HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Watercress Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita

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
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: Watercress Glycerite Liquid Extract. It's a concentrated liquid form of watercress in a glycerin base with vanilla flavoring.

The extract delivers watercress compounds in a drinkable format.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Watercress product and its label doesn't state a use — see Watercress's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for this product. The facts we hold don't include any rating of how well watercress works for any particular purpose, so I can't tell you whether it does what the label claims.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Watercress

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Watercress is generally well tolerated when you eat it in normal food amounts. But this is a concentrated extract, not the leafy green you'd toss in a salad — the safety data for medicinal or supplement doses is limited.

In food amounts, it's fine; if you're using this liquid as a supplement, that's a conversation to have with us first. In high doses, watercress can irritate your stomach and gut.

There's also a small risk if you're using raw or wild watercress: it can carry parasitic flukes that cause a liver infection called fascioliasis, though a standardized extract studied at high doses didn't trigger liver damage. Topical watercress can cause contact dermatitis (rash, itching, hives, or swelling).

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Watercress

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Watercress.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; lithium.
  • For scale: 6 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 use if you're on lithium, chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex), or warfarin (Coumadin). All three are Moderate-severity interactions with watercress.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take lithium, chlorzoxazone, or warfarin, check with us before using this product — the interactions are real. Even if you don't take those drugs, the safety data for concentrated watercress extract is thin, so it's worth a quick conversation.

For everyday food-amount watercress, no worries.

Watercress Glycerite Liquid Extract3 drug types · 6 drugs

Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Watercress might reduce the metabolism of chlorzoxazone and increase its effects and side effects. Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that a single ingestion of watercress 50 grams increases the chlorzoxazone plasma concentration-time curve by about 56% and increases its half-life by about 53%.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Lithium

Watercress is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, watercress might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Watercress contains vitamin K. Consuming large amounts of watercress might antagonize the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.

Watercress Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Watercress Vanilla Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Watercress Vanilla Flavor has a known interaction with 6 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Watercress Vanilla Flavor 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.
Is this safe in pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for watercress in pregnancy or lactation. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
What's the difference between eating watercress salad and taking this extract?
A salad is a food amount and is generally safe. This is a concentrated extract meant as a supplement, and the safety data for medicinal doses is limited. If you're considering it as a supplement, check with us first.
Can this cause side effects?
In food amounts, watercress is well tolerated. In high supplement doses, it can irritate your stomach and gut. There's also a small risk from raw, wild watercress being contaminated with parasitic flukes, though a standardized extract at high doses didn't damage the liver in studies.
What does 'diuretic' mean in the lithium interaction?
Diuretic means it acts like a water pill — it may increase how much fluid your body holds onto, which can affect how lithium clears from your system.
