HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Caralluma Fimbriata 1600 mg by NusaPure

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

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: Caralluma Fimbriata Extract at 1600 mg per serving. Caralluma is a succulent plant traditionally used in herbal practice, and this extract is what delivers its active compounds.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients (rice flour, cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate) that help form and stabilize the capsule itself.

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 — see Caralluma's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: appetite suppression and weight management.
  • We looked for evidence on: Obesity, overweight, weight loss, body composition.
  • The closest evidence on file: Caralluma is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Obesity (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for Caralluma is mixed and limited. For weight management (obesity), it's rated possibly ineffective — meaning the data we have doesn't support the claim.

For anxiety and Prader-Willi syndrome, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate it either way. If you're considering this for one of those reasons, talk it over with your doctor about whether the current evidence supports trying it.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Caralluma

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.

Caralluma is generally well tolerated in the short term based on studies, but long-term safety hasn't been well established, so there's a real gap in what we know. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal — abdominal distention, constipation, flatulence, and gastritis — and they typically settle within the first two weeks.

One clinical trial reported a temporary blood pressure increase in one person with a history of high blood pressure, though it subsided and didn't return. During pregnancy, safety data is insufficient, so the guidance advises against it.

While breastfeeding, there's not enough reliable safety information, so it's best avoided as well. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Caralluma

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented for Caralluma Fimbriata Extract in our data. That doesn't mean interactions can't happen — just that we don't have evidence of them — so if you take any medications, it's still smart to confirm with your pharmacist that you're in the clear.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Caralluma Fimbriata may be worth considering if you're interested in trying it for weight management, though the evidence doesn't strongly support it. Expect possible digestive upset in your first two weeks, and know that long-term safety data is limited.

Pregnant and breastfeeding individuals should avoid it. Check with your own doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you have a history of high blood pressure.

Caralluma Fimbriata 1600 mg by NusaPure: Common Questions

Does Caralluma Fimbriata 1600 mg by NusaPure interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Caralluma Fimbriata 1600 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Caralluma Fimbriata 1600 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.
What side effects should I expect?
Most people have gastrointestinal complaints in the first two weeks: bloating, constipation, gas, or stomach irritation. These typically go away on their own. One person in a trial had a temporary spike in blood pressure, but it came back down and didn't happen again.
Can I take this while pregnant?
No — there isn't enough safety information during pregnancy, so it's best avoided. Talk with your doctor about options that have better safety data if you're pregnant or planning to be.
Is it safe to take while breastfeeding?
There's no reliable safety data for breastfeeding, so it should be avoided. If you're breastfeeding and interested in appetite or weight support, discuss other options with your doctor.
Does Caralluma work for weight loss?
The evidence we have rates it as possibly ineffective for obesity. That means the studies don't show it reliably works for weight management, so don't count on it as a primary tool.
How long does it take to work?
We don't have clear data on how quickly you'd notice any effect. Give your digestive system at least two weeks to adjust to it before deciding whether it's right for you.
Will this interact with my blood pressure medication?
No interactions with blood pressure drugs are documented in our data. That said, one person did experience a temporary blood pressure rise, so mention this product to your doctor or pharmacist, especially if you have high blood pressure.
