HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tulsi Sweet Rose by Organic India

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 6 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Organic Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1.60 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Organic Tulsi Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.
  • “Ingredients” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Tulsi Sweet Rose is a tea with 6 active ingredients: stevia (a sweetener), chamomile, rose, lemon myrtle, holy basil, and East Indian basil — plus organic Egyptian rose flavor as an inactive ingredient. Holy basil and East Indian basil are the main herbal components; stevia provides sweetness without sugar.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Stress relief and relaxation.
  • We looked for evidence on: Stress, Anxiety, Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Insomnia, Nervous tension, Mental fatigue — and 2 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Lemon is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Anxiety (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: German Chamomile is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Anxiety, Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Insomnia.
  • Also on file: Holy Basil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Insomnia, Stress.

The evidence we hold doesn't establish that this tea works for any specific condition. Stevia, lemon myrtle, holy basil, and East Indian basil all have insufficient reliable evidence for their uses — whether for blood sugar control, blood pressure, anxiety, respiratory health, or other purposes.

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 4 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Stevia and lemon myrtle are generally well tolerated in food amounts. Common minor side effects from stevia include headache, dizziness, nausea, bloating, and muscle pain, though these usually fade after the first week.

Holy basil is well tolerated short-term, with loose stools and nausea reported in a small number of trial participants, but long-term safety data are limited. During pregnancy, the safety data advise against holy basil — animal research raises concerns and human safety isn't established.

The same applies to breastfeeding. There isn't enough data on file for chamomile or rose during pregnancy or lactation; talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

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?
  • 4 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lemon, Stevia, German Chamomile, Holy Basil.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,201 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 before using if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin), diabetes medications, lithium, blood pressure drugs, itraconazole (an antifungal), or pentobarbital (a sedative). The interactions range from Moderate to Minor, but they're worth confirming with your pharmacist.

Tulsi Sweet Rose by Organic India: Common Questions

Does Tulsi Sweet Rose by Organic India interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tulsi Sweet Rose has a known interaction with 1,200 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tulsi Sweet Rose 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.
Does this tea have any proven health benefits?
Not according to the evidence we hold. The ingredients—stevia, chamomile, rose, lemon myrtle, holy basil, and East Indian basil—all lack sufficient reliable evidence to establish their effectiveness for specific conditions like anxiety, blood sugar control, or respiratory health.
What side effects might I experience from drinking this tea?
Common minor effects include headache, dizziness, nausea, bloating, and muscle pain from the stevia component—though these usually resolve after the first week. Holy basil may cause loose stools or nausea in some people. Lemon myrtle can trigger heartburn or stomach upset if consumed in larger amounts.
Is it safe to drink during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
The holy basil in this blend should be avoided during pregnancy—animal data raise concerns and human safety isn't established. It should also be avoided while breastfeeding. We don't have enough pregnancy or breastfeeding data on file for chamomile or rose. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Does stevia interact with medications?
Yes. Stevia may increase lithium levels, lower blood sugar with diabetes medications, and theoretically lower blood pressure if you're already on blood pressure drugs. Check your exact medications with the tool on this page.
What is East Indian basil, and is it the same as holy basil?
East Indian basil is the same plant as holy basil (tulsi). This tea contains both holy basil and East Indian basil as herbal components for flavor and traditional use.
I take itraconazole. Is this tea safe for me?
The lemon myrtle in this tea may increase itraconazole levels, potentially raising its effects. Check with your pharmacist before starting, and they can help you decide if timing or dose adjustments are needed.
