HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitex Chaste Tree Berry 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection
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
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: chaste tree (Vitex agnus-castus) at 450 mg per capsule. Chaste tree is a plant extract traditionally used for hormone-related concerns.
The capsule itself is made from gelatin and water, which are inactive ingredients that hold the chaste tree together.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Chaste tree has possibly effective evidence for premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and mastalgia (breast pain). The evidence for fractures is possibly ineffective.
For aging skin, anxiety, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), there isn't enough reliable evidence in our data to rate whether it works.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Chaste tree is generally well tolerated in the short term, but because it affects hormones, it's best used under guidance from your doctor or pharmacist. The safety data advises against taking it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding due to possible hormonal effects and limited safety information in those settings.
Side effects some people have reported include diarrhea, fatigue, headache, insomnia, nausea, stomach pain, vomiting, and skin issues like itching, rash, acne, or hair loss. Irregular or prolonged menstrual bleeding has also been reported.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check if you're on antipsychotic drugs, metoclopramide (Reglan), dopamine agonists, contraceptive drugs, or estrogens — chaste tree may interfere with all of them due to its dopamine and hormone effects.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Chaste tree may help with PMS or breast pain if you're not on hormonal medications or antipsychotic drugs. If you take birth control, hormone replacement therapy, metoclopramide, antipsychotics, or dopamine agonists, check with your pharmacist first — this supplement could interfere with how they work.
Don't use it in pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Run your medications through our interaction checker below.

Vitex Chaste Tree Berry 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Vitex Chaste Tree Berry by TerraVita Premium Collection does interact with medications.
The ingredient chaste tree appears to affect how your body handles dopamine, a brain chemical, which creates moderate concerns with several drug classes.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The biggest worry is with antipsychotic medications and metoclopramide (Reglan, used for nausea and stomach issues) — chaste tree may interfere with how these drugs work by boosting dopamine activity when the drugs are trying to block it. You'll also want to flag any dopamine agonists (medications that increase dopamine) you're taking, as chaste tree might strengthen their effects.
Additionally, if you take hormonal medications — including birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy, or estrogens — chaste tree may reduce how well they work because it has hormone-modulating activity. Altogether, these interactions span 121 individual medications.
