HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Wild Blueberry by MegaFood
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
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: wild blueberry, a whole-food ingredient that delivers the natural compounds found in the fruit. The tablet also includes two inactive ingredients — vegetable lubricant and silica — which are standard binders and flow agents that help form the pill.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for wild blueberry is mixed. For high blood pressure (hypertension), the data actually suggests it's likely ineffective.
For age-related cognitive decline, anxiety, athletic performance, and high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works. Cardiovascular disease prevention also lacks sufficient evidence in our data.
If you're considering this for one of these conditions, talk to your pharmacist or doctor about what the research really supports.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Blueberries as food are widely eaten and generally well tolerated. When you take this supplement as a tablet, the same safety profile mostly holds — though freeze-dried blueberries in concentrated form may cause constipation, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting in some people.
In one clinical trial, about a quarter of participants taking 50 grams daily stopped in the first week due to stomach upset. For pregnancy and breastfeeding, eating whole blueberries is fine, but high-dose concentrated supplements haven't been well studied.
The safety data rates this product as likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, but the evidence for extracts at supplement levels is incomplete. If you're pregnant or nursing, discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist first.
Meds to double-check
Minor interactions only
Before you take this product, check if you're on antidiabetes drugs (blood sugar medications), flurbiprofen or other anti-inflammatory pain relievers, or buspirone for anxiety. Blueberry may theoretically increase your risk of low blood sugar with diabetes drugs and may raise blood levels of the other two medications.
No interactions are documented for the inactive ingredients.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Wild blueberry from MegaFood is a whole-food supplement that's generally well tolerated, though it can cause digestive upset in some people. If you take diabetes medications, anti-inflammatories, or anti-anxiety drugs, check your exact medications with our tool before starting.
Anyone pregnant or breastfeeding should confirm with their pharmacist first.

Wild Blueberry by MegaFood Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
MegaFood's Wild Blueberry contains one active ingredient — wild blueberry — which has documented interactions with a small number of medication types.
The most serious concern is with antidiabetes drugs (diabetes medications), where blueberry may theoretically increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Animal and lab research suggests blueberry can lower blood glucose levels, though human evidence is limited.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Blueberry also interacts with two other specific drugs. It may increase blood levels of flurbiprofen (an anti-inflammatory), and it may increase blood levels of buspirone (an anti-anxiety medication), both through effects on how your liver breaks them down.
These are Minor interactions based on lab evidence, but human studies have shown mixed results.
Altogether, these interactions span 87 individual medications. Run your exact prescriptions through the checker on this page before you start, especially if you take diabetes medications or anti-inflammatory drugs.

Wild Blueberry
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, blueberries or blueberry leaf extracts might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal and in vitro research suggests that blueberry and/or blueberry leaf extracts can lower blood glucose levels.
Buspirone (Buspar)
Theoretically, blueberry juice might increase blood levels of buspirone.
In vitro research shows that blueberry juice can inhibit the metabolism of buspirone, possibly by inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes. However, pharmacokinetic research in humans shows that drinking 300 mL of blueberry juice 30 minutes before taking buspirone hydrochloride 10 mg does not significantly affect the concentration or clearance of buspirone.
Flurbiprofen (Ansaid, Others)
Theoretically, blueberry juice might increase blood levels of flurbiprofen.
In vitro research shows that blueberry juice can inhibit the metabolism of flurbiprofen, possibly by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) enzymes. However, pharmacokinetic research in humans shows that drinking 300 mL of blueberry juice 30 minutes before taking flurbiprofen 100 mg does not significantly affect the concentration or clearance of flurbiprofen.
