HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Forskohlii 2100 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.

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: coleus forskohlii extract at 2100 mg per capsule. Coleus is a plant traditionally used to support various health conditions.

The capsule also holds inactive ingredients — cellulose, silica, magnesium stearate, and rice powder — which serve as fillers and binders.

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 Coleus product and its label doesn't state a use — see Coleus'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 we hold doesn't establish that coleus forskohlii extract is effective for any of the conditions it's marketed for — angina, asthma, cancer, congestive heart failure, eczema, or dry eye. All six conditions we have data on show insufficient reliable evidence to rate it.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work; it means the studies to prove it aren't in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Coleus

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.

Coleus is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, but gastrointestinal side effects do happen — mainly diarrhea and loose stools, nausea, vomiting, or constipation. A small number of trial participants reported increased bowel movements.

Because coleus may lower blood pressure, use it only under professional guidance and not for extended periods without monitoring. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding due to insufficient information.

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Coleus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 916 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 NusaPure Forskohlii, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take: nitrates or calcium channel blockers (both Major risk), blood pressure medications, blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, warfarin, or any drug metabolized by your liver's CYP2C9 or CYP3A4 enzymes (Moderate risk for all of these). The interaction risks are significant enough to warrant a quick call or visit.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take heart medications, blood pressure drugs, or blood thinners, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — the interaction risks are real. Even if you don't take those drugs, coleus hasn't been proven effective for the conditions it claims to help, and long-term safety isn't well understood.

A conversation with your own healthcare provider will help you decide whether it's right for you.

Coleus forskohlii extract7 drug types · 915 drugs

Calcium Channel Blockers

Theoretically, combining coleus with calcium channel blockers might increase the coronary vasodilatory effects.
Forskolin, a constituent of coleus, and calcium channel blockers both cause coronary vasodilatory effects.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Nitrates

Theoretically, combining coleus with nitrates might increase the coronary vasodilatory effects.
Forskolin, a constituent of coleus, and nitrates both cause coronary vasodilatory effects.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of coleus and anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.
In vitro and animal research shows that forskolin, a constituent of coleus, can inhibit platelet aggregation and adhesion.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, combining coleus with antihypertensive drugs might cause additive blood pressure lowering effects and increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research shows that forskolin, a constituent of coleus, may lower blood pressure.

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

Theoretically, taking coleus may affect drugs metabolized by CYP2C9 and increase the risk of adverse effects or reduce the effectiveness.
Research on the effect of coleus on CYP2C9 is conflicting. Some animal research shows that coleus extract can induce CYP2C9, while in vitro research shows that coleus can inhibit CYP2C9. Until more is known, advise patients that taking coleus might increase or decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.

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

Theoretically, taking coleus might decrease serum levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that coleus can activate the nuclear receptor, pregnane X receptor (PXR), which results in increased expression of CYP3A4. Although the clinical significance of this is not known, use caution when considering concomitant use of coleus and other drugs affected by these enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, taking coleus may affect the metabolism of warfarin and increase the risk of adverse effects or reduce the effectiveness.
Some animal research shows that coleus extract can induce cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9), an enzyme that metabolizes warfarin. However, other in vitro research shows that coleus can inhibit CYP2C9. Theoretically, taking coleus with drugs metabolized by CYP2C9 might affect drug levels and the risk of adverse effects. Until more is known, advise patients that taking coleus might increase or decrease levels of warfarin.

Forskohlii 2100 mg by NusaPure: Common Questions

Does Forskohlii 2100 mg by NusaPure interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Forskohlii 2100 mg has a known interaction with 915 medications, including 29 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Forskohlii 2100 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?
No. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know if it's safe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before considering it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.
What side effects should I watch for?
The most common ones are gastrointestinal — diarrhea, loose stools, nausea, vomiting, or constipation. These are usually dose-related and tend to be mild. Since coleus can lower blood pressure, watch for dizziness or lightheadedness, especially if you're not on blood pressure medication already.
Does this actually work for asthma or heart failure?
We don't have reliable evidence to say it does. All the health conditions this product is marketed for — including asthma, heart failure, and others — show insufficient evidence in our data. That means studies strong enough to prove it works aren't available to us.
Is this safe to take long-term?
There isn't enough long-term safety data. The safety notes specifically caution against extended use without professional guidance. If you're thinking of taking it regularly, discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist to make sure it's right for you.
Will this interact with my heart medication?
Very likely — coleus has Major-severity interactions with nitrates and calcium channel blockers, and Moderate interactions with other blood pressure and heart drugs. Don't start this product without checking with your doctor or pharmacist first if you take any heart or blood pressure medication.
