HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Liquid Chlorophyll 50 mg Peppermint Flavor by VitaDrops

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This liquid contains 2 active ingredients: chlorophyll (the green pigment from plants that gives the product its color and main action) and copper, a mineral your body needs in small amounts. The other ingredients — glycerin, purified water, and peppermint oil — are inactive ingredients that help deliver and flavor the product.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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
Not assessable

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Boosts energy and daily detox support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Detoxification, Energy support.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

We don't have strong evidence that chlorophyll works for the conditions it's often marketed for — wound healing, herpes, shingles, or skin cancer — the data we hold rates those as insufficient. Copper, on the other hand, is likely effective for copper deficiency, but it's possibly ineffective for Alzheimer disease.

For acne, brain tumor, and chemotherapy-related anemia, the evidence on file isn't strong enough to rate it either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Copper Chlorophyll

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 2 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.

Copper is safe in food and standard supplement amounts, but excess copper is toxic — this product is safe at recommended doses, though high-dose copper supplements should only be taken under medical guidance. Chlorophyll is generally well tolerated in short-term use, though thorough safety testing is limited.

The most common side effect is photosensitization (increased sun sensitivity); rarely, oral chlorophyll has been linked to pseudoporphyria, a blistering condition. A small number of children in one trial developed superficial burns from topical copper sulfate, though that's a different form and concentration than this product.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Chlorophyll, Copper.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 368 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 taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you use methotrexate (Trexall), penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen), birth control pills, or any photosensitizing drugs (medications that increase sun sensitivity). No other interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check.

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 methotrexate, penicillamine, or birth control pills, or if you're on medications that increase sun sensitivity, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — the interactions are documented and dosing or timing changes may be needed. Otherwise, this product is generally well tolerated for short-term use, but the evidence for its claimed benefits is weak or absent.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Liquid Chlorophyll 50 mg Peppermint Flavor with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Chlorophyll2 drug types · 337 drugs

Methotrexate (Trexall, Others)

Theoretically, chlorophyll may reduce the clearance of methotrexate.
In one case report, a 54-year-old male developed delayed clearance of intravenous high-dose methotrexate with concomitant use of chlorophyll. When chlorophyll was stopped 2 days prior to methotrexate treatment, methotrexate clearance was unaffected.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of chlorophyll with photosensitizing drugs may have additive effects.
Chlorophyll has been reported to cause photosensitization. In two case reports, pseudoporphyria developed after oral intake of chlorophyll. Theoretically, concomitant use with other photosensitizing drugs may exacerbate this effect.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B

Copper2 drug types · 31 drugs

Penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen)

Theoretically, taking copper with penicillamine might decrease the absorption of penicillamine; separate dosing by at least 2 hours.
Copper chelates penicillamine, which decreases its absorption and may reduce its clinical effects.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Contraceptive Drugs

Theoretically, taking copper with contraceptive drugs might increase the levels and toxic effects of copper.
A meta-analysis of clinical studies suggests that chronic use of oral contraceptives increases serum copper levels by a mean of 57 mcg/dL. In most people, this resulted in levels above the normal reference range for copper.

Liquid Chlorophyll 50 mg Peppermint Flavor by VitaDrops: Common Questions

Does Liquid Chlorophyll 50 mg Peppermint Flavor by VitaDrops interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Liquid Chlorophyll 50 mg Peppermint Flavor has a known interaction with 368 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Liquid Chlorophyll 50 mg Peppermint Flavor contains 2 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 safe to take this while pregnant?
The safety data we hold is mixed. Copper is listed as likely safe and is actually needed in pregnancy, but you should stick to recommended amounts and avoid high-dose supplements unless your doctor advises it. Chlorophyll, on the other hand, doesn't have enough reliable safety information during pregnancy — it's best avoided unless your doctor says otherwise. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist to decide what's right for you.
What about breastfeeding?
Copper at recommended amounts is considered likely safe during breastfeeding. Chlorophyll's safety during breastfeeding isn't known, so it's best avoided unless your doctor advises otherwise. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're nursing.
Can this actually help with wound healing?
The evidence on file doesn't establish that chlorophyll helps wound healing — we don't have reliable data to rate it. If wound healing is your reason for considering this product, talk to your doctor about treatments we do have evidence for.
What's the main risk with this product?
The biggest risk is if you take methotrexate, penicillamine, birth control pills, or sun-sensitizing medications — this product interacts with all of those and could affect how they work or how much copper builds up in your body. Even if you don't take those, photosensitivity (sun sensitivity) is a known side effect, so protect your skin when you're outside.
Are there any fillers or additives?
The inactive ingredients are glycerin, purified water, and peppermint oil — all used to deliver and flavor the product. It's a liquid form, so no capsule or major fillers, but it does contain these supporting ingredients.
