HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Serrapeptase by NutraMedix

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 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product has two active ingredients: inulin and Peptizyme SP. Inulin is a plant fiber that's studied for its effects on blood sugar control, weight, digestion, and liver health.

Peptizyme SP is a protease (a type of enzyme), though we don't have detailed information on file about it. The capsule itself is made from vegetable material, with magnesium stearate 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: Supports joint health, intestinal health, and digestion.
  • We looked for evidence on: Constipation, Joint pain, Inflammatory conditions, Digestive support.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Inulin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Constipation (Natural Medicines).

Inulin is possibly effective for obesity, constipation, and diabetes. There isn't enough reliable evidence yet to say whether it helps with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease or iron deficiency anemia.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for Peptizyme SP.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Inulin

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.

Inulin is generally well tolerated in food amounts, but concentrated supplements warrant caution — safety at higher doses hasn't been well studied. The most common side effects are bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, and stomach cramps, especially above 30 grams.

Anaphylaxis (a severe allergic reaction) is rare but has occurred after consuming foods high in inulin. For pregnancy and breastfeeding, the data shows inulin is likely safe.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Inulin

Meds to double-check

Minor interactions only
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Minor only

Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Inulin.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 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.

If you take antidiabetes drugs, check them here before starting — inulin may lower blood sugar further. We have no documented interactions for Peptizyme SP because we couldn't check it.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Serrapeptase may be worth considering if you're looking at inulin for blood sugar, weight, or constipation — but talk to your pharmacist first, especially if you take diabetes medication. Start low to avoid gas and bloating.

We couldn't check one of the two active ingredients, so run your exact medications through the tool.
