HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Agaricus Extract Royal Gold by CATALO

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: agaricus blazei mushroom extract, a natural preparation derived from the agaricus mushroom. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — water, soluble polysaccharides, rice powder, and rice hull concentrate — which serve as fillers and carriers.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Agaricus Mushroom's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: enhance balance immune system and wellness.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cancer, Chemotherapy-induced adverse effects, Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Diabetes, Hyperlipidemia, Hepatitis B — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Agaricus Mushroom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cancer (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Agaricus Mushroom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Chemotherapy-induced adverse effects, Crohn Disease, Diabetes, and more.

The evidence we hold doesn't establish how well agaricus mushroom works for any of its marketed uses. The data rates effectiveness as insufficient for hay fever, osteoporosis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, chemotherapy side effects, and Crohn disease.

That means the studies either aren't there yet or aren't strong enough to say whether it actually helps.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Agaricus Mushroom

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Agaricus mushroom is generally well tolerated as a food, but supplement safety and long-term effects aren't well established. The most common side effects from taking it by mouth are abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, and nausea.

Rare serious effects include allergic reactions, liver damage (hepatotoxicity), and a lung condition called interstitial lung disease. Several cases of severe liver damage have been reported in women with cancer receiving chemotherapy who also took agaricus mushroom — two of those cases were fatal.

Allergic reactions including rash and lip swelling have also been reported. During pregnancy, there isn't enough safety data, so supplement doses should be avoided.

The same applies to breastfeeding — there isn't enough data to know if it's safe.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Agaricus Mushroom

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Agaricus Mushroom.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take any antidiabetes drug — insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, or others — check your exact medications before starting this product. Agaricus mushroom may increase the risk of low blood sugar when combined with these drugs, and you may need monitoring or a dose adjustment.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is worth discussing with your pharmacist before starting, especially if you take antidiabetes medications. The effectiveness data for agaricus mushroom is weak, and safety — particularly around liver health — hasn't been fully established.

If you're considering it, your pharmacist can help weigh the limited evidence against potential risks for your situation.
