HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Stevia Hazelnut by Village Vitality
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: stevia leaf extract, a natural sweetener derived from the stevia plant. It's mixed with vegetable glycerin, deionized water, and natural hazelnut flavor as inactive ingredients to create a liquid form.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for stevia's ability to help with diabetes, high blood pressure, or weight loss is insufficient in the data we hold. Some preliminary research suggests stevia may lower blood sugar in certain situations, and stevia compounds have shown some blood-pressure-lowering effect in animal work and a few human trials — but overall, the reliable evidence isn't established.
Talk with your doctor if you're thinking about using it for any of those reasons.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Purified stevia sweeteners in food amounts are generally recognized as safe. However, whole-leaf stevia and supplement doses — like those in this product — aren't well studied, so caution is warranted.
Side effects tend to be mild and include bloating, dizziness, headache, muscle pain, nausea, and numbness; most resolve within the first week. Allergic reactions are rare but possible.
No pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data is on file for this ingredient — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take lithium — stevia might raise its level. Also double-check if you're on any blood pressure medication or diabetes medication, since stevia theoretically could lower blood pressure or blood sugar further.
No other medication interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check.
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 is a stevia-based sweetener that hasn't been proven to lower blood sugar, blood pressure, or weight in reliable studies. If you take lithium, blood pressure medication, or diabetes medication, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it.
Most people tolerate it well, but you should know the possible side effects and the gaps in safety data for supplement doses.

Stevia Hazelnut by Village Vitality Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Stevia Hazelnut by Village Vitality can interact with a few important medication types through its stevia leaf extract.
The most serious concern is with lithium (used for mood disorders). Stevia may slow how your body clears lithium, which could raise levels to unsafe ranges — a moderate-severity interaction that needs attention if you take this medication.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Stevia also has minor interactions with blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs) and diabetes medications. With blood pressure drugs, there's a theoretical risk of blood pressure dropping too low.
With diabetes medications, stevia might increase the chance of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), though study results on stevia's own blood-sugar effect have been mixed.
Altogether, these interactions span 259 individual medications. If you take lithium, any blood pressure medication, or any diabetes drug, run your exact medications through the checker below before you start this product.

Stevia leaf extract
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.
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.
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.
