HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Moringa 1500 mg by SuperSmart
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: moringa oleifera leaf extract at 1500 mg per serving. Moringa is a plant traditionally used in several parts of the world, and the leaf extract is what's concentrated here.
It also contains two inactive ingredients — acacia gum and white rice flour — which are fillers that help hold the capsule together.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for moringa's effectiveness isn't established in the data we hold. The product is marketed for iron deficiency anemia, asthma, athletic performance, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, and high cholesterol, but for all of these conditions our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate whether it works.
That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the research available isn't strong enough to say one way or the other.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Moringa leaf appears generally well tolerated when used as food, but high-quality safety studies are limited. The most common side effect is transient diarrhea — in one trial, about a quarter of people taking 8 grams daily experienced it.
Rare allergic reactions, including severe ones, have been reported. There's an important caution: the root and bark may stimulate the uterus and lack safety data, so avoid medicinal amounts of those parts if you're pregnant or could become pregnant.
Although moringa leaf has been traditionally used to boost milk supply, safety data for breastfeeding isn't well studied, so talk with your pharmacist before using it.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check with your pharmacist if you take any CYP3A4 substrates (a large group of common medications), levothyroxine for thyroid problems, P-glycoprotein substrates, diabetes medications, or drugs broken down by CYP1A2. The effects aren't always predictable, so it's important to confirm your specific medications are safe to combine.
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.
Moringa leaf extract is generally well tolerated as food, but it interacts with a wide range of medications — especially those processed by your liver and some thyroid and diabetes drugs. If you take any prescription medications, check them against the interaction tool on this page and talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Pregnant people should avoid medicinal amounts of the root and bark.

Organic Moringa 1500 mg by SuperSmart Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Organic Moringa 1500 mg by SuperSmart does interact with several medication types, most notably through its effects on how your body processes drugs.
The biggest concern is with medications that depend on a liver enzyme called CYP3A4 (cytochrome P450 3A4 substrates) — moringa's effect on this enzyme is unpredictable: in the lab it looks like it might block the enzyme in some cases and speed it up in others, which could raise or lower drug levels. The same uncertainty applies to P-glycoprotein substrates, drugs your kidneys transport; moringa might increase their levels in your blood.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
There are also moderate concerns with levothyroxine (Synthroid), used for thyroid problems — moringa may work against it by blocking the conversion of thyroid hormone in your body. Minor interactions are documented with diabetes medications (moringa might lower blood sugar on top of what your drug does) and drugs metabolized by another liver enzyme, CYP1A2; nevirapine (an HIV medication) is unlikely to be significantly affected, even though theory suggested a risk.
Altogether, these interactions span 870 individual medications. Use the search tool on this page to check your exact medications before you start moringa, and talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you.

For each ingredient in Organic Moringa 1500 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.
Moringa oleifera Leaf Extract
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, moringa might increase or decrease levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Some in vitro research suggests that moringa inhibits cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). However, other in vitro research suggests that moringa extract induces CYP3A4 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine, which is partially metabolized by CYP3A4, when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)
Theoretically, moringa leaf can antagonize the effects of levothyroxine.
Animal research suggests that moringa aqueous leaf extract might reduce serum triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations by inhibiting the peripheral conversion of thyroxine (T4) to T3.
P-Glycoprotein Substrates
Theoretically, moringa leaf extract might increase the levels and clinical effects of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa leaf extract inhibits renal P-glycoprotein transport activity. So far, this reaction has not been reported in humans.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, moringa might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Animal research shows that moringa can lower blood glucose levels. However, research in humans has not shown consistent blood glucose lowering effects.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, moringa might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
Nevirapine (Viramune)
Moringa leaf is unlikely to have a clinically significant interaction with nevirapine.
Nevirapine is partially metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). In vitro evidence suggests that moringa inhibits CYP3A4. However, a pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in nevirapine pharmacokinetics when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.
