HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Anti-Cellulite Complex 450 mg 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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 12, 2026

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 6 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (450 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This six-ingredient complex combines rosemary, uva ursi, boxwood, broom heather, and elderberry in a proprietary blend, along with two inactive ingredients — gelatin and water. Each capsule supplies 450 mg total.

The proprietary blend means the exact amount of each herb isn't disclosed separately on the label.

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 its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

  • Memory via Rosemary Possibly Effective
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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Memory — rated "Possibly Effective" (Rosemary) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for this product's ingredients is sparse. Rosemary has been rated possibly effective for memory, but the data for its other proposed uses — including alopecia areata and fatty liver disease — is insufficient.

Uva ursi is rated possibly ineffective for urinary tract infections, and the evidence for its use in bronchitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia is insufficient. For elderberry and the other ingredients in this formula, the evidence we hold does not establish effectiveness for any condition listed.

No effectiveness rating exists in our data for boxwood or broom heather.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Rosemary Uva Ursi Boxwood Heather Elderberry

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 4 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Rosemary is considered safe in normal culinary amounts, but medicinal or large doses should be avoided during pregnancy. Food amounts are likely fine while breastfeeding, though concentrated extracts require caution.

Uva ursi may be used short-term but is toxic at high doses or with prolonged use; it is likely unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding. Boxwood extract from processed material seems well tolerated, but safety data are limited; the raw plant is toxic, and boxwood is likely unsafe during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Broom heather is generally regarded as mild, but safety data are very limited — avoid it during pregnancy and lactation. Elderberry made from ripe, cooked fruit is generally well tolerated, but raw or unripe berries and other plant parts can be toxic; avoid elderberry supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety information.

Adverse effects from rosemary include allergic reactions and contact dermatitis when applied to skin, lip and gum swelling when used in the mouth, and rarely occupational asthma. Uva ursi commonly causes diarrhea, nausea, stomach upset, and vomiting at low doses; at very high doses (20+ grams), it can cause serious effects like collapse, convulsions, and shortness of breath.

Boxwood extract is usually well tolerated orally, but the whole plant causes severe vomiting, diarrhea, and colonic spasms. Elderberry from ripe fruit is well tolerated, but raw berries and plant parts cause nausea, vomiting, severe diarrhea, weakness, and dizziness due to toxins that cooking destroys.

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?
  • 4 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Rosemary, Boxwood, Uva Ursi, Elderberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,186 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 use blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (Moderate risk from rosemary), diabetes medications (Moderate from rosemary), aspirin or salicylate-containing pain relievers (Moderate from rosemary), drugs metabolized by CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 liver pathways (Moderate from uva ursi), lithium (Moderate from uva ursi), anticholinergic or cholinergic medications (Moderate from boxwood), or immunosuppressants or the cancer drug pazopanib (Moderate from elderberry).

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Anti-Cellulite Complex 450 mg with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Uva ursi6 drug types · 803 drugs

Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit cytochrome CYP2C19. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit CYP3A4. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Glucuronidated Drugs

Theoretically, uva ursi may increase levels of drugs metabolized by glucuronidation.
In vitro, uva ursi extract appears to strongly inhibit UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 (UGT1A1). However, uva ursi extract does not appear to inhibit UGT1A1 in animal models. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, uva ursi may increase lithium levels, necessitating a decrease in dose.
Uva ursi may have diuretic properties. Diuretics may increase lithium reabsorption with sodium in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Theoretically, uva ursi might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Urinary Acidifying Agents

Effects of uva ursi in the urinary tract may be reduced by urinary acidifying agents.
Uva ursi seems to work best in alkaline urine. Theoretically, taking uva ursi with medications known to acidify the urine may decrease any effects of uva ursi on the urinary tract.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may alter the levels of drugs transported by P-glycoprotein.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit the multi-drug transporter protein, P-glycoprotein. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Uva ursi full monograph & interactions

