HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Amla Superfruit Capsules by Alevia

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This capsule contains one active ingredient: amla (Indian gooseberry), a tropical fruit traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. The capsule also holds inactive ingredients — organic brown rice flour, magnesium stearate, and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose — which are fillers and binding agents.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Indian Gooseberry's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Indian Gooseberry for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Dyslipidemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence on amla for specific conditions is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and dyslipidemia (abnormal blood lipid levels), meaning some clinical evidence supports benefit but more research is needed.

For high cholesterol and hair loss (androgenic alopecia), the evidence isn't strong enough yet to rate it one way or the other.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Indian Gooseberry

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Amla is generally well tolerated when you eat it as food, but supplement safety at higher doses is less well studied. The safety data available doesn't support using it during pregnancy or breastfeeding — there isn't enough reliable information to know it's safe, so it's best avoided in those situations.

In clinical trials, a small number of people reported stomach discomfort, fatigue, or muscle and joint pain.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Indian Gooseberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 208 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, double-check with your pharmacist if you're on blood thinners (anticoagulants), antiplatelet drugs, aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), or diabetes medications. All carry a Moderate interaction risk with Indian gooseberry.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Amla might be worth considering if you're interested in supporting digestive or cholesterol health, though the evidence is modest. If you take any blood thinner, aspirin, Plavix, or diabetes medication, talk with your pharmacist before you start — this supplement can affect how these drugs work.

Pregnant or breastfeeding? Skip it for now until you've checked with your doctor.

Amla4 drug types · 208 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg, as a single dose or for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg alone. Until more is known, use caution when taking Indian gooseberry in combination with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking Indian gooseberry with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry fruit or fruit extract alone or in conjunction with antidiabetes medications can lower blood glucose levels. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Aspirin

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with aspirin; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with ecosprin 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus ecosprin 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with ecosprin 75 mg alone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Clopidogrel (Plavix)

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with clopidogrel; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg alone.

Amla Superfruit Capsules by Alevia: Common Questions

Does Amla Superfruit Capsules by Alevia interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Amla Superfruit Capsules has a known interaction with 208 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Amla Superfruit Capsules contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data was compiled by the HelloPharmacist pharmacy team from the manufacturer's product label; the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
What's amla, and why is it in here?
Amla is Indian gooseberry, a tropical fruit used in traditional medicine. In this supplement it's included because some evidence suggests it may help with acid reflux and cholesterol levels, though the research is still limited.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — there isn't enough safety data at supplement doses during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor before using it in either situation.
What side effects did people report in studies?
A small number reported stomach discomfort, fatigue, or muscle and joint pain. Overall, amla tends to be well tolerated, but individual reactions vary.
Does this actually work for acid reflux?
The evidence says it's possibly effective for GERD, meaning some clinical research supports benefit — but it's not a slam-dunk. You'll likely want to talk with your doctor about how it fits into your treatment plan.
Why can't I take this with my diabetes meds?
Indian gooseberry can lower blood sugar on its own, so mixing it with diabetes medications might drop your levels too far. Your doctor may need to adjust your medication dose if you want to use this supplement together.
