HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Noni 500 mg by Swanson

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
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.

Noni 500 mg is a single-ingredient product — each capsule contains 500 mg of noni fruit. The inactive ingredients are gelatin (the capsule itself), rice flour, magnesium stearate, and silica, which are fillers and binders.

Does it work?

No specific claim
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
General wellness

This Noni product is marketed for general wellness, not a specific health condition, so there's no single claim to grade — see Noni's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“promotes overall vitality and wellness”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.

The evidence for noni isn't established in the data we hold. Our records show insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for asthma, atherosclerosis, athletic performance, burns, cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

If you're considering noni for a specific health goal, that's a conversation worth having with your pharmacist or doctor.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Noni

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.

Noni is generally well tolerated in moderate amounts, but there are two important cautions. Rare cases of liver injury — including liver failure — have been reported with noni products, though it's not always clear whether noni itself or contaminants in the products were responsible.

The most common mild side effects from taking noni by mouth are nausea and abdominal discomfort. Because noni has traditionally been used to cause abortion, the safety data advises against using it during pregnancy.

There isn't enough safety information available for breastfeeding, so it's best avoided then too.

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 — Noni.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 543 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.

Double-check your medications if you take blood pressure drugs (antihypertensives), ACE inhibitors, ARBs, potassium-sparing diuretics, the blood thinner warfarin, the seizure drug phenytoin, heartburn medications like ranitidine, or any drug that can harm the liver. All of these have documented moderate (or in ranitidine's case, minor) interactions with noni.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take blood pressure medications, potassium-raising heart drugs, blood thinners, seizure medications, or heartburn drugs, you'll want to check your specific medications with the tool on this page before starting noni. Anyone with liver concerns should be extra cautious.

Talk to your pharmacist about whether noni makes sense for you.

Noni8 drug types · 542 drugs

Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)

Theoretically, combining noni and ACE inhibitors might increase the risk of hyperkalemia.
Noni juice contains significant amounts of potassium, about 6 mEq/100 mL juice. This may increase the risk for hyperkalemia when used in conjunction with ACE inhibitors, which can also increase potassium levels.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Arbs)

Theoretically, combining noni and ARBs might increase the risk of hyperkalemia.
Noni juice contains significant amounts of potassium, about 6 mEq/100 mL juice. This may increase the risk for hyperkalemia when used in conjunction with ARBs, which can also increase potassium levels.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, noni may increase the risk of hypotension when used in combination with antihypertensive drugs.
Preliminary clinical research suggests that drinking noni juice can reduce blood pressure in individuals with hypertension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking noni with hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver damage.
There is concern that noni might cause hepatotoxicity in some patients. Advise patients against combining noni with potentially hepatotoxic drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenytoin (Dilantin)

Theoretically, taking noni fruit juice concomitantly with phenytoin may lower phenytoin levels and increase the risk of seizures.
In one case report, an adult taking phenytoin for partial seizures experienced low serum phenytoin levels while taking noni juice 90-200 mL daily. Serum phenytoin levels increased after decreasing noni juice consumption; similarly, serum phenytoin levels decreased after increasing noni juice consumption. Some researchers believe noni juice may induce cytochrome P450 2C9 enzymes, which would decrease phenytoin levels, but this has not been well studied. Patients may need additional monitoring when starting or stopping noni juice supplementation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics

Theoretically, combing noni and a potassium-sparing diuretic might increase the risk of hyperkalemia.
Noni juice contains significant amounts of potassium, about 6 mEq/100 mL juice. This may increase the risk for hyperkalemia when used in conjunction with potassium-sparing diuretics, which can also increase potassium levels.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, taking noni juice concomitantly with warfarin might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
In one case, a 41-year-old patient stabilized on warfarin had a decreased international normalized ratio (INR) following consumption of a specific commercial noni juice product (Noni juice 4 Everything). While the patient was still taking noni juice, an increase in warfarin dose did not produce an increase in INR. However, it should be noted that this particular product contained extracts and derivatives from more than 115 components, many of which contained vitamin K. Furthermore, vitamin K was listed as a separate ingredient of the product, suggesting that the product was possibly fortified with vitamin K. It has not been verified that noni fruit alone contains a significant amount of vitamin K or interacts with warfarin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Ranitidine (Zantac)

Taking noni fruit with ranitidine might increase the levels and clinical effects of ranitidine.
Clinical evidence shows that taking an aqueous extract of noni fruit 30 minutes prior to taking a single oral dose of ranitidine can increase the rate of absorption and plasma concentration of ranitidine.

Noni 500 mg by Swanson: Common Questions

Does Noni 500 mg by Swanson interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Noni 500 mg has a known interaction with 542 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Noni 500 mg 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.
Can I take noni if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against noni during pregnancy because it's been traditionally used to cause abortion. There also isn't enough safety information for breastfeeding, so it's best avoided. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about alternatives if you're pregnant or nursing.
What are the most common side effects?
The most common ones from taking noni by mouth are nausea and abdominal discomfort. Serious side effects like liver damage are rare, but they have been reported. High-quality studies of side effects haven't been done, so we don't have a complete picture.
Does noni actually work for anything?
The evidence we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for asthma, atherosclerosis, athletic performance, burns, cancer, or cardiovascular disease. If you're thinking about noni for a specific reason, ask your pharmacist what the research actually shows.
Is noni safe for my liver?
Noni is generally well tolerated, but there's a rare risk of liver injury — including liver failure — reported in previous cases. If you have liver concerns or are taking medications that affect the liver, check with your pharmacist first.
What's in these capsules besides noni?
Each capsule contains 500 mg of noni fruit plus fillers and binders: gelatin (the capsule material), rice flour, magnesium stearate, and silica. No other active ingredients.
