HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Bacopa 450 mg 10% Extract 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.

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 one active ingredient: bacopa extract standardized to 10% concentration, supplied at 450 mg per capsule. Bacopa is a plant used in traditional medicine for memory and cognitive support.

The capsule itself is made from gelatin and water, which are inactive ingredients that hold the extract together.

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 Bacopa product and its label doesn't state a use — see Bacopa'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 for bacopa's effectiveness isn't established in the data we hold. Studies have looked at it for Alzheimer disease, sexual dysfunction, ADHD, back pain, and various cognitive issues, but the available evidence is insufficient to rate whether it actually works for any of these uses.

If you're considering bacopa for a specific reason, that's worth discussing with your doctor to see what the broader research shows and whether it makes sense for you.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bacopa

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.

Bacopa is generally well tolerated in studies, though long-term safety data are limited and quality varies. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal — abdominal cramps, diarrhea, nausea, dry mouth, and headache — with rates of stomach or bowel symptoms ranging from 12% to 30% in trials.

Some people also report drowsiness, insomnia, or vivid dreams. Because there isn't enough safety information, the data advises against bacopa during pregnancy and while breastfeeding; talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance if you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing.

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 — Bacopa.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 931 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 bacopa, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take any medications broken down by your liver's CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 enzymes (Moderate severity) — this includes hundreds of common drugs. Also check if you take anticholinergic drugs, cholinergic drugs, cevimeline (Evoxac), or thyroid hormone (all Moderate except thyroid, which is Minor severity).

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.

Bacopa might appeal to you if you're interested in cognitive or memory support and want to try a traditional herbal approach. However, you should be careful if you take medications metabolized by your liver's cytochrome P450 enzymes, anticholinergic or cholinergic drugs, cevimeline, or thyroid hormone — all of which can interact with bacopa.

Before you start, check your medications with the search tool here and then talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to make sure it's right for you.

Bacopa extract8 drug types · 930 drugs

Anticholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use might decrease the effectiveness of both agents.
Bacopa seems to inhibit acetylcholinesterase and might increase acetylcholine levels, which could counteract the effects of anticholinergic drugs. Similarly, anticholinergic drugs might counteract the cholinergic effects of bacopa.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cevimeline (Evoxac)

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the effects and adverse effects of cevimeline.
In one case, a 58-year-old female taking cevimeline long-term for Sjogren syndrome experienced hyperhidrosis, malaise, nausea, and tachycardia shortly after taking a single dose of bacopa. Symptoms resolved after two days. Cevimeline is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 and CYP3A4, and researchers theorize that bacopa may have inhibited these isoenzymes. However, it is unclear if bacopa causes clinically significant inhibition of either CYP2D6 or CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use of bacopa with other cholinergic drugs might have additive effects.
Bacopa seems to inhibit acetylcholinesterase and might increase acetylcholine levels. Theoretically, this could result in additive cholinergic effects when used with cholinergic drugs.

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

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
Research on the effects of bacopa extracts on CYP1A2 enzymes is conflicting. Some in vitro evidence shows that bacopa extract can moderately and non-competitively inhibit CYP1A2, while other in vitro evidence suggests that any effect is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that bacopa extract can moderately and non-competitively inhibit CYP2C19 enzymes. It is not known whether this is clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2C9 substrates.
Research on the effect of bacopa extracts on CYP2C9 enzymes is conflicting. Some in vitro evidence suggests that bacopa extract can moderately and non-competitively inhibit CYP2C9, while other in vitro evidence suggests that any effect is unlikely to be clinically significant.

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

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
Research on the effects of bacopa extracts on CYP3A4 enzymes is conflicting. Some in vitro evidence suggests that bacopa extract can moderately and competitively inhibit CYP3A4, while other in vitro evidence suggests that any effect is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Theoretically, bacopa might have additive effects when used with thyroid hormone.
Animal research suggests that bacopa increases thyroxine (T4) levels in mice by about 40%.

Bacopa 450 mg 10% Extract by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Bacopa 450 mg 10% Extract by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Bacopa 450 mg 10% Extract has a known interaction with 930 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Bacopa 450 mg 10% Extract 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.
What's bacopa actually for in this supplement?
Bacopa is a plant traditionally used to support memory and cognitive function. The evidence for whether it actually works isn't established yet, but some people use it hoping to help with focus, learning, or age-related cognitive changes.
What are the most common side effects I should expect?
Bacopa most often causes stomach or bowel issues — abdominal cramps, diarrhea, nausea, and constipation happen in about 12% to 30% of people in studies. You might also get a dry mouth, headache, drowsiness, or vivid dreams. These effects were generally mild enough that people stayed in the studies.
Is it safe to take while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety information, so the data advises against using bacopa during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they know your situation and can help you decide what's best for you and your baby.
Why does this product interact with so many medications?
Bacopa affects how your liver breaks down certain drugs — four major enzyme systems that handle hundreds of common medications like blood pressure drugs, statins, and some antidepressants. It also affects neurotransmitters in your brain, which means it can interact with drugs that target those same systems.
If I'm on thyroid medication, is bacopa a problem?
Animal research suggests bacopa might add to the effects of thyroid hormone, which is a Minor-severity interaction. That doesn't mean you can't take them together, but you should mention it to your doctor or pharmacist so they can keep an eye on how you're doing.
How long have people been using bacopa safely?
Bacopa has a long history in traditional medicine, but the safety data from modern studies are limited and quality varies. We know it's generally well tolerated in the short term, but we don't have solid information about long-term use, so that's another thing to discuss with your doctor or pharmacist if you're thinking about taking it regularly.
