POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when used topically. Topical application of apple cider vinegar has been reported to cause chemical burns in at least three patients. Mild skin irritation is common (91662,93074,101172). ...when used orally in large amounts, long-term. A case of hypokalemia, hyperreninemia, and osteoporosis has been reported for a patient who consumed apple cider vinegar 250 mL daily for 6 years (31730).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when taken orally and appropriately. Bacillus coagulans spores in doses up to 6 billion colony-forming units (CFUs) daily have been used with apparent safety in clinical studies for up to 3 months (92726,92730,92734,92735,92736,92739,92740,104231,105169)(107611,107612,107614). Lower doses of B. coagulans up to 100 million CFUs daily have been used with apparent safety in clinical studies for up to one year (92738). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of non-viable, heat-killed B. coagulans formulations when used orally.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when taken orally and appropriately.
Bacillus coagulans spores in doses up to 100 million colony-forming units (CFUs) daily have been used with apparent safety in clinical studies in infants of most ages for up to one year (92729,92733,92738) and in doses of one billion CFUs in children aged 6-8 years for 3 months (107615). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of Bacillus coagulans in preterm infants with a birth weight under 1000 grams. Cases of bacteremia have occurred rarely in preterm infants given other probiotics (102416,111610,111612,111613,111850,111852,111853). The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning about cases of serious infections caused by probiotics reported in very preterm or very low birth weight infants under 1000 grams (111610). Similarly, the American Academy of Pediatrics does not support the routine administration of probiotics to these infants due to conflicting data on safety and efficacy (111608).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately, short-term. Collagen peptides have been used with apparent safety at doses up to 10 grams daily for up to 6 months and in doses up to 40 grams daily for up to 4 weeks (97632,97635,101615,101621,104638,104643,104644,104647,101622,110667).

LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. Ginger has been safely used in multiple clinical trials (721,722,723,5343,7048,7084,7085,7400,7623,11346)(12472,13080,13237,13244,17369,17928,17929,89889,89890,89894)(89895,89898,89899,90102,96252,96253,96259,96260,96669) (101760,101761,101762,103359,107903).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used topically and appropriately, short-term (89893,89897).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when consumed in the amounts typically found in foods.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately, short-term.
Ginger powder has been used with apparent safety at a dose of up to 750 mg daily for 4 days in girls aged 14-18 years (96255).
PREGNANCY: LIKELY SAFE
when consumed in the amounts typically found in foods.
Ginger is considered a first-line nonpharmacological treatment option for nausea in pregnancy by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) (111601). However, it should not be used long-term or without medical supervision and close monitoring.
PREGNANCY: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used for medicinal purposes.
Despite some early reports of adverse effects (721,7083) and one observational study suggesting that taking dried ginger and other herbal supplements during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy marginally increased the chance of stillbirth (96254), most research shows that ginger is unlikely to cause harm to the baby. The risk for major malformations in infants of parents who took ginger when pregnant does not appear to be higher than the baseline rate of 1% to 3% (721,1922,5343,11346,13071,13080,96254). Also, other research suggests that ginger intake during various trimesters does not significantly affect the risk of spontaneous abortion, congenital malformations, stillbirth, perinatal death, preterm birth, low birth weight, or low Apgar scores (18211,90103). Ginger use has been associated with an increase in non-severe vaginal bleeding, including spotting, after week 17 of pregnancy (18211).
LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when consumed in the amounts typically found in foods.
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of ginger when used for medicinal purposes; avoid amounts greater than those found in foods.
LIKELY SAFE ...when peppermint oil is used orally, topically, or rectally in medicinal doses. Peppermint oil has been safely used in multiple clinical trials (3801,3804,6190,6740,6741,10075,12009,13413,14467,17681)(17682,68522,96344,96360,96361,96362,96363,96364,96365,99493).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when peppermint leaf is used orally and appropriately, short-term. There is some clinical research showing that peppermint leaf can be used safely for up to 8 weeks (12724,13413). The long-term safety of peppermint leaf in medicinal doses is unknown. ...when peppermint oil is used by inhalation as aromatherapy (7107). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of using intranasal peppermint oil.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally for medicinal purposes.
