HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Maca Lepidamax 525 mg by NutraBio

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.

This product contains one active ingredient: gelatinized maca root powder at 525 mg per capsule. Maca is a root vegetable native to Peru that's been used as a food for centuries.

The gelatinization process makes it easier to digest and absorb. The capsule itself is made from vegetable material.

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

This is a single-ingredient Maca product and its label doesn't state a use — see Maca's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for maca is currently insufficient to rate its effectiveness for the conditions we have data on—including amenorrhea (absent periods), anemia of chronic disease, antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, and osteoporosis. That means we don't yet have enough reliable studies to say whether it works for these uses or how well it compares to other options.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Maca

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.

Maca is generally well tolerated as a food, but long-term safety as a supplement hasn't been studied extensively. Fresh, uncooked maca may cause stomach pain—this product is gelatinized, which may reduce that risk, but it's worth noting.

The safety data advises against using maca in supplement amounts during pregnancy, and there isn't enough reliable information on safety while breastfeeding, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant or nursing.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Maca Lepidamax is a single-ingredient supplement with no documented drug interactions. The evidence for what it does isn't established yet in the data we hold.

It's generally well tolerated as a food but hasn't been studied long term as a supplement—and it's not recommended in pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for your individual situation.

Maca Lepidamax 525 mg by NutraBio: Common Questions

Does Maca Lepidamax 525 mg by NutraBio interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Maca Lepidamax 525 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Maca Lepidamax 525 mg 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.
Can I take maca during pregnancy?
The safety data advises against using maca in supplement amounts during pregnancy. If you're pregnant and considering it, talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Is it safe to breastfeed while taking this?
There isn't enough reliable information on safety while breastfeeding. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're nursing.
Can fresh maca cause stomach problems?
Yes—consumption of fresh, uncooked maca may cause stomach pain. This product is gelatinized, a process meant to make it easier to digest, but it's worth knowing the risk exists.
Does maca actually work for sexual dysfunction?
The evidence for maca and antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction is insufficient to rate, meaning we don't yet have enough reliable studies to say whether it works or how well.
