HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Multi Collagen Protein 2250 mg by Nutrivein

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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 0 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • “Multi Collagen Protein Complex” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2,250 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Nutrivein's formula contains 6 ingredients. The active components are three sources of collagen — eggshell membrane collagen, hydrolyzed bovine (beef) collagen peptides, and hydrolyzed fish collagen peptides — along with amla berry extract (also called Indian gooseberry), ashwagandha root and leaf extract, and chicken bone broth collagen concentrate.

Collagen provides amino acids your body uses to support skin, joints, and connective tissue. Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb traditionally used for stress and sleep.

Amla berry is rich in vitamin C and polyphenols. The product also contains hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, an inactive ingredient used as a capsule binder.

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Dyslipidemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Indian Gooseberry) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Indian Gooseberry) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Anxiety — rated "Possibly Effective" (Ashwagandha) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Ashwagandha) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Insomnia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Ashwagandha) (Natural Medicines).

For the collagen peptides (bovine and fish), the evidence shows they're possibly effective for aging skin and dry skin, though not for muscle strength. For ashwagandha, research supports possible effectiveness for insomnia, anxiety, stress, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).

Amla berry extract shows possibly effective evidence for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and possibly effective for high cholesterol, though the evidence for high cholesterol levels is insufficient. The evidence isn't established in our data for ashwagandha's use in bipolar disorder, or for either collagen source or amla berry in acne, athletic performance, or hair loss.

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.

Eggshell membrane collagen is generally well tolerated in short-term studies but must be avoided if you have an egg allergy. Collagen peptides (bovine and fish) are generally well tolerated as a protein source; rare side effects may include nausea, stomach upset, diarrhea, or gas.

Ashwagandha is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, though drowsiness, gastrointestinal upset, nausea, and vomiting are possible but uncommon. Case reports have raised rare concerns about liver damage and unusual bleeding complications, though these are not common.

Amla berry extract is generally well tolerated as a food but has less safety data at supplement doses; rare side effects in trials included stomach discomfort, fatigue, and musculoskeletal pain. For pregnancy, eggshell membrane collagen should be avoided due to insufficient safety data; amla berry extract should also be avoided in pregnancy.

Bovine and fish collagen peptides are not well studied in pregnancy — check with your doctor. Ashwagandha is likely unsafe in pregnancy because it's traditionally thought to risk miscarriage.

For breastfeeding, safety data is limited for all ingredients — eggshell membrane and amla berry should be avoided, while bovine and fish collagen peptides warrant caution. Ashwagandha is also best avoided while breastfeeding.

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 — Indian Gooseberry, Ashwagandha.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 1,431 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 your medications against these drug types: CNS depressants (sedatives, sleeping pills, anxiety medications) and benzodiazepines because of ashwagandha's sedative effects; antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medications) because ashwagandha may lower blood pressure further; antidiabetes drugs and other blood-sugar-lowering medications because both ashwagandha and amla berry may increase low blood sugar risk; blood thinners (anticoagulants) and antiplatelet drugs like aspirin and clopidogrel because amla berry may raise bleeding risk; immunosuppressants because ashwagandha may interfere with their effects; and thyroid hormone because ashwagandha may increase its effects. If you take any of these, run them through the checker below.

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) root and leaf extract10 drug types · 1,372 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
There is preliminary clinical evidence suggesting that ashwagandha might lower blood glucose levels. Theoretically, ashwagandha might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research suggests that ashwagandha might lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Theoretically, ashwagandha might have additive effects when used with antihypertensive drugs and increase the risk of hypotension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Benzodiazepines

