HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Noni Fruit 300 mg by Indiana Botanic Gardens

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: noni powder at 300 mg per capsule. Noni is a tropical fruit used in traditional medicine for a variety of purposes, though reliable evidence for most of those uses is limited.

The capsule also contains two inactive ingredients—rice flour and gelatin—that serve as filler and capsule material.

Does it work?

Not established
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
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Noni's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Immune support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Common cold, HIV/AIDS, Immune function, Infection prevention.
  • The closest evidence on file: Noni is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Common cold (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Noni is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for HIV/AIDS.

The evidence we hold for noni powder does not establish reliable effectiveness for any condition. Uses including asthma, atherosclerosis, athletic performance, burns, cancer, and cardiovascular disease are all rated as having insufficient reliable evidence to rate.

If you're considering noni for a specific health concern, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to discuss what the current evidence actually supports.

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 concerns worth knowing. First, rare cases of serious liver injury—including liver failure—have been associated with noni products, particularly noni juice; it's unclear whether noni itself or contaminants in some products are responsible.

Second, noni contains high levels of potassium, which is an issue if you take medications that raise potassium or if you have kidney problems. The most common side effects reported with oral noni are nausea and abdominal discomfort.

The safety data advises against using noni during pregnancy, as it has been used traditionally to cause abortion. There isn't enough safety data for breastfeeding; talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you if you're nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Noni

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.

Before taking noni, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood pressure medications (ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or other antihypertensives), potassium-sparing diuretics, blood thinners like warfarin, seizure medications like phenytoin, drugs known to damage the liver, or ranitidine for heartburn. These are all documented to interact with noni at Moderate or Minor severity.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Noni may be worth considering if you're exploring traditional remedies and your doctor or pharmacist clears it for you—but the interaction profile is substantial, especially if you take blood pressure medications or blood thinners. Anyone on potassium-raising drugs, antihypertensive medications, warfarin, phenytoin, or drugs that stress the liver should definitely check with their own healthcare provider before adding this product.

The evidence for what noni actually does is still limited, so have that conversation with your doctor or pharmacist first.

For each ingredient in Noni Fruit 300 mg with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Noni powder8 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 Fruit 300 mg by Indiana Botanic Gardens: Common Questions

Does Noni Fruit 300 mg by Indiana Botanic Gardens interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Noni Fruit 300 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 Fruit 300 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.
What is noni used for?
Noni is a tropical fruit used in traditional medicine, but we don't hold reliable evidence that it's effective for asthma, atherosclerosis, athletic performance, burns, cancer, or cardiovascular disease. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it makes sense for your specific situation.
Can I take noni if I'm pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against noni during pregnancy because it has been used traditionally to cause abortion. If you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant, skip this product and discuss alternatives with your doctor.
Can I take noni while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety data to know either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's appropriate for you if you're nursing.
What are the side effects of noni?
The most common side effects are nausea and abdominal discomfort. Rarely, noni has been linked to serious liver injury, though it's unclear whether noni itself or contaminants in some products caused that damage. High-quality safety studies haven't been done.
Does noni contain potassium?
Yes—noni juice contains significant amounts of potassium. This is why it can interact with blood pressure and kidney medications that raise potassium levels and increase the risk of dangerously high potassium in your blood.
Is noni likely to affect my blood thinner?
Yes—there's a documented case where noni juice reduced the effectiveness of warfarin. If you take warfarin or other blood thinners, check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking noni.
