HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Triphala by Herbal Hills

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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 3 active ingredients.
  • “Triphala extract & Triphala powder Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (500 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Triphala by Herbal Hills contains 3 active ingredients: Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis), Terminalia chebula, and Terminalia belerica — all plants traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. The product also contains inactive ingredients including xanthan gum, maize starch, silicon dioxide, HPMC, and magnesium stearate as binders and fillers.

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 its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some 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: Dyslipidemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Indian Gooseberry) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Indian Gooseberry) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for Triphala is mixed. Indian gooseberry is possibly effective for acid reflux (GERD) and possibly effective for high cholesterol (dyslipidemia), but we don't have reliable data to rate it for hair loss.

The other two ingredients — Terminalia chebula and Terminalia belerica — don't have established effectiveness ratings in our data for any condition; the evidence isn't there yet to say whether they work.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Indian Gooseberry Terminalia Chebula Terminalia

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 2 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Indian gooseberry is generally well tolerated as a food, but supplement safety data are limited. Terminalia chebula is generally used in traditional medicine, though human safety data are sparse and product quality varies.

In a small trial, a few people reported stomach discomfort or dyspepsia, and there was one report each of fatigue and musculoskeletal pain — but these are from small numbers and may not be related to the product. During pregnancy, there's not enough safety data for Terminalia chebula or Terminalia belerica, so those are best avoided.

During breastfeeding, safety data for all three ingredients are absent or insufficient, so it's best to avoid this product. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using Triphala if you're pregnant or nursing.

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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Indian Gooseberry, Terminalia, Terminalia Chebula.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 934 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 Triphala, double-check with your pharmacist if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin or aspirin) — there's a Moderate risk of increased bleeding. Also check if you take diabetes medications, muscle relaxants like chlorzoxazone, or stomach drugs like omeprazole.

Because one ingredient affects liver enzymes that break down many drugs, any prescription medication should be reviewed.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

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

Triphala might be worth considering if you have acid reflux or high cholesterol and don't take blood thinners or diabetes drugs. If you're on any prescription medications — especially anticoagulants, diabetes drugs, or anything metabolized by your liver — check with your pharmacist first.

Avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Terminalia belerica7 drug types · 933 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of Terminalia arjuna with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs may increase the risk of bleeding in some patients.
In vitro, Terminalia arjuna bark extract inhibits platelet aggregation, decreases platelet activation, and shows antithrombotic properties.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of Terminalia bellirica or Terminalia chebula with antidiabetes drugs could affect blood sugar control and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal and in vitro research shows that Terminalia bellirica and Terminalia chebula fruit and seed extract have hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Theoretically, use of Terminalia chebula may increase the risk of adverse effects from chlorzoxazone.
Animal research shows that enteral administration of Terminalia chebula for 15 days prior to administration of chlorzoxazone increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance. It is speculated that Terminalia chebula reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2E1.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, use of Terminalia arjuna may increase the levels and clinical effects of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Terminalia arjuna extract inhibits CYP2C9 enzymes and reduces CYP2C9 substrate metabolism.

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

Theoretically, use of Terminalia arjuna may increase the levels and clinical effects of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro research shows that Terminalia arjuna extract inhibits CYP2D6 enzymes and reduces CYP2D6 substrate metabolism.

Emblica officinalis4 drug types · 208 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg, as a single dose or for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg alone. Until more is known, use caution when taking Indian gooseberry in combination with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking Indian gooseberry with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry fruit or fruit extract alone or in conjunction with antidiabetes medications can lower blood glucose levels. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Aspirin

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with aspirin; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with ecosprin 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus ecosprin 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with ecosprin 75 mg alone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Clopidogrel (Plavix)

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with clopidogrel; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg alone.

Triphala by Herbal Hills: Common Questions

Does Triphala by Herbal Hills interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Triphala has a known interaction with 933 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Triphala contains 3 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.
Does Triphala work for weight loss or high cholesterol?
One of the three ingredients, Indian gooseberry, is possibly effective for high cholesterol. But Terminalia belerica and Terminalia chebula don't have enough evidence to say whether they work for weight loss, high cholesterol, or most other conditions — the data just isn't there yet.
Can I take Triphala if I'm on blood thinners?
Indian gooseberry in Triphala can reduce platelet aggregation and increase bleeding time, which raises the risk of bleeding with drugs like warfarin or aspirin. This is a Moderate interaction, so talk with your pharmacist before taking it.
What side effects have been reported?
In clinical trials, a small number of people reported stomach discomfort or indigestion. One person reported fatigue and three reported musculoskeletal pain, though these may not be related to the product. In one small study involving Triphala with another supplement, a couple of people developed a rash within minutes, but it's unclear what caused it.
Is it safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
No. There's not enough safety data for any of the three ingredients during pregnancy — Terminalia chebula and Terminalia belerica are best avoided. During breastfeeding, safety data are absent or insufficient, so avoid this product and talk with your doctor or pharmacist.
What is Terminalia chebula in this product for?
Terminalia chebula is one of the three traditional Ayurvedic ingredients in Triphala. It's been used historically for digestion, but we don't have reliable evidence yet that it works for any specific condition in supplement doses.
If I take this, will my diabetes medication still work?
Both Indian gooseberry and Terminalia chebula can lower blood sugar on their own, so combined with diabetes medication, you have a higher risk of low blood sugar. Your dose might need adjusting — talk with your doctor before starting Triphala if you take diabetes drugs.
