HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Full Spectrum Goji Berry 700 mg by Planetary Herbals
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: goji fruit extract at 700 mg per capsule. Goji (also called wolfberry) is a traditional botanical used in herbal medicine.
The capsule itself is made from inactive ingredients—hypromellose, microcrystalline cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate—which help hold it together and aid absorption.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence we hold shows insufficient reliable data to rate goji for sunburn, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, obesity, or quality of life. That doesn't mean it doesn't work for these uses — it means the clinical studies backing it up aren't solid enough yet for us to say one way or the other.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Goji berries as food are generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplements like this one have less safety data behind them. We do have a few reports of liver injury and allergic reactions (including rashes, swelling, itching, and in rare cases anaphylaxis) linked to goji supplements, though it's sometimes unclear whether goji alone was the culprit.
The safety data advises against medicinal amounts during pregnancy due to limited information and traditional concerns about uterine effects. If you're breastfeeding, there isn't enough reliable data on supplement use, so talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on warfarin (Major severity concern), or any of these Moderate-severity types: other blood thinners, blood pressure medications, heart rhythm drugs like flecainide, or medications broken down by CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 enzymes. Also mention if you take antidiabetes drugs.
Because goji may slow the liver's processing of these medications, levels could build up and cause harm.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Goji is a traditional supplement with real interaction risks — especially with blood thinners and the many drugs your liver breaks down. If you take warfarin, blood pressure meds, antidiabetes drugs, heart rhythm drugs, or any prescription medication that depends on liver enzymes, you'll want to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this.
Those without medication concerns may find it generally well tolerated, though rare allergic and liver issues have been reported.

Full Spectrum Goji Berry 700 mg by Planetary Herbals Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Full Spectrum Goji Berry 700 mg by Planetary Herbals, through its goji fruit extract, interacts with several medication types.
The most serious concern is warfarin (a blood thinner). Goji can increase warfarin's effects and raise your bleeding risk — we have at least 5 case reports of patients on stable warfarin doses who developed elevated INR (a measure of blood thinning) after starting goji juice, tea, or wine.
Goji appears to slow how your liver breaks down warfarin.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Beyond warfarin, goji may inhibit several liver enzymes that break down other medications. This includes CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4 substrates — a broad category that covers many common drugs.
In lab studies, goji juice and tincture block these enzymes, which could raise drug levels in your body; however, these effects haven't been confirmed in humans yet. Flecainide (a heart rhythm medication) has been implicated in one case of toxicity linked to concentrated goji.
Antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medications) and antidiabetes drugs may also be affected theoretically, though the evidence is weaker.
Altogether, these interactions span 1,001 individual medications. Because so many drug classes depend on those liver enzymes, check your exact medications with the search tool on this page before you start.

For each ingredient in Full Spectrum Goji Berry 700 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.
Lycium fruit extract
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Goji can increase the effects of warfarin and possibly increase the risk of bleeding.
There are at least 5 case reports of increased international normalized ratio (INR) in patients stabilized on warfarin who began drinking goji juice, concentrated goji tea, or goji wine. Goji may inhibit the metabolism of warfarin by cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9).
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use of goji root bark, but not goji fruit, with antihypertensive drugs might have additive effects.
Animal and in vitro research suggest that goji root bark has hypotensive effects. However, goji fruit juice does not appear to reduce systolic or diastolic blood pressure in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
Theoretically, goji berry might inhibit CYP2C19 and reduce metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro research shows that goji berry tincture and juice inhibit CYP2C19 enzymes. Concomitant use with goji may decrease metabolism and increase levels of CYP2C19 substrates. However, this has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates
Theoretically, goji berry might inhibit CYP2C9 and reduce metabolism of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that goji berry tincture and juice inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. Additionally, multiple case reports suggest that goji berry concentrated tea and juice inhibit the metabolism of warfarin, a CYP2C9 substrate. Concomitant use with goji may decrease metabolism and increase levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates
Theoretically, goji berry might inhibit CYP2D6 and reduce metabolism of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro research shows that goji berry juice inhibits CYP2D6 enzymes. Concomitant use with goji may decrease metabolism and increase levels of CYP2D6 substrates. However, this has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, goji berry might inhibit CYP3A4 and reduce metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that goji berry juice inhibits CYP3A4 enzymes. Concomitant use with goji may decrease metabolism and increase levels of CYP3A4 substrates. However, this has not been reported in humans.
Flecainide (Tambocor)
Theoretically, goji berry might increase the levels and clinical effects of flecainide.
In one case report, a 75-year-old patient stable on flecainide and warfarin presented to the emergency room with fainting and pleomorphic arrhythmia caused by flecainide toxicity. Flecainide toxicity was attributed to drinking 1-2 glasses of concentrated goji tea daily for 2 weeks. Theoretically, goji may have inhibited the cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolism of flecainide.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use of goji fruit polysaccharides or goji root bark with antidiabetes drugs might have additive effects.
Animal and in vitro research show that goji root bark and fruit polysaccharides might have hypoglycemic effects. However, clinical research has only shown that taking goji fruit polysaccharides with or without antidiabetes drugs modestly reduces postprandial glucose when compared with control, with no reports of hypoglycemia.
