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 10 active ingredients.

intraMAX contains 10 active ingredients: amino acids (building blocks your body uses for muscle and other tissues), bioflavonoids (plant compounds with antioxidant properties), antioxidants (substances that protect cells from damage), herbs, vegetables, super green foods, vitamin sources, electrolytes (minerals that help with hydration and nerve function), probiotics (beneficial live bacteria), and fruits. There are no inactive ingredients listed for this product.

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?
  • 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Respiratory tract infections — rated "Possibly Effective" (Probiotics) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Hypercholesterolemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Probiotics) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Pouchitis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Probiotics) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Liver transplant — rated "Possibly Effective" (Probiotics) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Atopic dermatitis (eczema) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Probiotics) (Natural Medicines).

The antioxidants in this product show possibly ineffective evidence for preventing cardiovascular disease, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and cataracts. The probiotics are possibly effective for atopic dermatitis (eczema), respiratory tract infections, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, constipation, atopic disease, and bacterial vaginosis.

For the other ingredients, the effectiveness data isn't established in what we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Antioxidants Probiotics

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 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.

Antioxidants are very safe when you get them from food, but high-dose supplements may carry risks for some people—check with your doctor before taking a high-dose supplement unless they've recommended it. Probiotics are generally well tolerated in healthy people but should only be used under medical guidance if you're seriously ill or have a weakened immune system.

Rarely, probiotics may cause rash, itching, redness, dermatitis, or digestive upset like diarrhea, bloating, or nausea. Pregnancy and lactation data suggest probiotics are possibly safe, though the safety evidence is limited—discuss with your healthcare provider before use.

Pregnancy data for antioxidants suggests possibly safe, though dietary amounts are fine; high-dose supplements need your doctor's okay.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Antioxidants Probiotics

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 — Probiotics.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 222 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 or antifungal drugs, check with your pharmacist first. Antibiotics (Moderate interaction) and antifungals (Minor interaction) may reduce how well the probiotics in this product work.

Your pharmacist can suggest the best timing or whether you need to adjust anything.

For each ingredient in intraMAX Peach Mango Flavor 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.

Probiotics2 drug types · 222 drugs

Antibiotic Drugs

Theoretically, taking antibiotic drugs with certain probiotics might decrease the effectiveness of probiotics.
Many probiotics are bacteria. Since these preparations usually contain live and active organisms, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of sensitive organisms. Human research shows that taking probiotic concurrently with antibiotic treatment does not affect the diversity of the gut microbiome compared with antibiotic treatment in the absence of probiotics. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and these preparations by at least two hours.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Antifungals

Theoretically, taking antifungals with certain probiotics might decrease the effectiveness of probiotics.
Some probiotics such as Saccharomyces boulardii are fungi. Therefore, simultaneously taking antifungals might kill a significant number of these organisms.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

intraMAX Peach Mango Flavor by Drucker Labs: Common Questions

Does intraMAX Peach Mango Flavor by Drucker Labs interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, intraMAX Peach Mango Flavor has a known interaction with 222 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
intraMAX Peach Mango Flavor contains 10 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.
Does intraMAX have any side effects?
Probiotics in it rarely cause rash, itching, redness, or digestive upset like diarrhea, bloating, nausea, or stomach pain. If you're healthy with a normal immune system, side effects are uncommon. If you're seriously ill or immunocompromised, talk with your doctor first.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The probiotics and antioxidants in this product are rated possibly safe during pregnancy and lactation, but the safety evidence is limited. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you before you start.
Does intraMAX actually work?
The probiotics show possibly effective evidence for eczema, respiratory infections, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, constipation, and bacterial vaginosis. The antioxidants show only possibly ineffective evidence for the conditions studied. The other ingredients lack effectiveness data in our records.
What are the probiotics in this product for?
Probiotics are beneficial live bacteria that may help with digestive health, immune function, and skin conditions like eczema. They're possibly effective for preventing respiratory infections and reducing diarrhea caused by antibiotics.
Can I take this with antibiotics?
Taking probiotics at the same time as antibiotics may reduce how well the probiotics work, since antibiotics can kill the live bacteria in the supplement. Ask your pharmacist about the best timing or whether you should adjust anything.
