HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Super Placenta Beauty Queen #1 by Vigor Source

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 9 of its 9 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Super Placenta Beauty Queen #1 contains 9 ingredients, 6 of which we have interaction and safety data for. The product features grape seed extract, which contains proanthocyanidins thought to support circulation; deer antler velvet extract, traditionally used in Asian medicine; and coix (also called Job's tears), a grain used in traditional medicine.

You'll also find red wine extract, hoelen, marine protein, placenta extract, elastin powder, and ligustillide. The capsules use gelatin, glycerin, and purified water as inactive ingredients.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: skin and hair health nourishment for women.
  • We looked for evidence on: Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Wound healing, hair growth, skin elasticity, skin texture.
  • The closest evidence on file: Resveratrol is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Aging skin (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Grape is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Wound healing.
  • Also on file: Deer Velvet is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Wound healing, Aging.

The evidence for this product's ingredients is mixed and limited. Grape seed extract shows possibly effective evidence for chronic venous insufficiency (poor circulation in the legs), but the data for chemotherapy-induced nausea, hay fever, and obesity is possibly ineffective.

Deer antler velvet, coix, and the other ingredients in this product lack reliable evidence — we hold insufficient data to rate them for any condition. If you're considering this product for a specific health goal, talk with your pharmacist about what the science actually supports.

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 2 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.

Grape seed extract is generally well tolerated, though some people report abdominal pain, diarrhea, dry mouth, headache, joint pain, and nausea. Rarely, anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction) to grape skin has been reported.

Concentrated grape seed supplements should be avoided during pregnancy due to limited safety data; as a food, grapes are fine. There isn't enough information to recommend concentrated grape supplements while breastfeeding.

Deer antler velvet appears well tolerated in short-term studies, but long-term safety is not well studied and product quality varies. The safety data advises against deer antler during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

For coix, there isn't enough reliable data on the supplement form during breastfeeding, and it's traditionally been avoided in pregnancy — stick to ordinary food amounts and check with your clinician. We have no adverse effect data on file for red wine extract, hoelen, marine protein, placenta, elastin powder, or ligustillide.

Meds to double-check

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?
  • 4 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Resveratrol, Grape, Deer Velvet, Job's Tears.
  • 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: 1,002 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.

Double-check this product before starting if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (moderate risk of increased bleeding), diabetes medications (moderate risk of low blood sugar from coix), heart or asthma drugs metabolized by liver enzymes like diltiazem, theophylline, or dextromethorphan (moderate risk of increased drug levels or reduced effectiveness), or cyclosporine (moderate risk of reduced absorption). Minor caution with birth control pills or estrogen supplements due to deer antler velvet.

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.

This is a multi-ingredient beauty and wellness supplement with documented interactions, especially with blood thinners, diabetes drugs, heart medications, and several liver-metabolized drugs. If you take any prescription medications, check each one with the tool on this page before starting.

The evidence for what this product actually does is limited — grape seed extract has some support for circulation, but the other ingredients lack reliable data. Talk with your pharmacist about whether it fits your health goals and medications.

Grape seed extract9 drug types · 910 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, grape extracts may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape extracts might decrease platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Ingesting grape juice with cyclosporine can reduce cyclosporine absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy young adults shows that intake of purple grape juice 200 mL along with cyclosporine can decrease the absorption of cyclosporine by up to 30% when compared with water. Separate doses of grape juice and cyclosporine by at least 2 hours to avoid this interaction.

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

Theoretically, grape juice might reduce the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, grape seed extract may increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP2D6 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, grape seed extract might increase the levels of CYP2E1 substrates.
In vitro and animal research suggests that grape seed proanthocyanidin extract inhibits CYP2E1 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

It is unclear if grape seed extract inhibits or induces CYP3A4; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP3A4 enzymes. However, evidence from animal research shows that grape seed extract may induce CYP3A4 in the liver. So far, these interactions have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Midazolam (Versed)

Theoretically, long-term intake of grape seed extract might decrease the effects of midazolam.
Animal research shows that subchronic ingestions of grape seed extract can increase the elimination of intravenous midazolam by increasing hepatic CYP3A4 activity. Single doses of grape seed extract do not appear to affect midazolam elimination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenacetin

Grape juice might decrease phenacetin absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2).

