HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Oregano Leaf Chocolate 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: oregano leaf glycerite liquid extract — oregano leaves prepared as a liquid extract in glycerin. That's it for actives.

The inactive ingredients are glycerin (the carrier) and chocolate flavor.

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 Oregano product and its label doesn't state a use — see Oregano'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 oregano isn't established in our data. Effectiveness ratings are insufficient for acne, bronchitis, asthma, headache, and upper respiratory tract infection — meaning there isn't enough reliable research to say whether it works for any of these.

If you're considering oregano for a health concern, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the current evidence actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Oregano

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.

Oregano is generally well tolerated when you use it in normal food amounts. As a concentrated supplement like this one, there's less research on how safe it is in larger doses.

The most common side effect from oral use is stomach upset. Rarely, people sensitive to oregano have had serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis — symptoms like swelling of the lips and tongue, difficulty breathing, and a drop in blood pressure.

If you have a known allergy to oregano or plants in the mint family (like thyme), avoid this product. During pregnancy, stick to food amounts of oregano; medicinal or supplement doses aren't advised based on safety data.

While breastfeeding, safety hasn't been established, so talk with your doctor before using this supplement.

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 — Oregano.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 208 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 your medications if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin, aspirin, or clopidogrel) — oregano may increase bleeding risk — or diabetes medications, where it could raise the risk of low blood sugar. These are Moderate severity interactions.

No other medication types were found in our data for this ingredient.
