HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Super Citrimax by BodyDynamix

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
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.
  • “Garcinia cambogia Fruit Extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Super Citrimax contains one active ingredient: hydroxycitric acid from garcinia cambogia fruit extract. This is a compound derived from the tropical garcinia fruit that's been studied for potential effects on weight, blood sugar, and cholesterol.

The product also includes a number of inactive ingredients—fillers and binders like microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, and magnesium stearate—that help form and stabilize the supplement.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Garcinia's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: weight loss and appetite control support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Obesity, Weight management, Appetite suppression, Metabolic support.
  • The closest evidence on file: Garcinia is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Obesity (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for hydroxycitric acid from garcinia cambogia is not established in our data. We have no reliable evidence to rate its effectiveness for obesity, athletic performance, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), or fatty liver disease (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease).

That doesn't mean it doesn't work—it means large, well-designed human studies supporting these uses aren't yet in our records.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Garcinia

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.

Hydroxycitric acid and garcinia are generally well tolerated in short-term use, but the safety data comes with important caveats. The most common side effects are diarrhea, gastrointestinal discomfort, headache, and nausea.

Rare but serious events have been reported: hepatotoxicity (liver damage), liver failure, mania (especially concerning if you have bipolar disorder), pancreatitis, and one case of acute heart muscle inflammation that progressed to heart failure. There isn't enough safety data to recommend this product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Garcinia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 705 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 Super Citrimax, check with your pharmacist if you take any serotonergic drugs like antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs), blood thinners or antiplatelet medications, diabetes drugs, or medications that can affect your liver. Altogether, these interactions span 705 individual medications.

No interactions are documented for any other ingredient in this product.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Super Citrimax is a single-ingredient garcinia supplement. If you take serotonergic drugs (like SSRIs), blood thinners, diabetes medications, or drugs that stress your liver, you'll need to check with your pharmacist first—the interactions are real and potentially serious.

Even in people without drug interactions, rare cases of liver and heart problems have been reported. It's a conversation starter with your pharmacist, not a grab-and-go.

Garcinia cambogia Fruit Extract4 drug types · 704 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, hydroxycitric acid (HCA), the main active ingredient in garcinia, might increase the risk of bleeding when used with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
HCA inhibits platelet aggregation in vitro. The inhibitory effect seems to be greater in platelets extracted from diabetic subjects than non-diabetic subjects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, hydroxycitric acid (HCA), the main active ingredient in garcinia, might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
HCA reduces fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels in animal models, theoretically by delaying glucose absorption. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use with other potentially hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of developing liver damage.
There have been reports of acute hepatitis with elevated liver enzymes associated with garcinia, when taken alone or in combination with other ingredients. Case reports collected from the Drug Induced Liver Injury Network suggest this risk may be greater in people who carry the HLA B*35:01 allele.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Serotonergic Drugs

Theoretically, combining garcinia with other serotonergic drugs might increase the risk of serotonergic side effects, including serotonin syndrome.
In one report, a patient experienced serotonin syndrome after taking garcinia extract (60% hydroxycitric acid) 1000 mg daily in combination with escitalopram 20 mg, which had been taken for a year. The patient was switched to sertraline 50 mg daily and again experienced serotonin syndrome.

Super Citrimax by BodyDynamix: Common Questions

Does Super Citrimax by BodyDynamix interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Super Citrimax has a known interaction with 704 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Super Citrimax 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.
Can I take this if I'm on an antidepressant?
Not without checking first. There's a documented case of serotonin syndrome in someone taking garcinia with the SSRI escitalopram. Serotonin syndrome is serious—it involves agitation, confusion, rapid heart rate, and high body temperature. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before adding this to your antidepressant.
What's hydroxycitric acid, and why is it in here?
Hydroxycitric acid (HCA) is the active compound extracted from garcinia cambogia fruit. It's included because researchers theorize it may affect blood sugar and weight, though we don't have reliable evidence yet that it works in humans.
What are the most common side effects?
Diarrhea, gastrointestinal discomfort, headache, and nausea are the most commonly reported side effects. Most people tolerate it well in the short term, but rare cases of liver damage and heart problems have been reported.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety data either way. The facts advise against use in pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.
Can I take this if I'm on a blood thinner like warfarin?
Not without checking with your pharmacist first. Hydroxycitric acid may thin your blood further and raise your bleeding risk when combined with anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs.
Does it actually help with weight loss?
We don't have reliable evidence to say it works for obesity in humans. The ingredient has been studied for that purpose, but the evidence isn't strong enough for us to rate it as effective.
