HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Siberian Motherwort by Hawaii Pharm

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: Siberian Motherwort Leaf Extract in a dried form. It's delivered as a liquid (which includes alcohol, water, and glycerin 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 — see Motherwort's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Heart and nervous system support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Anxiety, Arrhythmia, Insomnia, Menopausal symptoms, Heart palpitations, Stress — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Motherwort is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Anxiety (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Motherwort is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Arrhythmia, Insomnia, Menopausal symptoms.

The evidence here is limited. Motherwort is possibly effective for bleeding, but for anxiety, amenorrhea (missing periods), asthma, and alcohol use disorder, we don't have reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

The science on human use is still thin.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Motherwort

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.

Motherwort appears to be generally well tolerated by mouth in the short term, though human safety data overall are limited. The most common side effects from oral use are diarrhea and stomach irritation.

At doses above 3 grams, it can trigger uterine bleeding. The product should be avoided in pregnancy — motherwort has been traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus.

There isn't enough safety information for breastfeeding either, so it's best to avoid it then too. Topically, it can cause contact dermatitis or photosensitivity reactions (increased sun sensitivity).

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 — Motherwort.
  • 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 you take this, double-check any central nervous system depressants you're on — that includes sleep aids, benzodiazepines, opioids, and antihistamines. Motherwort can add to their sedating effect.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're taking sedating medications — sleep aids, anxiety drugs, opioids, or antihistamines — check with us before starting this. Motherwort isn't for pregnant or breastfeeding folks.

For everyone else, the main watch-outs are stomach upset and, at higher doses, unusual bleeding. Talk to your pharmacist if you have questions about your specific medications.

Siberian Motherwort by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Siberian Motherwort by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Siberian Motherwort 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?
Siberian Motherwort 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Motherwort is traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus, so it should be avoided in pregnancy. There isn't enough safety information for breastfeeding either, so it's best to skip it then too. Talk to your doctor about what's safe for you at this time.
What are the most common side effects?
By mouth, diarrhea and stomach irritation are the most common. If you take more than 3 grams, uterine bleeding becomes a concern. The product can also cause contact dermatitis or sun sensitivity if it touches your skin.
Does this actually work for anxiety?
The evidence isn't established yet. We have insufficient reliable data to say whether motherwort is effective for anxiety. It's one of those traditional uses that needs more human research.
Why should I avoid this if I take sleep medication?
Motherwort causes drowsiness on its own. Adding it to a sleep aid or any other CNS depressant can increase sedation more than you'd expect — you might feel unusually drowsy or unsteady. Check with your pharmacist first.
Is this product safe for short-term use?
It appears to be generally well tolerated by mouth over the short term, though human safety data are limited overall. If you're taking it for more than a couple of weeks, that's a good time to revisit things with your pharmacist.
