HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Resveratrol 200 mg with Piperine by Metabolic Maintenance

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Resveratrol” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (200 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains two active ingredients: resveratrol 200 mg (supplied via polygonum cuspidatum root extract, also called hu zhang) and piperine (the active compound in black pepper). The capsule itself is vegetarian cellulose.

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

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

The evidence we hold does not establish effectiveness for either ingredient in this product. Resveratrol has been studied for hepatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, wound healing, gout, osteoarthritis, and unstable angina, but the data we have rates it insufficient.

Piperine has been studied for hay fever, asthma, athletic performance, headache, depression, and diarrhea, and our data rates it insufficient for all of these as well.

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 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Piperine from black pepper is generally well tolerated when used in food amounts or as a single medicinal dose. The most common side effects are a burning aftertaste, indigestion, and reduced taste perception; inhaled forms may cause cough.

Allergic reactions are rare but possible in sensitive individuals. Concentrated piperine supplements should be used cautiously and ideally under medical advice, as safety data for supplement-strength doses are limited.

Polygonum cuspidatum (hu zhang) carries more caution. Its safety in humans is not well established, and some compounds it contains may affect the uterus or bowel.

Pregnancy safety is rated likely unsafe; lactation safety data are not on file. Avoid this ingredient during pregnancy and breastfeeding, or talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing before taking this product.

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.

This product is not a first-line choice if you take heart medications, seizure medications, blood thinners, antiretroviral drugs, or estrogen replacement—the interaction risk is real and potentially serious. Even if you don't take any of those, the total medication count affected is very high, so check your exact medications with the tool on this page.

Talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a bleeding disorder.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of atorvastatin.
Animal research shows that taking piperine, a constituent of black pepper, 35 mg/kg can increase the maximum serum concentration of atorvastatin three-fold. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the effects and side effects of cyclosporine.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases the bioavailability of cyclosporine. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research suggests that some constituents of black pepper inhibit CYP2D6. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research and pharmacokinetic simulation data suggest that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, as well as the pepper fruit seem to inhibit CYP3A4. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of lithium due to its diuretic effects. The dose of lithium might need to be reduced.
Black pepper is thought to have diuretic properties.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Nevirapine (Viramune)

Black pepper might increase blood levels of nevirapine.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases the plasma concentration of nevirapine. However, no adverse effects were observed in this study.

Theophylline

Black pepper might increase blood levels of theophylline.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and slow elimination of theophylline.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Amoxicillin (Amoxil, Trimox)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the effects and side effects of amoxicillin.
Animal research shows that taking piperine, a constituent of black pepper, with amoxicillin increases plasma levels of amoxicillin. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of carbamazepine, potentially increasing the effects and side effects of carbamazepine.
One clinical study in patients taking carbamazepine 300 mg or 500 mg twice daily shows that taking a single 20 mg dose of purified piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases carbamazepine levels. Piperine may increase carbamazepine absorption by increasing blood flow to the GI tract, increasing the surface area of the small intestine, or inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) in the gut wall. Absorption was significantly increased by 7-10 mcg/mL/hour. The time to eliminate carbamazepine was also increased by 4-8 hours. Although carbamazepine levels were increased, this did not appear to increase side effects. In vitro research also shows that piperine can increase carbamazepine levels by 11% in a time-dependent manner.

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

Theoretically, black pepper might decrease levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research suggests that black pepper induces CYP1A2. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

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.

Yes. Based on its ingredients, Resveratrol 200 mg with Piperine has a known interaction with 1,036 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Resveratrol 200 mg with Piperine contains 2 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The piperine in this product is rated likely safe in pregnancy, but the polygonum cuspidatum (resveratrol source) is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy and safety data for breastfeeding are not on file. Do not take this product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first.
What does piperine do in this formula?
Piperine is the active compound in black pepper and is included here as an absorption enhancer. However, our data show insufficient evidence to rate its effectiveness for any specific health condition on its own.
Does this product actually work for any condition?
The evidence we hold does not establish that resveratrol or piperine work reliably for the conditions they have been studied in—hay fever, asthma, athletic performance, headache, depression, diarrhea, rheumatoid arthritis, wound healing, gout, or osteoarthritis. For either ingredient, the evidence is rated insufficient.
What are the most common side effects?
When piperine is taken orally, the most common side effects are a burning aftertaste, indigestion, and reduced taste perception. Allergic reactions are rare but can happen in sensitive people. No adverse effects have been formally reported for polygonum cuspidatum in the data we hold.
Is this safe to take regularly?
Piperine in food amounts or as a single dose is generally well tolerated, but concentrated piperine supplements should be used cautiously and ideally with medical advice. Polygonum cuspidatum has limited human safety data and carries cautions during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about whether regular use is right for you.
