HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mangosteen by Hawaii Pharm

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Aug 20, 2026

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.

Hawaii Pharm's Mangosteen is a single-ingredient liquid supplement: Mangosteen Juice Extract in dry powder form. The inactive ingredients are alcohol, water, and glycerin — these help preserve and deliver the active extract.

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 Mangosteen's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Mangosteen 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 ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Periodontitis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for mangosteen is mixed and limited. It's rated possibly effective for periodontitis (gum disease), based on available research.

For androgenic alopecia (male-pattern baldness), Alzheimer's disease, and atopic dermatitis (eczema), the evidence isn't established enough in our data to rate its usefulness.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Mangosteen

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.

Mangosteen is generally well tolerated and considered safe as a food, but long-term safety of concentrated supplements like this one hasn't been well studied. Some people taking mangosteen extract up to 560 mg daily in research have reported mild tiredness, headache, dizziness, digestive upset (constipation, bloating, nausea, diarrhea), dry throat, and flu-like symptoms — though it's unclear whether mangosteen caused them.

Don't use this supplement during pregnancy or breastfeeding. There isn't enough safety information to know it's safe in those situations, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Mangosteen

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Mangosteen.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 125 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 this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet medications (warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel, etc.) — mangosteen may increase bleeding risk. Also confirm if you take donepezil (Aricept); mangosteen might boost its effects in your brain.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Mangosteen may help with gum disease, but the evidence for other uses is too weak to call it effective. If you take blood thinners, antiplatelet drugs, or donepezil, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement — the interaction risk is real.

It's generally well tolerated otherwise, but avoid it if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Mangosteen Juice Extract, Dry, Powder2 drug types · 125 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of mangosteen with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs may increase the risk of bleeding.
In vitro and animal research shows that gamma-mangostin, a constituent of mangosteen, is a potent and competitive antagonist of the serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptor. Antagonism of the 5-HT2A receptor is believed to reduce platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Donepezil (Aricept)

Theoretically, concomitant use of mangosteen with donepezil might increase the effects of donepezil.
Animal research shows that concomitant use of an aqueous extract of mangosteen pericarp with donepezil increases brain concentrations of donepezil at 4 hours by 64% without associated effects on systemic exposure.

Mangosteen by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Mangosteen by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Mangosteen has a known interaction with 125 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Mangosteen 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.
What does mangosteen actually do?
The research suggests mangosteen may help with periodontitis — that's gum disease. For other uses like male-pattern baldness or eczema, we don't have solid evidence yet that it works.
Is mangosteen safe to take every day?
It's generally well tolerated as a food, but we don't have good long-term safety data on concentrated supplements like this one. If you're thinking of taking it daily long-term, talk it over with your pharmacist or doctor.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. There isn't enough safety information about supplement doses of mangosteen during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what's safe for you in those situations.
What side effects might I notice?
Some people in studies reported mild tiredness, headache, dizziness, digestive issues like bloating or nausea, and flu-like symptoms — but it's unclear if mangosteen caused them. Most people don't report problems.
Why does this product have alcohol in it?
The alcohol is part of the inactive ingredients — it helps preserve the extract and deliver it in liquid form.
