HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Resinall E by Health Concerns

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 11 active ingredients.
  • “Enzyme Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (600 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Proprietary Herbal Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,354 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Resinall E contains 11 active ingredients: rutin, papain, bromelain, Borneol, Indian Frankincense gum extract (Boswellia serrata), safflower, Tienchi ginseng root extract (Panax notoginseng), trypsin, chymotrypsin, myrrh, and Corydalis yanhusuo. Collectively, these are herbs and plant enzymes traditionally used in formulations aimed at supporting inflammatory or circulatory wellness, though the evidence for efficacy is limited for most uses.

The product also contains inactive ingredients — hypromellose (a capsule component) and rice bran — as fillers and binders.

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

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

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports its ingredients 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Cataracts — rated "Effective" (Chymotrypsin) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Angina — rated "Possibly Effective" (Panax Notoginseng) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Intracranial hemorrhage — rated "Possibly Effective" (Panax Notoginseng) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Osteoarthritis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Boswellia Serrata) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Stroke — rated "Possibly Effective" (Panax Notoginseng) (Natural Medicines).

For most of the conditions these ingredients are used for, the evidence isn't established in the data we hold. Chymotrypsin is rated Effective for cataracts.

Boswellia serrata (Indian Frankincense) is rated Possibly Effective for osteoarthritis, and Panax notoginseng is rated Possibly Effective for angina, stroke, and intracranial hemorrhage. The remaining ingredients — rutin, papain, bromelain, safflower, trypsin, myrrh, and Corydalis yanhusuo — carry Insufficient Reliable Evidence for their respective uses, meaning human trials haven't yet supported their claimed benefits.

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 9 of the 10 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 10 of 10.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 10 of 10.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Most ingredients are generally well tolerated short-term, though long-term safety data are limited for rutin, bromelain, Boswellia serrata, and several others. Rutin may cause headache, flushing, or rashes in some people.

Papain can trigger allergic reactions (itchy watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, abdominal cramps, diarrhea) and at high doses may cause severe gastritis or esophageal perforation. Bromelain commonly causes diarrhea, flatulence, gastric upset, and headache; allergic reactions are possible.

Boswellia serrata may cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, headache, heartburn, itching, or nausea. Safflower has been linked to liver failure in case reports of overuse.

Panax notoginseng can cause dry mouth, flushed skin, insomnia, nausea, nervousness, rash, or vomiting. Myrrh may cause diarrhea or dermatitis.

Corydalis yanhusuo has no adverse effects documented in our data but carries multiple drug interactions. For pregnancy and breastfeeding: Rutin is Likely Safe in pregnancy but should be avoided while breastfeeding.

Papain is Possibly Unsafe in pregnancy and breastfeeding data are absent. Bromelain should be avoided in both pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Boswellia serrata is Likely Safe in pregnancy and lactation despite traditional concerns. Safflower has conflicting ratings — it's Likely Safe and Possibly Safe but also Likely Unsafe in pregnancy depending on the preparation; avoid medicinal amounts if pregnant.

Panax notoginseng is Likely Unsafe in pregnancy and breastfeeding. Trypsin and chymotrypsin lack established pregnancy/lactation safety data and should be avoided.

Myrrh is Likely Unsafe in pregnancy and lactation data are absent. Corydalis yanhusuo is Likely Unsafe in both pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about any of these ingredients if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Resinall E is a multi-ingredient enzyme and herbal blend with limited evidence for most of its claimed uses — chymotrypsin for cataracts and Boswellia or Panax notoginseng for circulatory or joint concerns are the exceptions. It carries significant interactions with blood thinners, blood pressure drugs, diabetes medications, and several enzyme-metabolized prescriptions, as well as CNS depressants.

If you take any regular medications — especially warfarin, aspirin, blood pressure or diabetes drugs, sleep aids, or antidepressants — check each one against the interaction tool below before starting. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you and your current health needs.

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

Safflower3 drug types · 208 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

High doses of safflower oil might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Small clinical studies show that taking safflower oil, approximately 55 grams daily for 2-3 weeks, decreases platelet aggregation. However, taking lower doses of safflower oil, such as 5 grams daily for 4 weeks, does not seem to affect platelet function. In one case report, a 74-year-old male stabilized on warfarin developed urinary tract bleeding and an elevated INR after taking a safflower extract 20 grams daily for 14 days.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, safflower oil might alter the effects of antidiabetes drugs.
Some clinical research shows that taking safflower oil 10 grams daily for 3 weeks can increase fasting blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, clinical research in patients with metabolic syndrome with or without impaired glucose tolerance shows that taking safflower oil 8 grams daily for 12 weeks reduces fasting glucose levels by around 8 mg/dL. Some clinical research also shows that taking safflower oil 8 grams daily for 16 weeks does not affect fasting glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Warfarin

Theoretically, safflower oil might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with warfarin.
In one case report, a 74-year-old male stabilized on warfarin developed urinary tract bleeding and an elevated INR after taking a safflower extract 20 grams daily for 14 days.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Tienchi ginseng root extract4 drug types · 207 drugs