Rosemary6 drug types · 372 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, rosemary may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that rosemary inhibits platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking rosemary with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research shows that rosemary extract can decrease blood glucose levels in diabetic models. However, research in humans is conflicting. Although rosemary powder decreased blood glucose levels in healthy adults, no change in blood glucose levels was seen in adults with type 2 diabetes, most of whom were taking antidiabetes drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Aspirin

Theoretically, rosemary might have additive effects with salicylate-containing drugs such as aspirin.
Rosemary is reported to contain salicylates.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Choline Magnesium Trisalicylate (Trilisate)

Theoretically, rosemary might have additive effects with salicylate-containing drugs such as choline magnesium trisalicylate.
Rosemary is reported to contain salicylate.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Salsalate (Disalcid)

Theoretically, rosemary might have additive effects with salicylate-containing drugs such as salsalate.
Rosemary is reported to contain salicylate.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, rosemary might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that rosemary induces CYP1A2 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Rosemary full monograph & interactions

Boxwood2 drug types · 219 drugs

Anticholinergic Drugs

Evidence from in vitro research suggests that boxwood extract can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. Theoretically, concurrent use of anticholinergic drugs and boxwood might decrease the effectiveness of boxwood or the anticholinergic agent.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Evidence from in vitro research suggests that boxwood extract can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. Theoretically, concurrent use of boxwood with other cholinergic drugs might have additive effects and increase the risk of cholinergic side effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Boxwood full monograph & interactions

Elder2 drug types · 121 drugs

Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, elderberry might interfere with immunosuppressant therapy due to its immunostimulant activity.
Elderberry has immunostimulant activity, increasing the production of cytokines, including interleukin and tumor necrosis factor.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Pazopanib (Votrient)

Theoretically, elderberry might interact with pazopanib, potentially increasing the risk of adverse effects.
In one case, a 65-year-old patient taking pazopanib for 4 weeks for soft-tissue sarcoma developed severe nausea, loose stools, and elevated alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase levels and was diagnosed with grade 3 liver injury. The patient reported taking elderberry supplements for 2 years, dose unspecified, and was also taking a multivitamin and a calcium supplement. The patient's symptoms and liver enzyme levels improved upon discontinuation of pazopanib and all supplements. Pazopanib treatment was re-initiated, at a lower dose, with no further evidence of liver injury. It was unclear in this case report if the elderberry supplements were derived from the berry, the flower, or the combination.

Anti-Cellulite Complex 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Anti-Cellulite Complex 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Anti-Cellulite Complex 450 mg has a known interaction with 1,185 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Anti-Cellulite Complex 450 mg contains 6 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.
Is this safe to use if I'm pregnant?
No. Rosemary at medicinal doses is possibly unsafe, uva ursi is likely unsafe, boxwood and elderberry are likely unsafe, and broom heather should be avoided. There isn't enough safety data for the other ingredients either. Do not use this product during pregnancy — talk with your doctor or midwife first.
What about breastfeeding?
Not recommended. Uva ursi, boxwood, and elderberry all lack enough safety data for breastfeeding and should be avoided. Rosemary food amounts are likely fine, but medicinal doses are not studied. It's best to skip this supplement while nursing and discuss safer options with your pharmacist or doctor.
Does rosemary actually help with cellulite?
The evidence for rosemary in our data rates it possibly effective for memory only. There is no established evidence for cellulite in the data we hold, so we can't say whether this ingredient or this product will help.
What's a proprietary blend, and why don't I know how much of each herb I'm getting?
A proprietary blend is a mix where the manufacturer doesn't disclose the individual amounts of each ingredient — only the total weight (450 mg here). This means you can't know whether you're getting a meaningful dose of any single herb. It also makes it harder to spot potential problems if you have a reaction.
What are the most common side effects I should watch for?
Uva ursi commonly causes diarrhea, nausea, stomach upset, and vomiting. Rosemary may trigger allergic reactions or contact dermatitis if applied to skin. Elderberry from ripe fruit is usually well tolerated, but raw berries cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. If you notice any of these, stop and tell your pharmacist.
Can I use this if I take lithium for mood?
No. Uva ursi in this product may increase lithium levels in your blood, which could be dangerous. You must talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any new supplement — do not start this product on your own.
