HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tangerine by Revive

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

Revive Tangerine is a liquid supplement with one active ingredient: tangerine fruit. The supplement contains no other active ingredients and no listed inactive fillers or binders.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Tangerine product and its label doesn't state a use — see Tangerine's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for tangerine as a supplement for cancer is insufficient — we don't have reliable data to say whether it works. If you're considering this product for that purpose, talk with your doctor about what evidence does exist and whether it fits your plan.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tangerine

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.

Eating tangerine fruit itself is generally well tolerated and safe. However, concentrated extracts and essential oils derived from tangerine should be used with caution and under medical advice, because their safety hasn't been as thoroughly studied as the whole fruit.

In rare cases, tangerine essential oil applied to skin has caused contact dermatitis — a localized allergic rash. Overall, very few side effects have been reported with medicinal tangerine use, though a thorough safety evaluation has not been completed.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Tangerine

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 — Tangerine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • For scale: 644 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 this product, check with your pharmacist if you take midazolam (Versed) or any medication cleared by the liver enzyme CYP3A4 — that includes sedatives, antihistamines, cholesterol drugs, and immunosuppressants. The documented interaction with midazolam is Minor, but the potential effect on the broader enzyme system warrants confirmation with your exact drugs.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.

If you eat tangerine as food, you're in familiar territory. As a concentrated liquid supplement, especially one that may affect how your liver processes medications, it's worth a quick check with your pharmacist — particularly if you take sedatives or any drug metabolized by the liver.

The evidence for cancer treatment isn't established. Talk to us before you add it to your routine.

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

In vitro, tangeretin, a constituent of tangerine, induces a 52% increase in the metabolism of midazolam by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). This suggests that tangeretin may stimulate CYP3A4 activity. However, in humans, drinking tangerine juice 200 mL slightly delayed the absorption, but did not affect the metabolism, of midazolam, a CYP3A4 substrate. Theoretically, tangerine juice might increase CYP3A4 activity and decrease levels of drugs metabolized by this enzyme. However, this effect is unlikely.
Some drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 include amitriptyline (Elavil), amiodarone (Cordarone), citalopram (Celexa), felodipine (Plendil), lansoprazole (Prevacid), ondansetron (Zofran), prednisone (Deltasone, Orasone), sertraline (Zoloft), sibutramine (Meridia), and many others.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Midazolam (Versed)

In vitro, tangeretin, a constituent of tangerine, appears to increase the metabolism of midazolam in human liver microsomes by up to 52%. However, in humans, drinking tangerine juice 200 mL slightly delayed the absorption, but did not affect the metabolism, of midazolam. Theoretically, tangerine juice might increase the metabolism and reduce the effects of midazolam. However, this effect is unlikely.

Tangerine by Revive: Common Questions

Does Tangerine by Revive interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tangerine has a known interaction with 643 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tangerine 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.
Is tangerine safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for tangerine during pregnancy or lactation. Eating the fruit as food is one thing, but we can't say whether this supplement is safe during those times. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice — they can weigh what we know about tangerine against your individual situation.
What's the difference between eating a tangerine and taking this supplement?
The supplement is a concentrated liquid form, which means you're getting a more potent dose than you'd get from eating the fruit. The safety data is much stronger for whole tangerine as food — concentrated extracts and oils should be used cautiously and under medical guidance, because they haven't been studied as thoroughly.
Can tangerine help prevent cancer?
The evidence isn't established yet. We rate it as insufficient reliable evidence to say whether it works for cancer. If you're interested in cancer prevention or treatment support, talk with your oncologist or doctor about what's actually proven to help.
Will this slow down or speed up my medications?
Tangerine contains a compound (tangeretin) that lab studies suggested might speed up how your liver breaks down certain drugs. However, in real people drinking tangerine juice, that effect either didn't happen or was too small to matter — at least for midazolam. Since it affects a broad liver enzyme (CYP3A4) that processes 633 different medications, it's best to check your exact drugs with the tool on this page or with your pharmacist.
What side effects might I get from this supplement?
Very few side effects have been reported with medicinal tangerine use, though a complete safety study hasn't been done. The main concern is if you apply tangerine essential oil to your skin — it's been linked to contact dermatitis, a localized rash. As an oral liquid, serious side effects are unlikely, but your pharmacist can tell you what to watch for.