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

It is unclear if grape juice or grape seed extract inhibits CYP2C9; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence shows that grape seed extract or grape juice might inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. However, a small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that drinking 8 ounces of grape juice once does not affect the clearance of flurbiprofen, a probe-drug for CYP2C9 metabolism. The effects of continued grape juice consumption are unclear.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Red Wine extract5 drug types · 822 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Resveratrol may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Resveratrol seems to have antiplatelet effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit CYP1A2 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit CYP2C19 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
In vitro research suggests that resveratrol inhibits CYP2E1 isoenzyme. Also, a pharmacokinetic study shows that taking resveratrol 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to taking a single dose of chlorzoxazone 250 mg increases the maximum concentration of chlorzoxazone by about 54%, the area under the curve of chlorzoxazone by about 72%, and the half-life of chlorzoxazone by about 35%. Chlorzoxazone is used as a probe drug for CYP2E1.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme. However, clinical research shows that taking resveratrol 3000 mg daily for 8 weeks does not necessitate dose adjustments to medications metabolized by CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Coix5 drug types · 128 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Preliminary evidence shows that constituents of Job's tears might have hypoglycemic effects. Theoretically, concomitant use with drugs that decrease blood glucose levels might increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), chlorpropamide (Diabinese), glipizide (Glucotrol), tolbutamide (Orinase), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Animal research suggests that Job's tears might enhance absorption of chlorzoxazone in the small intestine. Single dose and short-term oral administration of Job's tears bran ethanolic extract along with oral administration of a five-drug cocktail containing chlorzoxazone increases chlorzoxazone peak plasma concentration and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) without altering major cytochrome P450 activities in the liver. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Dextromethorphan (Robitussin Dm, Others)

Animal research suggests that Job's tears might enhance absorption of dextromethorphan in the small intestine. Single dose oral administration of Job's tears bran ethanolic extract along with oral administration of a five-drug cocktail containing dextromethorphan increases dextromethorphan area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) without altering major cytochrome P450 activities in the liver. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diltiazem (Cardizem, Others)

Animal research suggests that Job's tears might enhance absorption of diltiazem in the small intestine. Single dose oral administration of Job's tears bran ethanolic extract along with oral administration of a five-drug cocktail containing diltiazem increases diltiazem peak plasma concentration and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) without altering major cytochrome P450 activities in the liver. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Theophylline

Animal research suggests that Job's tears might enhance absorption of theophylline in the small intestine. Single dose and short-term oral administration of Job's tears bran ethanolic extract along with oral administration of a five-drug cocktail containing theophylline increases theophylline peak plasma concentration and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) without altering major cytochrome P450 activities in the liver. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Deer Antler Velvet extract2 drug types · 52 drugs

Contraceptive Drugs

Theoretically, deer velvet might interfere with the effectiveness of contraceptive drugs.
Laboratory research shows that deer velvet contains small quantities of estradiol and testosterone. While clinical research shows that taking deer velvet extract does not raise testosterone levels, estradiol levels were not measured.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Estrogens

Theoretically, deer velvet might increase the effects and side effects of estrogens.
Laboratory evidence shows that deer velvet contains small quantities of estradiol and testosterone. While clinical research shows that taking deer velvet extract does not raise testosterone levels, estradiol levels were not measured.

Super Placenta Beauty Queen #1 by Vigor Source: Common Questions

Does Super Placenta Beauty Queen #1 by Vigor Source interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Super Placenta Beauty Queen #1 has a known interaction with 1,001 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Super Placenta Beauty Queen #1 contains 9 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 safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The data advises against this product during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Concentrated grape seed supplements should be avoided in pregnancy; coix is traditionally avoided then too, and deer antler velvet lacks safety information for both pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor before taking it — they know your full health picture.
What side effects might I notice?
Grape seed extract most commonly causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, dry mouth, headache, joint pain, and nausea in some people. Rarely, allergic reactions are possible. Other ingredients in this product don't have adverse effect data on file, so we can't predict what they might cause.
Does this product actually work for beauty or anti-aging?
We don't have reliable evidence data for most of what this product claims. Grape seed extract shows possibly effective evidence for chronic venous insufficiency (poor leg circulation), but not for general beauty or anti-aging. Deer antler velvet, coix, and the other ingredients lack enough research to rate them.
Can I take this with my birth control pills?
Deer antler velvet in this product contains small amounts of estrogen-like compounds, and theory suggests it might interfere with birth control, though this hasn't been proven in humans. It's a minor concern, but mention this product to your prescriber or pharmacist when you pick up your pills to be sure.
What's actually in this capsule?
It has 9 ingredients: grape seed extract, red wine extract, deer antler velvet, hoelen, marine protein, coix (Job's tears), placenta extract, elastin powder, and ligustillide. The capsule itself is gelatin, glycerin, and water — no other fillers.
Is there anything I should know about the deer antler or placenta extracts?
Both are traditionally used ingredients, but the research is thin. Deer antler velvet appears well tolerated short-term, but long-term safety isn't well studied and product quality varies a lot. We have no documented side effects or interactions for placenta extract, but that's because we hold no data for it — not because it's proven safe.
