HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ultra Collagen Enhance by ResVitale

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 4 of its 16 active ingredients.
  • “Dermaval” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (500 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “BioCell Collagen” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Resveratrol Polyphenol Complex” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (400 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Ultra Collagen Enhance has 16 ingredients. The active ones include trans-resveratrol (a polyphenol from grapes and plants), hydrolyzed collagen type II, chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid, and several fruit and plant extracts: organic French red grape, USDA organic Muscadine grape, pomegranate (VitaBerry), asparagus concentrate, okra concentrate, coffee, acerola cherry, camu camu, quercetin from pagoda tree, acai, and mangosteen.

These are combined to support skin elasticity, hydration, and joint structure. The product also contains inactive ingredients: vegetarian capsule, rice bran, and silica.

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: skin elasticity, luminosity, texture and firmness.
  • We looked for evidence on: Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Burns, wrinkles, skin hydration, dermal collagen.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Collagen Peptides is rated "Possibly Effective" for Aging skin (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Resveratrol is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Aging skin.
  • Also on file: Grape is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema).

Evidence for what this product does is mixed and often limited. Hyaluronic acid is possibly effective for dry eye and venous leg ulcers, but evidence for aging skin is insufficient.

Resveratrol shows possibly effective ratings for obesity and hay fever, but possibly ineffective for heart disease and high cholesterol. Chondroitin sulfate is possibly effective for cataracts and osteoarthritis, though evidence for aging skin and bone health is insufficient.

Grapes are possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency but possibly ineffective for nausea, hay fever, and weight loss. Pomegranate is possibly effective for high blood pressure but possibly ineffective for cholesterol and blood sugar control.

Coffee is likely effective for mental alertness and possibly effective for Parkinson's disease, heart failure, and diabetes. Acerola is possibly effective for vitamin C deficiency.

Asparagus, acai, mangosteen, and quercetin lack established evidence for their claimed uses in this product.

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 12 of the 14 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 14 of 14.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 14 of 14.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Hyaluronic acid is generally well tolerated orally, though long-term supplement safety isn't fully known. Resveratrol is generally well tolerated at typical doses; high doses may cause diarrhea, gastrointestinal upset, and loose stools.

Chondroitin sulfate is generally well tolerated short-term but may cause stomach upset, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, or rarely liver damage. Grapes are generally well tolerated; whole fruit is safer than concentrated extracts.

Pomegranate fruit and juice are generally safe, but concentrated extracts are less studied; high doses may cause diarrhea and stomach upset. Coffee is well tolerated in moderate amounts but can cause jitteriness, anxiety, sleep problems, and rapid heartbeat, especially in high doses.

Asparagus may trigger allergic reactions in people sensitive to onions, garlic, or related plants. Acerola, mangosteen, and acai are generally well tolerated as food but lack long-term safety data in supplement form.

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 11 of the 14 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Ambrette, Pagoda Tree, Asparagus, Resveratrol, Pomegranate, among others.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; cancer treatments; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,278 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 with your pharmacist if you take ephedrine (Major risk with the coffee in this product), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin (Moderate risk from resveratrol, grapes, pomegranate, chondroitin, and mangosteen), liver-metabolized drugs including many statins and some antidepressants (Moderate risk from resveratrol and grapes affecting CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP1A2, and CYP2E1), blood pressure or ACE inhibitor medications (Moderate risk from pomegranate), lamotrigine (Moderate risk from coffee), clozapine (Moderate risk from coffee), cimetidine, disulfiram, dipyridamole, pentobarbital, or fluvoxamine (Moderate risk from coffee), lithium (Moderate risk from asparagus), or donepezil (Minor risk from mangosteen).

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a multi-ingredient collagen and antioxidant blend aimed at skin, joint, and vascular health. If you take blood thinners, any heart or blood pressure medications, lamotrigine, clozapine, or lithium — or if you use ephedrine — talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting.

The coffee content adds caffeine, so watch for jitteriness if you're sensitive. Most ingredients are food-derived and generally well tolerated, but the product's effectiveness for aging skin and other claims lacks strong evidence.

VitaGranate BioActive Pomegranate Punica granatum extract9 drug types · 922 drugs

Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with ACEIs might increase the risk of adverse effects.
Pomegranate juice is thought to have ACE inhibitor-like effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Consuming pomegranate juice can modestly lower blood pressure.

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

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro, pomegranate juice inhibits CYP2D6. However, the clinical significance of this potential interaction in humans is not known.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Rosuvastatin (Crestor)

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with rosuvastatin might increase the risk of adverse effects.
In one case, a patient taking rosuvastatin 5 mg every other day in combination with ezetimibe 10 mg daily developed rhabdomyolysis after drinking pomegranate juice 200 mL twice weekly for 3 weeks. This patient had a history of elevated creatine kinase levels while not receiving any statin treatment. This suggests a possible underlying myopathy and predisposition to rhabdomyolysis.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase warfarin levels and increase the risk of bleeding. Also, discontinuing regular consumption of pomegranate juice might decrease warfarin levels.
In one case report, a patient had a stable, therapeutic bleeding time, as measured by international normalized ratio (INR), while taking warfarin in combination with pomegranate juice 2-3 times per week. The patient became subtherapeutic within about 10 days after discontinuing pomegranate juice, which required a warfarin dose increase. In another case report, a patient with a stable INR for over one year presented with an INR of 14. The patient noted no changes to medications or diet but did report consuming around 3 liters of pomegranate juice over the previous week. The patient's INR stabilized upon moderation of pomegranate juice consumption. The mechanism of this potential interaction is unclear.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with carbamazepine might increase the risk of adverse effects, although research suggests this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Animal research shows that pomegranate juice may inhibit cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) metabolism of carbamazepine and increase levels of carbamazepine by 1.5 times without prolonging the elimination half-life. This suggests that pomegranate juice inhibits intestinal CYP3A4, but might not inhibit hepatic CYP3A4. However, some human research suggests that pomegranate does not significantly inhibit CYP3A4 drug metabolism in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
Some animal and in vitro research shows that pomegranate juice inhibits intestinal, but not hepatic, CYP2C9 isoenzyme activity. However, clinical research shows that neither pomegranate juice nor pomegranate extract have a significant effect on CYP2C9 activity in humans.

