HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Collagen Peptides Vanilla by NaturesPlus
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
This powder has 4 active ingredients. Sodium is present in the formula — this matters if you're watching your salt intake or taking certain medications.
Protease is an enzyme that breaks down protein. The other two are medium chain triglyceride (a type of fat) and a blend of collagen peptides from grass-fed beef, fish, chicken, and eggshell membrane — the proteins that give the supplement its structure-supporting role.
The formula also includes natural flavors and stevia as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The collagen peptides in this product are possibly effective for aging skin and dry skin, based on the evidence we have. For muscle strength, the data suggests it's possibly ineffective.
For acne and athletic performance, we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate it either way. We have no established evidence for protease or medium chain triglyceride in this product.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Collagen peptides are generally well tolerated as a dietary protein, though a small number of people may experience nausea, upset stomach, diarrhea, or gas — these are rare. Protease is also generally well tolerated for most adults but may cause digestive upset or allergic reactions in some people.
Sodium itself is essential in small amounts, but too much is linked to high blood pressure and heart strain; normal dietary sodium is fine, but avoid sodium supplements or very high intake without checking with your doctor first. Neither collagen nor protease has been well studied in pregnancy, so talk with your doctor before using if you're pregnant.
For breastfeeding, there's little safety data for protease, so medical advice is recommended.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you take this product, double-check your medications if you're on lithium (mood disorder), antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure), corticosteroids (steroids), didanosine (HIV), sodium phosphates (bowel prep), tolvaptan (water balance), or any other sodium-containing drugs. The sodium in this powder can affect how these work or raise your blood sodium too high.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a collagen supplement that may help with aging or dry skin. If you take lithium, blood pressure medication, steroids, or any HIV drugs, check with your pharmacist or doctor before starting — the sodium content matters for these medications.
It's generally well tolerated otherwise, though a few people may have mild digestive side effects.

Collagen Peptides Vanilla by NaturesPlus Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
NaturesPlus Collagen Peptides Vanilla contains sodium, which can interact with a number of medications.
The most serious concern is with lithium (used for bipolar disorder): high sodium intake reduces lithium levels in your blood, while low sodium intake can raise them dangerously and cause lithium toxicity. If you take lithium, changing your sodium intake — even from food — needs your doctor's approval.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Sodium in this product may also affect antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medications), corticosteroids (steroids), and didanosine (an HIV medication) by raising your blood sodium or reducing how well blood pressure drugs work. It can interact with sodium phosphates (used for bowel prep), tolvaptan (a water-balance medication), and other sodium-containing drugs.
Altogether, these interactions span 203 individual medications.
We could not check the collagen peptides or medium chain triglyceride for interactions — we hold no data for them. We found no documented interactions for protease.
Before you start this product, use the medication checker below with your exact prescriptions, especially if you take any blood pressure medication, lithium, steroids, or HIV medications.

For each ingredient in Collagen Peptides Vanilla with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Sodium
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, a high intake of dietary sodium might reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs.
High intake of dietary sodium can increase systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Also, high intake of sodium may necessitate increased use of antihypertensive medications to achieve blood pressure control in some patients, such as those with chronic kidney disease.
Corticosteroids
Concomitant use of mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids (corticosteroids) cause sodium retention. This effect is dose-related and depends on mineralocorticoid potency. It is most common with hydrocortisone, cortisone, and fludrocortisone, followed by prednisone and prednisolone.
Didanosine (Videx)
Concomitant use of didanosine with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Didanosine formulations contain a significant amount of sodium.
Lithium
Altering dietary intake of sodium might alter the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
High sodium intake can reduce plasma concentrations of lithium by increasing lithium excretion. Reducing sodium intake can significantly increase plasma concentrations of lithium and cause lithium toxicity in patients being treated with lithium carbonate. Stabilizing sodium intake is shown to reduce the percentage of patients with lithium level fluctuations above 0.8 mEq/L. Patients taking lithium should avoid significant alterations in their dietary intake of sodium.
Sodium Phosphates
Theoretically, concomitant use of sodium phosphate with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Use of high doses (> 45 mL in 24 hours) of sodium phosphate, such as those used for bowel cleansing before surgery, can lead to serious electrolyte disturbances, including hypernatremia. The risk of hypernatremia is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.
Sodium-Containing Drugs
Concomitant use of sodium-containing drugs with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia and long-term sodium-related complications.
The Chronic Disease Risk Reduction (CDRR) intake level of 2.3 grams of sodium daily indicates the intake at which it is believed that chronic disease risk increases for the apparently healthy population. Some medications contain high quantities of sodium. When used in conjunction with sodium supplements or high-sodium diets, the CDRR may be exceeded. Additionally, concomitant use may increase the risk for hypernatremia; this risk is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.
Tolvaptan (Samsca)
Theoretically, concomitant use of tolvaptan with sodium might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Tolvaptan is a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist that is used to increase sodium levels in patients with hyponatremia. Patients taking tolvaptan should use caution with the use of sodium salts such as sodium chloride.
