HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Pink Yarrow Flower Essence by Flower Essence Services
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
Low disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: an infusion of Achillea millefolium (yarrow) at a 1:6000 ratio. It's made with water and brandy as inactive ingredients (the brandy acts as a preservative).
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for yarrow in this form isn't established in the data we hold. Effectiveness for tonsillitis, wound healing, eczema (atopic dermatitis), painful periods (dysmenorrhea), and yeast infections (vaginal candidiasis) is rated insufficient reliable evidence, meaning we don't have solid data yet on whether it works for these uses.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Taken by mouth or applied inside the vagina, yarrow is generally well tolerated, though allergic reactions can occur. When applied to skin, it can cause dermatitis, hives (urticaria), or sun-related skin reactions due to compounds called sesquiterpene lactones; it may also trigger airway symptoms like rhinitis or asthma from handling the flowers.
Yarrow is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy because it may affect the uterus — do not use it if you're pregnant. While breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety information, so avoid it and talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take lithium, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — it may increase lithium levels and require a dose adjustment.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is a flower essence with limited human safety data and no established evidence for the conditions it's traditionally used for. If you take lithium, you'll want to check with your doctor or pharmacist before using it.
Anyone with a history of allergies — especially to plants in the daisy family — should be cautious, and pregnant or breastfeeding people should avoid it.
