HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Resveratrol 500 mg by Puritan's Pride

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: resveratrol 500 mg per capsule. Resveratrol is a compound found naturally in grapes, berries, and red wine — it's a type of polyphenol (plant antioxidant) that your body absorbs when taken by mouth.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients (cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate) that help form and stabilize the supplement.

Does it work?

Moderate 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 Resveratrol's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Resveratrol for:

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“Antioxidant support and healthy aging”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Obesity — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for resveratrol is mixed and modest. It's rated possibly effective for obesity and allergic rhinitis (hay fever), meaning there's some research support but it's not conclusive.

For cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol, the data rates it as possibly ineffective — so if heart health or cholesterol is your goal, resveratrol alone probably won't deliver what you're hoping for.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Resveratrol

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.

Resveratrol is generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses, but here's what you should know: higher doses can cause digestive upset — diarrhea, loose stools, and stomach discomfort are the most common side effects. A small number of trial participants reported headache, fatigue, or a rash, though the rash went away within two weeks of stopping.

During pregnancy, there isn't enough safety information to recommend this supplement, so avoid it if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. If you're in either situation and considering resveratrol, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Resveratrol

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 — Resveratrol.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 823 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 supplement, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin, aspirin, or clopidogrel), because resveratrol may increase bleeding risk. Also flag any medications your doctor has told you are processed by your liver — resveratrol may raise their levels, though the real-world risk isn't fully proven.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Resveratrol may help with obesity and hay fever, but the evidence is modest and it won't be a game-changer for heart health or cholesterol on its own. The main thing to watch is its interaction with blood thinners and several liver-processed medications — so check your exact meds with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, skip it unless your healthcare provider says otherwise.

Resveratrol5 drug types · 822 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Resveratrol may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Resveratrol seems to have antiplatelet effects.

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

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit CYP1A2 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit CYP2C19 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
In vitro research suggests that resveratrol inhibits CYP2E1 isoenzyme. Also, a pharmacokinetic study shows that taking resveratrol 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to taking a single dose of chlorzoxazone 250 mg increases the maximum concentration of chlorzoxazone by about 54%, the area under the curve of chlorzoxazone by about 72%, and the half-life of chlorzoxazone by about 35%. Chlorzoxazone is used as a probe drug for CYP2E1.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme. However, clinical research shows that taking resveratrol 3000 mg daily for 8 weeks does not necessitate dose adjustments to medications metabolized by CYP3A4.

Resveratrol 500 mg by Puritan's Pride: Common Questions

Does Resveratrol 500 mg by Puritan's Pride interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Resveratrol 500 mg has a known interaction with 822 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Resveratrol 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 pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data isn't strong enough to recommend it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether resveratrol is right for you in either situation — they can weigh the pros and cons for your circumstances.
What side effects should I expect?
Most people don't have problems, but digestive upset — loose stools, diarrhea, or stomach discomfort — is the most common. A few people in trials reported headache, fatigue, or a rash. Higher doses are more likely to cause digestive issues.
Does resveratrol actually work for weight loss?
There's some research showing it may help with obesity, but the evidence is modest — it's rated possibly effective, not proven. It's not a magic bullet, and you'd want to pair it with diet and exercise.
Will this help my cholesterol or heart health?
For cholesterol and cardiovascular disease, the evidence rates resveratrol as possibly ineffective. If heart or cholesterol is your main reason, this supplement alone isn't likely to do the job — talk with your doctor about what will.
Is resveratrol natural or synthetic?
Resveratrol is a compound found naturally in grapes, berries, and red wine. This supplement is a concentrated form extracted and put into a capsule, so you're getting a much higher dose than you'd get from food.
What's in the capsule besides resveratrol?
Just the inactive ingredients that hold the capsule together: cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate. They're not active, just fillers and binders.
