HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Antacid Formula Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This powder contains 3 ingredients: a proprietary blend (whose components are listed separately), angelica powder, marshmallow powder, and chamomile powder. Marshmallow is traditionally used as a soothing herb for mucous membranes, though its effectiveness for specific conditions hasn't been reliably established in the scientific data we hold.

There are no inactive fillers or binders listed for this formula.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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
Not assessable

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Antacid and digestive comfort.
  • We looked for evidence on: heartburn, acid reflux, indigestion, gastric upset.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

The scientific evidence for marshmallow — the one ingredient in this formula we have effectiveness data for — is insufficient to reliably rate it for any condition, including vaginal candidiasis, diarrhea, leg ulcers, eczema, or respiratory infections. We hold no effectiveness information for angelica or chamomile in this product.

If you're taking this for a specific health concern, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the evidence supports its use for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Marshmallow

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Marshmallow powder is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but human safety data are limited. The safety data for this ingredient advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough reliable information to know whether it's safe.

We hold no safety information on file for the angelica or chamomile in this formula.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Marshmallow

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 — Marshmallow.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; lithium.
  • For scale: 2,041 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.

Check your medications before taking this product if you're on lithium — marshmallow may raise lithium levels and require a dose adjustment. Also double-check any oral medications you take regularly and any blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, as marshmallow may affect their absorption or action.

Marshmallow, Powder3 drug types · 2,040 drugs

Lithium

Theoretically, due to potential diuretic effects, marshmallow might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Marshmallow is thought to have diuretic properties. To avoid lithium toxicity, the dose of lithium might need to be decreased when used with marshmallow.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, marshmallow flower might have antiplatelet effects.
Animal research suggests that marshmallow flower extract has antiplatelet effects. However, the root and leaf of marshmallow, not the flower, are the plant parts most commonly found in dietary supplements. Theoretically, use of marshmallow flower with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs can have additive effects, and might increase the risk for bleeding in some patients.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Oral Drugs

Theoretically, mucilage in marshmallow might impair absorption of oral drugs.
Marshmallow contains mucilage which can affect oral drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take marshmallow 30-60 minutes after oral medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Antacid Formula Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Antacid Formula Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Antacid Formula Powder has a known interaction with 2,040 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Antacid Formula Powder contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data for marshmallow advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough reliable information to know whether it's safe either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're pregnant or planning to breastfeed.
Does this work for upset stomach or heartburn?
We hold no effectiveness data for this formula as a whole or for its antacid use. Marshmallow is traditionally used for soothing the digestive tract, but the scientific evidence for it is insufficient to reliably rate. If you're looking to treat heartburn or stomach upset, ask your pharmacist which options have stronger evidence.
What does the marshmallow powder actually do?
Marshmallow is traditionally used as a soothing herb for the digestive and respiratory tract linings because of the mucilage (a gel-like substance) it contains. That same mucilage can slow down how your body absorbs oral medications, so timing matters if you're on other drugs.
I take other medicines — should I worry about this powder?
It depends on what you take. Lithium users need caution — marshmallow may raise lithium levels. Anyone on oral medications should space them 30–60 minutes away from this powder to avoid absorption problems. Use the medication checker on this page to see your specific drugs.
What's in the proprietary blend?
The proprietary blend is listed on the label but its exact amounts aren't disclosed to us. The individual ingredient components (angelica, marshmallow, and chamomile) are listed separately so you can see what's in it.
Are there any fillers in this powder?
No inactive fillers or binders are listed for this formula — it appears to be the active ingredients only.
