This is a homeopathic preparation. Homeopathy is a system of medicine established in the 19th century by a German physician named Samuel Hahnemann. Its basic principles are that "like treats like" and "potentiation through dilution." For example, in homeopathy, diarrhea would be treated with an extreme dilution of a substance that normally causes diarrhea when taken in high doses.
Practitioners of homeopathy believe that more dilute preparations are more potent. Many homeopathic preparations are so diluted that they contain little or no active ingredient. Therefore, most homeopathic products are not expected to have any pharmacological effects, drug interactions, or other harmful effects. Any beneficial effects are controversial and cannot be explained by current scientific methods.
Dilutions of 1 to 10 are designated by an "X." So a 1X dilution = 1:10, 3X=1:1000; 6X=1:1,000,000. Dilutions of 1 to 100 are designated by a "C." So a 1C dilution = 1:100; 3C = 1:1,000,000. Dilutions of 24X or 12C or more contain zero molecules of the original active ingredient.
Homeopathic products are permitted for sale in the US due to legislation passed in 1938 sponsored by a homeopathic physician who was also a Senator. The law still requires that the FDA allow the sale of products listed in the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States. However, homeopathic preparations are not held to the same safety and effectiveness standards as conventional medicines. For more information, see the Homeopathy monograph.

POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when used orally. Clubmoss contains toxic alkaloids, but no poisonings have been reported (18).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when used orally; avoid using.

Evidence from in vitro research suggests that clubmoss extract can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity (43717). Theoretically, concurrent use of clubmoss with other acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors might have additive effects and increase the risk of cholinergic side effects. AChE inhibitors and cholinergic drugs include bethanechol (Urecholine), donepezil (Aricept), echothiophate (Phospholine Iodide), edrophonium (Enlon, Reversol, Tensilon), neostigmine (Prostigmin), physostigmine (Antilirium), pyridostigmine (Mestinon, Regonol), succinylcholine (Anectine, Quelicin), and tacrine (Cognex).

Evidence from in vitro research suggests that clubmoss extract can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity (43717). Theoretically, concurrent use of anticholinergic drugs and clubmoss might decrease the effectiveness of club moss or the anticholinergic agent. Some anticholinergic drugs include atropine, benztropine (Cogentin), biperiden (Akineton), procyclidine (Kemadrin), and trihexyphenidyl (Artane).

General
...Orally, no adverse effects have been reported; however, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Additionally, clubmoss contains toxic alkaloids, which could cause serious adverse effects (43721). When fir club moss (Lycopodium selago) is mistaken for clubmoss, cholinergic toxicity has been reported. This toxicity is due to huperzine A, which is not present in clubmoss (13193).
Airborne exposure to clubmoss spores might cause symptoms of asthma (43721).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Occupational exposure to clubmoss spores, including cases associated with facilities that use the spores to coat condoms, has been reported to cause asthma (43721).
Other ...Clubmoss (Lycopodium clavatum) might be mistaken for fir club moss (Lycopodium selago), which contains huperzine A, a constituent with strong inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase. In two case reports, fir club moss was mistaken for clubmoss and ingested as tea. This caused cholinergic toxicity with symptoms of sweating, nausea, dizziness, cramping, and slurred speech (13193).
