HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Rsp by Loomis Enzymes
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
Partial disclosure
Rsp contains 15 ingredients, most of them digestive enzymes and plant extracts. The active digestive enzymes are amylase (breaks down carbohydrates), protease (breaks down proteins), and lipase (breaks down fats), along with cellulase, glucoamylase, alpha-galactosidase, and hemicellulase — all designed to aid in food breakdown.
The formula also includes botanical ingredients: rose hip, basil, sarsaparilla, radish, mullein, thyme, horehound, and uva ursi. Inactive ingredients include cellulose, water, and phytase.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for how well Rsp works is limited. Rose hip shows possibly effective evidence for postoperative pain and osteoarthritis.
For the other ingredients — protease, lipase, basil, sarsaparilla, radish, mullein, thyme, and uva ursi — effectiveness ratings are insufficient: the data we hold either does not establish whether they work for the conditions studied or has not been adequately evaluated. Amylase, cellulase, glucoamylase, alpha-galactosidase, hemicellulase, and horehound have no effectiveness data on file.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Protease is generally well tolerated but may cause digestive upset or allergic reactions; in rare cases, occupational exposure to airborne proteolytic enzymes has triggered allergic rhinitis or asthma. Lipase is generally well tolerated in supplement form, though no serious adverse effects have been reported in adults; however, in premature infants, the recombinant form has caused gastrointestinal problems and a higher rate of a serious intestinal condition.
Rose hip is generally well tolerated and causes flatulence or loose stools most commonly; high vitamin C doses can cause osmotic diarrhea. Basil is generally safe as a food but concentrated extracts and essential oils are less studied; allergic contact dermatitis has been reported with occupational exposure.
Radish is widely eaten and safe in normal amounts but large quantities may irritate the digestive tract; one case of allergy with throat tightness and hives was reported. Mullein is generally well tolerated for short-term use but human safety data are limited; dermatitis has occurred with topical exposure.
Thyme is safe as a food and in tea but concentrated essential oil can be toxic if swallowed; common side effects include allergic reactions, diarrhea, dizziness, heartburn, nausea, or vomiting. Sarsaparilla has limited human safety data for supplement doses.
Uva ursi is generally well tolerated at low doses for short-term use but can be toxic at high doses, with serious effects (collapse, convulsions, shortness of breath, tinnitus) reported at 20 grams or more.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check with your pharmacist before taking this product if you use estrogens (birth control or hormone therapy), blood thinners (warfarin, aspirin, antiplatelet drugs), lithium, diabetes medication, antihypertensive drugs, anticholinergic or cholinergic medications, or drugs metabolized by your liver (your pharmacist can tell you if yours are CYP2C19, CYP3A4, glucuronidated, or P-glycoprotein substrates). These are the main medication types with documented Moderate or Minor interactions.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Rsp may be considered by someone looking to supplement digestive enzyme activity or benefit from rose hip's anti-inflammatory properties. However, if you take birth control, hormone therapy, blood thinners, lithium, diabetes medication, antihypertensive drugs, or medications affected by liver metabolism, talk with your pharmacist before starting — this product has multiple documented interactions.
Those pregnant or breastfeeding should check with their doctor or pharmacist first, as several ingredients lack safety data in these periods.

Rsp by Loomis Enzymes Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Rsp by Loomis Enzymes contains several botanicals with documented interactions.
The most serious concern is rose hip, which interacts with estrogens (birth control and hormone therapy) at Moderate severity — vitamin C in rose hip can raise estrogen blood levels by up to 55%, potentially reducing contraceptive reliability or altering hormone therapy effects.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Several other Moderate-severity interactions are documented: rose hip, basil, and thyme may reduce effectiveness of blood thinners (anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs); rose hip and sarsaparilla may increase lithium levels; basil may lower blood pressure with antihypertensive drugs; thyme may interfere with estrogen therapy and anticholinergic or cholinergic medications; uva ursi may affect how your body processes certain medications (CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 substrates, glucuronidated drugs, and P-glycoprotein substrates); and radish may increase the risk of low blood sugar with diabetes medications.
