HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Clear Nails Ultra by Romeo Health

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

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 of Probiotic Bacteria MAKTREK” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Clear Nails Ultra contains six active ingredients: two probiotic bacteria strains we could not check (Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BL-04 and Lactobacillus plantarum LP-115), Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-14 (a probiotic linked to digestive and vaginal health), Lactobacillus paracasei LPC-37 (another probiotic we could not check), Fructooligosaccharides (a soluble fiber that feeds beneficial bacteria), and Marine Polysaccharide Complex (which we could not check). The capsule also contains inactive ingredients: cellulose, rice maltodextrin, and L-leucine.

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:

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“supports healthy digestion and digestive system”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Antibiotic-associated diarrhea — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Bacterial vaginosis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Helicobacter pylori — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).

Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-14 is possibly effective for irritable bowel syndrome, Helicobacter pylori infection, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and bacterial vaginosis, though the evidence is modest. It's rated possibly ineffective for atopic disease, and we don't have enough data to rate it for acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Fructooligosaccharides don't have established evidence in our data for osteoporosis, constipation, diabetes, travelers' diarrhea, or high cholesterol. For the other four active ingredients — Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BL-04, Lactobacillus plantarum LP-115, Lactobacillus paracasei LPC-37, and Marine Polysaccharide Complex — we hold no effectiveness ratings.

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.

Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-14 is generally well tolerated in healthy adults and children. Since it contains live organisms, there's a theoretical concern about infection in some patients, though serious cases are rare.

Orally taken, it may cause uncommon gastrointestinal side effects like abdominal pain, bloating, flatulence, diarrhea, or vomiting. Fructooligosaccharides are generally well tolerated at food levels but can cause gas and bloating at higher doses; a review of clinical trials found doses of 2.5 to 15 grams daily for up to 8 weeks didn't increase these symptoms more than placebo, though supplement-level safety data are limited.

We hold no pregnancy or lactation data for any ingredient in this product.

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?
  • 1 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lactobacillus Acidophilus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 182 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.

If you take antibiotic drugs, tell your pharmacist — Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-14 can be reduced in effectiveness by antibiotics, and you'll want to separate the doses. For the four ingredients we couldn't check interaction data for, run your medications through the search tool on this page before starting.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is designed as a probiotic blend for digestive health. Lactobacillus acidophilus has modest evidence for certain digestive and vaginal concerns, but we couldn't check most of the other ingredients for interactions or effectiveness.

If you take antibiotics, talk to your pharmacist about timing. Since we have no pregnancy or lactation safety data on file, check with your doctor if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Antibiotic Drugs

Theoretically, taking Lactobacillus acidophilus with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of L. acidophilus.
L. acidophilus preparations usually contain live and active organisms. Therefore, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and L. acidophilus preparations by at least two hours.
