HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Stevia (Cinnamon) by BIOVEA

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: stevia extract, a zero-calorie sweetener derived from the stevia plant. Stevia extract has been used in food and beverages for sweetness without the calorie or blood-sugar spike of sugar.

The liquid also contains vegetable glycerin, deionized water, and natural cinnamon flavor as inactive ingredients that give it texture and taste.

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 Stevia product and its label doesn't state a use — see Stevia'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 stevia's effects on diabetes, blood pressure, and weight isn't established enough for us to rate it reliably. Some clinical trials suggest stevia extract might lower blood sugar levels after meals in people with type 2 diabetes, and some research hints it could lower blood pressure in people with hypertension.

But other studies show no clear benefit, so the picture isn't settled yet.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Stevia

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.

Purified stevia sweeteners used in food are generally well tolerated and recognized as safe in typical amounts. However, whole-leaf stevia or supplement doses like this one haven't been studied as thoroughly, so use caution.

When taken by mouth, stevia and its active compounds usually tolerate well. Minor side effects—abdominal bloating, dizziness, headache, muscle pain, nausea, and numbness—may occur, but most resolve within the first week.

Allergic reactions are rare but possible.

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 — Stevia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 259 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.

Check your medications if you take lithium (Moderate interaction), blood pressure medications, or diabetes medications (both Minor interactions). No other drug interactions are documented for stevia in our data, but that doesn't mean none exist—your pharmacist can help you review your full medication list.

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.

Stevia extract3 drug types · 259 drugs

Lithium

Theoretically, stevia might decrease clearance and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that stevia extracts might have diuretic activity. Theoretically, increased reabsorption of lithium along with sodium might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, stevia might increase the risk for hypoglycemia when combined with antidiabetes drugs.
Preliminary clinical research in patients with type 2 diabetes suggests that taking a single dose of stevia extract 1000 mg reduces postprandial blood glucose levels when taken with a meal. However, other clinical research in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes suggests that taking stevioside 250 mg three times daily does not significantly affect blood glucose levels or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) after three months of treatment.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, combining stevia or stevia constituents with antihypertensive agents might increase the risk of hypotension.
Stevia extract and stevioside might lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension. However, other clinical research suggests that stevioside does not significantly lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Does Stevia (Cinnamon) by BIOVEA interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Stevia (Cinnamon) has a known interaction with 259 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Stevia (Cinnamon) 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.
Will this stevia product raise my blood sugar?
No. Stevia is a zero-calorie sweetener and doesn't contain sugar. Some research even suggests stevia extract might lower blood sugar levels after meals, though the evidence isn't conclusive yet.
What side effects might I notice?
Most people tolerate stevia well. If you do experience side effects—like bloating, dizziness, headache, muscle pain, nausea, or numbness—they usually go away within the first week. Allergic reactions are rare.
Is purified stevia safe, or does the amount in supplements matter?
Purified stevia in typical food amounts is recognized as safe. But supplements use higher doses than you'd get from food, and those haven't been studied as thoroughly, so use caution and talk to your pharmacist about what's right for you.
Can I use this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data for stevia supplements at this dose isn't on file, so we can't say either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to figure out what's safest for you and your baby.
Why is there cinnamon flavor in a stevia product?
The cinnamon flavor is an inactive ingredient added for taste. The active sweetening ingredient is stevia extract.