Rose hip also carries Minor-severity interactions with aspirin and warfarin, though its vitamin C content is likely too low for major clinical effect. Mullein and uva ursi have Minor interactions with blood thinners.
Altogether, these interactions span 1,239 individual medications.
We could not check amylase, cellulase, glucoamylase, alpha-galactosidase, hemicellulase, or horehound — no interaction data is on file for them. Use the medication checker on this page to verify your exact prescriptions before starting.

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit cytochrome CYP2C19. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit CYP3A4. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Glucuronidated Drugs
Theoretically, uva ursi may increase levels of drugs metabolized by glucuronidation.
In vitro, uva ursi extract appears to strongly inhibit UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 (UGT1A1). However, uva ursi extract does not appear to inhibit UGT1A1 in animal models. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Lithium
Theoretically, uva ursi may increase lithium levels, necessitating a decrease in dose.
Uva ursi may have diuretic properties. Diuretics may increase lithium reabsorption with sodium in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Theoretically, uva ursi might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Urinary Acidifying Agents
Effects of uva ursi in the urinary tract may be reduced by urinary acidifying agents.
Uva ursi seems to work best in alkaline urine. Theoretically, taking uva ursi with medications known to acidify the urine may decrease any effects of uva ursi on the urinary tract.
P-Glycoprotein Substrates
Theoretically, uva ursi may alter the levels of drugs transported by P-glycoprotein.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit the multi-drug transporter protein, P-glycoprotein. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Thyme
Anticholinergic Drugs
Theoretically, concurrent use of anticholinergic drugs and thyme essential oil might reduce the effects of anticholinergic drugs.
In vitro evidence suggests that thyme essential oil and specific essential oil constituents like thymohydroquinone and carvacrol can inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE). However, this effect has not been observed in humans.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, thyme leaf extract might have additive effects with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that thyme leaf extract has antiplatelet effects. However, this effect has not been observed in humans.
Cholinergic Drugs
Theoretically, concurrent use of cholinergic drugs and thyme essential oil might cause additive cholinergic effects.
In vitro evidence suggests that thyme essential oil and specific essential oil constituents like thymohydroquinone and carvacrol can inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE). However, this effect has not been observed in humans.
Estrogens
Theoretically, thyme might competitively inhibit the effects of estrogen replacement therapy.
In vitro research shows that thyme has estrogen receptor-binding activity and phytoestrogen content. However, this effect has not been observed in humans.
Basil
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, basil might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal studies suggest that basil oils and extracts inhibit platelet aggregation.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, basil might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that basil extract can reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Horehound
Antidiabetes Drugs
Evidence from animal research suggests that white horehound might lower blood glucose. However, preliminary clinical research suggests that white horehound only slightly lowers blood glucose when taken in combination with antidiabetic agents, suggesting that the effect may not be clinically significant. Until more is known, use with caution. Theoretically, white horehound may have additive effects when used by patients taking antidiabetic drugs. The dose of diabetes medications might need to be adjusted. Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, metformin (Glucophage), pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Evidence from animal research suggests that taking white horehound extract lowers blood pressure. Theoretically, taking white horehound with antihypertensive drugs might enhance therapeutic effects and increase the risk of hypotension. Some antihypertensive drugs include captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), losartan (Cozaar), valsartan (Diovan), diltiazem (Cardizem), Amlodipine (Norvasc), hydrochlorothiazide (HydroDiuril), furosemide (Lasix), and many others.
Rose Hip
Alkylating Agents
Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of alkylating agents but might also reduce the oxidative damage caused by certain alkylating agents.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. The use of antioxidants like vitamin C during chemotherapy is controversial. There is concern that antioxidants could reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals, such as cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, carmustine, busulfan, and thiotepa. In contrast, some researchers theorize that antioxidants might make chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that could interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. Further, some animal research suggests that the antioxidant effects of rose hip might attenuate cyclophosphamide-induced testicular toxicity. More evidence is needed to determine what effect, if any, antioxidants found in rose hip, such as vitamin C, have on the effectiveness and adverse effects of chemotherapy.
