to temporary vision loss; it's unclear which ingredient, if any, was responsible.

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 5 of the 6 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Poria Mushroom, Asian Water Plantain, Dong Quai, Wild Yam, Rehmannia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 988 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 warfarin and other blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (Major concern with dong quai), then blood pressure medications, diabetes drugs, estrogens (hormone therapy), sedatives, anticholinergic drugs, and cholinergic drugs. If you take any of these, confirm with your doctor or pharmacist that it's okay to add Nine Flavor Tea.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're on a blood thinner like warfarin, take a diabetes or blood pressure medication, or use hormone therapy, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before trying this product — the interactions could affect how your drugs work or increase side effects. The evidence supporting its use is limited for most traditional claims.

This is not a product for pregnancy or breastfeeding. For anyone else considering it, check your full medication list first.

Nephrotoxic Drugs

Studies on animals have shown that Asian water plantain extract, which contains triterpenoids, is generally safe at doses up to 1440 mg/kg orally daily and does not cause harm to the body. However, using a higher dose of the extract, at 33.3 grams/kg orally for 60 days, has been linked to kidney issues, as indicated by increased blood urea nitrogen levels, and enlargement of the liver and kidneys. Additionally, two components of Asian water plantain, alisol A and alisol B, when given in doses of 400 mg/kg daily and 500 mg/kg daily respectively for 6 months, have been found to increase the production of markers that suggest potential kidney damage from certain medications. While these findings suggest there is very little risk that Asian water plantain may interact with drugs that are harmful to the kidneys, caution is still advised if combined with known nephrotoxic drugs (source: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28408883/)

Dong Quai root extract3 drug types · 163 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Dong quai may increase the risk of bleeding when used with warfarin.
Case reports suggest that concomitant use of dong quai with warfarin can increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin and increase the risk of bleeding. In one case, after 4 weeks of taking dong quai 565 mg once or twice daily, the international normalized ratio (INR) increased to 4.9. The INR normalized 4 weeks after discontinuation of dong quai.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, dong quai may increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Animal studies suggest that dong quai has antithrombin activity and inhibits platelet aggregation due to its coumarin components. Additionally, some case reports in humans suggest that dong quai can increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. However, clinical research in healthy adults shows that taking 1 gram of dong quai root daily for 3 weeks does not significantly inhibit platelet aggregation or cause bleeding. Until more is known, use dong quai with caution in patients taking antiplatelet/anticoagulant drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Estrogens

Theoretically, dong quai may reduce the effects of estrogens.
Dong quai has estrogenic effects. Theoretically, concomitant use of large amounts of dong quai might interfere with hormone replacement therapy due to competition for estrogen receptors.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Nine Flavor Tea by Health Concerns: Common Questions

Does Nine Flavor Tea by Health Concerns interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Nine Flavor Tea has a known interaction with 988 medications, including 2 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Nine Flavor Tea contains 9 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 this while I'm on hormone replacement therapy?
Not without checking first. Wild yam and dong quai both have estrogenic and anti-estrogenic effects, so they may interfere with your hormone therapy. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before adding this product.
Does it work for menopause symptoms?
Wild yam is rated possibly ineffective for menopausal symptoms in our data, so evidence doesn't support it for that use. The other ingredients don't have established effectiveness for menopause either.
Is this safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
No. There isn't enough safety data for any of these ingredients during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so they're best avoided. Talk to your doctor or midwife if you're considering a supplement during pregnancy.
What are the most common side effects?
Wild yam can cause fever, headache, upset stomach, and vomiting. Dong quai may cause burping and flatulence. Both are generally well tolerated, but long-term safety hasn't been well studied.
What does rehmannia do in this blend?
Rehmannia root extract is possibly effective for chronic kidney disease according to our data. It's traditionally used as part of herbal formulas, though evidence for other uses is limited.
I'm on a sedative — is this product okay for me?
Poria mushroom extract in this blend may enhance the effects of sedatives, so you could feel drowsier or experience stronger side effects. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it.
