HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Blueberry Extract 60 mg by Vitamin World

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 16, 2026

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: blueberry extract at 60 mg per softgel. Blueberries are a natural fruit concentrate that contain compounds studied for their effects on blood sugar, inflammation, and circulation.

The softgel also contains several inactive ingredients to hold the extract together and form the capsule: gelatin, soybean oil, vegetable glycerin, soy lecithin, yellow beeswax, and natural caramel color.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Blueberry product and its label doesn't state a use — see Blueberry's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for blueberry extract's effectiveness is mixed. For high blood pressure, the research we have rates it as possibly ineffective.

For age-related cognitive decline, anxiety, athletic performance, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), and heart disease, the evidence isn't strong enough yet to rate whether it works—we have insufficient reliable data in our monograph. If you're considering this for any of those conditions, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to see whether it makes sense for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Blueberry

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.

Blueberries as a food are generally well tolerated and widely eaten without issue. The blueberry extract in this supplement is generally well tolerated too, though freeze-dried forms have been tied to gastrointestinal side effects—constipation, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting—in some people.

In one trial, about a quarter of participants taking high-dose freeze-dried blueberries dropped out in the first week due to digestive complaints. Regarding pregnancy and breastfeeding: eating fresh blueberries is fine during both, but the safety of concentrated supplements like this extract hasn't been well studied in pregnancy or while nursing.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding and interested in this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Blueberry

Meds to double-check

Minor interactions only
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Minor only

Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Blueberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 88 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.

Before taking this product, double-check with your pharmacist if you take antidiabetes drugs (blueberry may increase low blood sugar risk), flurbiprofen, or buspirone. All three are Minor-severity interactions, but worth confirming your exact medications are in the clear.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Blueberry extract may interest you if you're looking for an antioxidant supplement, though the evidence for specific health claims is limited. If you take antidiabetes drugs, flurbiprofen, buspirone, or other prescription medications, check with your pharmacist before adding this—it may affect how your body processes them.

If you're pregnant, nursing, or have digestive sensitivities, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Blueberry Extract3 drug types · 88 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, blueberries or blueberry leaf extracts might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal and in vitro research suggests that blueberry and/or blueberry leaf extracts can lower blood glucose levels.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Buspirone (Buspar)

Theoretically, blueberry juice might increase blood levels of buspirone.
In vitro research shows that blueberry juice can inhibit the metabolism of buspirone, possibly by inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes. However, pharmacokinetic research in humans shows that drinking 300 mL of blueberry juice 30 minutes before taking buspirone hydrochloride 10 mg does not significantly affect the concentration or clearance of buspirone.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Flurbiprofen (Ansaid, Others)

Theoretically, blueberry juice might increase blood levels of flurbiprofen.
In vitro research shows that blueberry juice can inhibit the metabolism of flurbiprofen, possibly by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) enzymes. However, pharmacokinetic research in humans shows that drinking 300 mL of blueberry juice 30 minutes before taking flurbiprofen 100 mg does not significantly affect the concentration or clearance of flurbiprofen.

Blueberry Extract 60 mg by Vitamin World: Common Questions

Does Blueberry Extract 60 mg by Vitamin World interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Blueberry Extract 60 mg has a known interaction with 88 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Blueberry Extract 60 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Fresh blueberries are fine, but the safety of concentrated blueberry extract supplements hasn't been well studied during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice—they can help you decide whether this product is right for you right now.
What are the side effects I should watch for?
Blueberry extract is generally well tolerated, but some people—especially those taking high-dose freeze-dried forms—have reported constipation, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. If your stomach gets upset after starting it, stop and let your pharmacist know.
Does blueberry extract actually lower blood pressure?
The evidence we have rates blueberry as possibly ineffective for high blood pressure. If that's why you're interested in it, your doctor may have better options to discuss with you.
Will this help with brain fog or memory?
Blueberry extract is often marketed for age-related cognitive decline, but we don't have enough reliable evidence yet to say whether it actually works. The science just isn't there yet.
What's the difference between this extract and just eating fresh blueberries?
This is a concentrated extract in a capsule, so you're getting a more potent dose than you would from a handful of fresh fruit. That's why it's important to check for interactions with your medications—the concentrated form may have stronger effects.
