Jackfruit and Tinzaparin

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS

Why this applies to Tinzaparin

Tinzaparin falls under ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS — the group Jackfruit interacts with.

Theoretically, jackfruit latex might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Jackfruit latex, which is the sap from jackfruit bark, contains chemicals that might increase the risk of bleeding. In vitro research shows that jackfruit latex contains a glycoprotein constituent that prolongs the activated partial thrombin time (aPTT) and reduces the activity of blood coagulation factors XIa and alpha-XIIa. Jackfruit latex also contains a protease constituent that has been shown to have fibrinolytic activity in vitro. Other parts of jackfruit, including the fruit and leaves, have not been shown to contain chemicals with fibrinolytic and anticoagulant activity.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Tinzaparin (Innohep) is a low molecular weight heparin, a blood thinner you inject to prevent or treat dangerous clots. Here's the concern with jackfruit: the latex (the sticky sap from the bark) contains compounds that, in lab studies, slowed clotting and broke down clots. Stacked on top of a blood thinner like tinzaparin, that could in theory nudge your bleeding risk higher, meaning easier bruising, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, or bleeding that's slow to stop.

The good news: this is theoretical and based only on lab work, not on people. And eating jackfruit as a fruit isn't the worry, since the flesh hasn't shown this effect. The latex is the issue. Still, since tinzaparin already thins your blood, check with your pharmacist or doctor before using any concentrated jackfruit product.

  • LikelyWell-controlled human studies have demonstrated the likely existence of this interaction.
  • ProbableInteraction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports.
  • PossibleInteraction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.
  • UnlikelyInteraction has been demonstrated in animal or in lab research but has been shown not to occur in humans.

  • AHigh-quality meta-analysis (quantitative systematic review).
  • BCase-control study.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Tinzaparin page

“Someone giving themselves tinzaparin (Innohep) injections is usually recovering from a blood clot in the leg or lung, or trying to prevent one, and that is exactly why this list of 218 supplements deserves real seriousness rather than a shrug. Nearly all of them, 202 in fact, push in one direction: extra bleeding risk on top of a drug…”

About Jackfruit

What is Jackfruit?

Jackfruit
  • General nutrition
  • Blood sugar support
  • Digestive health (fiber)
  • Antioxidant support
  • Wound care (traditional, latex/leaves)

Jackfruit is a large tropical fruit that is nutritious and safe to eat as a food, offering fiber, vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants. While its leaves, seeds, and other parts are used in traditional medicine for things like blood sugar and digestion, strong human evidence for these supplement uses is limited. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using concentrated jackfruit products for a health condition.
