HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Scullcap 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection

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.

Scullcap 450 mg contains one active ingredient: skullcap (also called scullcap), an herb from the mint family. The capsule itself is made with gelatin and water as inactive ingredients.

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 Skullcap product and its label doesn't state a use — see Skullcap'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.

The evidence for skullcap is limited. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate its use for epilepsy, stress, stroke, spasticity, contact dermatitis, or premenstrual dysphoric disorder.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means rigorous studies haven't established whether it does. If you're considering it for any of these conditions, talk it over with your doctor to weigh what limited evidence exists against your own situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Skullcap

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.

Skullcap is often used short-term, but the safety data is sparse and product quality varies, so proceed with care. The most common side effects from oral use are cognitive impairment, digestive upset, and sedation.

In one small trial, about 9% of people taking 350 mg three times daily reported mild digestive disturbances. A dose of 200 mg or higher may trigger sedation and cognitive impairment; a single 100 mg dose did not seem to cause these effects in testing.

One person taking 350 mg three times daily for two weeks reported vivid dreams, though it's unclear if skullcap caused it. The safety data advises against skullcap during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Because evidence is limited and the risks aren't fully known, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you in these situations.

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 — Skullcap.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 248 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, double-check any CNS depressants you're on — sleep aids, anti-anxiety medications, pain relievers with sedating properties, and certain antidepressants. Skullcap can add to their drowsiness and cognitive effects.

Use the search tool on this page to look up your specific drugs, and discuss the combination with your own doctor or pharmacist.

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.

Skullcap may interest you if you're exploring herbal options for stress or other conditions, but the evidence to support its use isn't established. The biggest caution is that it can amplify sedation and impair focus, especially when combined with sleep aids, anti-anxiety drugs, or other CNS depressants.

Check your exact medications before starting, and have a conversation with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it fits your health picture.

Scullcap 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Scullcap 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Scullcap 450 mg has a known interaction with 248 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Scullcap 450 mg 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 exactly is skullcap?
Skullcap is an herb from the mint family, traditionally used in herbal medicine. It's the active ingredient in this 450 mg capsule.
Does skullcap actually work for stress or anxiety?
The evidence isn't reliable enough to say one way or the other. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate skullcap for stress — meaning rigorous studies haven't proven whether it works. Talk with your doctor if you're considering it for anxiety or stress.
What side effects might I notice?
The most common ones from oral use are drowsiness, difficulty concentrating, and digestive upset. About 9% of people in one trial experienced mild digestive disturbances. At higher doses — 200 mg or above — sedation and cognitive impairment are more likely.
Is it safe to take during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
No — the safety data advises against skullcap in both cases because there isn't enough information to know it's safe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your options if you're pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding.
Can I take this with my sleep medication?
That's a caution zone. Skullcap can amplify sedation and cognitive impairment when combined with CNS depressants like sleep aids. Check your specific medication with the search tool here, and clear it with your doctor or pharmacist before combining them.
