HelloPharmacist Scorecard of BP-One by Patient One 1 MediNutritionals

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 3 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,635 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

BP-One contains 7 active ingredients. Vitamin B12 supports energy and nerve function and is used to treat B12 deficiency.

Folate works with B12 in your body. Vitamin K-2 supports blood clotting and bone health.

The proprietary blend includes arginine alphaketoglutarate and AmealPeptide E lactotripeptides for cardiovascular support, along with MegaNatural BP grape seed extract and RC-NOS rutaecarpine extract (from evodia) — both traditionally used to support circulation and vascular health. The tablet also contains several inactive ingredients — dicalcium phosphate, stearic acid, L-leucine, croscarmellose sodium, silicon dioxide, and aqueous film coating — used as binders and fillers.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Helps maintain normal blood pressure levels.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hypertension, Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Hypercholesterolemia, Atherosclerosis, Metabolic syndrome, Blood pressure regulation — and 2 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Grape is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Atherosclerosis (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Grape is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Hypercholesterolemia, Hypertension, Metabolic syndrome.
  • Also on file: Vitamin B12 is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Vitamin B12 is effective for treating B12 deficiency and is likely effective for cyanide poisoning. It's possibly effective for canker sores and postherpetic neuralgia (nerve pain after shingles).

Vitamin K is effective for clotting disorders and possibly effective for osteoporosis. Grape seed extract is possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency (sluggish circulation in the legs) but appears possibly ineffective for chemotherapy nausea, hay fever, and weight loss.

The effectiveness of arginine alphaketoglutarate, AmealPeptide E lactotripeptides, and evodia for blood pressure support is not established in the data we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B12 Grape Evodia Vitamin K

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 4 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Vitamin B12 is generally well-tolerated and has no established upper limit because your body removes excess in urine. It's considered safe in pregnancy and during breastfeeding at recommended amounts.

Allergic reactions to B12 are rare; when they occur, they may resemble a rash or hives. Vitamin K is generally well-tolerated, though oral forms may cause diarrhea, nausea, or stomach upset in some people.

It's likely safe in pregnancy and lactation at normal amounts, though concentrated supplements require your doctor's approval. Grape seed extract is generally well-tolerated and appears safe in pregnancy and lactation, though concentrated supplements in pregnancy should be avoided due to limited data.

Common side effects include abdominal pain, diarrhea, dry mouth, headache, and joint pain; anaphylaxis is rare. Evodia has limited human safety data and should be used with caution — it's traditionally avoided in pregnancy (possibly unsafe) and insufficient data exist for breastfeeding.

Animal studies show it can prolong the QT interval (a heart rhythm measure), though effects in humans are unknown.

Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 4 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Grape, Vitamin B12, Vitamin K, Evodia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 1,052 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.

Check your medications before taking this product if you're on warfarin or other blood thinners (Major interaction with vitamin K-2). At Moderate severity, several drug categories need review: cyclosporine, theophylline, midazolam, antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs, and medications affected by liver enzyme changes (CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4 substrates).

Metformin users should be aware of a Minor interaction with B12 — your doctor may want to monitor your B12 levels. Use the medication search tool below to check your exact drugs.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

BP-One is designed for blood pressure and cardiovascular support and contains B vitamins and herbal ingredients used for circulation. If you take warfarin, don't start this product without checking with your doctor first — vitamin K-2 directly opposes its effect.

Anyone on cyclosporine, theophylline, or certain heart medications should review their medications with a pharmacist before using this. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or take multiple prescription drugs.

RC-NOS Rutaecarpine extract11 drug types · 950 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, taking evodia with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.
In vitro and animal studies show that rutaecarpine, a constituent of evodia, inhibits platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Caffeine

Theoretically, evodia might decrease the levels and clinical effects of caffeine.
In animal models, evodia extract decreases caffeine levels by up to 71%. Evodia extract induces hepatic cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) enzyme, of which caffeine is a substrate.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Theoretically, evodia might decrease the levels and clinical effects of chlorzoxazone.
Animal research shows that administration of rutaecarpine, a constituent of evodia, with chlorzoxazone reduces the area under the curve (AUC) of chlorzoxazone by 84% and increases its clearance by 646%. This interaction is likely due to induction of cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) by rutaecarpine .

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Inhibitors

Theoretically, drugs that inhibit CYP1A2 might increase the levels and clinical effects of evodia.
The evodia constituent rutaecarpine is metabolized by CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Evodia might reduce the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates through induction of CYP1A2.
Evodia extract and the evodia constituent rutaecarpine induce hepatic CYP1A2 enzyme activity. Evodia decreases levels of theophylline and caffeine, CYP1A2 substrates, by about 70% in animal models.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, evodia might reduce the levels and clinical effects of CYP2E1 substrates through induction of CYP2E1.
Animal research suggests that rutaecarpine, a constituent of evodia, induces CYP2E1 activity. In rats, rutaecarpine increases markers of CYP2E1 activity, and administration of rutaecarpine with chlorzoxazone, a known CYP2E1 substrate, reduces the area under the curve (AUC) of chlorzoxazone by 84% and increases its clearance by 646%.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Inducers

Theoretically, taking CYP3A4 inducers might decrease the levels and clinical effects of evodia.
Animal research shows that concomitant administration of dexamethasone, a known CYP3A4 inducer, with the alkaloid constituents of evodia significantly reduces the area under the curve (AUC), maximum concentration (Cmax), and half-life of these constituents.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Inhibitors

