Can You Take Ginkgo Biloba and Meshima Together?

Dose or timing may matter

The short answer

Meshima (Phellinus linteus) contains polysaccharides and hispidin derivatives with antiplatelet properties. Ginkgo biloba also has antiplatelet effects. Combined use may increase bleeding risk.

How to arrange timing

Monitor for signs of increased bleeding (easy bruising, prolonged cuts) when combining Meshima with Ginkgo biloba.

Important context

Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
