HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Linking Decoction Teapills by Plum Flower

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

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 6 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,320 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Linking Decoction Teapills is a 6-ingredient herbal capsule formula built around extracts of dong quai root, rehmannia root, goji fruit, ophiopogon tuber, glehnia root, and melia fruit, combined in a proprietary blend. The inactive ingredients are magnesium silicate, activated carbon, dextrin, and china wax — these are the capsule materials and binders that hold the formula together.

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Rehmannia) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence supporting these ingredients is limited. Dong quai carries insufficient reliable evidence to rate for iron deficiency anemia, osteoporosis, heart disease, migraines, and eczema.

Rehmannia is rated possibly effective for chronic kidney disease but has insufficient evidence for aplastic anemia, atopic disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, and diabetic kidney disease. Goji shows insufficient evidence across cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, obesity, sunburn, and quality of life.

No effectiveness claims are established in the data we hold for this formula overall.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Dong Quai Rehmannia Goji

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 2 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Dong quai is generally well tolerated by mouth, though burping and flatulence are the most common side effects. It can increase bleeding risk and cause skin sensitivity to sunlight, so use with care if you're already on a blood thinner or spend extended time in the sun.

Rehmannia has limited human safety data and quality varies between products. Both dong quai and rehmannia are advised against in pregnancy due to the risk of uterine stimulation and effects on bleeding.

Goji is generally safe as a food but has less safety data in concentrated supplement form; it's been linked to rare cases of allergic reactions (including angioedema and anaphylaxis) and, in one instance, hepatitis. Neither dong quai nor goji have adequate safety information for breastfeeding, so both are best avoided while nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Dong Quai Rehmannia Goji

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Dong Quai, Goji, Rehmannia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 1,063 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.

Check your medications if you take warfarin or any other blood thinner (anticoagulant or antiplatelet drug) — dong quai and goji carry Major and Moderate risks of increased bleeding. Also double-check if you're on blood pressure medication, diabetes medication, flecainide, or any medication metabolized by your liver's CYP450 enzymes — goji especially may affect how your body processes these drugs.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This formula is built on traditional Chinese herbs with very limited modern evidence of effectiveness. The real concern is interaction risk — if you take warfarin, any blood thinner, blood pressure medication, diabetes medication, or the heart drug flecainide, you need to check this product against your exact medications before starting.

Talk to your pharmacist or doctor; pregnancy and breastfeeding are reasons to avoid it.

Lycium barbarum Fruit Extract8 drug types · 1,000 drugs

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).

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Lycium barbarum Fruit Extract full monograph & interactions

Rehmannia glutinosa Root Extract2 drug types · 258 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, rehmannia might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that rehmannia may have hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, rehmannia might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research shows that rehmannia may have hypotensive effects. Laboratory research shows that formulations of dried and processed rehmannia root inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE).

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Rehmannia glutinosa Root Extract full monograph & interactions

Angelica sinensis Root Extract3 drug types · 163 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Dong quai may increase the risk of bleeding when used with warfarin.
Case reports suggest that concomitant use of dong quai with warfarin can increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin and increase the risk of bleeding. In one case, after 4 weeks of taking dong quai 565 mg once or twice daily, the international normalized ratio (INR) increased to 4.9. The INR normalized 4 weeks after discontinuation of dong quai.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, dong quai may increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Animal studies suggest that dong quai has antithrombin activity and inhibits platelet aggregation due to its coumarin components. Additionally, some case reports in humans suggest that dong quai can increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. However, clinical research in healthy adults shows that taking 1 gram of dong quai root daily for 3 weeks does not significantly inhibit platelet aggregation or cause bleeding. Until more is known, use dong quai with caution in patients taking antiplatelet/anticoagulant drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Estrogens

Theoretically, dong quai may reduce the effects of estrogens.
Dong quai has estrogenic effects. Theoretically, concomitant use of large amounts of dong quai might interfere with hormone replacement therapy due to competition for estrogen receptors.

Linking Decoction Teapills by Plum Flower: Common Questions

Does Linking Decoction Teapills by Plum Flower interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Linking Decoction Teapills has a known interaction with 1,062 medications, including 2 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Linking Decoction Teapills contains 6 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 this if I'm on warfarin?
No — both dong quai and goji in this formula have documented Major-severity interactions with warfarin and can increase your bleeding risk. Case reports show increased INR (a measure of blood thinning) after just weeks of use. You must talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting this product.
What are the most common side effects?
Dong quai, the main ingredient, most commonly causes burping and flatulence. Less common are allergic reactions to goji (itching, swelling of the face or lips, rarely anaphylaxis) and skin sensitivity to sunlight with dong quai. Most people tolerate it without problems.
Can I take this while pregnant?
Both dong quai and rehmannia are advised against in pregnancy because they may stimulate the uterus and affect bleeding. The safety data aren't there to say it's okay. Talk with your doctor before considering it.
Can I breastfeed while taking this?
No — there isn't enough safety information for dong quai or rehmannia while breastfeeding, so both are best avoided. If you're considering it, talk with your pharmacist or doctor first.
Does this product actually work for anything?
The evidence is very limited. The data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence for all the conditions this formula might be used for — anemia, osteoporosis, heart disease, migraines, eczema, and others. One ingredient, rehmannia, is rated possibly effective for chronic kidney disease, but that's as strong as the evidence gets here.
What's a 'proprietary blend' and why should I care?
It means the exact amount of each ingredient is not disclosed on the label — only the total blend weight. You can't tell how much dong quai or goji you're actually getting, which matters when weighing interaction and side-effect risk. Always ask your pharmacist if you need more details.
