While oregano tea is generally safe in moderate amounts, keep the following in mind:

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before drinking herbal infusions.

Excessive intake may cause stomach upset or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.

Avoid high doses if you are taking blood thinners or diabetes medication: oregano may interfere.
