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 0 of its 15 active ingredients.
  • “Go-Stone Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Go-Stone 1000 mg contains 15 ingredients, of which we can identify the active herbal extracts. The product includes Oregon grape, organic parsley, organic nettle, spearmint, organic lemongrass, organic fennel, organic juniper, organic dandelion, organic mullein, organic chanca piedra, organic blessed thistle, and organic anise.

Three ingredients — a second listing of organic nettle, organic gravel, and organic elder — could not be fully verified in our data. The product also contains inactive ingredients: cellulose, glycerin, and water, which serve as binders and preservatives.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: kidney and gallstone support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis), Gallbladder disease, Urinary tract health, Liver support, Digestive complaints.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Chanca Piedra is rated "Possibly Effective" for Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Chanca Piedra is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Gallbladder disease.
  • Also on file: Stinging Nettle is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis).

The evidence for Go-Stone's effectiveness is sparse across its ingredients. Oregon grape is possibly effective for psoriasis, though evidence for eczema is insufficient.

Fennel is possibly effective for dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain). Nettle is possibly effective for diabetes.

Chanca piedra is possibly effective for kidney stones. For most other conditions the product might be used for — including urinary tract infections, common cold, cough, and general inflammation — the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate effectiveness.

None of the other ingredients have established effectiveness ratings in our data.

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 11 of the 12 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 12 of 12.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 12 of 12.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Oregon grape should be approached carefully when taken by mouth; topical use appears better tolerated. It's unsafe in pregnancy and while breastfeeding due to berberine content.

Parsley is safe as food but concentrated extracts and seeds may carry risks, especially large amounts. It's unsafe in pregnancy and potentially unsafe while breastfeeding.

Nettle is generally well tolerated but should be avoided in pregnancy and is unsafe while breastfeeding. Spearmint is likely safe in pregnancy but possibly unsafe, and likely safe while breastfeeding — the data are mixed.

Lemongrass, fennel, juniper, dandelion, mullein, and chanca piedra all lack sufficient safety data in pregnancy and should be avoided. Blessed thistle is unsafe in pregnancy and is not well studied while breastfeeding.

Anise is likely safe in pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Side effects from the herbal ingredients are generally mild — mostly gastrointestinal (stomach upset, diarrhea) and skin reactions (itching, rash, dermatitis) in sensitive individuals — but serious allergic reactions including anaphylaxis have been reported rarely with some ingredients, particularly parsley, dandelion, anise, and fennel.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Go-Stone may be of interest to someone looking for herbal support for kidney stones (chanca piedra is possibly effective) or dysmenorrhea (fennel is possibly effective), but evidence for most other claimed uses is not established in our data. If you're on any regular medications — especially blood thinners, diabetes drugs, blood pressure medications, antidepressants, birth control, or hormone therapy — you need to check your specific medicines against the interaction tool on this page before starting.

Pregnant people and those breastfeeding should avoid this product due to safety concerns with multiple ingredients. Talk with your own doctor or pharmacist before taking Go-Stone, especially if you have a chronic condition or take prescription drugs.

organic Mullein1 drug type · 122 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Lab tests on extracts from different parts of common and dense-flowered mullein plants show that they do have some blood-thinning effects, as they increase the time it takes for blood to clot. This is likely due to at least one of the known constituents of muellein, triterpenoid saponins. However, the effects appear to be mild and results have been inconsistent. Extracts from different plant parts have been show to have varying anticoagulant strengths, with water-based ones being more potent than alcohol-based extracts.

Go-Stone 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition: Common Questions

Does Go-Stone 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Go-Stone 1000 mg has a known interaction with 1,425 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Go-Stone 1000 mg contains 15 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.
Can I take Go-Stone if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Oregon grape, parsley, nettle, lemongrass, fennel, juniper, dandelion, mullein, chanca piedra, and blessed thistle are all unsafe or likely unsafe in pregnancy. Spearmint and anise have mixed or more favorable safety data, but overall, the product's safety profile in pregnancy and while breastfeeding is not well established. Talk with your doctor before use.
What is chanca piedra, and why is it in this product?
Chanca piedra is a plant traditionally used for kidney stone support. In our data, it's possibly effective for kidney stones. It's also one of the main active ingredients in Go-Stone, which appears to be formulated for that purpose.
Is there evidence Go-Stone works for kidney stones?
Chanca piedra, one of the key ingredients, is rated possibly effective for kidney stones. However, most of the other herbs in the product do not have established effectiveness for that condition in our data. If kidney stones are your concern, the evidence supports chanca piedra specifically, not the full blend.
What are the most common side effects?
Most side effects from these herbs are mild: gastrointestinal upset (nausea, diarrhea, stomach discomfort) and skin reactions (itching, rash, dermatitis) in sensitive people. Serious allergic reactions are rare but have been reported, especially with parsley, dandelion, fennel, and anise.
Can I use Go-Stone long-term?
The safety data for long-term use of these herbal ingredients are limited. Several ingredients — Oregon grape, juniper, and others — come with cautions about long-term use. Talk with your doctor about how long it's safe for you to take this product.
Does Go-Stone interact with warfarin or other blood thinners?
Yes. Oregon grape, parsley, nettle, dandelion, mullein, chanca piedra, and anise all may interact with blood thinners, raising bleeding risk or (in parsley's case) potentially reducing warfarin's effect due to its vitamin K content. Check all your medications with the tool on this page or with your pharmacist before starting.