Enteric-coated peppermint oil capsules have been used with apparent safety under medical supervision in children 8 years of age and older (4469).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in amounts commonly found in foods (96361).
There is insufficient information available about the safety of using peppermint in medicinal amounts during pregnancy or lactation; avoid using.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately (4,12,272,512,1740).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
Slippery elm bark has historically been inserted into the cervix to induce abortion. As a result, slippery elm has been reported in some sources to have abortifacient activity. However, there is no reliable information available about whether slippery elm has abortifacient activity when taken orally.
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Multi Collagen Gut Restore. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Theoretically, taking apple cider vinegar with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
 Details
Apple cider vinegar might reduce fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels and decrease gastric emptying in people with diabetes (17609,17614,106285,106287). However, not all research agrees (106284). Theoretically, it might have additive effects on glucose levels when used with antidiabetes drugs.
|
Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with digoxin might increase the risk of cardiac toxicity.
Details
A case of hypokalemia related to chronic use of apple cider vinegar has been reported (5911). Theoretically, overuse of apple cider vinegar could decrease potassium levels, increasing the risk of toxicity with digoxin.
|
Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with diuretic drugs might increase the risk of hypokalemia.
Details
A case of hypokalemia related to chronic use of apple cider vinegar has been reported (5911). There is some concern that people taking apple cider vinegar along with potassium depleting diuretics might have an increased risk for hypokalemia.
|
Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with insulin might increase the risk of hypokalemia.
Details
|
Theoretically, taking antibiotics with Bacillus coagulans might decrease the effectiveness of B. coagulans.
Details
B. coagulans preparations usually contain live and active organisms. Therefore, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and B. coagulans preparations by at least two hours.
|
Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs. However, research is conflicting.
Details
Laboratory research suggests that ginger inhibits thromboxane synthetase and decreases platelet aggregation (7622,12634,20321,20322,20323,96257). However, this has not been demonstrated unequivocally in humans, with mixed results from clinical trials (96257). Theoretically, excessive amounts of ginger might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
|
Theoretically, taking ginger with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Details
|
Theoretically, taking ginger with calcium channel blockers might increase the risk of hypotension.
Details
Some animal and in vitro research suggests that ginger has hypotensive and calcium channel-blocking effects (12633). Another animal study shows that concomitant administration of ginger and the calcium channel blocker amlodipine leads to greater reductions in blood pressure when compared with amlodipine alone (107901).
|
Theoretically, when taken prior to cyclosporine, ginger might decrease cyclosporine levels.
Details
In an animal model, ginger juice taken 2 hours prior to cyclosporine administration reduced the maximum concentration and area under the curve of cyclosporine by 51% and 40%, respectively. This effect was not observed when ginger juice and cyclosporine were administered at the same time (20401).
|
Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Details
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP1A2 activity (111544). However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2B6 substrates.
Details
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2B6 activity (111544). However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
Details
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2C9 activity (111544). However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
Ginger might increase or decrease the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Details
In vitro research and some case reports suggest that ginger inhibits CYP3A4 activity (111544,111644). Three case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are CYP3A4 substrates (imatinib, dabrafenib, and crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration (111644).
Conversely, other in vitro research suggests that ginger induces CYP3A4 activity, leading to reduced levels of CYP3A4 substrates (111404). However, this interaction has not been reported in humans. |
Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of losartan and the risk of hypotension.
Details
In animal research, ginger increased the levels and hypotensive effects of a single dose of losartan (102459). It is not clear if ginger alters the concentration or effects of losartan when taken continuously. Additionally, this interaction has not been shown in humans.
|
Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of metronidazole.
Details
In an animal model, ginger increased the absorption and plasma half-life of metronidazole. In addition, the elimination rate and clearance of metronidazole was significantly reduced (20350).
|
Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and increase the risk of bleeding if used with nifedipine.
