HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Olive Leaf Extract 150 mg by Vitamin World

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: olive leaf extract at 150 mg per capsule. The extract comes in a vegetable cellulose and gelatin capsule with minor inactive ingredients.

Olive leaf extract is made from the leaves of the olive plant, separate from the familiar olive fruit and oil you eat in food. The supplement form concentrates compounds from those leaves into a much smaller dose than you'd get from eating olives or using olive oil.

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 Olive product and its label doesn't state a use — see Olive'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 olive leaf extract isn't established in the data we hold. The product is marketed for several uses — osteoporosis, indigestion, exercise-related respiratory infections, shingles, flu, and osteoarthritis — but we have insufficient reliable evidence to rate how well it works for any of them.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work; it means the research backing isn't strong enough yet to draw firm conclusions.

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.

Olive as a food and oil is very safe, but concentrated supplements like this one are less studied. In trials, olive leaf extract has generally been well tolerated.

The most common side effects reported were headache and stomach discomfort. One person in a trial reported skin problems and acne.

Also note that olive tree pollen can trigger seasonal respiratory allergies in sensitive people. Safety data for pregnancy and lactation isn't on file for this ingredient.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented in our data for this ingredient. Even so, because concentrated olive leaf extract is less studied than the food forms, new interactions may emerge over time — talk with your pharmacist or doctor before adding it to your routine medications.

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.

If you're interested in olive leaf extract and your doctor or pharmacist has given you the green light, this product appears generally well tolerated at typical doses. Because concentrated supplements are less well studied than olive oil and olives as food, it's worth running your full medication list and health history past your own healthcare provider before you start.

Olive Leaf Extract 150 mg by Vitamin World: Common Questions

Does Olive Leaf Extract 150 mg by Vitamin World interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Olive Leaf Extract 150 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Olive Leaf Extract 150 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.
What is olive leaf extract?
It's a concentrated extract made from the leaves of the olive plant. It's different from the olive fruit and olive oil you eat as food — the leaves are processed to create a supplement.
Is this safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Safety data for pregnancy and lactation isn't on file for this ingredient. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to decide whether it's right for you in those situations.
What are the most common side effects?
In trials, olive leaf extract was generally well tolerated. The most often reported side effects were headache and stomach discomfort. One person reported skin problems, and olive tree pollen may trigger allergies in sensitive people.
Does olive leaf extract actually work for the conditions it's sold for?
The evidence isn't established in the data we hold. We have insufficient reliable evidence to rate how well it works for osteoporosis, indigestion, exercise-related respiratory infections, shingles, flu, or osteoarthritis.
Is it safe because olive oil is safe?
Olive oil and olives as food are very safe, but concentrated supplements like this one are less well studied. That's why the safety data we have is more limited and why you should talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
