HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tianaa Green by Tianaa Green

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (531 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Tianaa Green contains two active ingredients in a proprietary blend: tianeptine and Combretum quadrangulare. Tianeptine is a compound studied for depression and cognitive support.

Combretum quadrangulare is a plant leaf traditionally used as a tea in some cultures. The capsule shell is gelatin, and the product includes purified water and FDA-approved food colorants (yellow 5, yellow 6, and blue 1) plus a silver pearlescent pigment as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Depression — rated "Possibly Effective" (Tianeptine) (Natural Medicines).

Tianeptine is rated possibly effective for depression based on available evidence. For Alzheimer disease and anxiety, the evidence isn't strong enough to rate.

Combretum quadrangulare's effectiveness for hypertension is also not established in the data we hold — it's been studied preliminarily, but reliable human evidence is lacking.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tianeptine Combretum Micranthum

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Tianeptine sold in supplements carries serious risks. It is not FDA-approved in the U.S., and the data show it has opioid-like effects with real potential for addiction, overdose, and death — especially at higher doses.

Common side effects at prescription doses include constipation, diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, insomnia, nausea, and vomiting. Rare but serious effects include agitation, confusion, coma, high blood pressure, liver damage, and tremor.

Recreational misuse has been linked to seizures and a serious brain condition called toxic leukoencephalopathy. Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Tianeptine is rated possibly unsafe in pregnancy due to its opioid-like effects and withdrawal risks.

Safety while breastfeeding is unknown, but the opioid-like effects make it inadvisable. Combretum quadrangulare lacks sufficient safety data for pregnancy or breastfeeding, so avoid it during both.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Combretum Micranthum, Tianeptine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 541 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.

Do not take Tianaa Green if you use MAOIs — the interaction is potentially life-threatening. Also check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take CNS depressants (including opioids or sedatives), aspirin (especially chronic use), blood pressure medications, diabetes drugs, diuretics, or drink alcohol regularly.

Tianeptine's opioid-like effects and high abuse potential make these interactions particularly serious.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Tianaa Green is marketed for mood and cognitive support, but contains tianeptine — a substance with serious addiction and overdose risks that is not approved by the FDA in the United States. If you take MAOIs, sedatives, aspirin, blood pressure or diabetes medications, or diuretics, check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding are contraindications based on available safety data. Given the risks documented in our data, discuss this product with your own doctor or pharmacist before starting.

Ingredients driving the most interactions

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Tianaa Green with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Tianeptine4 drug types · 277 drugs

Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (Maois)

Tianeptine may increase the toxicity of MAOIs.
Concomitant use of tianeptine and non-selective MAOIs might increase the risk of cardiovascular collapse, hypertension, fever, convulsions, and death.

Likelihood Probable Evidence C
Alcohol (Ethanol)

Alcohol increases the clearance and might reduce the levels and clinical effects of tianeptine.
Clinical research shows that alcohol decreases tianeptine absorption rate and lowers tianeptine plasma levels by about 30%. Furthermore, an analysis of alcohol blood levels in 112 patients suggests that alcohol use disorder is associated with a 124% increase in clearance of tianeptine.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Aspirin

Chronic use of aspirin might increase the levels and clinical effects of tianeptine.
Aspirin is converted to salicylic acid in the body. In vitro research shows that salicylic acid binds to the same protein sites as tianeptine, displacing protein-bound tianeptine and leading to higher levels of tianeptine in the blood.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Tianeptine has sedative effects; high doses may have additive effects with other CNS depressants.
Higher doses of tianeptine have opioid like effects and may have additive effects with other sedative drugs. In one case report, a 42-year-old male presented with respiratory depression and aspiration pneumonia due to concomitant use of high-dose tianeptine and alprazolam.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Combretum quadrangulare3 drug types · 265 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking Combretum micranthum leaf with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Some preliminary human and animal research suggests that Combretum micranthum leaf has hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking Combretum micranthum leaf with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Clinical research suggests that Combretum micranthum leaf reduces blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, taking Combretum micranthum leaf with diuretic drugs might increase the risk of hyponatremia.
Combretum micranthum leaf has shown natriuretic effects in preliminary clinical research.

Tianaa Green by Tianaa Green: Common Questions

Does Tianaa Green by Tianaa Green interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tianaa Green has a known interaction with 541 medications, including 9 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tianaa Green contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 tianeptine safe? I've seen it sold online as a supplement.
Tianeptine sold as a supplement carries serious risks — it's not FDA-approved in the U.S., and the data show real potential for addiction, overdose, and death, especially at higher doses. Prescription-dose use is generally well tolerated, but misuse has been linked to seizures and severe brain damage. This is not a typical supplement — it's a pharmaceutical compound with opioid-like effects.
Can I take this if I'm on an antidepressant?
That depends on which antidepressant. If you take an MAOI, do not use this product — the interaction can cause cardiovascular collapse and death. For other antidepressants, check with your doctor or pharmacist first, as tianeptine's effects on the brain may not mix safely with yours.
What are the most common side effects?
At prescription doses, the most common side effects are constipation, diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, insomnia, nausea, and vomiting. Rare but serious effects include confusion, coma, high blood pressure, and liver damage. Recreational misuse has caused seizures and toxic brain injury.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Tianeptine is rated possibly unsafe in pregnancy because of its opioid-like effects and withdrawal risks. Safety while breastfeeding is unknown, but the opioid-like effects make it inadvisable. Combretum quadrangulare also lacks sufficient safety data for both. Talk with your doctor before taking this product if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
What does Combretum quadrangulare do in this product?
Combretum quadrangulare is a plant leaf traditionally used as a tea. The data show it may lower blood pressure and blood sugar in preliminary research, but reliable human evidence for effectiveness isn't established. It's generally well tolerated, though abdominal pain has been rarely reported.
Can I drink alcohol while taking this?
No. Alcohol lowers tianeptine levels in your blood by about 30%, reducing how well it may work — and combining alcohol with a substance that has opioid-like effects and sedative properties increases your risk of serious harm. Avoid alcohol while taking this product.
