HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mushroom Complex by Rise-N-Shine
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
Rise-N-Shine Mushroom Complex contains 5 active ingredients: fruiting body extracts of lion's mane, reishi, shiitake, chaga, and maitake mushrooms. These are combined with inactive ingredients including hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (a capsule binder), magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide.
Each mushroom extract brings its own compounds — polysaccharides, beta-glucans, and other bioactive substances — that different cultures have used for centuries in foods and traditional preparations. This formula bundles all five into a single capsule.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for what these mushrooms actually do is still developing. For lion's mane, there's insufficient reliable evidence to rate its effects on cognitive function, Alzheimer disease, anxiety, athletic performance, or cancer.
Reishi similarly lacks solid evidence for most claimed uses, and the data we have suggests it may be ineffective for high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia). Shiitake, chaga, and maitake all show insufficient evidence for their marketed purposes — ranging from immune support to cancer-related side effects to blood sugar control.
In short, none of these ingredients has established effectiveness in our data for the conditions typically associated with them.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Lion's mane, reishi, shiitake, chaga, and maitake are all generally well tolerated when used as food, but long-term safety of concentrated supplements hasn't been thoroughly studied. The most common side effects across these ingredients are mild gastrointestinal ones — nausea, stomach upset, bloating, diarrhea — and occasionally skin rashes.
Raw shiitake mushroom is a particular concern; it can cause a skin condition called shiitake dermatitis (eruptions resembling whiplash marks) and, in rare cases, intestinal blockage. Chaga contains high oxalate levels, and there have been two cases of kidney failure and one of acute kidney injury tied to excessive consumption.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding safety data are not on file for any of the five ingredients in this product. The safety notes for each advise against use during pregnancy and lactation because data are insufficient to know either way.
Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you if you're pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin (Coumadin) or other blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs — maitake may boost warfarin's effect, and lion's mane, reishi, and chaga all theoretically raise bleeding risk. Also double-check if you take diabetes medications (lion's mane, reishi, chaga, and maitake may lower blood sugar further), blood pressure drugs (reishi and maitake could increase the effect), immunosuppressants (lion's mane, shiitake, and chaga might interfere), or any medication metabolized by the liver enzyme CYP2D6 (shiitake may reduce its levels).
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This mushroom blend may appeal to people interested in traditional fungal supplements, but the evidence that it actually works for any specific condition isn't established in our data. Before you start, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners, diabetes medications, blood pressure drugs, immunosuppressants, or drugs metabolized by the liver enzyme CYP2D6 — the interactions are documented enough to warrant a conversation.
Expect mild digestive side effects as the most likely risk, and avoid it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding unless your healthcare provider clears it.

Mushroom Complex by Rise-N-Shine Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Rise-N-Shine Mushroom Complex contains five mushroom extracts — lion's mane, reishi, shiitake, chaga, and maitake — that together have documented interactions with medications.
The most serious single interaction is maitake's potential to increase warfarin's (Coumadin) blood-thinning effect, a case that's been reported in one patient who saw an elevated INR after taking maitake for a week. Altogether, these interactions span 654 individual medications.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Beyond warfarin, multiple ingredients in this product may increase bleeding risk with blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (lion's mane, reishi, and chaga all show this theoretically). Lion's mane, reishi, shiitake, chaga, and maitake may all affect blood sugar control when combined with diabetes medications.
Lion's mane, shiitake, and chaga may interfere with immune-suppressing drugs. Additionally, shiitake may reduce levels of certain medications broken down by a liver enzyme called CYP2D6, and both reishi and maitake could lower blood pressure further in people already on blood pressure medications.
Most of these are based on lab or animal research rather than confirmed human cases, but they're worth checking before you start. Use the medication checker on this page to see if any of your prescriptions appear on the list of potentially affected drugs.

For each ingredient in Mushroom Complex with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Reishi Mushroom Fruiting Body Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, high doses of reishi mushroom might increase the risk of bleeding.
A dose of 1.5 grams daily of reishi mushroom does not seem to decrease platelet aggregation, but a higher dose of 3 grams daily does.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, reishi mushroom might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that reishi mushroom decreases blood sugar. However, in patients with type 2 diabetes, taking reishi mushroom does not reduce fasting glucose levels, and its effects on glycated hemoglobin are inconsistent.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, concurrent use of reishi mushroom with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Reishi mushroom has shown hypotensive activity in animal research. Clinical evidence suggests that reishi mushroom reduces blood pressure in some, but not all, patients with hypertension.
Lion's Mane Mushroom Fruiting Body Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, lion's mane mushroom may increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro research suggests that lion's mane mushroom extracts can inhibit platelet aggregation.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, lion's mane mushroom may have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that an aqueous extract of lion's mane mushroom can reduce serum glucose and increase serum insulin.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, concurrent use of lion's mane mushroom might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In animal and in vitro research, lion's mane mushroom polysaccharides stimulate the immune system.
Chaga Mushroom Fruiting Body Extract
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, chaga may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that chaga extract can inhibit platelet aggregation. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, taking chaga with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research suggests that chaga might decrease blood glucose levels and increase insulin levels. This has not been reported in humans.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, chaga might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In vitro research suggests that certain constituents of chaga stimulate immune function. This has not been reported in humans.
Shiitake Mushroom fruiting body extract
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates
Theoretically, shiitake mushroom might decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro studies suggest that the shiitake mushroom extract AHCC might induce the CYP2D6 enzyme. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, taking shiitake mushroom might decrease the effects of immunosuppressive therapy.
In vitro evidence suggests that shiitake mushroom extracts stimulate immune function.
Maitake Mushroom Fruiting Body Extract
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, combining maitake mushroom with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking maitake mushroom polysaccharide (MMP) can lower blood glucose levels in patients with types 2 diabetes.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, combining maitake mushroom with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research shows that maitake mushroom can lower blood pressure.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
There is limited evidence that maitake mushroom may increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.
In a case report, a patient previously stabilized on warfarin developed an elevated international normalized ratio (INR) of 5.1 after taking maitake mushroom (Grifron-Pro Maitake D-Fraction) 1 drop/kg daily in three divided doses for one week. The elevated INR resolved after holding warfarin for two days, then reducing the dose by 11%. It is thought that the beta-glucan constituent of maitake mushroom might cause warfarin dissociation from proteins, resulting in increased free warfarin levels and increased warfarin effects.
