HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Amla 500 mg by Amazing India
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
This product contains one active ingredient: organic Amla (Indian gooseberry) at 500 mg per tablet. The inactive ingredients are rice dextrin, potato starch, organic gum acacia, and organic rice concentrate — all excipients that bind and fill the tablet.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence we hold shows Indian gooseberry is possibly effective for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and dyslipidemia (abnormal blood fat levels). For high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) and male-pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia), the evidence isn't strong enough to rate — so we can't say whether it works for those purposes based on the data we have.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Indian gooseberry is generally well tolerated when eaten as food, but safety data for supplement doses is more limited. During pregnancy, there isn't enough reliable safety information — you'll want to talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether to use it.
The same applies to breastfeeding: the data on file advises against it due to insufficient safety information. In clinical trials, a small number of participants reported stomach discomfort or indigestion, and one or two reported fatigue or muscle pain — but these were uncommon.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you use blood thinners (anticoagulants), antiplatelet drugs, aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), or diabetes medications — all carry Moderate interaction risk with Indian gooseberry and may need dose adjustments or closer monitoring.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Organic Amla 500 mg may help with reflux or cholesterol, but it's not risk-free if you take blood thinners, antiplatelet drugs, or diabetes medications. The bleeding and low-blood-sugar risks are real.
Check your exact medications before you start, and have a conversation with your doctor or pharmacist — especially if you're on warfarin, aspirin, Plavix, or insulin.

Organic Amla 500 mg by Amazing India Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Organic Amla 500 mg by Amazing India interacts with blood thinners (anticoagulants), antiplatelet drugs, aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), and diabetes medications — all at Moderate severity.
The most serious concern is bleeding risk: clinical research shows that 500 mg of Indian gooseberry taken as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet clumping by 24% to 36%, lengthens bleeding time by 3.8–5.9 seconds, and affects blood clotting. This effect carries real risk if you're already on blood thinners or aspirin.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Indian gooseberry can also lower blood sugar. If you take diabetes medications, this supplement may push your glucose too low (hypoglycemia), and your dose might need adjusting.
Research shows the fruit or extract lowers blood glucose levels on its own and amplifies that effect when combined with diabetes drugs.
Altogether, these interactions span 208 individual medications. Use the interaction checker on this page to search your exact medications before starting, and talk with your doctor or pharmacist — especially if you're on blood thinners, antiplatelet drugs, or diabetes medications.

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg, as a single dose or for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg alone. Until more is known, use caution when taking Indian gooseberry in combination with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Taking Indian gooseberry with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry fruit or fruit extract alone or in conjunction with antidiabetes medications can lower blood glucose levels. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.
Aspirin
Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with aspirin; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with ecosprin 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus ecosprin 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with ecosprin 75 mg alone.
Clopidogrel (Plavix)
Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with clopidogrel; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg alone.
