HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Baby Teething Oil by Maty's

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 4 active ingredients.
  • “Maty's Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (90 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Maty's Organic Baby Teething Oil contains 4 ingredients. The active components are clove oil, lavender oil, and stevia extract powder, plus MCT oil.

Clove oil and lavender oil are the primary botanicals traditionally used for teething comfort. Stevia extract powder is used as a sweetener.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: teething support for babies.
  • We looked for evidence on: Toothache, Oral mucositis, Canker sores, oral discomfort, gum soreness, teething pain — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Clove is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Oral mucositis (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lavender is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Canker sores, Toothache.

The evidence we hold shows clove oil has possibly effective data for ventilator-associated pneumonia (a serious lung infection in hospitalized patients on breathing machines), but no established evidence for teething pain or cough. Lavender oil is possibly effective for menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea) but possibly ineffective for cancer-related pain, and the evidence is insufficient to rate it for hair loss, anxiety before procedures, or cancer-related fatigue.

Stevia's effectiveness for diabetes, high blood pressure, or weight loss is not established in our data. The product's actual benefits for baby teething specifically are not documented in the effectiveness ratings we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Clove Lavender Stevia

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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Clove oil is generally well tolerated when used as a food spice, but concentrated clove oil and supplements can be irritating or toxic in larger amounts; doses of only 5–10 mL have caused toxicity in children, including CNS depression, seizures, and in rare cases liver failure. Topically, clove is generally well tolerated, though burning, contact dermatitis, itching, and mucous membrane irritation can occur.

Lavender oil seems well tolerated when applied to skin or taken orally in normal amounts, though allergic contact dermatitis and rare cases of hormonal changes in young males using lavender oil have been reported; the essential oil is toxic if swallowed. Stevia and its purified extracts appear well tolerated in typical food amounts, though minor side effects like headache, dizziness, nausea, and muscle aches can occur and usually resolve after the first week.

Safety data for medicinal or supplement doses of both clove and lavender is limited, so use under your healthcare provider's guidance.

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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Clove, Stevia, Lavender.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,194 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.

If your child takes blood sugar medications (antidiabetes drugs), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, medications processed by liver enzymes CYP2D6, CYP1A2, CYP3A4, or CYP2C9, sedatives or sleep aids (CNS depressants), or topical ibuprofen, double-check with your pediatrician or pharmacist before using this product. Clove oil's enzyme interactions have not been confirmed in humans but are based on lab findings.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a topical teething oil for babies containing clove and lavender. If your child takes any medications—especially blood sugar drugs, blood thinners, or sedatives—check with your pediatrician or pharmacist before using it.

Even though it's applied to the gums rather than swallowed, absorption can occur. Keep it away from your child's mouth and hands if they might swallow it, since clove oil in small amounts can be toxic in children.

Talk with your child's doctor about whether this product is right for your situation.

Clove oil7 drug types · 977 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of clove extracts with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical and laboratory research suggest that polyphenol extracts from clove flower buds might lower blood glucose levels. Dosing adjustments for insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents may be necessary when taken with clove. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, concomitant use of clove may increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that eugenol, the principal constituent of clove, can inhibit CYP1A2 in a dose-dependent manner,. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, concomitant use of clove may increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro research shows that eugenol, the principal constituent of clove, inhibits CYP2C9 in a dose-dependent manner. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, concomitant use of clove may increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research shows that eugenol, the principal constituent of clove, can inhibit CYP2D6 in a dose-dependent manner. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, concomitant use of clove may increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that eugenol, the principal constituent of clove, can inhibit CYP3A4 in a dose-dependent manner. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, clove oil may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that eugenol, a constituent of clove, has antiplatelet activity. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Ibuprofen (Advil, Others)

Theoretically, topical application of clove oil with ibuprofen might increase the absorption and side effects of topical ibuprofen.
Laboratory research shows that topical application of clove oil increases the absorption of topical ibuprofen. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Clove oil full monograph & interactions

Stevia extract powder3 drug types · 259 drugs

Lithium

Theoretically, stevia might decrease clearance and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that stevia extracts might have diuretic activity. Theoretically, increased reabsorption of lithium along with sodium might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, stevia might increase the risk for hypoglycemia when combined with antidiabetes drugs.
Preliminary clinical research in patients with type 2 diabetes suggests that taking a single dose of stevia extract 1000 mg reduces postprandial blood glucose levels when taken with a meal. However, other clinical research in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes suggests that taking stevioside 250 mg three times daily does not significantly affect blood glucose levels or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) after three months of treatment.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, combining stevia or stevia constituents with antihypertensive agents might increase the risk of hypotension.
Stevia extract and stevioside might lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension. However, other clinical research suggests that stevioside does not significantly lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Stevia extract powder full monograph & interactions

Lavender Oil1 drug type · 248 drugs

Cns Depressants

Theoretically, lavender might potentiate the therapeutic effects and adverse effects of CNS depressants.
Laboratory research suggests that lavender has sedative effects. However, clinical studies in patients taking oral lavender oil (Silexan) 160 mg for 10 weeks or taking lavender flower powder 1 gram daily for 2 months have not reported side effects of drowsiness, sedation, or sleepiness. There is still some concern that higher doses or different preparations of lavender might have additive effects with CNS depressant medications.

Organic Baby Teething Oil by Maty's: Common Questions

Does Organic Baby Teething Oil by Maty's interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Baby Teething Oil has a known interaction with 1,193 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Baby Teething Oil contains 4 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.
Is this safe to use on a baby's gums if my child takes medication?
It depends on what your child takes. Clove oil in this product may interact with blood sugar drugs, blood thinners, several heart and brain medications, and sedatives. Talk with your pediatrician or pharmacist about your child's specific medications before using it.
What should I watch for if I use this product on my baby?
Watch for burning, redness, itching, or any mouth sores where you apply it. Keep the product out of your baby's reach—if swallowed, even small amounts of clove oil can cause serious problems like CNS depression or seizures in young children.
Can I use this while I'm breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for lavender oil during breastfeeding, and clove oil is rated as likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. However, that rating doesn't cover all medicinal uses. Check with your doctor or lactation consultant before using it.
Does this actually help with teething pain?
The effectiveness ratings we hold don't cover teething specifically. The product contains clove and lavender, which are traditionally used for comfort, but we don't have clinical evidence for this particular use in our data.
What are the inactive ingredients in this product?
This product contains no inactive ingredients listed on file—it's made up only of the four active components: the Maty's Proprietary Blend, MCT oil, clove oil, lavender oil, and stevia extract powder.
