HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Grassfed Ox Bile 1,000 mg by eleva NUTRITION
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 supplement has two active ingredients. Ox bile powder is the main component — it's a digestive extract that helps break down fats.
Black pepper powder is added, likely for its piperine content, which may help your body absorb nutrients more readily. The product also contains methylcellulose, an inactive ingredient used as a binder and filler in the capsule.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence we hold doesn't establish how well these ingredients work for any condition. Black pepper has been studied for hay fever, asthma, athletic performance, headache, depression, and diarrhea, but the research is insufficient to rate whether it actually helps.
We hold no effectiveness data for ox bile in this product.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Black pepper, in the amounts found in food or in a single dose as medicine, is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are a burning aftertaste, indigestion, and reduced taste perception.
Inhaling it can cause cough. Allergic reactions are rare but have been reported in sensitive people.
The caution here is that concentrated piperine supplements haven't been studied as thoroughly as food-strength black pepper — if you're taking this regularly, talk with your pharmacist first. We hold no pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data for either ingredient in this product.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check this product against any seizure medication (phenytoin especially), blood pressure medication (propranolol), HIV medication (nevirapine), antibiotics (rifampin, theophylline), heart transplant drugs (cyclosporine), cholesterol medication (atorvastatin), or sedatives (pentobarbital). All are Moderate-severity interactions with the black pepper in this formula.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
If you take seizure medication, blood pressure drugs, HIV therapy, or any antibiotic or heart medication, check with your pharmacist before using this product — black pepper's piperine can raise how much of these drugs your body absorbs. For others, it's generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplements warrant a quick conversation with us.

Grassfed Ox Bile 1,000 mg by eleva NUTRITION Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Grassfed Ox Bile 1,000 mg by eleva NUTRITION contains black pepper, which does interact with medications.
The most serious concern is with seizure medications like phenytoin (Dilantin). Black pepper contains a compound called piperine that can significantly increase how much phenytoin your body absorbs and how long it stays in your system — research shows it may roughly double phenytoin blood levels, which could raise the risk of side effects or toxicity.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Black pepper also interacts with several other drug types at a Moderate severity level: blood pressure medications like propranolol, HIV medications like nevirapine, antibiotics like rifampin and theophylline (used for breathing problems), heart transplant rejection drugs like cyclosporine, cholesterol medications like atorvastatin, and sedatives like pentobarbital. In each case, piperine may increase how much of the drug your body absorbs or how long it circulates, which can raise side effects or make the medication stronger than intended.
We hold no interaction data for the other active ingredient, ox bile powder. Altogether, these interactions span 1,005 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Grassfed Ox Bile 1,000 mg 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.
Black Pepper, Powder
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, black pepper might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to inhibit platelet aggregation. This has not been reported in humans.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, black pepper might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, can reduce blood glucose levels. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.
Atorvastatin (Lipitor)
Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of atorvastatin.
Animal research shows that taking piperine, a constituent of black pepper, 35 mg/kg can increase the maximum serum concentration of atorvastatin three-fold. This has not been reported in humans.
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)
Theoretically, black pepper might increase the effects and side effects of cyclosporine.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases the bioavailability of cyclosporine. This has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates
Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research suggests that some constituents of black pepper inhibit CYP2D6. This has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research and pharmacokinetic simulation data suggest that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, as well as the pepper fruit seem to inhibit CYP3A4. This has not been reported in humans.
Lithium
Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of lithium due to its diuretic effects. The dose of lithium might need to be reduced.
Black pepper is thought to have diuretic properties.
Nevirapine (Viramune)
Black pepper might increase blood levels of nevirapine.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases the plasma concentration of nevirapine. However, no adverse effects were observed in this study.
P-Glycoprotein Substrates
Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to inhibit P-glycoprotein.
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)
Theoretically, black pepper might increase the sedative effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases pentobarbital-induced sleeping time.
Phenytoin (Dilantin)
Black pepper might increase blood levels of phenytoin.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption, slow elimination, and increase levels of phenytoin. Taking a single dose of black pepper 1 gram along with phenytoin seems to double the serum concentration of phenytoin. Consuming a soup with black pepper providing piperine 44 mg/200 mL of soup along with phenytoin also seems to increase phenytoin levels when compared with consuming the same soup without black pepper.
Propranolol (Inderal)
Black pepper might increase blood levels of propranolol.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and slow elimination of propranolol.
Rifampin (Rifadin)
Black pepper might increase blood levels of rifampin.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and serum levels of rifampin.
Theophylline
Black pepper might increase blood levels of theophylline.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and slow elimination of theophylline.
Amoxicillin (Amoxil, Trimox)
Theoretically, black pepper might increase the effects and side effects of amoxicillin.
Animal research shows that taking piperine, a constituent of black pepper, with amoxicillin increases plasma levels of amoxicillin. This has not been reported in humans.
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)
Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of carbamazepine, potentially increasing the effects and side effects of carbamazepine.
One clinical study in patients taking carbamazepine 300 mg or 500 mg twice daily shows that taking a single 20 mg dose of purified piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases carbamazepine levels. Piperine may increase carbamazepine absorption by increasing blood flow to the GI tract, increasing the surface area of the small intestine, or inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) in the gut wall. Absorption was significantly increased by 7-10 mcg/mL/hour. The time to eliminate carbamazepine was also increased by 4-8 hours. Although carbamazepine levels were increased, this did not appear to increase side effects. In vitro research also shows that piperine can increase carbamazepine levels by 11% in a time-dependent manner.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, black pepper might decrease levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research suggests that black pepper induces CYP1A2. This has not been reported in humans.
