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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 17, 2026

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 (2 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.

This tea blend contains 6 active ingredients: organic chamomile, organic stevia, organic lemon myrtle, holy basil, east Indian basil, and organic rose. Stevia is the sweetener; the basils and chamomile are the herbal components brewed for flavor and traditional use.

The blend includes one inactive ingredient, organic Egyptian rose flavor, to round out the taste.

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 immune system support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Stress, Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Respiratory tract infections, mood elevation, adaptogenic support.
  • The closest evidence on file: Holy Basil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Holy Basil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Respiratory tract infections, Stress.

Evidence for the active ingredients in this blend isn't established in our data. Stevia, holy basil, and east Indian basil are all rated as having insufficient reliable evidence for conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, anxiety, and asthma.

This tea is best thought of as a flavored herbal blend rather than a treatment for any specific health concern.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Stevia Holy Basil

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.

Stevia in food amounts (like you'd get in a tea) is generally recognized as safe. In higher supplement doses, safety data are thin, so use caution if you're drinking large quantities regularly.

Stevia is generally well tolerated, though a small number of people report minor side effects like headache, dizziness, nausea, bloating, or muscle aches in the first week — most resolve on their own. Holy basil and east Indian basil are well tolerated short-term in adults, with the most common side effects being loose stools and nausea.

However, long-term safety data are limited. The safety data advise against using these basil ingredients during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

There isn't enough data to know about chamomile, lemon myrtle, or rose in pregnancy or lactation — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant or nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Stevia Holy Basil

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Stevia, 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: 380 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 brew this tea, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs) — the basil content may increase bleeding risk. Lithium users should also verify it's okay; stevia may raise lithium levels.

If you take diabetes medications or pentobarbital, those carry Moderate-severity concerns too. Use the search tool on this page to check your exact medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a pleasant herbal tea blend, but if you take lithium, blood thinners, diabetes medications, or sedatives like pentobarbital, you need to clear it with your doctor or pharmacist first. Stevia and the basil ingredients carry real interaction risks with those drug classes.

Otherwise, if you're just looking for a flavored tea and you're not on medication, it's generally well tolerated.

organic Stevia3 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.

Organic Tulsi Blend3 drug types · 212 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, holy basil seed oil might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research shows that holy basil seed oil can prolong bleeding time, possibly due to inhibition of platelet aggregation. However, it is not known if this occurs in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, holy basil might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Small clinical studies show that taking holy basil can decrease fasting blood glucose and other measures of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, holy basil seed oil might increase the sedative effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that holy basil seed oil increases pentobarbitone-induced sleeping time. However, it is not known if this occurs in humans or if this applies to other barbiturates or sedatives.

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 380 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 5 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 this safe to drink while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advise against the basil ingredients (holy basil and east Indian basil) during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We don't have enough data to know about chamomile, lemon myrtle, or rose during these times either. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before you use this tea if you're pregnant or nursing — they can give you personalized advice.
What are the basil ingredients for?
Holy basil and east Indian basil are traditional herbal ingredients added for flavor and historical use. The evidence for them treating any specific condition — like anxiety, asthma, or diabetes — isn't established in our data, so you shouldn't rely on this tea as a treatment.
Will this tea affect my blood sugar?
Stevia and the basil ingredients might theoretically lower blood sugar, especially if you take diabetes medications. That's why it's important to check with your doctor or pharmacist first if you're on diabetes drugs — the combination could push your blood sugar too low.
What side effects might I experience from drinking this?
Most people tolerate it well. The basil ingredients may cause loose stools or nausea in some people. Stevia can cause headache, dizziness, nausea, bloating, or muscle aches, but those typically resolve within the first week.
Does this contain fillers or other stuff I don't need?
The blend itself is the six active herbs. There's one inactive ingredient listed: organic Egyptian rose flavor. No unnecessary fillers beyond that.
Is stevia actually safe in this tea?
Purified stevia in food amounts — like you'd get in a tea — is generally recognized as safe. The caution is with high-dose stevia supplements, where safety data are thinner. A cup of tea is a normal food use, so it's fine on that front.
