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 4 of its 4 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 4 active ingredients. Carnipure is a form of L-carnitine, an amino acid your body uses to turn fat into energy and support heart and muscle function.

CherryPure Sour Cherry is a concentrated extract from tart cherries, traditionally used for recovery and inflammation. The other two active ingredients—NovaSol and Oceanix—aren't detailed in the data we hold.

The rest is inactive ingredients (fillers, binders, and colorings) that make up the capsule.

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: faster recovery and exercise performance.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle damage, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Post-workout recovery, Muscle repair, Exercise-induced inflammation.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Sour Cherry is rated "Possibly Effective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Sour Cherry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Exercise-induced muscle soreness.
  • Also on file: L-carnitine is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Exercise-induced muscle damage.

L-carnitine is Effective for treating L-carnitine deficiency, and Possibly Effective for high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), congestive heart failure, and angina. Sour cherry extract is Possibly Effective for athletic performance, but the evidence for exercise-induced muscle soreness, cognitive function, ADHD, and exercise-related respiratory infections is not yet established in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient L-carnitine Sour Cherry

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 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

L-carnitine is generally well tolerated at typical doses, but high doses can cause stomach upset, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, nausea, and a fishy body odor. Rarely, seizures have been reported.

Sour cherry is generally well tolerated as a food, though concentrated supplements are less studied; some people report abdominal pain, loose stools, or gastrointestinal upset. We don't have pregnancy safety data on file for L-carnitine, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant or trying to become pregnant.

Sour cherry as a food is likely safe during pregnancy and lactation, but concentrated supplement data is limited. Safety while breastfeeding with L-carnitine is not well studied, so caution is advised.

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?
  • 1 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — L-carnitine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 19 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.

Check before using if you take warfarin (Coumadin), acenocoumarol (Sintrom), or any other blood thinner—L-carnitine may boost their blood-thinning effect. Also double-check if you're on thyroid hormone replacement, as L-carnitine may reduce its effectiveness.

Both are Moderate severity interactions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may help with athletic recovery and performance if you're an athlete, but it's not a proven cure-all. If you take a blood thinner, thyroid medication, or any other prescription drug, check your exact medications with our tool first—the interactions here are real and worth verifying.

Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any stomach sensitivity.

Carnipure3 drug types · 19 drugs

Acenocoumarol (Sintrom)

Theoretically, L-carnitine might increase the anticoagulant effects of acenocoumarol.
L-carnitine might enhance the anticoagulant effects of acenocoumarol, an oral anticoagulant similar to warfarin, but shorter-acting. There are at least two case reports of INR elevation with concomitant use. In one case, a 33-year-old male with a previously stable INR had an elevated INR of 4.65 after L-carnitine was started and continued for 10 weeks. INR normalized after discontinuation of the L-carnitine-containing product.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Theoretically, L-carnitine might decrease the effectiveness of thyroid hormone replacement.
L-carnitine appears to act as a peripheral thyroid hormone antagonist by inhibiting entry of thyroid hormone into the nucleus of cells. Taking L-carnitine also seems to diminish some of the symptoms of hyperthyroidism.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, L-carnitine might increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.
L-carnitine might increase the anticoagulant effects of acenocoumarol, a shorter-acting oral anticoagulant similar to warfarin. There is not enough information to know whether this interaction occurs with L-carnitine and warfarin.

Supercharged Recovery Orange Citrus by Performix: Common Questions

Does Supercharged Recovery Orange Citrus by Performix interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Supercharged Recovery Orange Citrus has a known interaction with 19 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Supercharged Recovery Orange Citrus contains 4 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.
Can I take this if I'm on warfarin or another blood thinner?
Not without checking with your pharmacist first. L-carnitine in this product may strengthen the blood-thinning effect of warfarin and similar drugs, which could raise your bleeding risk. Your pharmacist can review your specific medication and decide if it's safe for you.
Will this affect my thyroid medication?
Possibly. L-carnitine may interfere with how your body absorbs or uses thyroid hormone, making the medication less effective. If you take thyroid replacement, run this product by your pharmacist or doctor first.
What side effects might I notice?
The most common are stomach-related: abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, or heartburn. Some people also report a fishy body odor. These are more likely at higher doses. Sour cherry extract may cause abdominal pain or loose stools in some users.
Is this safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
We don't have enough safety data on L-carnitine for pregnancy, so you'll need to talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice. Sour cherry as a food is likely safe during pregnancy and lactation, but concentrated supplement data is limited, so use caution.
Does this actually reduce muscle soreness after workouts?
Sour cherry extract is Possibly Effective for athletic performance, but we don't have enough reliable evidence to confirm it works for exercise-induced muscle soreness specifically. It may help, but the science isn't settled yet.
