Fenugreek

Safety profile

7 studies reporting safety data

Across 7 clinical studies, fenugreek was generally reported as well tolerated, with no specific adverse events found to be significantly increased compared to control. No serious adverse events were flagged across the reviewed trials. Reported minor effects included mild gastrointestinal side effects, transient maple-syrup odor in urine, and urticaria in infants (based on very low-certainty evidence). Hepatic and renal toxicity were not observed in the one study that assessed those markers.

Caveats: Evidence is limited to short-term studies (most ≤8 weeks) and many studies were not primarily designed to assess safety, so rare adverse events may not be detected. Findings reflect the specific forms and doses used in these trials; other formulations or long-term use may differ.
