HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mangosteen Extract Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com

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

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: mangosteen fruit extract at 500 mg per serving. Mangosteen is a tropical fruit, and this extract concentrates its compounds.

The powder also includes maltodextrin as an inactive ingredient to give it texture and help it dissolve.

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 extract is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for periodontitis (gum inflammation and infection).

For androgenic alopecia (male-pattern hair loss), Alzheimer disease, and atopic dermatitis (eczema), there isn't enough reliable evidence yet to say whether it works. If you're considering it for one of those conditions, talk with us about what the current research shows.

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 as a food, but long-term safety of concentrated supplements hasn't been well studied. In reported trials at doses up to 560 mg daily, some people experienced mild tiredness, headache, dizziness, or nausea—though it's unclear whether mangosteen caused these.

Digestive side effects like constipation, bloating, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea have also been reported. The safety data advises against taking this supplement during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

There isn't enough information to know it's safe at supplement doses in either situation.

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.

Check this product if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel, and others)—mangosteen may increase bleeding risk. Also check it if you take donepezil (Aricept) for Alzheimer disease, as mangosteen could raise its brain levels.

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 extract may be worth considering if you're looking into natural support for gum health, but you'll want to check it against any blood thinners or Alzheimer medications you take first. Pregnant or breastfeeding?

Skip this one and talk to your doctor or us about alternatives. Run your medications through our interaction checker before you start.

Mangosteen Fruit Extract2 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.
