HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Andrographis Extract 400 mg by LuckyHerbs
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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: andrographis aerial parts extract at 400 mg per capsule. Andrographis is a plant used in traditional medicine, and the extract concentrates its active compounds.
The capsule also contains inactive ingredients—hypromellose, rice flour, stearic acid, and silicon dioxide—which are fillers and binders that hold the supplement together.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence we have shows andrographis is possibly effective for three conditions: ulcerative colitis, tonsillopharyngitis (sore throat and throat inflammation), and osteoarthritis. For familial Mediterranean fever, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate it one way or the other.
These ratings mean that some clinical studies support a benefit, but more research would strengthen the case.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Andrographis is generally well tolerated when taken short-term, but quality and long-term safety haven't been fully worked out. The most common side effects at standard doses are mild—things like stomach discomfort, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, fatigue, and rash.
However, at high doses (5–10 mg/kg of andrographolide or more) or beyond 14 days, side effects become more likely. Rarely, severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis have been reported.
Skin rashes, itching, hives, and swelling are frequently reported; very rarely, serious skin conditions like Stevens-Johnson syndrome have occurred. Do not use this product during pregnancy—animal studies and theoretical concerns suggest it may affect reproduction.
While breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety information, so avoid it and talk with your doctor or pharmacist about alternatives.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you start, double-check with your pharmacist if you take blood pressure medications or blood thinners—these are Moderate-severity concerns. Also mention immune-suppressing drugs, celecoxib (Celebrex), etoricoxib (Arcoxia), or glipizide (Glucotrol), which have Minor-severity interactions with this extract.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Andrographis may help with sore throats, ulcerative colitis, or osteoarthritis if the evidence is strong enough for you. But if you take blood pressure medications, blood thinners, immune-suppressing drugs, or certain arthritis and diabetes medications, you'll need to check with your pharmacist first.
Pregnant or breastfeeding? This isn't for you.
Keep doses moderate and don't use it long-term without guidance.

Andrographis Extract 400 mg by LuckyHerbs Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Andrographis Extract 400 mg by LuckyHerbs does interact with several medication types, and the most serious concerns are with blood pressure medications and blood thinners.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
If you take blood pressure medications (antihypertensives), andrographis may lower your blood pressure further, raising the risk of blood pressure dropping too low. Similarly, if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin, this extract might increase your bleeding risk because animal studies suggest it has blood-thinning effects.
Both of these are Moderate-severity interactions.
Andrographis may also interfere with drugs that suppress your immune system (immunosuppressants), since lab research indicates it can stimulate immune activity. You'll also want to check if you take celecoxib (Celebrex), etoricoxib (Arcoxia), or glipizide (Glucotrol)—andrographis may alter how these are absorbed or processed, though the real-world impact isn't clear yet.
These are Minor-severity interactions.
Altogether, these interactions span 407 individual medications. Before you start this supplement, use the medication checker on this page to look up your exact prescriptions.

For each ingredient in Andrographis Extract 400 mg with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Andrographis Aerial Parts Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, andrographis might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal and laboratory studies suggest that andrographis has antiplatelet effects.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, andrographis might increase the risk of hypotension when used with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that andrographis has hypotensive effects.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, andrographis might interfere with the effects of immunosuppressive drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that andrographolide has immunostimulant activity.
Celecoxib (Celebrex)
Theoretically, andrographis extract might increase the maximum concentration and time to peak concentration of celecoxib. The clinical significance of these changes is unclear.
Animal research suggests that andrographis extract taken orally increases the maximum concentration and time to peak concentration of celecoxib but does not appear to impact the area under the curve.
Etoricoxib (Arcoxia)
Theoretically, andrographis might decrease the absorption of etoricoxib, although the clinical significance is unclear.
Animal research shows that andrographis extract, or the constituent andrographolide, taken orally with etoricoxib decreases the bioavailability of etoricoxib. However, this reduced bioavailability is not correlated with a reduction in the anti-inflammatory effects of etoricoxib in arthritic mice models. The clinical significance of this interaction is unclear.
Glipizide (Glucotrol)
Theoretically, andrographis extract might increase the maximum concentration and area under the curve of glipizide; however, opposite effects are seen with the constituent, andrographolide. The clinical significance of this interaction is unclear.
Animal research suggests that andrographis extract taken orally with glipizide in diabetes-induced rats increases the maximum concentration and area under the curve of glipizide. However, the opposite effect is seen with the constituent, andrographolide, in which the maximum concentration and area under the curve are decreased when taken with glipizide.