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha might increase the sedative effects of benzodiazepines.
There is preliminary evidence that ashwagandha might have an additive effect with diazepam (Valium) and clonazepam (Klonopin). This may also occur with other benzodiazepines.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha might increase the sedative effects of CNS depressants.
Ashwagandha seems to have sedative effects. Theoretically, this may potentiate the effects of barbiturates, other sedatives, and anxiolytics.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha with hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver damage.
Ashwagandha has been linked to cases of acute hepatitis, liver failure, hepatic encephalopathy, autoimmune hepatitis, the need for liver transplantation, and death due to liver failure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha might decrease the effects of immunosuppressants.
Ashwagandha has demonstrated immunostimulant effects in humans. Animal research has shown that ashwagandha can attenuate the immunosuppression caused by cyclophosphamide.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Ashwagandha might increase the effects and adverse effects of thyroid hormone.
Concomitant use of ashwagandha with thyroid hormones may cause additive therapeutic and adverse effects. Preliminary clinical research and animal studies suggest that ashwagandha boosts thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion. In one clinical study, ashwagandha increased triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) levels by 41.5% and 19.6%, respectively, and reduced serum TSH levels by 17.4% from baseline in adults with subclinical hypothyroidism.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, ashwagandha might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ashwagandha extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, ashwagandha might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ashwagandha extract induces CYP3A4 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Serotonergic Drugs

Some animal studies have reported that ashwagandha can enhance serotonergic transmission by altering certain serotonin (5-HT) receptors. However, there is no evidence to suggest that ashwagandha increases the risk of serotonin-related effects, and there have been no published case reports of serotonin syndrome when combined with other serotonergic drugs. Nevertheless, due to the lack of extensive studies on the matter and the fact that ashwagandha appears to affect serotonergic pathways, it would be prudent to exercise caution when combining it with drugs that affect serotonin.

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg, as a single dose or for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg or ecosprin 75 mg alone. Until more is known, use caution when taking Indian gooseberry in combination with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking Indian gooseberry with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry fruit or fruit extract alone or in conjunction with antidiabetes medications can lower blood glucose levels. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Aspirin

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with aspirin; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with ecosprin 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus ecosprin 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with ecosprin 75 mg alone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Clopidogrel (Plavix)

Theoretically, Indian gooseberry may increase the risk of bleeding if used with clopidogrel; however, research is conflicting.
Clinical research shows that taking Indian gooseberry 500 mg as a single dose or twice daily for 10 days reduces platelet aggregation by about 24% to 36%, increases bleeding time by about 3.8-5.9 seconds, and increases clotting time by about 9.8-12.7 seconds when compared to baseline. However, taking a single dose of Indian gooseberry 500 mg along with clopidogrel 75 mg, or taking a combination of Indian gooseberry 500 mg twice daily plus clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for 10 days, does not significantly reduce platelet aggregation or increase bleeding time or clotting time when compared with clopidogrel 75 mg alone.

Multi Collagen Protein 2250 mg by Nutrivein: Common Questions

Does Multi Collagen Protein 2250 mg by Nutrivein interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Multi Collagen Protein 2250 mg has a known interaction with 1,430 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Multi Collagen Protein 2250 mg contains 6 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 this product safe if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Eggshell membrane collagen and amla berry extract should be avoided in pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough safety data. Ashwagandha is likely unsafe in pregnancy because it's traditionally thought to risk miscarriage and should also be avoided while breastfeeding. The collagen peptides haven't been well studied in pregnancy either — talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using any collagen supplement during pregnancy or lactation.
What does ashwagandha in this product do?
Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb that research shows may help with insomnia, anxiety, stress, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). It's traditionally used to support calm and sleep, though quality and long-term safety data are still limited.
Can collagen peptides really improve my skin?
The evidence shows collagen peptides are possibly effective for aging skin and dry skin. The bovine and fish collagen in this product both carry the same rating for these uses, so either source may help, though individual results vary.
What are the side effects of this product?
Most ingredients are well tolerated. Collagen peptides rarely cause nausea, stomach upset, diarrhea, or gas. Ashwagandha may cause drowsiness, and gastrointestinal upset, nausea, or vomiting are possible but uncommon. Amla berry extract in trials rarely caused stomach discomfort, fatigue, or musculoskeletal pain. Always start with the recommended dose to see how you respond.
Do I need to avoid this product if I have an egg allergy?
Yes. This product contains eggshell membrane collagen, so you should avoid it if you're allergic to eggs.
Will this interact with my blood pressure medication?
Possibly. Ashwagandha in this product may theoretically add to the blood-pressure-lowering effect of antihypertensive drugs. Use the medication checker below to confirm whether your specific medication is at risk, and talk to your pharmacist before starting.