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

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4, but most research suggests this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Pomegranate contains several polyphenols that have individually been shown to inhibit CYP3A4. However, there is contradictory evidence about the effect of whole pomegranate juice on CYP3A4 activity. In vitro, pomegranate juice significantly inhibits the CYP3A4 enzyme, with comparable inhibition to grapefruit juice. In an animal model, pomegranate juice inhibits CYP3A4 metabolism of carbamazepine and increases levels of carbamazepine by 1.5 times; however, in human volunteers, drinking a single glass of pomegranate juice 240 mL or taking 200 mL daily for 2 weeks does not significantly affect levels of the CYP3A4 substrate midazolam after oral or intravenous administration. Another study in healthy volunteers shows that consuming pomegranate juice 300 mL three times daily for three days also does not significantly affect levels of simvastatin, a CYP3A4 substrate This suggests that pomegranate is unlikely to significantly affect levels of CYP3A4 substrates in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Tolbutamide (Orinase)

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of tolbutamide, although research suggests this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Animal research shows that pomegranate juice inhibits the cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) metabolism of tolbutamide. Pomegranate juice increased tolbutamide levels by 1.2 times without prolonging the elimination half-life. This suggests that pomegranate juice inhibits intestinal CYP2C9, but might not inhibit hepatic CYP2C9. Despite this evidence, clinical research shows that neither pomegranate juice nor pomegranate extract have a significant effect on CYP2C9 activity in humans. This interaction does not appear to be clinically significant in humans.

Resveratrol Polyphenol Complex5 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.

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, asparagus root might increase diuresis and electrolyte loss when used with diuretic drugs.
Animal studies show that asparagus root extracts have diuretic effects. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, asparagus root might cause diuresis, reducing lithium clearance.
Animal studies show that asparagus root extracts have diuretic effects. Theoretically, this might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Green Garden Asparagus Asparagus officinalis Concentrate full monograph & interactions

Chondroitin Sulfate1 drug type · 2 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Taking chondroitin in combination with glucosamine might increase the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. However, the effect of chondroitin alone is unclear.
There have been multiple reports of increased international normalized ratio (INR) in patients taking warfarin with glucosamine, with or without chondroitin. The lack of reports with chondroitin alone seem to suggest that the interactions occurring in these reports may have been due to glucosamine. In two individual case reports, glucosamine/chondroitin combinations were associated with a significant increase in INR in patients previously stabilized on warfarin. Additionally, 20 voluntary case reports to the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) have linked glucosamine plus chondroitin with increased INR, bruising, and bleeding in patients who were also taking warfarin. There have also been 20 additional case reports to the World Health Organization (WHO) that link glucosamine alone, without chondroitin, to increased INR in patients taking warfarin.

Ultra Collagen Enhance by ResVitale: Common Questions

Does Ultra Collagen Enhance by ResVitale interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Ultra Collagen Enhance has a known interaction with 1,277 medications, including 8 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Ultra Collagen Enhance contains 8 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 it safe to take this during pregnancy?
Safety data vary by ingredient. Resveratrol advises against supplement use in pregnancy. Chondroitin, pomegranate extract, grapes (as concentrated supplements), asparagus, mangosteen, and pagoda tree (quercetin) lack enough safety information and should be avoided. Hyaluronic acid and acerola have no pregnancy data on file. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice before using this product if you're pregnant.
Can I take this if I'm breastfeeding?
Resveratrol should be avoided while breastfeeding. Chondroitin, pomegranate extract, grapes (concentrated), asparagus, camu camu, mangosteen, and pagoda tree lack safety data for breastfeeding. Acerola and acai have no information on file. The coffee content adds caffeine, which does pass into breast milk and may make your baby fussy or affect sleep. Discuss this product with your doctor or pharmacist before use.
Will this actually improve my skin?
Evidence is limited. Hyaluronic acid is possibly effective for dry eye but insufficient evidence exists for aging skin specifically. Resveratrol, chondroitin, acai, and acerola lack proven effectiveness for skin aging in our data. The product combines collagen and antioxidants that are commonly marketed for skin, but their actual benefit for wrinkles or texture isn't well established.
Does this product contain caffeine?
Yes, it contains coffee (Coffea arabica) as an active ingredient. This adds caffeine, which can cause jitteriness, anxiety, insomnia, and rapid heartbeat in some people, especially if you drink caffeinated beverages or take other stimulants. If you're sensitive to caffeine or take medications like lamotrigine or clozapine, mention this to your pharmacist.
What are the most common side effects?
Resveratrol may cause diarrhea, loose stools, and stomach discomfort at higher doses. Chondroitin sulfate may cause bloating, constipation, diarrhea, or nausea. Grapes may cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, headache, or joint pain. Pomegranate may cause diarrhea or gas. Coffee may cause anxiety, insomnia, or stomach upset. Most ingredients are generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses.
Can I take this with my other supplements?
That depends on what they are. If any contain ephedrine, blood thinners, or medications listed in our Med Watch section above, you'll need to check with your pharmacist first. Bring a complete list of all supplements and prescriptions so we can review them together.
