HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Blueberry Extract Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com
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 a single active ingredient: blueberry fruit extract at 500 mg per serving. Blueberry is added to a small amount of maltodextrin, an inactive ingredient used to help with texture and flow in the powder form.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for blueberry extract is mixed and incomplete. It's rated possibly ineffective for high blood pressure.
For age-related cognitive decline, anxiety, athletic performance, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), and heart disease prevention, there isn't enough reliable evidence yet to say whether it works or doesn't — the data we hold simply doesn't establish a clear effect.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Blueberries as a food are widely eaten and generally well tolerated. Blueberry extract powder is also generally well tolerated orally, though concentrated supplements haven't been studied as thoroughly as the whole fruit.
Some people taking freeze-dried blueberries have reported constipation, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting — in one trial, about a quarter of participants dropped out in the first week due to gastrointestinal complaints at a 50-gram daily dose. For pregnancy and breastfeeding, the rating in our data is Likely Safe, but concentrated extracts haven't been well studied in these situations, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant or nursing and considering this product.
Meds to double-check
Minor interactions only
Check your medications against the list if you take antidiabetes drugs (insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, and others), flurbiprofen (Ansaid), or buspirone (BuSpar). All three interactions are Minor severity, but they're worth verifying with your exact prescriptions using the medication checker below.
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 is generally well tolerated, but it can theoretically affect blood sugar and how your body breaks down certain medications. If you take diabetes drugs, flurbiprofen, or buspirone, check your exact medications with the tool on this page before starting.
Talk to your pharmacist if you're on any prescription drugs or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Blueberry Extract Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Blueberry Extract Powder by BulkSupplements.com has documented interactions with several medications.
The most serious concern is with antidiabetes drugs — blueberry extract may lower blood sugar levels, theoretically increasing the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) when combined with diabetes medications. This is rated Minor severity, but it's worth flagging if you're on insulin or other glucose-lowering drugs.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Blueberry extract may also slow how your body breaks down flurbiprofen (Ansaid) and buspirone (BuSpar), potentially raising blood levels of each. Both interactions are Minor severity, based on lab research showing the extract can inhibit certain liver enzymes that metabolize these drugs; however, human studies with blueberry juice have shown mixed results.
Altogether, these interactions span 87 individual medications. Before you start this supplement, use the medication checker on this page to see if any of your prescriptions or over-the-counter drugs are on that list.

For each ingredient in Blueberry Extract Powder 500 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.
Blueberry Fruit Extract
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.
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.
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.