Details
Clinical research shows that combined treatment with ginger 1 gram plus nifedipine 10 mg significantly inhibits platelet aggregation when compared to nifedipine or ginger alone (20324).
|
Ginger might increase the absorption and blood levels of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates.
Details
In vitro research and case reports suggest that ginger inhibits drug efflux by P-gp, potentially increasing absorption and serum levels of P-gp substrates (111544,111644). Two case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are P-gp substrates (trametinib, crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration (111644).
|
Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with phenprocoumon.
Details
Phenprocoumon, a warfarin-related anticoagulant, might increase the international normalized ratio (INR) when taken with ginger. There is one case report of a 76-year-old woman with a stable INR on phenprocoumon that increased to greater than 10 when she began consuming dried ginger and ginger tea (12880).
|
Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Details
Laboratory research suggests that ginger might inhibit thromboxane synthetase and decrease platelet aggregation (7622,12634,20321,20322,20323). In one case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with phenprocoumon, which has similar pharmacological effects as warfarin (12880). In another case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with a combination of warfarin, hydrochlorothiazide, and acetaminophen (20349). A longitudinal analysis suggests that taking ginger increases the risk of bleeding in patients taking warfarin for at least 4 months (20348). However, research in healthy people suggests that ginger has no effect on INR, or the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of warfarin (12881,15176). Until more is known, monitor INRs closely in patients taking large amounts of ginger.
|
Theoretically, peppermint oil might increase the levels and adverse effects of cyclosporine.
Details
In animal research, peppermint oil inhibits cyclosporine metabolism and increases cyclosporine levels. Inhibition of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) may be partially responsible for this interaction (11784). An interaction between peppermint oil and cyclosporine has not been reported in humans.
|
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Details
In vitro and animal research shows that peppermint oil and peppermint leaf inhibit CYP1A2 (12479,12734). However, in clinical research, peppermint tea did not significantly affect the metabolism of caffeine, a CYP1A2 substrate. It is possible that the 6-day duration of treatment may have been too short to identify a difference (96359).
|
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP2C19 substrates.
Details
In vitro research shows that peppermint oil inhibits CYP2C19 (12479). So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
Details
In vitro research shows that peppermint oil inhibits CYP2C9 (12479). So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
Theoretically, peppermint might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Details
|
Theoretically, slippery elm may slow the absorption and reduce serum levels of oral drugs.
Details
Slippery elm inner bark contains mucilage, which may interfere with the absorption of orally administered drugs (19).

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Multi Collagen Gut Restore. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...In food amounts, apple cider vinegar is well tolerated.
It seems to be well tolerated when used orally, short-term for medicinal purposes. However, in larger amounts, long-term use may be unsafe.
Topically, apple cider vinegar may be unsafe.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Hypokalemia, hyperreninemia, and osteoporosis have been reported with long-term use.
Topically: Chemical burns, skin irritation.
Dermatologic ...Topically, apple cider vinegar may cause chemical burns. There is one published report of an individual who developed a chemical burn caused by a single topical application of apple cider vinegar containing 5% acetic acid to the skin (91662). Another case of chemical burn has been reported for a 14-year-old patient who applied apple cider vinegar to the skin for 3 days to remove a nevi. Symptoms included erythema, irritation, and non-inflammatory skin erosion. Symptoms were treated by applying mupirocin 2% ointment twice a day for several weeks and using sunscreen on the erosion and surrounding skin (93074). In one clinical trial, use of 0.5% apple cider vinegar soaks commonly caused skin irritation. One patient in this study experienced a nonpruritic papular rash, while another patient experienced severe pruritis with burning and erosion (101172). In another report, a female had an apple cider vinegar tablet lodged in the throat for 30 minutes, resulting in tenderness and pain in the larynx and difficulty swallowing for 6 months following the incident. This was thought to be due to the acid content of the tablet (13183).
Renal ...There is one published report of an individual who developed hypokalemia, elevated renin levels, high positive urinary anion gap, and osteoporosis after ingesting apple cider vinegar 250 mL per day for 6 years. The osteoporosis was attributed to buffering of the acute acid load by bone, and the other effects were attributed to significant bicarbonate excretion (31730).
