HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Bee Propolis Extract w/Royal Jelly by Wonder Laboratories
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 two active ingredients: royal jelly and bee propolis extract. Royal jelly is a nutrient-rich secretion from honeybees, and bee propolis is a resinous mixture bees use to seal their hive.
The capsule also includes inactive ingredients — cellulose, gelatin, silica, and magnesium stearate — which are fillers and binders that help hold the supplement together.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Royal jelly appears possibly effective for menopausal symptoms, but the evidence for hay fever, physical performance, and diabetes is rated as possibly ineffective. For hair loss (androgenic alopecia), there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate it.
Bee propolis extract is possibly effective for oral mucositis (mouth sores) and cold sores, and possibly effective for diabetes. For dengue fever, there isn't enough evidence to establish whether it works.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Both ingredients are generally well tolerated by most people, but allergic reactions are a real concern — especially if you have a history of asthma, allergies (atopy), or sensitivity to bee products. Royal jelly can trigger serious reactions ranging from itching and hives to shortness of breath, and in rare cases anaphylaxis or death in sensitive people.
One case of bloody diarrhea with colon inflammation was reported after taking royal jelly, though symptoms resolved after stopping it. Propolis may cause headache in some users (around 7% reported mild headache in one trial) and can cause contact dermatitis or skin irritation, particularly when applied topically.
The product is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check with your pharmacist if you're on warfarin or other blood thinners, blood pressure medication, or any drug processed by your liver's cytochrome P450 system — that includes many antidepressants, pain relievers, cholesterol drugs, and others. The interaction risk is rated Moderate across all of these categories.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This supplement is suited for people without bee allergies or asthma who want to explore the possible benefits for menopausal symptoms or oral sores. If you take blood pressure medication or warfarin, or if you have any history of asthma or bee sensitivity, talk to your pharmacist before starting this — the interaction risks are real.
Anyone taking medications metabolized by your liver should check their specific drugs with the tool on this page before adding it.

Bee Propolis Extract w/Royal Jelly by Wonder Laboratories Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Bee Propolis Extract w/Royal Jelly by Wonder Laboratories contains two ingredients with documented interactions with medications.
The most serious is royal jelly's interaction with warfarin (a blood thinner), which raises the risk of bleeding — in one case, a person stabilized on warfarin developed blood in the urine and an elevated clotting marker after taking royal jelly for just one week.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Royal jelly may also lower blood pressure, so it could raise the risk of blood pressure dropping too far if you're already taking blood pressure medication (antihypertensive drugs). Bee propolis extract interacts with a broader range of drugs.
It may theoretically affect how your liver breaks down several classes of medications — including those processed by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4 substrates) — potentially raising their levels in your bloodstream. Additionally, propolis may increase bleeding risk with blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, and animal data suggests it might actually decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
Altogether, these interactions span 1,025 individual medications. Before starting this supplement, use the medication checker on this page to look up any prescription or over-the-counter drugs you take.

For each ingredient in Bee Propolis Extract w/Royal Jelly with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Bee Propolis Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, propolis might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro research shows that propolis water extract and the propolis constituent, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, can inhibit platelet aggregation. Additionally, evidence from an animal model shows that taking propolis in addition to warfarin decreases INR, suggesting that propolis can decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP1A2. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP1A2 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP1A2 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2C19. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2C19 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2C19 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2C9. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2C9 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2C9 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP2D6. However, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP2D6 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that inhibit CYP2D6 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates
Theoretically, propolis might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
In vitro research shows that propolis can inhibit CYP2E1. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, high doses of propolis might increase blood levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Some in vitro research shows that propolis extract can inhibit CYP3A4; however, other in vitro research shows that propolis has no effect on CYP3A4 activity. Furthermore, animal research shows that propolis extract does not significantly affect CYP3A4 activity when administered to rats at doses up to 250 mg/kg. It is postulated that the constituents of propolis that might in inhibit CYP3A4 in vitro do not have significant effects in vivo due to low bioavailability and hepatic first-pass effect. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, propolis might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
Animal research shows that taking propolis in addition to warfarin decreases the international normalized ratio (INR). This effect has not been reported in humans.
Royal Jelly
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, royal jelly might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that royal jelly might lower blood pressure.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Royal jelly might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with warfarin.
In one case, an 87-year-old male who was previously stabilized on warfarin developed hematuria and was found to have an INR of 7.29 after taking a royal jelly supplement for one week.
