HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Zen Drops Passionflower by Wink Naturals
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
Low disclosure
Zen Drops Passionflower is a straightforward one-ingredient product: passion flower extract. That's the active ingredient doing the work.
The liquid also contains glycerin and water as inactive ingredients to give it form and shelf life.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Passion flower extract in this product is rated possibly effective for insomnia and pre-procedural anxiety — the kind of worry you might feel before a medical procedure. For alcohol use disorder and benzodiazepine withdrawal, the evidence on file isn't strong enough to say whether it works or not.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Passion flower is generally well tolerated when you take it short-term, but drowsiness is common — that's partly why people use it for sleep. The facts do flag that it can also cause confusion, dizziness, and sensitivity reactions in some people.
One case report described severe nausea, vomiting, and heart rhythm changes at very high doses, though symptoms resolved once the product was stopped. Avoid this product during pregnancy because there isn't enough safety data and it may affect the uterus.
There also isn't enough information for breastfeeding, so it's best not used then either. If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this, double-check with your pharmacist if you're on any sedative medications — benzodiazepines, sleep aids, or anything that slows your nervous system. It may also affect how your body processes certain drug classes your doctor manages (OATP and CYP3A4 substrates are the main ones).
Your pharmacist can run your specific medications through the interaction checker on this page.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Zen Drops Passionflower may help with sleep or pre-procedure jitters, but it's a sedative, so it plays rough with other sedative medications. If you take any sleep aids, anxiety meds, or other CNS depressants, check with your pharmacist first.
Skip it if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. It's a single-ingredient product, which keeps things simple — just make sure it won't collide with what you're already taking.

Zen Drops Passionflower by Wink Naturals Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Zen Drops Passionflower by Wink Naturals contains passion flower extract, which does interact with several medication types.
The most serious concern is with sedative drugs (CNS depressants) — things like benzodiazepines, sleep aids, and other medications that slow your nervous system. Passion flower has sedative effects of its own, and combining it with these drugs can add up to too much drowsiness and other sedative side effects.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
It may also affect how your body absorbs or processes certain medications. In the lab, passion flower components show they can block transporters (OATP) that move some drugs into cells, potentially lowering those drugs' levels in your bloodstream.
Additionally, passion flower may slightly speed up how your liver breaks down CYP3A4 substrates — a large class of medications — though the effect is much weaker than with drugs like rifampin.
Altogether, these interactions span 826 individual medications. Check your exact prescriptions with the tool on this page before you start, especially if you take any sedatives or sleep medications.

Passion Flower extract
Cns Depressants
Concomitant use of passion flower with sedative drugs might cause additive effects and side effects.
Research in animals and humans shows that passion flower has sedative effects which can be additive when used with sedative medications like lorazepam.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, passion flower might decrease the effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that passion flower can induce CYP3A4 enzymes, albeit to a much lower degree than rifampin, a known CYP3A4 inducer.
Organic Anion-Transporting Polypeptide Substrates (Oatp)
Theoretically, passion flower might reduce the bioavailability of OATP2B1 and OATP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that the passion flower constituents apigenin and vitexin inhibit OATP2B1 and OATP1A2. This inhibition may be dose-dependent. One specific high-flavonoid passion flower extract (Valverde) seems to inhibit OATP2B1 and OATP1A2, while another extract with a lower flavonoid concentration (Arkocaps) shows less potent inhibition. OATPs are responsible for the uptake of drugs and other compounds into the body; however, the specific activities of OATP2B1 and OATP1A2 are not well characterized.
