HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Triphala Tablets 500 mg by Grenera

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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Triphala, Powder” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

This product contains 3 active ingredients: triphala (a traditional blend), haritaki powder, and amalaki fruit powder (Indian gooseberry). Together they're meant to support digestive and overall wellness.

The only inactive ingredient listed is gum acacia, a binder.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Indian Gooseberry's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Indian Gooseberry for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Dyslipidemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

For Indian gooseberry (the ingredient we have data on), the evidence is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for reflux (GERD) and high cholesterol (dyslipidemia), meaning some research supports its use but the evidence isn't definitive.

For hair loss and cholesterol levels, there isn't enough reliable evidence to make a rating. We don't hold effectiveness data for the other two ingredients in the blend.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Indian Gooseberry

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.

Indian gooseberry is generally well tolerated as a food, but safety data for supplement doses is limited. In clinical trials, a small number of people reported stomach discomfort or indigestion, one reported fatigue, and a few reported musculoskeletal pain.

There isn't enough safety data to recommend this during breastfeeding. Pregnancy safety data is also not on file.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

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 — Indian Gooseberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 208 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 this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants), aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), or any other antiplatelet drugs — Indian gooseberry may increase bleeding risk. Also check if you take diabetes medications, as this ingredient may lower blood sugar and require a dose adjustment.

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
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.

Organic Triphala Tablets 500 mg by Grenera : Common Questions

Does Organic Triphala Tablets 500 mg by Grenera interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Triphala Tablets 500 mg has a known interaction with 208 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Triphala Tablets 500 mg contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 triphala used for?
Triphala is a traditional three-part blend meant to support digestion and general wellness. For the ingredient we have data on (Indian gooseberry), there's some evidence it may help with reflux and cholesterol, but the research isn't conclusive.
Can I take this if I'm on blood thinners?
Not without checking first. Indian gooseberry in this product may increase bleeding risk when combined with blood thinners, aspirin, or drugs like clopidogrel. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it alongside those medications.
Can I take this if I have diabetes?
You'll need to check with your doctor or pharmacist. Indian gooseberry can lower blood sugar on its own and may increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) if you're already on diabetes medications. Your doses might need adjusting.
What side effects should I watch for?
In trials, a small number of people reported stomach discomfort or indigestion. One person reported fatigue, and a few reported muscle or joint pain. If you notice any of these, stop and talk with your pharmacist.
Is this safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough data to know either way. It's best to avoid this during breastfeeding. For pregnancy, talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they can give you personalized advice based on your situation.
Why does the page say you couldn't check some ingredients?
We hold no monograph (reference data) for haritaki and bibhitaki powders, the other two parts of the triphala blend. So we can't tell you if they interact with medications or what their side effects are. The Indian gooseberry ingredient we could check.
