No. Stevia with Dextrose includes Dextrose whereas, plain, pure Stevia should have only Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni. Now, most Stevia powders have fillers to help with packaging ie. Erythritol and Xylitol, both of which are natural . Watch the ingredients in the brand of Stevia you choose and make sure you know what the fillers are and what percentage of Stevia is in the product. Some may have a lower percentage of Stevia, a higher percentage of filler, as well as unsafe fillers. Stevita Stevia has 95-98 percent of Stevia in their products.