Aspirin

Theoretically, taking Panax notoginseng concomitantly with aspirin may increase the risk of adverse effects from both products.
Animal research shows that taking Panax notoginseng extract with aspirin increases blood levels of salicylic acid by approximately 50% and blood levels of Panax notoginseng by 75% to 196%. This effect may be due to increased absorption of both products.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Caffeine

Theoretically, taking Panax notoginseng may decrease the levels and clinical effects of caffeine.
Animal research shows that administering Panax notoginseng intravenously for 7 days before intraperitoneal injection of caffeine can decrease maximal blood levels of caffeine by 37%. This interaction is attributed to the ability of Panax notoginseng to increase the activity of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, taking Panax notoginseng might reduce the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
Animal research shows that administering Panax notoginseng intravenously for 7 days before intraperitoneal injection of caffeine can decrease maximal blood levels of caffeine by 37%. This interaction was attributed to the ability of Panax notoginseng to increase the activity of CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, taking Panax notoginseng concomitantly with warfarin may increase the risk of bleeding.
Animal research shows that taking Panax notoginseng concomitantly with warfarin increases plasma warfarin levels, prothrombin time, and international normalized ratio when compared with control. In vitro research also suggests that Panax notoginseng may downregulate expression of cytochrome P450 3A4 enzymes, which may affect warfarin metabolism.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Bromelain2 drug types · 141 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Bromelain may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
There is one case report of a patient experiencing minor bruising while taking bromelain with naproxen. Bromelain is thought to have antiplatelet activity. Whether this interaction is of concern with topical bromelain is unclear. Interference with coagulation of burn wounds has been reported in a patient receiving bromelain-based enzymatic debridement. However, observational research has found that topical bromelain debridement is not associated with increases or decreases in laboratory markers of coagulation when compared with surgical debridement.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, bromelain might increase levels of tetracycline antibiotics.
Laboratory research suggests that bromelain might increase the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics. However, a study in healthy adults reported no difference in tetracycline plasma levels when a 500 mg dose was taken with or without bromelain 80 mg.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B

Myrrh2 drug types · 88 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, myrrh might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that myrrh has hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, myrrh might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
In one case, a patient who was previously stable on warfarin had a significant decline in international normalized ratio (INR) following consumption of an aqueous extract of myrrh.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Rutin1 drug type · 86 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking rutin with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research suggests that rutin has hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Papain1 drug type · 2 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, papain might increase the effects and side effects of warfarin.
In one case report, a patient previously stable on warfarin was found to have an international normalization ratio (INR) of 7.4, which was attributed to ingestion of a supplement containing papain from papaya extract.

Resinall E by Health Concerns: Common Questions

Does Resinall E by Health Concerns interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Resinall E has a known interaction with 1,311 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Resinall E contains 11 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.
Is Resinall E safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Several ingredients have safety concerns in pregnancy or breastfeeding — Panax notoginseng and Corydalis yanhusuo are rated Likely Unsafe in both, papain is Possibly Unsafe in pregnancy, and myrrh is Likely Unsafe in pregnancy. Others like Boswellia serrata are rated Likely Safe. Because the ingredients have mixed ratings and dosing is variable, it's best to talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
What are the enzymes in this product supposed to do?
Resinall E contains three enzymes — bromelain (from pineapple), trypsin, and chymotrypsin — which are proteases (they break down proteins). They're traditionally used to support wound healing, reduce swelling, and ease muscle soreness, though evidence for most of these uses is insufficient in our data. Chymotrypsin is rated Effective for cataracts, but that's an eye-specific use.
Can I take this with my blood thinner or aspirin?
No — not without checking with your doctor first. Bromelain, safflower, Panax notoginseng, and Corydalis yanhusuo all carry Moderate interactions with blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs, raising your bleeding risk. Papain and myrrh also interact with warfarin specifically. Your doctor may need to adjust your dose or monitor you more closely, but this isn't a decision to make on your own.
Will Resinall E help with inflammation or joint pain?
Boswellia serrata (Indian Frankincense gum extract) in this product is rated Possibly Effective for osteoarthritis, so it may help with joint inflammation. The other ingredients haven't been shown to be effective for these uses in our data — rutin, papain, bromelain, myrrh, and the others are all rated Insufficient Reliable Evidence for inflammatory or pain conditions.
What side effects might I get from taking this?
The most common are gastrointestinal — diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, heartburn, or stomach pain, especially from the enzyme blend. Rutin may cause headache, flushing, or rashes. Panax notoginseng can cause insomnia, nervousness, or dry mouth. Papain and bromelain can trigger allergic reactions (itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing) in sensitive people. If you have a known allergy to pineapple or papaya, avoid this product.
I take metformin for diabetes. Is this product safe with it?
Corydalis yanhusuo in this product has a Moderate interaction with metformin — it may increase the drug's levels and side effects in your body. Talk to your doctor before starting Resinall E if you take metformin; they may need to monitor you or adjust your dose.
