HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitex Berry 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition

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 Sep 24, 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: vitex (Vitex agnus-castus), 1000 mg per capsule. Vitex is an herbal extract traditionally used to support hormonal balance, particularly around the menstrual cycle.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — cellulose, glycerin, and water — which help form and deliver the active ingredient.

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Vitex Agnus-castus's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Vitex Agnus-castus for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Mastalgia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Vitex is possibly effective for premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and mastalgia (breast pain related to your cycle), based on available evidence. For fractures, the data suggests it's likely not effective.

The evidence isn't established in our data for its use with aging skin, premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), or anxiety — meaning we don't have enough reliable studies to say whether it works for those.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitex Agnus-castus

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.

Vitex is generally well tolerated when taken short-term, though its hormone-modulating effects mean you should use it under guidance. Common side effects reported in trials include diarrhea, fatigue, headache, insomnia, irregular menstruation, nausea, stomach pain, and vomiting.

Some people have also reported skin-related effects like itching, rash, acne, or hair loss, and irregular or prolonged menstrual bleeding has been noted. The safety data advises against vitex during pregnancy due to possible hormonal effects and limited safety data.

Breastfeeding is also not recommended because vitex may influence milk-related hormones and safety isn't clear. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this.

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitex Agnus-castus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 121 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 Vitex Berry, double-check with your pharmacist if you take antipsychotic drugs, metoclopramide (Reglan), contraceptive medications, estrogen or hormone replacement therapy, or dopamine agonist drugs for movement disorders. All of these carry Moderate risk of interference with vitex's dopamine and hormone effects.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Vitex may be worth considering if you have PMS or cyclic breast pain and want an herbal option — but it's not a first choice if you take psychiatric medications, birth control, hormone therapy, or dopamine-related drugs. The hormone-modulating activity that makes it useful for cycle support is the same thing that can interfere with these medications.

Check your full medication list with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

Vitex Berry 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition: Common Questions

Does Vitex Berry 1000 mg by Remedys Nutrition interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vitex Berry 1000 mg has a known interaction with 121 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Vitex Berry 1000 mg 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.
Can I take vitex if I'm on birth control?
Not without talking to your doctor first. Vitex has hormone-modulating activity that may theoretically interfere with how oral contraceptives work, potentially lowering their effectiveness. Your doctor or pharmacist can help you weigh the risks and decide whether it's safe for your situation.
What are the most common side effects?
The most common ones reported are diarrhea, fatigue, headache, insomnia, irregular menstruation, nausea, and stomach pain. Skin issues like rash, acne, or itching have also been noted, and some people report irregular or prolonged menstrual bleeding.
Is vitex safe during pregnancy?
No. The safety data advises against it during pregnancy due to possible hormonal effects and limited safety data. If you're pregnant or planning to be, don't take this without clearing it with your doctor.
Can I use vitex while breastfeeding?
No. Vitex may influence milk-related hormones and safety isn't clear, so it's not recommended while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're considering it.
Does vitex actually work for PMS?
The evidence shows it's possibly effective for premenstrual syndrome and breast pain related to your cycle. That means there's reasonable support, but it's not a slam-dunk — results vary person to person.
What's actually in this capsule besides vitex?
The capsule contains cellulose, glycerin, and water — these are inactive ingredients that help hold and deliver the vitex. There are no added fillers or dyes listed.