Theoretically, CYP3A4 inhibitors might increase the levels and clinical effects of evodia.
Animal research shows that concomitant administration of ketoconazole, a known CYP3A4 inhibitor, with the alkaloid constituents of evodia significantly increases the area under the curve (AUC), maximum concentration (Cmax), and half-life of these constituents.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, evodia might increase the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that evodia extract inhibits hepatic CYP3A4. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Qt Interval-Prolonging Drugs

Theoretically, evodia might have an additive effect with drugs that prolong the QT interval, potentially increasing the risk of ventricular arrhythmias.
Evodia has demonstrated dose-dependent activity as a proarrhythmic agent in animal and in vitro studies. Evodia infusion in animals extends the action duration potential and induces prolongation of the QT interval and Torsade de pointes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Theophylline

Theoretically, evodia might decrease the levels and clinical effects of theophylline.
The evodia constituent rutaecarpine decreases theophylline levels and half-life by about 70% in animal models. This constituent appears to induce hepatic cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) enzyme activity, of which theophylline is a substrate. Rutaecarpine is the primary active constituent of evodia; however, it is not known if the whole crude extract of evodia also causes this interaction.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D

MegaNatural(TM) BP Grape seed extract9 drug types · 910 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, grape extracts may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape extracts might decrease platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Ingesting grape juice with cyclosporine can reduce cyclosporine absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy young adults shows that intake of purple grape juice 200 mL along with cyclosporine can decrease the absorption of cyclosporine by up to 30% when compared with water. Separate doses of grape juice and cyclosporine by at least 2 hours to avoid this interaction.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, grape juice might reduce the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, grape seed extract may increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP2D6 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, grape seed extract might increase the levels of CYP2E1 substrates.
In vitro and animal research suggests that grape seed proanthocyanidin extract inhibits CYP2E1 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

It is unclear if grape seed extract inhibits or induces CYP3A4; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP3A4 enzymes. However, evidence from animal research shows that grape seed extract may induce CYP3A4 in the liver. So far, these interactions have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Midazolam (Versed)

Theoretically, long-term intake of grape seed extract might decrease the effects of midazolam.
Animal research shows that subchronic ingestions of grape seed extract can increase the elimination of intravenous midazolam by increasing hepatic CYP3A4 activity. Single doses of grape seed extract do not appear to affect midazolam elimination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenacetin

Grape juice might decrease phenacetin absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2).

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

It is unclear if grape juice or grape seed extract inhibits CYP2C9; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence shows that grape seed extract or grape juice might inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. However, a small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that drinking 8 ounces of grape juice once does not affect the clearance of flurbiprofen, a probe-drug for CYP2C9 metabolism. The effects of continued grape juice consumption are unclear.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Vitamin B121 drug type · 20 drugs

Metformin (Glucophage)

Metformin, a common medication used to manage type 2 diabetes, has been associated with lower vitamin B12 levels in some individuals. Prolonged use of metformin can interfere with the absorption of B12 in the digestive system, potentially leading to a deficiency in this essential vitamin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence A

natural Vitamin K-21 drug type · 2 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Vitamin K can antagonize and reverse the therapeutic effects of warfarin.
Vitamin K antagonizes the effects of warfarin. Excessive vitamin K intake, either from supplements or from changes in the diet, can reduce the anticoagulant effect of warfarin.

BP-One by Patient One 1 MediNutritionals: Common Questions

Does BP-One by Patient One 1 MediNutritionals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, BP-One has a known interaction with 1,051 medications, including 2 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
BP-One contains 7 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
Is this safe to take if I'm pregnant?
Vitamin B12 and vitamin K are considered safe in pregnancy at normal amounts. Grape seed extract appears safe, though concentrated supplements should be avoided. However, evodia extract (RC-NOS) is traditionally avoided in pregnancy — the safety data advises against it. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about this product before starting, especially given the evodia content.
What's the proprietary blend, and why won't you tell me the amounts?
The proprietary blend contains arginine alphaketoglutarate and AmealPeptide E lactotripeptides — manufacturers often keep the individual amounts secret to protect their formula. We list the components so you know what's in there, but exact doses aren't disclosed on the label.
Can this actually lower blood pressure?
The product contains ingredients traditionally used for cardiovascular and circulation support — vitamin K, grape seed extract, and evodia are all used for vascular health. However, we don't have effectiveness data in our records for blood pressure specifically. If you're hoping to manage high blood pressure, talk with your doctor about whether this product is appropriate for you.
I'm on metformin for diabetes — is this okay?
Metformin can lower vitamin B12 levels over time, and this product contains B12. There's a Minor interaction documented. Your doctor may want to monitor your B12 levels if you take both, or they might want you to take them at different times. Check with them before starting.
What's arginine alphaketoglutarate, and what does it do?
Arginine alphaketoglutarate is a compound made from the amino acid arginine, sometimes used to support circulation and exercise performance. We don't hold specific effectiveness data for it in this product, so talk with your pharmacist if you want more detail on what it's intended to do.
Why is there so much warning about grape seed and liver enzymes?
Your liver uses special enzymes (like CYP3A4 and CYP2D6) to break down many medications. Grape seed extract can affect how these enzymes work, which means some drugs may stay in your body longer or be cleared faster — changing how well they work. That's why it's important to check your specific medications before starting.
