HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lime Fruit 4:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection
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 product contains one active ingredient: lime fruit extract in a 4:1 concentrated powder form. Lime fruit has been used traditionally in herbal practice, though what it's most reliable for isn't fully established in the research we hold.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence we have for lime fruit extract isn't strong enough to rate it reliably for iron deficiency anemia, malaria, sickle cell disease, or smoking cessation. If you're considering it for any of these reasons, talk with your doctor about what the science actually supports.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Lime as a food in normal amounts is generally well tolerated. However, concentrated extracts like this one are less well studied, and the safety data advises caution — check with your doctor before using it.
Orally, some people have reported diarrhea or tooth sensitivity, though these are rare. Topically, lime oil and juice can cause allergic skin reactions or sun-related skin damage (phytophotodermatitis) when the skin is exposed to sunlight afterward.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check your medications before starting this product if you take photosensitizing drugs (drugs that increase sun sensitivity) or CYP3A4 substrate medications (including some heart, blood pressure, and erectile dysfunction drugs, among others). These are Moderate-severity interactions, meaning they could change how your drugs work or increase side effects.
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're curious about lime extract for general wellness, it's worth knowing that the research on what it actually does is limited. The main caution is that it may interact with medications your liver processes — including some heart and erectile dysfunction drugs — and it can make your skin more sensitive to sun damage.
Before you take this, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your medications and whether concentrated lime extract makes sense for you.

Lime Fruit Extract, Powder monograph & interactionsLime Fruit 4:1 Extract Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
TerraVita Premium Collection's Lime Fruit 4:1 Extract Powder contains lime fruit extract, which has documented interactions with two major drug categories.
The most serious concern is with drugs that make your skin sensitive to sun damage (photosensitizing drugs) — theoretically, lime extract may increase the risk of sun-related skin reactions when used together. Additionally, lime extract may interfere with how your body breaks down certain heart and erectile dysfunction medications (CYP3A4 substrate drugs), potentially allowing them to build up to higher levels in your system.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Although we have interaction data only for these two drug categories, the total count of individual medications affected by this product spans 887 individual medications. Before you start this supplement, run your exact prescriptions through the checker on this page — and if you take heart medications, blood pressure drugs, or similar medications processed by your liver, talk with your doctor or pharmacist first.
