HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic California Poppy by Ra Herbals

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 1 active ingredient.

This product contains one active ingredient: California poppy, a plant traditionally used for relaxation and sleep support. The liquid formulation also includes cane alcohol and distilled water as inactive ingredients that carry and preserve the herb.

Does it work?

Insufficient 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
Insufficient

There isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to rate this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: California poppy for anxiety and sleep support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Anxiety, Insomnia, Nocturnal enuresis, Restlessness, Nervous tension.
  • The closest evidence on file: California Poppy is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Anxiety (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: California Poppy is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Insomnia, Nocturnal enuresis.

The evidence on California poppy for anxiety, insomnia, and bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) is insufficient — we don't have reliable data to say whether it works for these purposes. If you're considering it for one of these reasons, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to see if the available evidence fits your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient California Poppy

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.

California poppy is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but human safety data are limited, so we don't know much about long-term effects. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

When California poppy was used in combination with hawthorn and magnesium in reported cases, some people experienced muscular stiffness, morning fatigue, or nausea — though it's unclear whether these came from California poppy itself, the other ingredients, or the combination.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient California Poppy

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 — California Poppy.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 248 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 you take any CNS depressants — sedating antihistamines, benzodiazepines, opioids, sleep aids, or any other drug that makes you drowsy — check with your pharmacist or doctor before adding this product. California poppy may boost that sedative effect.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with insufficient evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Consider this product if you're looking for a traditional herbal approach to anxiety or sleep, but understand that the evidence for how well it works is limited. It's important to check your medications first — especially sedating drugs — with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, skip this product and talk with your healthcare provider about what's safe for you.

Organic California Poppy by Ra Herbals: Common Questions

Does Organic California Poppy by Ra Herbals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic California Poppy has a known interaction with 248 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic California Poppy 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 this while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advise against it. There isn't enough information about California poppy in pregnancy or while breastfeeding to say it's safe, so talk with your doctor or midwife before using it.
What are the most common side effects?
There's limited information on side effects from California poppy alone. When it was used with hawthorn and magnesium in some reports, people noted muscular stiffness, morning fatigue, and nausea — but it's not clear which ingredient caused them.
Does this product actually help with sleep or anxiety?
The evidence isn't established yet. We don't have reliable data saying California poppy works for insomnia, anxiety, or bedwetting, so we can't make that claim.
Can I take this if I'm already on a sleep medication?
Not without checking first. California poppy can enhance sedation, so combining it with sleep aids could make you too drowsy. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before mixing them.
Is this product safe for long-term use?
California poppy is considered mild for short-term use, but we have limited human safety data for longer periods, so we don't know what happens with extended use. If you're thinking about taking it regularly, discuss that with your healthcare provider.
