HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Raspberry Ketones (500 mg) by BulkSupplements.com

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 10, 2026

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: 500 mg of raspberry ketone per capsule. Raspberry ketone is a natural compound found in red raspberries; it's what gives them part of their flavor and aroma.

The capsule itself is made from bovine gelatin, an inactive ingredient that holds the powder.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient Raspberry Ketone product and its label doesn't state a use — see Raspberry Ketone's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for raspberry ketone isn't established yet. Our data rates it as having insufficient reliable evidence for both alopecia areata (hair loss in patches) and obesity.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work—it means the human studies so far aren't strong enough to say one way or the other.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Raspberry Ketone

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.

Raspberry ketones are used safely in foods, but human safety data for the high doses found in supplements is very limited. Because the compound resembles a stimulant, stimulant-related side effects are possible: case reports describe heart palpitations, a rapid or pounding heartbeat, high blood pressure, coronary vessel tightening, and in rare cases, serious heart rhythm problems.

A few people have also reported sweating, diarrhea, and shakiness. During pregnancy, there isn't enough safety information, so concentrated supplements are not advised.

Similarly, there isn't enough data to know whether it's safe while breastfeeding—talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you in either situation.

Meds to double-check

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 — Raspberry Ketone.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 174 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 doctor or pharmacist if you take any stimulant drugs—including prescription stimulants like methylphenidate or amphetamines, or over-the-counter products with stimulant ingredients. Also verify if you're on warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner, because this supplement may reduce how well warfarin works and could require a dose adjustment.

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 might interest you if you're exploring options for weight or hair health, but the evidence doesn't yet show it works. More importantly, if you take any stimulant medications or warfarin, this product carries real interaction risks you'll want to discuss with your doctor or pharmacist before you start.

Pregnant or breastfeeding? Check with your healthcare provider first, because safety data is limited.

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Raspberry Ketones (500 mg) by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Raspberry Ketones (500 mg) by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Raspberry Ketones (500 mg) has a known interaction with 174 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Raspberry Ketones (500 mg) contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 exactly is raspberry ketone?
It's a natural compound found in red raspberries—the chemical that gives them part of their flavor and smell. In this supplement, it's a concentrated 500 mg dose per capsule.
Can raspberry ketone help me lose weight or regrow hair?
The evidence isn't clear enough to say. Our data rates it as having insufficient reliable evidence for both obesity and patchy hair loss (alopecia areata). You'd want to talk with your doctor about whether it's worth trying.
What side effects might I notice?
Raspberry ketone resembles a stimulant, so stimulant-type side effects are possible, though they're not well studied in humans. Case reports mention heart palpitations, rapid heartbeat, high blood pressure, and in rare cases serious heart rhythm problems. Some people have also reported sweating, diarrhea, and shakiness.
Is it safe to take while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety information for either. The data advises against concentrated supplements during pregnancy and during breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your specific situation before starting.
Why does this interact with so many medications?
This product itself has one ingredient and one monograph (Raspberry Ketone), but because that one ingredient interacts with many different drugs across different categories—stimulants, warfarin, and others—the total count across all affected medications is 174. The interaction risk lies with the supplement, not with the number of separate ingredients.