Aluminum
Theoretically, rose hip might increase the amount of aluminum absorbed from aluminum compounds.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. Theoretically, vitamin C increases the absorption of aluminum. Concomitant use might increase aluminum absorption, but the clinical significance of this is unknown. Administer rose hip two hours before or four hours after antacids.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that a constituent of rose hip, rugosin E, can induce platelet aggregation. This has not been shown in humans. Theoretically, concomitant use of rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
Antitumor Antibiotics
Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of antitumor antibiotics.
Rose hip contains the antioxidant vitamin C. There is concern that antioxidants might reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals, such as antitumor antibiotics. In contrast, other researchers theorize that antioxidants might make antitumor antibiotic chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that could interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. More evidence is needed to determine what effects, if any, antioxidants such as vitamin C have on antitumor antibiotic chemotherapy.
Estrogens
Theoretically, rose hip might increase blood levels of estrogens.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. Increases in plasma estrogen levels of up to 55% have occured under some circumstances when vitamin C is taken concurrently with oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy, including topical products. It is suggested that vitamin C prevents oxidation of estrogen in the tissues, regenerates oxidized estrogen, and reduces sulfate conjugation of estrogen in the gut wall. When tissue levels of vitamin C are high, these processes are already maximized and supplemental vitamin C does not have any effect on estrogen levels. However, increases in plasma estrogen levels may occur when women who are deficient in vitamin C take supplements.
Lithium
Theoretically, rose hip might increase blood levels of lithium.
Rose hip is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, rose hip might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.
Aspirin
Theoretically, rose hip might reduce the clearance of aspirin; however, its vitamin C content is likely too low to produce clinically significant effects.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. It has been suggested that acidification of the urine by vitamin C can decrease the urinary excretion of salicylates, increasing plasma salicylate levels. However, short-term use of up to 6 grams daily of vitamin C does not seem to affect urinary pH or salicylate excretion. The vitamin C content of rose hip is typically about 500 mg per 100 grams. Thus, a clinically significant interaction between rose hip and aspirin is unlikely.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, rose hip might reduce the effectiveness of warfarin; however, its vitamin C content is likely too low to produce clinically significant effects.
Rose hip contains vitamin C. High doses of vitamin C may reduce the response to warfarin, possibly by causing diarrhea and reducing warfarin absorption. This occurred in two people who took up to 16 grams daily of vitamin C, and resulted in decreased prothrombin time. Lower doses of 5-10 grams daily of vitamin C can also reduce warfarin absorption, but this does not seem to be clinically significant. The vitamin C content of rose hip is typically about 500 mg per 100 grams. Thus, a clinically significant interaction between rose hip and warfarin is unlikely.
Mullein
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Lab tests on extracts from different parts of common and dense-flowered mullein plants show that they do have some blood-thinning effects, as they increase the time it takes for blood to clot. This is likely due to at least one of the known constituents of muellein, triterpenoid saponins. However, the effects appear to be mild and results have been inconsistent. Extracts from different plant parts have been show to have varying anticoagulant strengths, with water-based ones being more potent than alcohol-based extracts.
Radish
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, radish might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that radish extract, juice, and sprouts can reduce glucose levels. Animal research also shows that radish root juice 300 mg/kg reduces fasting and postprandial blood glucose in a rat model of diabetes, with effects similar to glibenclamide.
Sarsaparilla
Digoxin (Lanoxin)
Theoretically, concomitant use of sarsaparilla with digoxin might increase the risk of cardiac toxicity.
Sarsaparilla is thought to have diuretic properties, which could potentially cause potassium loss. Overuse or misuse of sarsaparilla with cardiac glycoside therapy might increase the risk of cardiac toxicity due to potassium loss.
Lithium
Theoretically, sarsaparilla might increase the effects and adverse effects of lithium.
Sarsaparilla is thought to have diuretic properties. Due to these effects, sarsaparilla might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.
