HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Parsley Root Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita

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

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: parsley root glycerite liquid extract. Parsley root has been traditionally used in herbal medicine, though the evidence supporting its effectiveness for specific health claims isn't established in our data.

The formula also includes two inactive ingredients — glycerin (a common preservative and sweetener in liquid supplements) and vanilla flavor — to make the liquid palatable.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Parsley product and its label doesn't state a use — see Parsley's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

We don't have established evidence in our data for parsley root's effectiveness for urinary tract infections, melasma (dark skin patches), osteoarthritis, nonmelanoma skin cancer, or insect bites. The ratings we hold are all insufficient reliable evidence to rate.

If you're considering this product for one of these uses, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what the current research actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Parsley

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.

Parsley is generally well tolerated when you use food amounts or low to moderate doses. However, concentrated extracts like this one — and especially large amounts — may not be safe.

The facts here note caution around concentrated supplements due to limited safety data, and serious adverse effects (though rare) are reported with very high doses: these include hallucinations, hemolytic anemia (a breakdown of red blood cells), low blood pressure (hypotension), liver damage, kidney damage, and a rare clotting disorder. Parsley also contains apiole, a constituent that becomes unsafe above 10 grams and can cause hemolytic anemia and blood clotting problems at high doses.

In pregnancy, the safety data advises against medicinal or large amounts — stick to normal food amounts only. For breastfeeding, safety data isn't on file.

If you're pregnant or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this supplement.

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 — Parsley.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 443 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 taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin (Coumadin), blood thinners or anti-clotting drugs, diabetes medications, diuretics (water pills), pentobarbital (Nembutal) or other sedatives, sirolimus (Rapamune), aspirin, or any medications processed by the liver enzyme CYP1A2. Parsley root can theoretically affect all of these and may require dose adjustments or closer monitoring.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take any prescription medications, check your specific drugs with the search tool on this page or talk with your pharmacist before starting it.

Pregnant people should avoid medicinal amounts. Your doctor or pharmacist can help you decide if this product is right for you.

Parsley Root Glycerite Liquid Extract8 drug types · 443 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, parsley might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley has antiplatelet effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, parsley might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley might decrease blood glucose. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

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

Theoretically, parsley might increase serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Laboratory research suggests that parsley can inhibit CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, parsley might enhance or interfere with the effects of diuretic drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley seed extract increases urine elimination. Parsley leaf and root might also interfere with diuretic therapy due their purported aquaretic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, parsley might increase the duration of pentobarbital effects.
Animal research suggests that parsley juice prolongs the action of pentobarbital, perhaps by decreasing cytochrome P450 levels. It is not known if this occurs in humans or if this applies to other barbiturates or sedatives.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sirolimus (Rapamune)

Theoretically, large quantities of parsley might increase sirolimus levels.
In one case report, an adult female with a history of kidney transplant presented with elevated blood sirolimus levels, approximately 4-7 times greater than previous measures, after daily consumption of a juice containing approximately 30 grams of parsley for 7 days. Sirolimus levels returned to normal a week after the parsley juice was discontinued.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, large amounts of parsley leaf and root might decrease the effects of warfarin.
Parlsey contains vitamin K.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Aspirin

Theoretically, aspirin might increase the severity of allergic reactions to parsley.
In one case, severe urticaria and swelling were reported after taking aspirin with parsley in an individual with a known mild parsley allergy.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Parsley Root Vanilla Flavor 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.
What is parsley root glycerite?
It's a liquid extract of parsley root made with glycerin, a common preservative and sweetener used in herbal supplements. The glycerin helps preserve the herb and makes it palatable with the added vanilla flavor.
Is this safe to take in large amounts?
No. While food amounts are generally well tolerated, concentrated extracts at large doses aren't considered safe. Very high doses can cause serious problems like hemolytic anemia, low blood pressure, and liver or kidney damage. Stick to the dosage on the label and don't exceed it.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against medicinal or large amounts of parsley in pregnancy. If you're pregnant, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before considering this product.
Why is there a caution about aspirin?
Parsley can occasionally trigger allergic reactions, and in one documented case, taking aspirin with parsley in someone with a known mild parsley allergy caused severe swelling and hives. If you're allergic to parsley, avoid this product and be cautious combining aspirin with parsley.
Will this work for [urinary tract infections / osteoarthritis / melasma]?
We don't have reliable evidence in our data to say it works for these conditions. The evidence ratings we hold for parsley root are all insufficient. Talk with your doctor about what treatments are proven for your specific health concern.
