HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Olive Leaf Extract 500 mg by Puritan's Pride
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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: olive leaf extract at 500 mg per capsule. The extract comes from the leaves of the olive plant and has been studied for a handful of conditions, though the evidence is still preliminary.
The capsule also contains inactive ingredients—cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate—which are standard binders and flow agents.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for olive leaf extract isn't established yet in the data we hold. It's been looked at for osteoporosis, indigestion (dyspepsia), exercise-related respiratory infections, shingles, flu, and osteoarthritis, but so far there's insufficient reliable evidence to rate how well it works for any of these uses.
That doesn't mean it's ineffective—just that the research isn't there yet to say either way.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Olive leaf extract seems to be well tolerated overall. In typical use, the most common side effects reported in trials were headache and stomach discomfort.
One person in a trial reported skin problems and acne, though that's rare. Keep in mind that while olives and olive oil as food are very safe, concentrated supplements like this one are less studied, so the long-term safety picture isn't as clear.
If you're allergic to olive tree pollen or have seasonal respiratory allergies tied to it, this supplement could potentially trigger a reaction. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you have concerns.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check. Even so, it's worth confirming with your own doctor or pharmacist that it won't conflict with your specific medications before you take it.
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.
This product may interest you if you're looking to explore olive leaf extract for one of the conditions it's been studied for—though the evidence isn't solid yet. Since concentrated olive supplements are less researched than the food forms, it's smart to check with your doctor or pharmacist before you start, especially if you have any health conditions or take medications.
They can help you decide whether it's right for you.
