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.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 3 active ingredients. Coenzyme Q-10 is an antioxidant your cells produce naturally — it's involved in energy production.

Joint Shield 5-Loxin Advanced Boswellia serrata extract is a plant resin traditionally used for joint health. FruiteX-B Calcium Fructoborate is a form of calcium and boron, minerals linked to bone and joint support.

The gummies also contain inactive ingredients (fillers and binders) including corn syrup, gelatin, citric acid, pectin, fruit and vegetable juices, natural flavor, and coconut oil.

Does it work?

Strong 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
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Joint and muscle support with energy.
  • We looked for evidence on: Osteoarthritis, Asthma, Statin-induced myalgia, Statin-induced myopathy, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Fatigue — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Coenzyme Q10 is rated "Likely Effective" for Coenzyme Q10 deficiency (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Boswellia Serrata is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoarthritis.
  • Also on file: Coenzyme Q10 is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Chemotherapy-related fatigue.

Coenzyme Q-10 is rated likely effective for CoQ-10 deficiency and possibly effective for fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, congestive heart failure, and diabetic nerve pain. Boswellia serrata extract is rated possibly effective for osteoarthritis, but the evidence is insufficient to rate it for hay fever, Alzheimer disease, asthma, or cluster headaches.

We hold no effectiveness data for FruiteX-B Calcium Fructoborate.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Coenzyme Q10 Boswellia Serrata

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Coenzyme Q-10 is generally well tolerated by most adults. Gastrointestinal side effects — appetite loss, diarrhea, heartburn, nausea, vomiting — occur in less than 1% of users; doses above 100 mg split into smaller amounts can help minimize these.

Headache, dizziness, and insomnia have been reported rarely. There isn't enough data to know if it's safe in pregnancy, so talk with your doctor.

Safety while breastfeeding hasn't been well studied — use caution and check with your doctor. Boswellia serrata extract is generally well tolerated short-term, though quality and dose vary widely between products.

Common side effects are abdominal pain, diarrhea, headache, heartburn, nausea, and itching. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy.

Safety while breastfeeding is unknown, so avoid it. A rare case of bezoar formation (a blockage) was reported when very large amounts of boswellia gum resin were consumed.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Boswellia Serrata, Coenzyme Q10.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs.
  • For scale: 1,088 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, double-check with your pharmacist if you take warfarin or other blood thinners (moderate risk), chemotherapy drugs like cyclophosphamide (moderate risk), blood pressure medications, or any drug processed through your liver's CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP1A2, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 pathways (moderate risk for all). Also check if you take immunosuppressants.

If you take any prescription medication, run it through the checker below before adding this supplement.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may be worth considering if you're interested in joint support and have no significant drug interactions. However, because Boswellia serrata can affect how your liver processes many common medications, and because Coenzyme Q-10 interacts with blood thinners and some chemotherapy drugs, you need to check your exact medications before you start.

Talk it over with your own doctor or pharmacist — they know your complete medication list and can tell you whether this product is right for you.

Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, Boswellia serrata might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Boswellia serrata gum resin inhibits CYP1A2 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, Boswellia serrata might increase the levels of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Boswellia serrata gum resin inhibits CYP2C19 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, Boswellia serrata might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Boswellia serrata gum resin inhibits CYP2C9 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, Boswellia serrata might increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Boswellia serrata gum resin inhibits CYP2D6 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, Boswellia serrata might increase or decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Boswellia serrata gum resin inhibits CYP3A4 enzymes. Other in vitro research shows that Boswellia serrata extract inhibits CYP3A4 enzymes at most concentrations, although it may modestly induce enzyme activity at low concentrations.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, Boswellia serrata might alter the effects of immunosuppressive drugs.
Some in vitro research suggests that Boswellia serrata extracts might inhibit mediators of autoimmune disorders such as leukotrienes and reduce production of antibodies and cell-mediated immunity. However, other in vitro research suggests that, when coupled with calcium ions, boswellic acids containing the keto group have immunostimulant properties within specific cell signaling pathways.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Coenzyme Q-103 drug types · 198 drugs

Alkylating Agents

Coenzyme Q10 has antioxidant effects. Theoretically, this may reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals.
Theoretically, antioxidants such as coenzyme Q10 might protect tumor cells from chemotherapeutic agents that work by inducing oxidative stress, such as alkylating agents (e.g., cyclophosphamide) and radiation therapy. The clinical importance of this interaction is unknown.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Coenzyme Q10 is chemically similar to menaquinone and might have vitamin K-like procoagulant effects, which could decrease the effects of warfarin.
Concomitant use of coenzyme Q10 and warfarin might reduce the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. Four cases of decreased warfarin efficacy thought to be due to coenzyme Q10 have been reported. However, there is some preliminary clinical research that suggests coenzyme Q10 might not significantly decrease the effects of warfarin in patients who have a stable INR.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, coenzyme Q10 might have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
Some clinical research shows that coenzyme Q10 can significantly lower blood pressure, although other studies have shown conflicting results.

Osteo Bi-Flex Edge Gummies Muscle Formula Orange by Osteo Bi-Flex: Common Questions

Does Osteo Bi-Flex Edge Gummies Muscle Formula Orange by Osteo Bi-Flex interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Osteo Bi-Flex Edge Gummies Muscle Formula Orange has a known interaction with 1,087 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Osteo Bi-Flex Edge Gummies Muscle Formula Orange contains 4 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.
Will this help with joint pain or arthritis?
Boswellia serrata extract in this product is rated possibly effective for osteoarthritis. Coenzyme Q-10 doesn't have established evidence for joint pain in our data. Results vary from person to person, so talk with your doctor about whether it might help your situation.
Is it safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Boswellia serrata is not recommended during pregnancy — the data advises against it. It's also not safe while breastfeeding. For Coenzyme Q-10, there isn't enough data to know either way during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so you'd need to talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Can Coenzyme Q-10 in this product lower my blood pressure?
Some clinical research shows CoQ-10 can lower blood pressure, though other studies are mixed. If you take blood pressure medication, this adds a theoretical minor interaction risk, so mention this product to your pharmacist.
What are the most common side effects?
CoQ-10 may cause gastrointestinal issues — appetite loss, diarrhea, heartburn, nausea — though these occur in less than 1%. Boswellia serrata commonly causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, headache, heartburn, nausea, and itching. Both are generally well tolerated overall.
Does Boswellia serrata interact with medications?
Yes. Boswellia serrata can slow how your liver breaks down many common drugs — including certain antidepressants, statins, and blood pressure medications — which can raise their levels in your blood. It may also affect immunosuppressants. Always check your specific medications with your pharmacist before starting.
I take warfarin — is this product safe for me?
No — not without checking with your pharmacist first. Coenzyme Q-10 in this product may reduce warfarin's blood-thinning effect, and four cases of decreased warfarin effectiveness from CoQ-10 have been reported. Your pharmacist needs to review whether this product is safe with your warfarin dose.
