HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Yucca 450 mg by The Vitamin Shoppe

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

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: yucca at 450 mg per capsule. Yucca is a plant extract traditionally used in some cultures, though its effectiveness for health purposes isn't well established.

The capsule also contains gelatin and rice flour as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient Yucca product and its label doesn't state a use — see Yucca's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for yucca isn't established in our data. It's been studied for bleeding, joint pain, and dandruff, but we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it actually works for any of these.

If you're thinking about yucca for a specific reason, talk with us about what the research actually shows.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Yucca

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.

Yucca supplement safety hasn't been well studied, so we can't tell you much about what to expect. In people exposed to yucca at work or in gardens, it's been linked to allergic reactions — both inhaled (allergic rhinitis) and skin contact (contact itching and rash).

If you have plant allergies or sensitive skin, let us know before you try this. There isn't enough safety data in pregnancy, and safety while breastfeeding is unknown — talk with your doctor before using yucca if you're pregnant, nursing, or planning to be.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Yucca is generally considered low-risk in food amounts, but supplement safety isn't well studied. The main concern is allergic reactions in people exposed to yucca dust or plant material.

If you have plant allergies or are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Does Yucca 450 mg by The Vitamin Shoppe interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Yucca 450 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Yucca 450 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 this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?

What is yucca used for?
Yucca has been studied for bleeding, joint pain, and dandruff, but we don't have reliable evidence that it works for any of these. The evidence just isn't strong enough to say.
