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 1 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • “PreforPro” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (15 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Clarify U.T.S. contains six active ingredients. Pacran is a cranberry extract, traditionally used to help with urinary tract infections.

DE111 Bacillus subtilis is a live probiotic strain meant to support digestive health. The product also includes four other ingredients — Myoviridae LH01, Siphoviridae LL5, Myoviridae T4D, and Myoviridae LL12 — which appear to be bacteriophages (viruses that target bacteria).

PreforPro is a prebiotic blend designed to feed beneficial gut bacteria. The capsule is filled with inactive ingredients including vegetable cellulose, silicon dioxide, medium chain triglycerides, and rice dextrin.

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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: urinary tract health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Urinary tract infections (UTIs), Overactive bladder, Urinary odor, Radiation-induced cystitis, Catheter-related infections, bladder health — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Cranberry is rated "Possibly Effective" for Urinary tract infections (UTIs) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Cranberry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Urinary odor, Overactive bladder, Catheter-related infections, Radiation-induced cystitis.

Cranberry in this product is rated possibly effective for urinary tract infections (UTIs) — the main condition it's marketed for. For other uses listed in the cranberry research — age-related cognitive decline, prostate health, cancer prevention, liver disease, and chronic fatigue — the evidence is insufficient to rate it either way.

Bacillus subtilis is rated possibly effective for antibiotic-associated diarrhea, but for athletic performance, cirrhosis, constipation, eczema, and diabetes, the evidence is also insufficient. We hold no effectiveness data for the bacteriophages or PreforPro.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Cranberry Bacillus Subtilis

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Cranberry is rated likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. When taken by mouth, both cranberry and Bacillus subtilis are generally well tolerated in most people.

The most common side effects from cranberry are diarrhea and stomach discomfort, especially at high doses — drinking very large amounts (3 to 4 liters of juice daily) or taking concentrated supplements for weeks can cause nausea, vomiting, and abdominal upset. One case of skin redness and itching has been reported.

Bacillus subtilis is generally well tolerated in healthy adults, though one headache was reported in a trial, and diarrhea rarely. There is one serious case of Bacillus subtilis infection (bacteremia) reported in an elderly patient with multiple health conditions who consumed fermented soy regularly; infection resolved when consumption stopped and antibiotics were given.

Because concentrated supplement doses of cranberry and the safety of Bacillus subtilis preparations haven't been fully studied, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Cranberry, Bacillus Subtilis.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 875 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 Clarify U.T.S., double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on heart or blood pressure medications like nifedipine or atorvastatin — cranberry may raise their levels (Moderate severity). Also check if you're taking warfarin or other blood thinners, as cranberry might increase bleeding risk (Moderate).

If you're on antibiotics, you'll need to separate them from the Bacillus subtilis in this capsule (Moderate). Tell your provider about any pain relievers like diclofenac you're taking, though the risk is lower (Minor).

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is aimed at urinary tract health, with cranberry rated possibly effective for UTIs. If you take heart, blood pressure, cholesterol, or blood-thinning medications, you'll want to check those against the interactions from cranberry before starting — talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist first.

If you're on antibiotics, separate them from the Bacillus subtilis in this product so the probiotic isn't killed. Four of the six ingredients couldn't be checked for drug interactions.

Pacran6 drug types · 712 drugs

Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

Theoretically, cranberry might increase levels and adverse effects of atorvastatin.
In one case report, a patient taking atorvastatin experienced upper back pain, rhabdomyolysis, and abnormal liver function after drinking cranberry juice 16 ounces daily for 2 weeks. Theoretically, this may have been caused by inhibition of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzymes by cranberry juice, as atorvastatin is a CYP3A4 substrate. Creatinine kinase and liver enzymes normalized within 2 weeks of stopping cranberry juice. Patients taking atorvastatin should avoid large quantities of cranberry juice.

