HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin A Drops 1,500 mcg RAE/Drop by Seeking Health
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: vitamin A at 1,500 mcg per drop. The remaining ingredients are inactive—glycerin, purified water, sunflower lecithin, medium chain triglyceride oil, and rosemary extract—which serve as a base, preservative, and delivery system for the vitamin.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin A is effective for vitamin A deficiency. The evidence is less robust but suggests it may help with oral leukoplakia (a precancerous mouth condition), aging skin, measles, ulcerative colitis, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (a lung complication in premature infants), though more research is needed for those uses.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin A is generally well tolerated at recommended doses, but it's fat-soluble and builds up in your body, so high doses can become toxic. Symptoms of overdose include headache, vertigo, blurred vision, dry and peeling skin, hair loss, and in severe cases, liver damage and neurological problems.
Pregnancy and lactation: the safety data is mixed. At normal dietary and recommended supplement amounts, vitamin A is appropriate during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
However, high-dose vitamin A supplements — especially the retinol form — carry a risk of birth defects and should be avoided. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what dose is right for you if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before starting this product, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you take retinoids (like tretinoin or isotretinoin), blood thinners such as warfarin, tetracycline antibiotics, or any drugs known to burden the liver. The dose here is below the upper safe limit, but combining it with certain medications can raise toxicity risk.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is useful if you're correcting a vitamin A deficiency or exploring treatment for skin, gut, or respiratory conditions under professional guidance. If you take retinoids, blood thinners, tetracycline antibiotics, or medications that stress the liver, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
At the recommended dose, it's generally well tolerated, but don't exceed the label without medical direction, since high-dose vitamin A is toxic and accumulates over time.

Vitamin A Drops 1,500 mcg RAE/Drop by Seeking Health Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Vitamin A Drops by Seeking Health can interact with several medication types, and the most serious concern involves retinoids (vitamin A derivatives like tretinoin and isotretinoin).
Taking this supplement alongside retinoids risks pushing vitamin A to toxic levels, with additive poisoning effects. Altogether, these interactions span 388 individual medications.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Other major worries: high doses with blood thinners like warfarin may increase bleeding risk, because vitamin A toxicity can interfere with blood clotting; tetracycline antibiotics paired with high-dose vitamin A can raise the risk of a serious condition called benign intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri), marked by increased pressure inside the skull; and hepatotoxic drugs (medications that stress the liver) could compound liver damage if you're taking large amounts of vitamin A, since the vitamin builds up in your body and can harm the liver at high doses.
The dose in this product — 1,500 mcg per drop — is well below the tolerable upper limit of 10,000 IU per day for adults, so at recommended amounts, interactions are less likely. Still, if you take retinoids, blood thinners, tetracycline antibiotics, or other liver-taxing drugs, run them through the interaction checker on this page before you start.

For each ingredient in Vitamin A Drops 1,500 mcg RAE/Drop 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 A
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.
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.
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.
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.
