HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Multi Collagen Peptides Chocolate Flavor by Codeage

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 3 of its 8 active ingredients.
  • “Multi-Collagen Complex” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (10,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This powder contains 7 active ingredients centered on collagen peptides from multiple sources. You get hydrolyzed bovine collagen peptides and hydrolyzed fish collagen peptides—both broken-down forms that your body can absorb more easily—plus eggshell membrane collagen.

The blend also includes beef bone broth and chicken bone broth for additional collagen and minerals, medium chain triglyceride oil (a type of fat), and sodium. The chocolate flavor comes from cocoa powder and natural flavors, with stevia leaf extract for sweetness and a small amount of sodium chloride (table salt) as an inactive ingredient.

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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Skin, hair, nail and joint support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Aging skin, Androgenic alopecia, Brittle nails, Exercise-induced muscle damage, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Joint pain — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Collagen Peptides is rated "Possibly Effective" for Aging skin (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Eggshell Membrane is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoarthritis.
  • Also on file: Collagen Peptides is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Androgenic alopecia, Brittle nails, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Osteoarthritis, and more.

The collagen peptides in this product show possibly effective evidence for aging skin and dry skin. Muscle strength support from collagen peptides, however, appears possibly ineffective based on the data we hold.

There isn't enough reliable evidence to rate whether collagen helps with acne or athletic performance. The eggshell membrane collagen and bone broths don't have effectiveness ratings in our data, so we can't speak to what they contribute.

Sodium itself has uses in certain medical situations—it's likely effective for cystic fibrosis and possibly effective for amphotericin B kidney damage—but this product isn't marketed for those purposes.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sodium Black Psyllium Collagen Peptides Eggshell Membrane

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 3 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

The collagen peptides (bovine and fish) are generally well tolerated as a dietary protein; side effects like nausea, indigestion, diarrhea, and gas are rare when they occur. Eggshell membrane collagen is generally well tolerated in short-term studies but must be avoided if you have an egg allergy.

Sodium is essential in small amounts, but too much is linked to high blood pressure and heart strain. The data shows that normal dietary sodium is fine, but avoid sodium supplements or very high intake without medical guidance.

In rare cases, excess sodium can worsen cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, and kidney disease.

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?
  • 2 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Black Psyllium, Sodium.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: heart-rhythm medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 2,036 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, double-check if you take lithium (the interaction is Moderate and affects how your body handles the drug), blood pressure medications, corticosteroids, didanosine, sodium phosphates, tolvaptan, or any other sodium-containing drug. High sodium from supplements can shift how these work or raise your blood sodium to unsafe levels.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Multi Collagen Peptides Chocolate 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.

Dietary Fiber7 drug types · 2,025 drugs

Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce carbamazepine absorption. A preliminary study using blond psyllium reported decreased carbamazepine bioavailability due to binding of the drug to psyllium, as well as reduction of available fluid in the gut for dissolution of the drug. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as lithium might reduce lithium absorption.
The fiber in black psyllium might reduce lithium absorption and plasma levels. Some case reports describe a reduction in plasma lithium levels with concomitant administration of blond psyllium. This was reversed when psyllium was stopped. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Metformin (Glucophage)

Theoretically, black psyllium might increase the therapeutic and adverse effects of metformin.
Animal research shows that concurrent consumption of blond psyllium with metformin slows and increases the absorption of metformin. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after metformin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Olanzapine (Zyprexa)

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as olanzapine might reduce olanzapine absorption.
The fiber in black psyllium might decrease the absorption of olanzapine. A single case report describes a reduction in the effectiveness of olanzapine when it was concomitantly administered with an unspecified type of psyllium 3 grams orally twice daily. This effect was reversed when psyllium was stopped.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as digoxin might reduce digoxin absorption and decrease digoxin levels.
Psyllium might bind digoxin in the gut. However, some clinical evidence suggests that psyllium does not impact digoxin absorption.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Ethinyl Estradiol

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as ethinyl estradiol might alter levels of estradiol.
Concurrent use of blond psyllium with ethinyl estradiol results in a slight increase in the extent of ethinyl estradiol absorption and a slower rate of absorption. This is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Oral Drugs

