HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Raspberry Ketones Powder 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

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: raspberry ketone at 500 mg per serving. It's a compound found naturally in red raspberries, though the supplement form is produced synthetically.

There are no other inactive ingredients in this powder.

Does it work?

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 in our data. For obesity and alopecia areata (a hair loss condition), the research we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the studies we have aren't robust enough to say either way.

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 ketone is used safely in foods, but human safety data at high supplement doses is very limited. Because it structurally resembles a stimulant, stimulant-related side effects are possible, though not well studied in humans.

Heart palpitations, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, and spasm of coronary arteries have been reported. One serious case reported a life-threatening heart rhythm that resolved after stopping the supplement.

The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient information. If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.

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, check with your pharmacist if you take blood thinners like warfarin (Coumadin) — raspberry ketone may lower their effectiveness and require a dose adjustment. Also double-check if you take any stimulant drugs, as raspberry ketone may increase your risk of heart-related side effects like palpitations and high blood pressure.

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 Powder is a single-ingredient supplement with limited human safety data at high doses. If you take a blood thinner like warfarin or any stimulant medication, check with your pharmacist before starting — it may reduce how well your blood thinner works or raise your risk of heart side effects.

Anyone with a history of heart problems should also talk to their pharmacist first.

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 Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Raspberry Ketones Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Raspberry Ketones Powder 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 Powder 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.
Can I take this if I'm on warfarin?
You should not take this without talking to your pharmacist first. Raspberry ketone has been shown in at least one case to reduce how well warfarin works — the patient's dose had to be increased to stay therapeutic. Your INR would need close monitoring if you used them together.
What are the side effects?
Heart palpitations, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, and coronary artery spasm have been reported after taking raspberry ketone. A small number of people have also experienced sweating, diarrhea, and shakiness. One serious case reported a dangerous heart rhythm problem that resolved after stopping the supplement.
Is this safe during pregnancy?
No — there isn't enough safety information. The data advises against concentrated supplements during pregnancy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what's right for you.
Is this safe while breastfeeding?
No — there isn't enough safety information. The data advises against supplement use while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Does raspberry ketone actually work for weight loss or hair loss?
The evidence we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate whether it works for obesity or alopecia areata (a hair loss condition). That means the studies available aren't robust enough to say yes or no yet.
Why do I need to be careful with stimulants?
Raspberry ketone is structurally similar to synephrine, a known stimulant. Together with stimulant drugs, it may increase your risk of heart-related side effects like palpitations and elevated blood pressure. If you take any stimulant medication, check with your pharmacist first.
