BreathiZen Side Effects and Safety: What to Know First
The short answer
BreathiZen is a dietary supplement in oral-spray form, made from botanical extracts (mullein, ginger, organic lemon), an enzyme (bromelain), a mushroom extract (organic cordyceps) and common liquid-supplement ingredients. It contains no prescription drug. The label says not to exceed the recommended dose and asks pregnant or nursing women, anyone under 18 and anyone with a known medical condition to consult a physician first. It is not a substitute for medical care for any breathing condition.
What’s in it
A 154 mg proprietary blend of mullein leaf extract 10:1, ginger root extract, bromelain, organic lemon extract and organic Cordyceps militaris extract, plus purified water, glycerin, natural flavors, citric acid, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate. Every ingredient is explained on the ingredients page.
Notes on specific ingredients
| Ingredient | Good to know |
|---|---|
| Bromelain (pineapple stem) | Skip it if you’re allergic to pineapple. It may affect blood clotting and the absorption of some antibiotics, so ask your doctor if you take either. |
| Ginger root | Usually well tolerated. Some people notice mild heartburn or stomach upset, and ginger may add to the effect of blood thinners. |
| Cordyceps militaris | Skip it if you’re allergic to mushrooms. Ask your doctor first if you take diabetes medication, blood thinners or immune-suppressing medicine. |
| Mullein and organic lemon | Generally well tolerated in supplement amounts. As with any botanical, stop if you notice mouth irritation, itching or any other sign of a reaction. |
Who should talk to a doctor first
- Anyone with asthma, COPD or another diagnosed breathing condition
- Anyone pregnant or nursing, and anyone under 18
- People taking blood thinners, diabetes or immune-suppressing medication
- Anyone allergic to pineapple, ginger or mushrooms, or with surgery coming up
Never stop or change an inhaler, nebulizer, oxygen or any prescription without your doctor. BreathiZen is meant to sit alongside your care, not replace it.

Frequently asked questions
Does BreathiZen have side effects?
Most ingredients are common botanicals and liquid-supplement ingredients. Some people notice mild stomach upset from ginger, and bromelain or cordyceps can cause reactions in people allergic to pineapple or mushrooms. Talk to your doctor first if you take blood thinners, diabetes or immune-related medication, or have a medical condition.
Can I use BreathiZen with my inhaler?
Talk to your doctor before adding any supplement to your routine, and never stop or change an inhaler, nebulizer, oxygen or prescription without your doctor.
