HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tart Cherry Tablets 250 mg by Nootropics Depot
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
This product contains one active ingredient: sour cherry extract at 250 mg per tablet. Sour cherry (Cerasus vulgaris) is a food-derived plant extract.
The tablets also contain inactive ingredients — silicon dioxide, microcrystalline cellulose, stearic acid, and croscarmellose sodium — which are binders, fillers, and flow agents that help hold the tablet together.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence for sour cherry is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for athletic performance.
For attention, focus, muscle soreness after exercise, respiratory infections after exercise, and fibromyalgia, the evidence isn't established — we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works for those uses. If you're considering it for one of those purposes, that's a conversation worth having with your doctor or pharmacist.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Tart cherry as a whole fruit is generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplements like this one are less studied for safety. The most common side effects reported are abdominal pain, stomach upset, loose stools, and fatigue.
In one clinical trial, about 29% of children taking tart cherry juice concentrate reported abdominal pain. Rare cases of skin reactions possibly related to cherry allergy have been reported.
Because safety data for supplement doses is limited, use caution — especially if you have a sensitive stomach.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the sour cherry extract in this product.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
If you're interested in sour cherry for athletic performance, this product may be worth a try, though the evidence is modest. Start with a low dose to see how your stomach tolerates it.
Pregnant and breastfeeding people can consider it — it's rated likely safe — but talk with your doctor first. Anyone with a history of cherry allergy should avoid it.
