HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Pure Raspberry Ketone by Quality Nature Supplements
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: raspberry ketone, a compound found naturally in raspberries. The capsule also holds inactive ingredients — vegetable cellulose, calcium carbonate, and magnesium stearate — which are standard fillers and binders that help hold the capsule together.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for raspberry ketone is limited. According to the data we hold, there is insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for either of the conditions it's marketed for — hair loss (alopecia areata) and weight management (obesity).
That means the studies so far haven't been strong enough to confirm whether it actually works for these purposes.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Raspberry ketone is used safely in foods, but when taken as a concentrated supplement at high doses, human safety data is very limited. Case reports describe stimulant-like side effects — heart palpitations, rapid heartbeat, elevated blood pressure, and in one serious case, an abnormal heart rhythm.
A small number of people have also reported sweating, diarrhea, and shakiness after taking it. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know whether it's safe at those times.
If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this supplement.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you start, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any blood thinner — raspberry ketone may reduce its effectiveness and require a dose adjustment. Also check if you take any stimulant medications, as the supplement might increase your risk of heart-related side effects.
No other interactions are documented in our data for this ingredient.
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.
Raspberry ketone is most relevant if you're looking to address hair loss or weight management, though the evidence that it works is not established. The main concern is if you take warfarin or stimulant medications — you'll want to clear this with your doctor or pharmacist first, as it may interfere with how those drugs work.
Pregnant and breastfeeding people should avoid it. Run your medications through the interaction checker on this page to be sure.

Pure Raspberry Ketone by Quality Nature Supplements Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Pure Raspberry Ketone by Quality Nature Supplements contains one active ingredient — raspberry ketone — that interacts with medications.
The most serious concern is with blood thinners like warfarin (Coumadin): the supplement may reduce how well warfarin works, meaning you'd need a higher dose to stay protected from clots. This happened in a documented case where a patient's INR dropped while taking raspberry ketone and required a warfarin dose increase.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Raspberry ketone also carries a moderate interaction risk with stimulant drugs. Because it's structurally similar to synephrine (a known stimulant), it might increase the risk of heart-related side effects — palpitations, elevated blood pressure, and abnormal heart rhythms — when combined with stimulant medications.
Although we could check raspberry ketone's interactions, the data we hold is limited to these two drug categories. Altogether, these interactions span 174 individual medications.
If you take warfarin, any stimulant medication, or anything else regularly, run your exact medications through the search tool on this page before you start.

Raspberry Ketones
Stimulant Drugs
Theoretically, raspberry ketone might increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular effects with stimulant drugs.
Structurally, raspberry ketone resembles synephrine, a known stimulant agent. Heart palpitations, elevated blood pressure, coronary vasospasm, pulseless electrical activity arrest, and resistant polymorphic ventricular tachycardia have been reported in patients taking raspberry ketone.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, raspberry ketone might increase warfarin dose requirements.
In one case report, a patient taking warfarin 55 mg per week had a decrease in INR over a period of one month while taking raspberry ketone 250 mg daily. A warfarin dose increase to 70 mg per week was necessary to maintain a therapeutic INR while taking raspberry ketone. The mechanism for this potential interaction is not known.
