Interaction Warning
IMPORTANT: If you're currently taking metformin, insulin, sulfonylureas (e.g., gliclazide), or blood pressure medications, do NOT start berberine without consulting your GP first. Berberine lowers blood sugar and blood pressure — combining it with these medications significantly increases the risk of dangerous low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) or low blood pressure. If you're on a statin, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, warfarin, or antidepressants (SSRIs/SNRIs), also check with your doctor, as berberine may interact with how your body processes these drugs. Berberine is contraindicated in pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Berberine is one of the most evidence-backed natural compounds for blood sugar regulation.
