HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tulsi Moringa by Organic India
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
Low disclosure
Tulsi Moringa is a 5-ingredient blend brewed as a tea. The active ingredients are lemongrass, moringa leaf, holy basil (also called tulsi or East Indian basil), plus two proprietary or blend containers—one listed as a 'Proprietary Organic Blend' and one as an 'Organic Tulsi Blend' whose exact makeup isn't fully specified.
There are no inactive ingredients listed on file. All three named herbs have a long traditional history in herbal medicine, though the evidence for their effectiveness in modern clinical use is still being built.
This product is meant to be steeped and sipped as a tea.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence for what this blend does is still very limited. For lemongrass alone, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate whether it helps headaches, colds, cough, diabetes, epilepsy, or fatigue.
Moringa leaf similarly lacks solid evidence for iron deficiency anemia, asthma, athletic performance, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, or high cholesterol. Holy basil also has insufficient evidence for generalized anxiety, asthma, headache, respiratory infections, dental plaque, or diabetes.
If you're considering this tea for a specific health goal, talk with your pharmacist about whether the research supports that use.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Holy basil, lemongrass, and moringa leaf are generally well tolerated in food amounts and short-term use. The most common side effect from holy basil is loose stools or nausea—a small number of trial participants reported these.
Moringa may cause transient diarrhea; in one trial, a quarter of participants taking 8 grams daily had loose stools. Rare serious effects (allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, and a case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome linked to moringa leaves) have been reported.
For pregnancy and breastfeeding, the data advises against use. Holy basil is rated possibly unsafe in both pregnancy and lactation due to animal concerns and lack of human safety data.
Lemongrass safety in medicinal amounts is not well established, and moringa root and bark may stimulate the uterus. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you start Tulsi Moringa, double-check these medication types with your pharmacist or using the search tool: blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (moderate risk of increased bleeding); diabetes medications (moderate risk of low blood sugar); medications metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP1A2, or glucuronidation pathways (moderate risk of altered drug levels); thyroid hormone (levothyroxine); pentobarbital and possibly other sedatives or barbiturates; and P-glycoprotein substrates.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a traditional herbal tea blend with a long history of use, but it interacts with a substantial number of medications—especially blood thinners, diabetes drugs, and certain liver-metabolized medications. If you take any prescription drugs, check them against the interaction tool on this page first.
It's not for pregnancy or breastfeeding. A conversation with your pharmacist before starting will help you know whether it's safe for your specific situation.

Tulsi Moringa by Organic India Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Tulsi Moringa by Organic India contains lemongrass, moringa, and holy basil—three ingredients with documented interactions across a broad range of medications.
Altogether, these interactions span 949 individual medications.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The most serious concern is with blood thinners (anticoagulants) and antiplatelet drugs like warfarin and aspirin. Holy basil may increase bleeding risk by prolonging bleeding time, though this has only been shown in animal studies so far.
Other moderate-severity interactions include effects on how your liver processes certain medications. Lemongrass and moringa may alter the breakdown of CYP3A4 substrates (a large group of common drugs), and lemongrass may also affect glucuronidated drugs by speeding their clearance.
Moringa may similarly affect CYP1A2 substrates. Lemongrass and holy basil both theoretically increase the effects of pentobarbital (a barbiturate sedative).
Moringa may antagonize levothyroxine (thyroid hormone) and affect P-glycoprotein substrates. Holy basil and moringa both carry a minor interaction risk with diabetes medications—they may lower blood sugar, raising the chance of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).

For each ingredient in Tulsi Moringa with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Moringa
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, moringa might increase or decrease levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Some in vitro research suggests that moringa inhibits cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). However, other in vitro research suggests that moringa extract induces CYP3A4 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine, which is partially metabolized by CYP3A4, when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)
Theoretically, moringa leaf can antagonize the effects of levothyroxine.
Animal research suggests that moringa aqueous leaf extract might reduce serum triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations by inhibiting the peripheral conversion of thyroxine (T4) to T3.
P-Glycoprotein Substrates
Theoretically, moringa leaf extract might increase the levels and clinical effects of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa leaf extract inhibits renal P-glycoprotein transport activity. So far, this reaction has not been reported in humans.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, moringa might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Animal research shows that moringa can lower blood glucose levels. However, research in humans has not shown consistent blood glucose lowering effects.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, moringa might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
Nevirapine (Viramune)
Moringa leaf is unlikely to have a clinically significant interaction with nevirapine.
Nevirapine is partially metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). In vitro evidence suggests that moringa inhibits CYP3A4. However, a pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in nevirapine pharmacokinetics when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.
Lemongrass
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, lemongrass might decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
Animal research shows that lemongrass and its constituent citral inhibit CYP3A4.
Glucuronidated Drugs
Theoretically, lemongrass might increase the clearance and decrease the levels of glucuronidated drugs.
Animal research shows that lemongrass and its constituent citral induce uridine diphosphoglucuronosyl transferase (UGT), the major phase 2 enzyme that is responsible for glucuronidation.
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)
Theoretically, lemongrass might increase the effects and adverse effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that high doses of lemongrass essential oil increases sleep time and decreases time to fall asleep in animals administered pentobarbital.
Holy Basil
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, holy basil seed oil might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research shows that holy basil seed oil can prolong bleeding time, possibly due to inhibition of platelet aggregation. However, it is not known if this occurs in humans.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, holy basil might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Small clinical studies show that taking holy basil can decrease fasting blood glucose and other measures of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)
Theoretically, holy basil seed oil might increase the sedative effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that holy basil seed oil increases pentobarbitone-induced sleeping time. However, it is not known if this occurs in humans or if this applies to other barbiturates or sedatives.
