HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Soursop Guanabana Extract 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: guanabana fruit extract, 500 mg per serving. Guanabana (also called soursop) is a tropical fruit traditionally used in herbal medicine.

The powder also includes dextrin, an inactive ingredient used as a filler.

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

This is a single-ingredient Graviola product and its label doesn't state a use — see Graviola'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 we hold doesn't establish that guanabana works for the conditions it's marketed for — HPV infection, headache, male infertility, or insect repellent. All the effectiveness ratings are insufficient, meaning human trials either haven't been done or aren't strong enough to confirm a benefit.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Graviola

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.

Guanabana is not well studied in humans, and the data we have raise real concerns. Regular use may cause nausea and stomach pain (burning sensation in the upper abdomen).

More seriously, long-term use has been linked to rare movement disorders and nerve damage (myeloneuropathy) that can look like Parkinson disease. People with Parkinson disease or a family history of it should avoid it entirely — even small amounts of guanabana fruit or tea appear to worsen motor and thinking symptoms.

Guanabana is rated possibly unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you're pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Graviola

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 — Graviola.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 1 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.

If you take carbamazepine (Tegretol) or any other seizure medication, check with your pharmacist before starting this product — guanabana may lower the drug's level in your blood.

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.

If you're taking carbamazepine for seizures, don't use this product without checking with your pharmacist first — it may reduce how well the drug works. Because long-term safety isn't established and nerve toxicity is a concern, this is best avoided unless you have a specific reason and medical support to try it.

Talk to your pharmacist about whether this product is right for you.

Soursop Guanabana Extract Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Soursop Guanabana Extract Powder 500 mg by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Soursop Guanabana Extract Powder 500 mg has a known interaction with 1 medication. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Soursop Guanabana Extract 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 pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — guanabana is rated possibly unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding because there isn't enough safety data. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what's safe for you during pregnancy or nursing.
What are the side effects?
The most common ones are nausea and burning stomach pain, especially with regular use. Rare but serious side effects include movement disorders and nerve damage that resemble Parkinson disease. People with Parkinson disease should avoid it entirely.
Does guanabana actually work for HPV, headaches, or the other things it claims?
The evidence we hold doesn't confirm it works for any of those — HPV, headache, male infertility, or as an insect repellent. The ratings are all insufficient, meaning human studies either haven't been done or aren't strong enough to show a real benefit.
Is this safe to take long-term?
Human safety data are limited, and lab studies raise concerns about possible nerve toxicity with long-term use. This isn't a product you should take regularly without talking to your doctor first.
What exactly is in this powder?
It's guanabana fruit extract (500 mg) plus dextrin, a filler. That's it — just the one active ingredient.
