HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Acai 1000 mg by Puritan's Pride
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 supplement contains one active ingredient: acai fruit extract, a concentrated form of the acai berry. The product also includes several inactive ingredients (the capsule and fillers): soybean oil, gelatin, glycerin, yellow beeswax, natural caramel color, silica, and soy lecithin.
Does it work?
No specific claim
The evidence for acai in the conditions it's marketed for — aging skin, athletic performance, erectile dysfunction, and high cholesterol — hasn't been established well enough for us to rate it. The data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence for each of these uses, which means more rigorous research is needed before we can say whether it works.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Acai as a food is generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplement forms and their long-term effects haven't been well studied. Because safety data for high-dose acai supplements in pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited, the caution is to use it only if your doctor or pharmacist advises it.
If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning either, talk with your healthcare provider about whether this supplement is right for you.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check your antidiabetes drugs before taking this product — acai can shift blood sugar levels, making control less predictable. If your diabetes medications are on that list, your doctor should monitor your blood glucose more closely once you add acai.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
Acai 1000 mg is a single-ingredient extract that's generally well tolerated as a food form, but evidence for its marketed uses is lacking and supplement-specific safety data is thin. If you take antidiabetes medication, this product deserves a close check before you start.
Talk to your pharmacist before adding it, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing blood sugar.

Acai 1000 mg by Puritan's Pride Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Acai 1000 mg by Puritan's Pride does interact with one class of medications we know about.
Acai fruit extract can affect how your body manages blood sugar levels, which means it may interfere with antidiabetes drugs (the medications you take to control high blood sugar). Early research in healthy people found that acai can push blood glucose levels up or down, so if you're on diabetes medication, blood sugar control becomes less predictable.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Altogether, these interactions span 85 individual medications. Because the concern here is specifically about blood sugar stability, it's especially important to check your exact diabetes medications with the tool below before you start acai — and if you do take it alongside these drugs, your doctor or pharmacist should monitor your blood glucose more closely.
