HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Parasite Formula by BIOVEA

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 5 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (577 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

BIOVEA's Parasite Formula is a liquid blend with 5 active ingredients. The formula contains bayberry, organic clove, green black walnuts, and quassia—each traditionally used for various purposes.

We could not check fresh garrya as we hold no data for it. The product also contains grain alcohol and deionized water as inactive ingredients.

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: anti-parasitic and digestive support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Diarrhea, Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Lice, intestinal parasites, intestinal worms — and 2 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Clove is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Clove is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Dyspepsia, Flatulence.
  • Also on file: Quassia is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Lice.

The evidence base for this product is limited. Clove has possibly effective evidence for ventilator-associated pneumonia, but for cough, pain, and indigestion the evidence is insufficient.

Black walnut, bayberry, and quassia all have insufficient evidence for their respective uses. We do not hold effectiveness data on fresh garrya.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bayberry Clove Black Walnut Quassia

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 4 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Several ingredients in this formula carry safety cautions. Bayberry has limited safety data and may irritate the stomach in large amounts; the safety data advises against it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Clove is well tolerated as a food spice but concentrated doses can be irritating or toxic, especially in children—even small amounts of clove oil can cause serious effects. Black walnut has limited human data and is best avoided in pregnancy; it may cause gastrointestinal upset due to tannins and can trigger allergic reactions in people with tree nut allergies.

Quassia may irritate the digestive tract at medicinal doses and is likely unsafe in pregnancy. The safety data advises against quassia during breastfeeding as well.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Bayberry Clove Black Walnut Quassia

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?
  • 2 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Clove, Quassia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 1,055 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 before taking if you use antidiabetes drugs (clove and quassia may lower blood sugar), diuretics (quassia may worsen potassium loss), drugs metabolized by your liver's CYP2D6, CYP1A2, CYP3A4, or CYP2C9 enzymes (clove may raise their levels), digoxin or other heart medications (quassia may affect them), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin (clove may increase bleeding risk), or acid-reducing drugs like omeprazole, ranitidine, or cimetidine (quassia may reduce their effectiveness). Discuss with your pharmacist or doctor before combining.

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 product combines traditional herbal ingredients with limited modern evidence and notable safety concerns, particularly around digestive irritation and pregnancy/breastfeeding use. If you take antidiabetes drugs, blood thinners, diuretics, heart medications, or acid-reducing drugs, you'll want to check your specific medications before starting.

organic Clove7 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
organic Clove full monograph & interactions

Quassia6 drug types · 198 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

In animals, quassia extract reduced levels of fasting glucose. Theoretically, quassia might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs. This might increase the risk of hypoglycemia in some patients. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.
Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, metformin (Glucophage), pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, concomitant use with cardiac medications might increase the risk of therapeutic and adverse effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Overuse of quassia might compound diuretic-induced potassium loss. There is some concern that people taking quassia along with potassium depleting diuretics might have an increased risk for hypokalemia. Initiation of potassium supplementation or an increase in potassium supplement dose may be necessary for some patients.
Some diuretics that can deplete potassium include chlorothiazide (Diuril), chlorthalidone (Thalitone), furosemide (Lasix), and hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, Hydrodiuril, Microzide), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antacids

Theoretically, due to reports that quassia increases stomach acid, quassia might decrease the effectiveness of antacids.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
H2-Blockers

Theoretically, due to reports that quassia increases stomach acid, quassia might decrease the effectiveness of H2-blockers. The H2 blockers include cimetidine (Tagamet), ranitidine (Zantac), nizatidine (Axid), and famotidine (Pepcid).

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Proton Pump Inhibitors (Ppis)

Theoretically, due to reports that quassia increases stomach acid, quassia might decrease the effectiveness of PPIs. PPIs include omeprazole (Prilosec), lansoprazole (Prevacid), rabeprazole (Aciphex), pantoprazole (Protonix), and esomeprazole (Nexium).

Parasite Formula by BIOVEA: Common Questions

Does Parasite Formula by BIOVEA interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Parasite Formula has a known interaction with 1,054 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Parasite Formula contains 5 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 during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
No—the safety data advises against this product both during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Bayberry, black walnut, and quassia all carry pregnancy and/or lactation cautions based on insufficient safety information. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or nursing.
What's clove supposed to do in this formula?
Clove is a traditional herbal ingredient included in parasite formulas. The evidence shows it may be helpful for ventilator-associated pneumonia, but evidence for other uses like treating parasites, cough, or digestive upset is not established in our data.
Can this cause stomach upset?
Yes. Bayberry, clove, and quassia can all cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, and vomiting—especially at medicinal doses. Bayberry and black walnut contain tannins that may particularly upset the stomach. Start with a low dose if you do take it, and stop if you experience nausea or stomach pain.
Is this safe if I have a tree nut allergy?
This product contains green black walnuts, which are tree nuts and a major food allergen. Tree nuts can cause allergic reactions in sensitive people, so you should avoid this product if you have a tree nut allergy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're unsure about your allergy status.
What does black walnut do?
Black walnut is included as a traditional herbal ingredient. Evidence for its use in treating coronary heart disease or wound healing is insufficient. The parts used in supplements (leaf, bark, hull) contain tannins that may cause gastrointestinal upset.
