HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Nettle Leaf 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 Sep 3, 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: nettle (also called stinging nettle), a plant traditionally used to support various health areas. It's formulated as a liquid extract in cane alcohol and distilled water.

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 Stinging Nettle's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Stinging Nettle 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 ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Diabetes — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence we hold shows nettle is possibly effective for diabetes. For hay fever (allergic rhinitis), anemia, asthma, benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), and gingivitis, the reliable evidence isn't established enough for us to rate it — which means more research is needed before we can say how well it works for those uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Stinging Nettle

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.

When taken by mouth as directed, nettle is generally well tolerated, though the quality and evidence vary between products. The most common side effects are constipation and diarrhea.

Rare case reports describe liver injury after using nettle-containing herbal blends, though nettle was one of multiple ingredients. If you touch the raw plant itself, you may get itching, rash, and stinging on your skin — sometimes lasting over 12 hours.

Pregnancy: the safety data advises against use because of traditional concerns about effects on the uterus and not enough safety information. Breastfeeding: safety hasn't been established, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it while nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Stinging Nettle

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 — Stinging Nettle.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 164 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 you start, double-check your medications if you take any blood thinners (like warfarin), diabetes drugs, water pills (diuretics), or lithium. These have moderate interactions with nettle and may need dose adjustments or monitoring from your doctor or pharmacist.

The bottom line

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

Nettle is worth considering if you have diabetes and want to explore herbal support alongside your current plan — but it's not the choice for you if you take blood thinners, diabetes drugs, diuretics, or lithium without clearing it first with your doctor or pharmacist. Pregnant or breastfeeding?

Discuss this with your healthcare provider before starting.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, stinging nettle might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Clinical research shows that stinging nettle might decrease blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, combining stinging nettle with diuretic drugs may have additive effects.
Animal research suggests that the above ground parts and roots of stinging nettle may have a diuretic effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, stinging nettle might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that stinging nettle has diuretic and natriuretic properties, which could alter the excretion of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

There is some concern that stinging nettle might decrease the effects of anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin.
Stinging nettle contains a significant amount of vitamin K. When taken in large quantities, this might interfere with the activity of warfarin.

Organic Nettle Leaf by Ra Herbals: Common Questions

Does Organic Nettle Leaf by Ra Herbals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Nettle Leaf has a known interaction with 164 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Nettle Leaf 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?
No — the safety data advises against nettle in pregnancy because of traditional concerns about effects on the uterus and insufficient safety information. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about safe alternatives.
Is nettle safe to breastfeed on?
Safety while breastfeeding hasn't been established, so it's best to avoid it until you've talked with your doctor or pharmacist to make sure it's right for you.
What are the most common side effects?
When taken by mouth, constipation and diarrhea are the most common. If you touch the raw plant, you may get itching, rash, and stinging on your skin.
Does nettle actually help with diabetes?
Research suggests nettle is possibly effective for diabetes — clinical studies show it might lower blood glucose levels. That said, it should only be part of your plan and used alongside your regular diabetes care and under your doctor's oversight.
Will this help my hay fever or asthma?
For hay fever and asthma, the reliable evidence isn't strong enough yet for us to say how well nettle works. More research is needed before we can rate it for those uses.
