HelloPharmacist Scorecard of De Dry Eye Omega Benefits by PRN Physician Recommended Nutriceuticals

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

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 4 of its 4 active ingredients.
  • “Total Omega-3 Fatty Acids” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (2,668 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

De Dry Eye Omega Benefits contains four active ingredients. Two are omega-3 fatty acids — eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid — which are the main components of fish oil and are thought to support eye and overall health.

The product also includes vitamin D3 (the active form of vitamin D your body uses) and a total omega-3 blend. The capsule itself is made from fish oil, with natural mixed berry and orange flavoring and mixed tocopherols (a form of vitamin E used as a preservative).

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 Vitamin D's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Vitamin D 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 ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Vitamin D deficiency — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Hypoparathyroidism — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Familial hypophosphatemia — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Osteomalacia — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Renal osteodystrophy — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Vitamin D in this product is effective for treating rickets, renal bone disease, osteomalacia (soft bones from vitamin D deficiency), hypoparathyroidism, and familial hypophosphatemia — all conditions where the body can't use or hold onto vitamin D properly. The evidence we hold doesn't establish how well the omega-3 fatty acids in this product work for dry eye or any other condition.

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.

Vitamin D is generally well tolerated at recommended doses, but very high doses taken over time can build up in your body and cause toxicity — symptoms include high blood calcium, weak bones, eye problems, and in rare cases kidney damage and anemia. Vitamin D is often used during pregnancy at normal amounts, but only under your doctor's guidance.

If you're breastfeeding or thinking of taking more than recommended doses, check with your doctor first. The omega-3 ingredients have no adverse effects or safety data on file.

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 — Vitamin D.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 716 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 you start, double-check if you're on thiazide diuretics, verapamil or diltiazem, digoxin, atorvastatin, calcipotriene, or any medications broken down by CYP3A4 enzymes — all are documented to interact with vitamin D. Altogether, these interactions span 705 individual medications.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in De Dry Eye Omega Benefits 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.

Vitamin D38 drug types · 715 drugs

Aluminum

Vitamin D might increase aluminum absorption and toxicity, but this has only been reported in people with renal failure.
The protein that transports calcium across the intestinal wall can also bind and transport aluminum. This protein is stimulated by vitamin D, which may therefore increase aluminum absorption. This mechanism may contribute to increased aluminum levels and toxicity in people with renal failure, when they take vitamin D and aluminum-containing phosphate binders chronically.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

Vitamin D might reduce absorption of atorvastatin.
A small, low-quality clinical study shows that taking vitamin D reduces levels of atorvastatin and its active metabolites by up to 55%. However, while atorvastatin levels decreased, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels did not substantially change. Atorvastatin is metabolized in the gut by CYP3A4 enzymes, and researchers theorized that vitamin D might induce CYP3A4, causing reduced levels of atorvastatin. However, this proposed mechanism was not specifically studied.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Calcipotriene (Dovonex)

Taking calcipotriene with vitamin D increases the risk for hypercalcemia.
Calcipotriene is a vitamin D analog used topically for psoriasis. It can be absorbed in sufficient amounts to cause systemic effects, including hypercalcemia. Theoretically, combining calcipotriene with vitamin D supplements might increase the risk of hypercalcemia.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, hypercalcemia induced by high-dose vitamin D can increase the risk of arrhythmia from digoxin.
High doses of vitamin D can cause hypercalcemia. Hypercalcemia increases the risk of fatal cardiac arrhythmias with digoxin. Avoid vitamin D doses above the tolerable upper intake level (4000 IU daily for adults) and monitor serum calcium levels in people taking vitamin D and digoxin concurrently.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diltiazem (Cardizem, Others)

Theoretically, hypercalcemia induced by high-dose vitamin D can reduce the therapeutic effects of diltiazem for arrhythmia.
High doses of vitamin D can cause hypercalcemia. Hypercalcemia can reduce the effectiveness of verapamil in atrial fibrillation. Theoretically this could also occur with diltiazem. Avoid vitamin D doses above the tolerable upper intake level (4000 IU daily for adults) and monitor serum calcium levels in people taking vitamin D and diltiazem concurrently.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Thiazide Diuretics

Theoretically, taking thiazide diuretics and high-dose vitamin D can increase the risk of hypercalcemia.
Thiazide diuretics decrease urinary calcium excretion, which could lead to hypercalcemia if vitamin D supplements are taken concurrently. This has been reported in people being treated with vitamin D for hypoparathyroidism, and also in elderly people with normal parathyroid function who were taking a thiazide, vitamin D, and calcium-containing antacids daily.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Verapamil (Calan, Others)

Hypercalcemia induced by high-dose vitamin D can reduce the therapeutic effects of verapamil for arrhythmia.
Hypercalcemia due to high doses of vitamin D can reduce the effectiveness of verapamil in atrial fibrillation. Avoid vitamin D doses above the tolerable upper intake level (4000 IU daily for adults) and monitor serum calcium levels in people taking vitamin D and verapamil concurrently.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Vitamin D might induce CYP3A4 enzymes and reduce the bioavailability of CYP3A4 substrates.
There is some concern that vitamin D might induce CYP3A4. In vitro research suggests that vitamin D induces CYP3A4 transcription. Additionally, observational research has found that increased UV light exposure and serum vitamin D levels are associated with decreased serum levels of CYP3A4 substrates such as tacrolimus and sirolimus, while no association between UV light exposure or vitamin D levels and levels of mycophenolic acid, a non-CYP3A4 substrate, was found. A small, low-quality clinical study shows that taking vitamin D reduces levels of the CYP3A4 substrate atorvastatin and its active metabolites by up to 55%; however, the clinical effects of atorvastatin were not reduced. While researchers theorized that vitamin D might induce CYP3A4, this proposed mechanism was not specifically studied.

De Dry Eye Omega Benefits by PRN Physician Recommended Nutriceuticals: Common Questions

Does De Dry Eye Omega Benefits by PRN Physician Recommended Nutriceuticals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, De Dry Eye Omega Benefits has a known interaction with 715 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
De Dry Eye Omega Benefits contains 5 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.
Is it okay to take this while I'm pregnant?
Vitamin D is often used at normal recommended doses during pregnancy, but you should only do that under your doctor's guidance. We don't have enough data on the omega-3 ingredients to say either way, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice about your pregnancy.
Can I take this if I'm breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for breastfeeding with the omega-3 ingredients in this product. Vitamin D at recommended doses is generally considered acceptable while breastfeeding, but check with your doctor before taking higher amounts.
What does vitamin D do in this product?
Vitamin D helps your body absorb and use calcium, and it's proven to work for conditions like rickets, soft bones, and disorders where your parathyroid gland isn't working right. It's also thought to play a role in eye and immune health, though that evidence isn't established for this product specifically.
Is it safe to take a high dose of this supplement?
Very high doses of vitamin D over time can cause toxicity — your blood calcium can get dangerously high, and you might develop weak bones, eye problems, and in rare cases kidney damage. Stick to the recommended dose on the label and ask your pharmacist if you're unsure what that should be for you.
What are the omega-3s in this for?
The omega-3 fatty acids (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) from fish oil are included because they're thought to support eye and overall health. We don't have evidence data on file for how well they work specifically in this product.
Does this product have any fillers?
Yes — the inactive ingredients include the fish oil capsule shell itself, natural mixed berry and orange flavoring, and mixed tocopherols (a vitamin E preservative).
