HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Acai Berry by PharmAssure
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
PharmAssure Acai Berry contains one active ingredient: acai berry extract. The product also includes inactive ingredients — soybean oil, gelatin, glycerin, caramel color, and soy lecithin — which serve as the softgel capsule base and allow the extract to be absorbed.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence supporting acai berry for aging skin, athletic performance, erectile dysfunction, and high cholesterol is insufficient to rate. We don't hold reliable data showing it works for any of these uses.
If you're considering this supplement for one of those reasons, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the current science actually supports.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Acai as a food is generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplements haven't been as thoroughly studied. High-dose effects in particular remain unclear.
Because concentrated acai supplements haven't been studied in pregnancy or breastfeeding, caution is advised in both situations — talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding before you start.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this, check all antidiabetes drugs (insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, and others) with your pharmacist. Acai may raise or lower blood sugar, which could throw off your medication's effectiveness.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
If you take any blood sugar medication, this product needs a medication check before you start. Acai as a food is safe enough, but we don't have solid evidence it helps with the claims often made for it, and pregnant or breastfeeding people should get personalized advice from their pharmacist or doctor first.
