HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Healthy Cholesterol and Triglycerides by EuroMedica
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 has one active ingredient: amla fruit extract, also called Indian gooseberry. It's a traditional plant remedy that's been studied for its effects on cholesterol, triglycerides, and digestion.
The rest of what's in the capsule—hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, silica, magnesium stearate, and microcrystalline cellulose—are inactive ingredients that help hold the capsule together and keep it stable on the shelf.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence for Indian gooseberry is mixed. For acid reflux (GERD), the research suggests it's possibly effective.
For high cholesterol and triglyceride levels (dyslipidemia), it's also possibly effective. For high cholesterol alone (hypercholesterolemia) and hair loss (androgenic alopecia), though, we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works or not.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Indian gooseberry is generally well tolerated as a food, but safety data on supplement doses is limited. There isn't enough reliable safety information to recommend this during pregnancy—talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.
The same goes for breastfeeding: there's too little data to say it's safe, so you'll want personalized advice. In clinical trials, a small number of people reported stomach discomfort or indigestion, and very few reported fatigue or muscle pain.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (anticoagulants or drugs like aspirin and clopidogrel)—Indian gooseberry may increase bleeding risk. Also check if you take diabetes medications, since this ingredient can lower blood sugar and might require a dose adjustment.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product may be worth considering if you're looking for a natural approach to cholesterol and triglycerides and acid reflux, but the evidence is modest. If you're on blood thinners, aspirin, diabetes medications, or any antiplatelet drug, check with your pharmacist first—the amla fruit extract could affect how those work.

Healthy Cholesterol and Triglycerides by EuroMedica Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Healthy Cholesterol and Triglycerides by EuroMedica contains amla fruit extract (Indian gooseberry), which does interact with several medication types.
The most serious concern is with blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs—this ingredient may increase bleeding risk. Research shows that Indian gooseberry can reduce how platelets clump together and lengthen bleeding time, though the evidence is mixed on whether that translates to real-world bleeding problems.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
You'll also want to check if you're taking diabetes medications. Indian gooseberry can lower blood sugar levels, which means your diabetes drug might work too well, raising the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
Your dose may need adjusting. Altogether, these interactions span 207 individual medications.
If you take aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), other anticoagulants, or diabetes drugs, run them through the medication checker below before you start this product. We've checked the one active ingredient for interactions; the inactive ingredients (the capsule material and fillers) don't interact with medications.

Amla Fruit Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg, as a single dose or for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg alone. Until more is known, use caution when taking Indian gooseberry in combination with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Taking Indian gooseberry with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry fruit or fruit extract alone or in conjunction with antidiabetes medications can lower blood glucose levels. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.
Aspirin
Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with aspirin; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with ecosprin 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus ecosprin 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with ecosprin 75 mg alone.
Clopidogrel (Plavix)
Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with clopidogrel; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg alone.
