HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Liposomal A by DaVinci Laboratories

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Liposomal A is a single-ingredient supplement: vitamin A in a liposomal form (a delivery system designed to help absorption). The inactive ingredients are glycerin, water, sunflower oil, natural flavors, oleic acid polyglyceride, sunflower lecithin, potassium citrate, xanthan gum, and rosmarinic acid.

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 A's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Vitamin A 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 A deficiency — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Aging skin — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Ulcerative colitis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Measles — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Vitamin A is effective for treating vitamin A deficiency. The evidence is possibly effective for oral leukoplakia, aging skin, measles, ulcerative colitis, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia, though the data supporting those uses is less robust.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin A

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 A is generally well tolerated at recommended doses, but it builds up in your body and can become toxic at high levels. Very high doses are rare but can cause serious effects: brain swelling (pseudotumor cerebri), liver damage, headache, vision problems, and in extreme cases, coma or death.

Chronic overuse causes fatigue, dry and peeling skin, hair loss, and brittle nails. The safety data on vitamin A in pregnancy is mixed: normal dietary and recommended supplement amounts are fine, but high-dose supplements—especially retinol—are possibly unsafe and may cause birth defects.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitamin A.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 388 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.

Check your medications if you take retinoids (like tretinoin or isotretinoin for acne or psoriasis)—this is the most serious risk. Also double-check before taking this if you're on warfarin, tetracycline antibiotics, or any drug known to affect liver function.

Vitamin A4 drug types · 387 drugs

Retinoids

Concomitant use of retinoids with vitamin A supplements might produce supratherapeutic vitamin A levels.
Retinoids, which are vitamin A derivatives, could have additive toxic effects when taken with vitamin A supplements.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking high doses of vitamin A in combination with other potentially hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver disease.
The tolerable upper intake level (UL) is the highest level of intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects. Doses of vitamin A above the UL can cause hepatotoxicity, ranging from elevated liver enzymes to liver failure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence C
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, taking tetracycline antibiotics with high doses of vitamin A can increase the risk of pseudotumor cerebri.
Benign intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri) can occur with tetracyclines and with acute or chronic vitamin A toxicity. Case reports suggest that taking tetracyclines and vitamin A concurrently can increase the risk of this condition. Avoid high doses of vitamin A in people taking tetracyclines chronically.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, high doses of vitamin A could increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Vitamin A toxicity is associated with hemorrhage and hypoprothrombinemia, possibly due to vitamin K antagonism. Advise patients taking warfarin to avoid doses of vitamin A above the tolerable upper intake level of 10,000 IU/day for adults.

Liposomal A by DaVinci Laboratories: Common Questions

Does Liposomal A by DaVinci Laboratories interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Liposomal A has a known interaction with 387 medications, including 9 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Liposomal A contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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.
What is liposomal vitamin A and why is it in this form?
Liposomal vitamin A is vitamin A wrapped in tiny fat-based particles designed to improve how your body absorbs it. The liposomal delivery system is meant to get the nutrient into your system more effectively than standard forms.
Is this safe to take every day?
At recommended doses, yes—vitamin A is generally well tolerated. But because it builds up in your body, taking more than recommended over time can become toxic. Stick to the label directions and avoid stacking it with other vitamin A sources.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
Normal dietary amounts and recommended supplement doses are fine, but the safety data is mixed—high doses are possibly unsafe and may cause birth defects. Talk with your doctor before taking this product if you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
What's vitamin A actually used for in the body?
Vitamin A is essential for vision, immune function, skin health, and cell growth. It's effective for treating deficiency, and there's some evidence it may help with leukoplakia, aging skin, measles, and other conditions—though those uses aren't as firmly established.
What are the signs I'm taking too much?
Early signs include fatigue, dry and cracking skin, hair loss, and brittle nails. In severe cases, you might have headaches, blurred vision, dizziness, or liver problems. If you notice any of these, stop and talk to your pharmacist right away.
Are there any fillers or extra stuff in this?
Yes, the inactive ingredients are glycerin, water, sunflower oil, natural flavors, oleic acid polyglyceride, sunflower lecithin, potassium citrate, xanthan gum, and rosmarinic acid—these are excipients that make the liquid form stable and palatable.