Theoretically, psyllium might increase, decrease, or have no effect on the absorption of oral drugs.
Psyllium seems to have variable effects on drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after oral medications. Animal research shows that blond psyllium delays and increases the absorption of metformin and ethinyl estradiol. Case reports and animal research suggest that blond psyllium might reduce absorption of lithium, digoxin, olanzapine, and carbamazepine. Finally, some pharmacokinetic studies show that psyllium does not affect the absorption of levothyroxine or warfarin. Although many of these studies evaluated blond psyllium, the fiber content in black psyllium may have similar effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B

Sodium7 drug types · 205 drugs

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, a high intake of dietary sodium might reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs.
High intake of dietary sodium can increase systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Also, high intake of sodium may necessitate increased use of antihypertensive medications to achieve blood pressure control in some patients, such as those with chronic kidney disease.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Corticosteroids

Concomitant use of mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids (corticosteroids) cause sodium retention. This effect is dose-related and depends on mineralocorticoid potency. It is most common with hydrocortisone, cortisone, and fludrocortisone, followed by prednisone and prednisolone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Didanosine (Videx)

Concomitant use of didanosine with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Didanosine formulations contain a significant amount of sodium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence C
Lithium

Altering dietary intake of sodium might alter the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
High sodium intake can reduce plasma concentrations of lithium by increasing lithium excretion. Reducing sodium intake can significantly increase plasma concentrations of lithium and cause lithium toxicity in patients being treated with lithium carbonate. Stabilizing sodium intake is shown to reduce the percentage of patients with lithium level fluctuations above 0.8 mEq/L. Patients taking lithium should avoid significant alterations in their dietary intake of sodium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Sodium Phosphates

Theoretically, concomitant use of sodium phosphate with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Use of high doses (> 45 mL in 24 hours) of sodium phosphate, such as those used for bowel cleansing before surgery, can lead to serious electrolyte disturbances, including hypernatremia. The risk of hypernatremia is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sodium-Containing Drugs

Concomitant use of sodium-containing drugs with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia and long-term sodium-related complications.
The Chronic Disease Risk Reduction (CDRR) intake level of 2.3 grams of sodium daily indicates the intake at which it is believed that chronic disease risk increases for the apparently healthy population. Some medications contain high quantities of sodium. When used in conjunction with sodium supplements or high-sodium diets, the CDRR may be exceeded. Additionally, concomitant use may increase the risk for hypernatremia; this risk is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tolvaptan (Samsca)

Theoretically, concomitant use of tolvaptan with sodium might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Tolvaptan is a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist that is used to increase sodium levels in patients with hyponatremia. Patients taking tolvaptan should use caution with the use of sodium salts such as sodium chloride.

Multi Collagen Peptides Chocolate Flavor by Codeage: Common Questions

Does Multi Collagen Peptides Chocolate Flavor by Codeage interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Multi Collagen Peptides Chocolate Flavor has a known interaction with 2,035 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Multi Collagen Peptides Chocolate Flavor contains 9 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
The collagen peptides themselves aren't well studied in pregnancy—check with your doctor before using. Eggshell membrane is best avoided in pregnancy because there isn't enough safety information. Sodium carries conflicting data (some ratings say likely safe, others say possibly unsafe), so this is a conversation to have with your OB or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Is it safe while breastfeeding?
The collagen peptides have little safety data during breastfeeding, so caution is advised. Eggshell membrane is best avoided because safety hasn't been studied. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you're nursing.
Does the chocolate flavor contain any allergens I should know about?
The cocoa powder in the chocolate flavor doesn't appear to be an allergen concern in our data. However, the product does contain eggshell membrane collagen, so if you have an egg allergy, you should avoid this product entirely.
Can collagen peptides really help with wrinkles or dry skin?
The research we hold shows collagen peptides are possibly effective for aging skin and dry skin. That means there's some evidence they may help, but results aren't guaranteed and more research is ongoing.
What's the difference between the collagen sources in this blend?
You're getting collagen from cattle (bovine), fish, and eggshell membrane. All three are hydrolyzed or broken down to be easier for your body to absorb. They're all generally well tolerated, though the eggshell membrane must be avoided if you have an egg allergy.
Will this product cause stomach upset?
The collagen peptides may cause nausea, indigestion, diarrhea, or gas, but these side effects are rare. Most people tolerate it well as a dietary protein.
