HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Apple Cider Vinegar 480 mg by Meijer

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 16, 2026

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 product contains a single active ingredient: apple cider vinegar at 480 mg per tablet. The remaining ingredients — dicalcium phosphate, cellulose, croscarmellose, vegetable stearic acid, silica, and vegetable magnesium stearate — are inactive ingredients used to bind and form the tablet.

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

This is a single-ingredient Apple Cider Vinegar product and its label doesn't state a use — see Apple Cider Vinegar's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence we hold on apple cider vinegar doesn't establish it as effective for the uses studied — acne, athletic performance, cognitive function, dental plaque, depression, and atopic dermatitis (eczema). The data show insufficient reliable evidence to rate its effectiveness for any of these.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Apple Cider Vinegar

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.

In food amounts, apple cider vinegar is well tolerated. However, larger medicinal or supplement doses have less safety data, and long-term use in big amounts may be unsafe.

Rare serious side effects reported with long-term use include low potassium, elevated renin (a kidney hormone), and bone loss. The supplement has also caused chemical burns when applied directly to skin.

The facts note that undiluted or large doses can cause harm, and unpasteurized amounts should be avoided unless your doctor approves.

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 — Apple Cider Vinegar.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications; heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 162 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 Meijer's Apple Cider Vinegar, check with your own doctor or pharmacist if you take digoxin (Lanoxin) for your heart, diuretic drugs (water pills), insulin, or antidiabetes medications. Apple cider vinegar may lower potassium or blood sugar, both of which could affect how these drugs work.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take digoxin, diuretics, insulin, or diabetes medications, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — the potassium and blood-sugar effects matter for your health. Even if you don't take those drugs, limit yourself to food amounts unless your doctor says otherwise, and avoid applying it straight to your skin.

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with diuretic drugs might increase the risk of hypokalemia.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Insulin

A case of hypokalemia related to chronic use of apple cider vinegar has been reported. Theoretically, overuse of apple cider vinegar concomitantly with insulin might increase the risk of hypokalemia.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Apple Cider Vinegar 480 mg by Meijer: Common Questions

Does Apple Cider Vinegar 480 mg by Meijer interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Apple Cider Vinegar 480 mg has a known interaction with 162 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Apple Cider Vinegar 480 mg 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 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 on a water pill for blood pressure?
Not without checking first. Apple cider vinegar and diuretics together raise the risk of low potassium, which can be serious. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before adding it.
What does apple cider vinegar actually do?
The evidence we have doesn't show it works reliably for acne, athletic performance, brain function, dental plaque, depression, or eczema. If you're considering it for another reason, ask your doctor whether there's evidence to back it up.
Is it safe to take long-term?
Large doses over a long time may not be safe. One reported case involved someone who drank 250 mL daily for six years and developed low potassium, bone loss, and kidney changes. Stick to food amounts unless your doctor approves higher doses.
Can I use this on my skin to treat acne?
The product is a tablet, but applying apple cider vinegar directly to skin has caused chemical burns in published reports. Don't apply it undiluted to your skin.
What are the inactive ingredients?
The tablet contains dicalcium phosphate, cellulose, croscarmellose, vegetable stearic acid, silica, and vegetable magnesium stearate — all common binders and fillers.
Is it safe in pregnancy?
The safety data on file doesn't cover pregnancy, so we can't say either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant or planning to be.
