HelloPharmacist Scorecard of C.A.C. Factor - S by Nutri-West

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.

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 6 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

C.A.C. Factor - S contains six active ingredients: pantothenic acid (a B vitamin), niacinamide (another B vitamin), vitamin B1, vitamin B2 (riboflavin), manganese (a mineral), and alpha-lipoic acid (also called thioctic acid).

The product has no inactive fillers listed. Together, these support cellular energy and antioxidant function.

Does it work?

Strong 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.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports its ingredients 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Manganese deficiency — rated "Effective" (Manganese) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Pantothenic acid deficiency — rated "Effective" (Pantothenic Acid) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Pellagra — rated "Likely Effective" (Niacinamide) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Acne — rated "Possibly Effective" (Niacinamide) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Diabetes — rated "Possibly Effective" (Niacinamide) (Natural Medicines).

Pantothenic acid is effective for pantothenic acid deficiency but has insufficient evidence for hay fever and other conditions listed. Niacinamide is likely effective for pellagra and possibly effective for acne, high blood sugar, joint health, and cholesterol — though evidence for most of these is limited.

Vitamin B2 effectiveness ratings are not established in our data. Manganese is effective for manganese deficiency and possibly effective for joint health, though evidence for hay fever, bone health, and lung conditions is insufficient.

Alpha-lipoic acid is possibly effective for nerve damage from diabetes, cholesterol, weight, and fat levels in the blood. Overall, evidence is strongest for the B vitamins and manganese in correcting actual deficiencies; evidence for other uses is mixed or incomplete.

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 5 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.

Pantothenic acid and niacinamide are generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses. However, high-dose niacinamide can cause nausea, vomiting, heartburn, gas, diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness, itching, headache, and rash.

Riboflavin is very safe; excess leaves your body in urine, though high doses can cause nausea and bright yellow urine. Manganese is safe in normal food amounts but high supplements may cause Parkinson-like symptoms and, rarely, liver damage — one severe case of irreversible Parkinson disease linked to 100 mg daily for years has been reported.

Alpha-lipoic acid commonly causes headache, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting; rare cases of rash and allergic skin reactions have occurred. Vitamin B1 safety data is not on file.

Pantothenic acid and niacinamide are likely safe in pregnancy and lactation at normal amounts; alpha-lipoic acid should be avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data, and manganese lactation safety is conflicting in the data.

Alpha Lipoic (Thioctic) Acid5 drug types · 263 drugs

Alkylating Agents

Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of alpha-lipoic acid might alter the effectiveness of alkylating agents.
The use of antioxidants like alpha-lipoic acid during chemotherapy is controversial. There are concerns that antioxidants could reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals. However, some researchers theorize that antioxidants might make chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that might interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. More evidence is needed to determine what effect, if any, antioxidants such as alpha-lipoic acid have on chemotherapy. Advise patients to consult their oncologist before using alpha-lipoic acid.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, alpha-lipoic acid may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro, alpha-lipoic acid inhibits platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antitumor Antibiotics

Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of alpha-lipoic acid might alter the effectiveness of antitumor antibiotics.
The use of antioxidants like alpha-lipoic acid during chemotherapy is controversial. There are concerns that antioxidants could reduce the activity of antitumor antibiotic drugs, which work by generating free radicals. However, some researchers theorize that antioxidants might make chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that might interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. More evidence is needed to determine what effect, if any, antioxidants such as alpha-lipoic acid have on chemotherapy involving antitumor antibiotics. Advise patients to consult their oncologist before using alpha-lipoic acid.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Theoretically, alpha-lipoic acid might decrease the effects of thyroid hormone drugs.
Animal research suggests that co-administration of thyroxine with alpha-lipoic acid reduces conversion into the active T3 form.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking alpha-lipoic acid with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Although some small clinical studies have suggested that alpha-lipoic acid can lower blood glucose levels, larger clinical studies in patients with diabetes have shown no clinically meaningful effect. Additionally, co-administration of single doses of alpha-lipoic acid and glyburide or acarbose did not cause detectable drug interactions in healthy volunteers.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Alpha Lipoic (Thioctic) Acid full monograph & interactions