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

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
A case of upper back pain, rhabdomyolysis, and abnormal liver function has been reported for a patient taking atorvastatin, a CYP3A4 substrate, in combination with cranberry juice 16 ounces daily for 2 weeks. Creatinine kinase and liver enzymes normalized within 2 weeks of stopping cranberry juice. Also, animal research suggests that cranberry juice, administered intraduodenally 30 minutes prior to nifedipine, a CYP3A4 substrate, inhibits nifedipine metabolism and increases the area under the concentration-time curve by 1.6-fold compared to control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nifedipine (Procardia)

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of nifedipine.
Animal research suggests that cranberry juice, administered intraduodenally 30 minutes prior to nifedipine treatment, inhibits nifedipine metabolism and increases the area under the concentration-time curve by 1.6-fold compared to control. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of warfarin. However, research is conflicting.
There is contradictory evidence about the effect of cranberry juice on warfarin. Case reports have linked cranberry juice consumption to increases in the international normalized ratio (INR) in patients taking warfarin, resulting in severe spontaneous bleeding and excessive postoperative bleeding. Daily consumption of cranberry sauce for one week has also been linked to an increase in INR in one case report. In a small study in healthy young males, taking a high dose of 3 grams of cranberry juice concentrate capsules, equivalent to 57 grams of fruit daily, for 2 weeks produced a 30% increase in the area under the INR-time curve after a single 25-mg dose of warfarin. However, 3 very small clinical studies in patients stabilized on warfarin reported that cranberry juice 250 mL once or twice daily for 7 days (27% cranberry juice or pure cranberry juice) or 240 mL once daily for 14 days does not significantly increase INR or affect plasma warfarin levels. The reasons for these discrepant findings are unclear. It is possible that the form and dose of cranberry may play a role, as cranberry extracts and juices contain different constituents. Additionally, an in vitro study evaluating 5 different cranberry juices found varying effects, with only a cranberry concentrate, and not diluted cranberry juices, inhibiting CYP2C9. However, this concentrate did not inhibit CYP2C9 activity in humans.

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

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2C9 substrates. However, research is conflicting.
There is contradictory evidence about the effect of cranberry on CYP2C9 enzymes. In vitro evidence suggests that flavonoids in cranberry inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. However, clinical research shows that cranberry juice does not significantly affect the levels, metabolism, or elimination of the CYP2C9 substrates flurbiprofen or diclofenac. Also, in patients stabilized on warfarin, drinking cranberry juice 250 mL daily for 7 days does not significantly increase the anticoagulant activity of warfarin, a CYP2C9 substrate. Additional pharmacokinetic research shows that cranberry juice does not increase peak plasma concentrations or area under the concentration-time curve of warfarin.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Diclofenac (Voltaren, Others)

Theoretically, cranberry might modestly increase the levels and adverse effects of diclofenac.
In vitro evidence suggests that cranberry juice inhibits diclofenac metabolism by human liver microsomes. However, drinking cranberry juice does not seem to affect diclofenac metabolism in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B

DE111 Bacillus subtillis1 drug type · 182 drugs

Antibiotic Drugs

Theoretically, taking Bacillus subtilis with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of B. subtilis.
Since B. subtilis preparations usually contain live and active organisms, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and B. subtilis preparations by at least 2 hours.

Clarify U.T.S. by Physician's Signature: Common Questions

Does Clarify U.T.S. by Physician's Signature interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Clarify U.T.S. has a known interaction with 874 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Clarify U.T.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.
Will this help my urinary tract infection?
Cranberry, the main ingredient here, is rated possibly effective for UTIs based on the evidence we have. That said, it's not a substitute for medical treatment — if you have a UTI, see your doctor for proper diagnosis and antibiotics if needed. Cranberry may help reduce the risk of future infections, but it's not a cure on its own.
What are the bacteriophages in this product for?
We don't have effectiveness data on file for Myoviridae LH01, Siphoviridae LL5, Myoviridae T4D, or Myoviridae LL12. Bacteriophages are viruses that target bacteria, and they may be included to support urinary or digestive health, but the evidence for them isn't in our data.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Cranberry is rated likely safe during pregnancy and lactation, so that ingredient is okay. We don't have pregnancy or lactation safety data on file for the Bacillus subtilis or the bacteriophages, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist to make sure the whole product is right for you while breastfeeding.
What side effects should I watch for?
Diarrhea and stomach discomfort are the most common, especially from cranberry. Nausea, vomiting, and abdominal upset have been reported with larger doses or supplements over weeks. Bacillus subtilis rarely causes diarrhea; one headache was reported in a trial. Skin redness and itching from cranberry have been reported once.
Is this safe to take with my antibiotics?
Not at the same time. If you're on antibiotics, space them out from this product — antibiotics can kill the live Bacillus subtilis organisms, making the probiotic less effective. Ask your pharmacist exactly how to time them.
What's in the capsule itself?
The inactive ingredients are vegetable cellulose (the capsule material), silicon dioxide, medium chain triglycerides, and rice dextrin — these are fillers and binders that hold the capsule together.
