Overview
•Piperine (BioPerine) inhibits intestinal P-glycoprotein and CYP3A4 enzymes, which can meaningfully raise systemic levels of co-administered prescription medications.
•Curcuminoids exert antiplatelet activity; do not combine with prescription blood thinners or anticoagulants without direct medical supervision.
•Formulations with enhanced turmeric absorption have been linked to rare cases of drug-induced liver injury; discontinue if dark urine, fatigue, or yellowing eyes develop.
•Avoid use if you have active gallstones or biliary tract obstruction, as curcumin stimulates gallbladder contractions.
•Common mild adverse effects are gastrointestinal, including nausea, acid reflux, abdominal cramping, and loose stools, especially if taken without food.
