Short-term tolerance has limits

A review describes acceptable short-term tolerance in oil trials, while emphasizing that safety cannot be generalized to other plant parts, concentrated extracts or vulnerable populations. These studies do not establish safety for long-term high-dose use or pregnancy. 1

Are blood-thinner interactions established?

Sea buckthorn compounds have affected platelets and coagulation in laboratory blood experiments. The review identifies this as a reason for caution with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicines, not a clinically confirmed interaction. 1

For information, not individual medical advice. Ingredient studies do not establish the effectiveness of these products.