General
...Orally, Bacillus coagulans is well tolerated.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: There is concern that probiotics may cause infections in some people.
Immunologic ...Since many probiotic preparations contain live and active microorganisms, there is some concern that they might cause pathogenic infection in some patients. Bacteremia and sepsis have been reported in patients with indwelling or central venous catheters or patients who are severely ill and/or immunocompromised, including preterm infants, that were using probiotic products (4380,8561,13008,13070,90298,102416,103444,105138,105140,105141)(107543,107597,107599,111610,111612,111613,111850,111852,111853). However, reports of pathogenic colonization in relatively healthy patients with intact immune systems who do not have indwelling or central venous catheters are extremely rare (4380,4389,4390,4391,4393,4398,105139,107543,107545,107546,107547).
General ...Orally, collagen peptides seem to be well tolerated.
Dermatologic ...Orally, a case of a mild skin rash has been reported for a patient who used a specific collagen peptide-containing product (BioCell Collagen) (28680).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, collagen peptides may cause nausea, dyspepsia, diarrhea, and flatulence, but these adverse effects are rare (101622,104639).
General
...Orally, ginger is generally well tolerated.
However, higher doses of 5 grams per day increase the risk of side effects and reduce tolerability. Topically, ginger seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal discomfort, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, and a pepper-like irritant effect in the mouth and throat. However, some of these mild symptoms may be reduced by ingesting encapsulated ginger in place of powdered ginger.
Topically: Dermatitis in sensitive individuals.
Cardiovascular ...Orally, use of ginger resulted in mild arrhythmia in one patient in a clinical trial (16306).
Dermatologic
...Orally, ginger can cause hives (17933), as well as bruising and flushing (20316) or rash (20316).
Topically, ginger can cause dermatitis in sensitive individuals (12635,46902).
Gastrointestinal
...Orally, common side effects of ginger include nausea (17933,22602,89898,101761), belching (10380,103359), dry mouth (103359), dry retching (10380), vomiting (10380), burning sensation (10380), oral numbness (22602), abdominal discomfort (5343,89898,96253), heartburn (5343,7624,12472,16306,20316,51845,89894,89895,89898,89899)(101760,101761,101762,111543), diarrhea (5343,101760), constipation (89898,101760,101761), or a transient burning or "chilly hot" sensation of the tongue and throat (52076).
Orally, Number Ten, a specific product composed of rhubarb, ginger, astragalus, red sage, and turmeric, can increase the incidence of loose stools (20346).
Four cases of small bowel obstruction due to ginger bolus have been reported following the ingestion of raw ginger without sufficient mastication (chewing). In each case, the bolus was removed by enterotomy. Ginger is composed of cellulose and therefore is resistant to digestion. It can absorb water, which may cause it to swell and become lodged in narrow areas of the digestive tract (52115).
Genitourinary ...In one clinical trial, some patients reported increased menstrual bleeding while taking a specific ginger extract (Zintoma, Goldaru) 250 mg four times daily orally for 3 days (17931). An "intense" urge to urinate after 30 minutes was reported in two of eight patients given 0.5-1 gram of ginger (7624). However, this effect has not been corroborated elsewhere. Dysuria, flank pain, perineal pain, and urinary stream interruption have been reported in a 43-year-old male who drank ginger tea, containing 2-3 teaspoons of dry ginger, daily over 15 years. The adverse effects persisted for 4 years and were not associated with increases in urinary frequency or urgency. Upon discontinuing ginger, the patient's symptoms began to improve within one week and completely resolved after eight weeks, with no relapses six months later (107902).
Immunologic ...In one case report, a 59-year-old Japanese female with multiple allergic sensitivities developed pruritus and then anaphylactic shock after taking an oral ginger-containing herbal supplement for motion sickness (Keimei Gashinsan, Keimeido). The patient had used this supplement previously for over 20 years with no allergic reaction. The authors theorized the development of a cross-reactivity to ginger after the use of an oral supplement containing zedoary and turmeric, which are also in the Zingiberaceae family (102463).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, ginger may cause sedation, drowsiness, or dizziness (16306,17933,51845).
