HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Passion Flower Extract by Micro Ingredients

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.

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: organic passion flower extract. Passion flower is a plant traditionally used to ease anxiety and sleep trouble.

There are no inactive ingredients listed for this powder.

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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: supports healthy mood and mind.
  • We looked for evidence on: Stress, Insomnia, Pre-procedural anxiety, anxiety, nervousness, sleep quality.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Passion Flower is rated "Possibly Effective" for Pre-procedural anxiety (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Passion Flower is rated "Possibly Effective" for Insomnia.
  • Also on file: Passion Flower is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Stress.

Passion flower extract is possibly effective for insomnia and pre-procedural anxiety — that means the evidence suggests it may help, but it's not definitive. For alcohol use disorder and benzoidazepine withdrawal, the evidence is too thin to rate.

If you're thinking about it for sleep or anxiety before a procedure, there's reasonable support, but talk with your doctor or pharmacist about how it fits into your plan.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Passion Flower

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.

Short-term, passion flower is generally well tolerated, but drowsiness is common — don't drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you. Confusion and dizziness can also happen, as can sensitivity reactions in rare cases.

One severe case has been reported involving nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, and heart rhythm changes after very high doses; all symptoms reversed when the supplement was stopped. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy due to lack of safety data and possible effects on the uterus.

There isn't enough safety information while breastfeeding — talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it if you're nursing.

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 — Passion Flower.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 837 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 take this, double-check any sedative medications (like lorazepam or sleeping pills) — Moderate interaction. Also run it by your pharmacist if you take heart or blood pressure drugs, statins, immunosuppressants, or any other prescription medication, as Minor interactions are documented with multiple common drugs.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Passion flower may help with insomnia or pre-procedural anxiety, and it's generally well tolerated short-term. If you take any sedative medication or other prescription drugs, check with your pharmacist before starting — the interactions are real.

Cns Depressants

Concomitant use of passion flower with sedative drugs might cause additive effects and side effects.
Research in animals and humans shows that passion flower has sedative effects which can be additive when used with sedative medications like lorazepam.

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

Theoretically, passion flower might decrease the effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that passion flower can induce CYP3A4 enzymes, albeit to a much lower degree than rifampin, a known CYP3A4 inducer.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Organic Anion-Transporting Polypeptide Substrates (Oatp)

Theoretically, passion flower might reduce the bioavailability of OATP2B1 and OATP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that the passion flower constituents apigenin and vitexin inhibit OATP2B1 and OATP1A2. This inhibition may be dose-dependent. One specific high-flavonoid passion flower extract (Valverde) seems to inhibit OATP2B1 and OATP1A2, while another extract with a lower flavonoid concentration (Arkocaps) shows less potent inhibition. OATPs are responsible for the uptake of drugs and other compounds into the body; however, the specific activities of OATP2B1 and OATP1A2 are not well characterized.

Organic Passion Flower Extract by Micro Ingredients: Common Questions

Does Organic Passion Flower Extract by Micro Ingredients interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Passion Flower Extract has a known interaction with 836 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Passion Flower Extract 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.
Will passion flower make me drowsy?
Yes, drowsiness is common. The supplement itself has sedative effects, which is why you shouldn't drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you. This effect gets stronger if you're also taking sedative medications.
Can I take this while pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy due to lack of safety data and possible effects on the uterus. Talk with your doctor if you're pregnant and interested in natural anxiety or sleep support.
Is it safe to breastfeed while using this?
There isn't enough safety information to know, so it's best avoided while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're nursing.
Does this actually work for sleep?
The evidence says it's possibly effective for insomnia — that means research suggests it may help, but the evidence isn't rock-solid. It's worth trying if your doctor or pharmacist thinks it's appropriate for you.
What are the most common side effects?
Confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, and sensitivity reactions are the most common. Most people tolerate it well short-term, but if you feel confused or very dizzy, stop and talk with your pharmacist.
Can I use this before a medical procedure?
Passion flower is possibly effective for pre-procedural anxiety. Talk with your doctor or the medical team handling your procedure first — they need to know what you're taking, especially because drowsiness is common.