Niacinamide4 drug types · 124 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, niacinamide may have additive effects when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs, especially in patients on hemodialysis.
Several cases of thrombocytopenia have been reported for hemodialysis patients treated with niacinamide 1 gram daily. Hemodialysis patients receiving niacinamide had almost a three-fold higher risk of developing thrombocytopenia when compared with those receiving placebo.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Niacinamide might increase the levels and adverse effects of carbamazepine.
Plasma levels of carbamazepine were increased in two children given high-dose niacinamide, 60-80 mg/kg/day. This might be due to inhibition of the cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in carbamazepine metabolism. There is not enough data to determine the clinical significance of this interaction.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Primidone (Mysoline)

Niacinamide might increase the levels and adverse effects of primidone.
Case reports in children suggest niacinamide 60-100 mg/kg/day reduces hepatic metabolism of primidone to phenobarbital, and reduces the overall clearance rate of primidone; however, there is not enough data to determine the clinical significance of this potential interaction.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

There is limited evidence that niacinamide may increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.
In a case report, a patient on warfarin developed an elevated international normalized ratio (INR) of 8.4 after taking niacinamide 500 mg twice daily for 10 days. The patient's INR was previously stable, ranging between 2 and 3, with no other changes to current medications or diet reported. The elevated INR returned to the therapeutic range after receiving vitamin K and discontinuing niacinamide.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Niacinamide full monograph & interactions

Manganese3 drug types · 83 drugs

Antipsychotic Drugs

Theoretically, the risk for manganese toxicity might increase when taken with antipsychotic drugs.
Hallucinations and behavioral changes have been reported in a patient with liver disease who was taking haloperidol and manganese. Researchers speculate that taking manganese along with haloperidol, phenothiazine-derivatives, or other antipsychotic medications might increase the risk of manganese toxicity in some patients.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Quinolone Antibiotics

Theoretically, manganese might reduce the absorption of quinolone antibiotics.
Manganese is a multivalent cation. Interactions resulting in reduced quinolone absorption have been reported between quinolones and other multivalent cations, such as calcium and iron.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, manganese might reduce the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics.
Manganese is a multivalent cation. Interactions resulting in reduced tetracycline absorption have been reported between tetracyclines and other multivalent cations, such as calcium and iron.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Manganese full monograph & interactions

Vitamin B21 drug type · 20 drugs

Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, taking riboflavin with tetracycline antibiotics may decrease the potency of these antibiotics.
In vitro research suggests that riboflavin may inhibit the potency of tetracycline antibiotics. It is not clear if this effect is clinically significant, as this interaction has not been reported in humans.

C.A.C. Factor - S by Nutri-West: Common Questions

Does C.A.C. Factor - S by Nutri-West interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, C.A.C. Factor - S has a known interaction with 344 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
C.A.C. Factor - S 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.
Does this product have side effects?
The most common ones are headache, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, diarrhea, itching, rash, and dizziness — mostly from niacinamide and alpha-lipoic acid at higher doses. Vitamin B2 at high doses can turn your urine bright yellow, which is harmless. If side effects bother you, stop and talk to your pharmacist.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The B vitamins and manganese at normal amounts are generally fine in pregnancy and breastfeeding, but alpha-lipoic acid doesn't have enough safety data — the facts advise against it. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this if you're pregnant or nursing.
What is manganese in this product for?
Manganese is a mineral that helps with bone health, metabolism, and wound healing. This product is effective for correcting actual manganese deficiency, and possibly helpful for joint health, but evidence for other uses is incomplete.
What does alpha-lipoic acid do?
It's an antioxidant that may help with nerve damage from diabetes, cholesterol levels, weight management, and blood fat levels — though evidence is stronger for some uses than others. It works best under medical guidance, especially if you have diabetes, because it can lower blood sugar.
Can I take this with my seizure medication?
Not without checking first. Niacinamide in this product may raise the levels of carbamazepine and primidone, increasing side effects. Your pharmacist needs to review your specific dose and medication before you start.
Is there enough evidence that this works?
The B vitamins and manganese are effective for actual deficiencies, which is solid. For other uses like joint health and cholesterol, evidence is promising but incomplete — this product works best if you have a real deficiency or your doctor recommends it for a specific condition.