General
...Orally, topically, or rectally, peppermint oil is generally well tolerated.
Inhaled,
peppermint oil seems to be well tolerated. Intranasally, no adverse effects have been reported. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted. Orally, peppermint leaf seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal pain, anal burning, belching, diarrhea, dry mouth, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting.
Topically: Burning, dermatitis, irritation, and redness.
Dermatologic
...Topically, peppermint oil can cause skin irritation, burning, erythema, and contact dermatitis (3802,11781,31528,43338,68473,68457,68509,96361,96362).
Also, a case of severe mucosal injury has been reported for a patient who misused an undiluted over the counter mouthwash that contained peppermint and arnica oil in 70% alcohol (19106).
In large amounts, peppermint oil may cause chemical burns when used topically or orally. A case of multiple burns in the oral cavity and pharynx, along with edema of the lips, tongue, uvula, and soft palate, has been reported for a 49-year-old female who ingested 40 drops of pure peppermint oil. Following treatment with intravenous steroids and antibiotics, the patient's symptoms resolved over the course of 2 weeks (68432). Also, a case of chemical burns on the skin and skin necrosis has been reported for a 35-year-old male who spilled undiluted peppermint oil on a previous skin graft (68572). Oral peppermint oil has also been associated with burning mouth syndrome and chronic mouth ulceration in people with contact sensitivity to peppermint (6743). Also, excessive consumption of mint candies containing peppermint oil has been linked to cases of stomatitis (13114).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, peppermint oil can cause heartburn, nausea and vomiting, anal or perianal burning, abdominal pain, belching, dry mouth, diarrhea, and increased appetite (3803,6740,6741,6742,10075,11779,11789,17682,68497,68514)(68532,68544,96344,96360,102602,104219,107955). Enteric-coated capsules might help to reduce the incidence of heartburn (3802,4469,6740,11777). However, in one clinical study, a specific enteric-coated formulation of peppermint oil (Pepogest; Nature's Way) taken as 180 mg three times daily was associated with a higher rate of adverse effects when compared with placebo (48% versus 31%, respectively). Specifically, of the patients consuming this product, 11% experienced belching and 26% experienced heartburn, compared to 2% and 12%, respectively, in the placebo group (107955). A meta-analysis of eight small clinical studies in patients with irritable bowel syndrome shows that taking enteric-coated formulations of peppermint oil increases the risk of gastroesophageal reflux symptoms by 67% when compared with a control group (109980). Enteric-coated capsules can also cause anal burning in people with reduced bowel transit time (11782,11789).
Genitourinary ...Orally, a sensitive urethra has been reported rarely (102602).
Hepatic ...One case of hepatocellular liver injury has been reported following the oral use of peppermint. Symptoms included elevated liver enzymes, fatigue, jaundice, dark urine, and signs of hypersensitivity. Details on the dosage and type of peppermint consumed were unavailable (96358).
Immunologic ...One case of IgE-mediated anaphylaxis, characterized by sudden onset of lip and tongue swelling, tightness of throat, and shortness of breath, has been reported in a 69-year-old male who consumed peppermint candy (89479). An allergic reaction after use of peppermint oil in combination with caraway oil has been reported in a patient with a history of bronchial asthma (96344). It is not clear if this reaction occurred in response to the peppermint or caraway components.
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, headache has been reported rarely (102602).
Ocular/Otic ...Orally, peppermint has been reported to cause blurry vision (3803).
General ...Orally, slippery elm seems to be well tolerated. A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes with topical use of slippery elm has not been conducted.
Dermatologic ...Topically, slippery elm extracts can cause contact dermatitis. The pollen is an allergen (6). Contact dermatitis and urticaria have been reported after exposure to slippery elm or an oleoresin contained in the slippery elm bark (75131).
