Theoretically, combing noni and a potassium-sparing diuretic might increase the risk of hyperkalemia.

Noni Overview
Noni (Morinda citrifolia) is a tropical fruit that is native to Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. It is also known by a variety of other names, including Indian mulberry, beach mulberry, and cheese fruit. Noni fruit is typically not eaten fresh due to its strong flavor and smell. Regardless, many parts of the plant, including the roots, fruit, stem, bark, leaves, and flowers are used to make juice, supplements, and other products.
Noni has a long history of use in traditional medicine. Some studies have suggested that noni may have potential health benefits, including the ability to reduce inflammation, improve immune function, and lower blood pressure. It is also thought to have antioxidant and anti-tumor effects.
