HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin A 10,000 IU by NewtonEverett

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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.

This product contains one active ingredient: vitamin A at 10,000 IU per softgel capsule. The inactive ingredients are soybean oil, gelatin, and vegetable glycerin, which help deliver and encapsulate the vitamin.

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: Eye and vision health, skin health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Acne, Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), Cataracts, Corneal abrasion, Night vision — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin A is rated "Possibly Effective" for Aging skin (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin A is rated "Possibly Effective" for Night vision, Retinitis pigmentosa.
  • Also on file: Vitamin A is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Melanoma.

Vitamin A is effective for vitamin A deficiency. It's possibly effective for oral leukoplakia (a mouth condition), aging skin, measles, ulcerative colitis, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (a lung condition in premature infants).

The evidence for those last five uses isn't conclusive, but there's some data backing them.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin A

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.

At recommended amounts, vitamin A is generally well tolerated. The catch is that it builds up in your body over time, so high doses can become toxic.

The adverse effects of excess vitamin A range from dry, cracking, itchy skin and hair loss to rare serious problems like pseudotumor cerebri, liver damage, and neurological issues — young children are more vulnerable to toxicity from a single large dose. In pregnancy, the picture is mixed: normal dietary amounts and recommended supplements are considered likely safe, but high-dose vitamin A supplements (especially retinol forms) are possibly unsafe and carry a risk of birth defects.

Avoid high doses unless your doctor directs otherwise. There isn't enough data on file here about safety during breastfeeding — talk with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized guidance.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin A

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

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitamin A.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 388 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 you start, check whether you take retinoids (Major severity), warfarin or other blood thinners, drugs that are hard on the liver, or tetracycline antibiotics (all Moderate). If you're on any of those, run your exact medications through the interaction checker on this page.

For each ingredient in Vitamin A 10,000 IU with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Vitamin A4 drug types · 387 drugs

Retinoids

Concomitant use of retinoids with vitamin A supplements might produce supratherapeutic vitamin A levels.
Retinoids, which are vitamin A derivatives, could have additive toxic effects when taken with vitamin A supplements.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking high doses of vitamin A in combination with other potentially hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver disease.
The tolerable upper intake level (UL) is the highest level of intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects. Doses of vitamin A above the UL can cause hepatotoxicity, ranging from elevated liver enzymes to liver failure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence C
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, taking tetracycline antibiotics with high doses of vitamin A can increase the risk of pseudotumor cerebri.
Benign intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri) can occur with tetracyclines and with acute or chronic vitamin A toxicity. Case reports suggest that taking tetracyclines and vitamin A concurrently can increase the risk of this condition. Avoid high doses of vitamin A in people taking tetracyclines chronically.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, high doses of vitamin A could increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Vitamin A toxicity is associated with hemorrhage and hypoprothrombinemia, possibly due to vitamin K antagonism. Advise patients taking warfarin to avoid doses of vitamin A above the tolerable upper intake level of 10,000 IU/day for adults.

Vitamin A 10,000 IU by NewtonEverett: Common Questions

Does Vitamin A 10,000 IU by NewtonEverett interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vitamin A 10,000 IU has a known interaction with 387 medications, including 9 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Vitamin A 10,000 IU 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 10,000 IU a high dose?
The tolerable upper intake level for adults is 10,000 IU per day — this product is right at that ceiling. It's not dangerous on its own, but if you're getting vitamin A from food or other supplements too, you could tip into the toxic range. Check your total intake with your pharmacist.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
Normal recommended amounts of vitamin A are likely safe in pregnancy, but high-dose supplements (especially retinol) are possibly unsafe and linked to birth defects. Since this is at the upper limit, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for your situation.
What does vitamin A actually do for your skin?
Vitamin A is possibly effective for aging skin based on the evidence we have. It supports skin cell turnover and health, though the research isn't conclusive enough to promise dramatic results.
What are the signs I'm taking too much?
Vitamin A toxicity shows up as dry, cracking, itchy skin, skin redness and rash, hair loss, brittle nails, and fatigue. At very high doses, you can get headaches, blurred vision, and serious liver problems. If you're seeing these, stop and call your doctor right away.
Can I take this with my acne medication?
If your acne medication is a retinoid (like tretinoin or adapalene), you should not combine it with a vitamin A supplement without talking to your doctor first. Retinoids and vitamin A together can build up to toxic levels.
