HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Shatavari Extract by Paradise

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

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: shatavari root extract, derived from Asparagus racemosus, a plant used in traditional medicine for several purposes. The capsule also contains cellulose as an inactive ingredient.

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 Asparagus Racemosus product and its label doesn't state a use — see Asparagus Racemosus'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 supporting shatavari root is thin. According to the data we hold, there is insufficient reliable evidence to rate its use for tuberculosis, lactation support, muscle strength, sexual desire, or bronchitis.

In other words, we don't have solid proof it works for any of these purposes, though traditional use is long-standing.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Asparagus Racemosus

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Shatavari root is generally well tolerated based on its long history in traditional use, but high-quality safety studies are limited. Adverse effects in clinical trials aren't on file.

Safety in pregnancy is not well established, so it's best avoided unless your doctor specifically advises otherwise. It's traditionally used to support milk supply, but reliable safety data for breastfeeding are lacking — if you're nursing and interested in shatavari, talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Asparagus Racemosus

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 — Asparagus Racemosus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 76 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 start shatavari, double-check if you take lithium — shatavari root may raise lithium levels. Also flag any diuretic or water-pill medications with your pharmacist, as shatavari might boost their effect and electrolyte loss.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.

Shatavari may interest you if you're exploring traditional herbal support, but the evidence for what it does isn't strong in our data. If you take lithium or diuretic drugs, check with your pharmacist first.

Otherwise, talk to your pharmacist about whether it's right for you, especially if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Shatavari Extract by Paradise: Common Questions

Does Shatavari Extract by Paradise interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Shatavari Extract has a known interaction with 76 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Shatavari 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.
Is shatavari safe during pregnancy?
Safety in pregnancy isn't well established, so it's best avoided unless your doctor advises otherwise. If you're pregnant and interested in shatavari, talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
Can I use shatavari if I'm breastfeeding?
Shatavari is traditionally used to support milk supply, but reliable safety data for breastfeeding are lacking. Use only under professional guidance — check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Does shatavari actually work for what it claims?
The evidence we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate shatavari for tuberculosis, lactation support, muscle strength, sexual desire, or bronchitis. Its use is rooted in tradition, but solid scientific proof is lacking.
What side effects should I watch for?
Adverse effects from clinical trials aren't on file for shatavari root. It's generally considered well tolerated based on traditional use, but high-quality safety data are limited.
Why does shatavari interact with lithium and water pills?
Shatavari root acts as a mild diuretic — it increases water loss from your body. With lithium, that means your body may clear it more slowly, letting it pile up. With diuretic drugs, shatavari may amplify their effect and electrolyte loss.
