Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Vivix Cellular Anti-Aging Tonic. 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, elderberry might interfere with immunosuppressant therapy due to its immunostimulant activity.
 Details
Elderberry has immunostimulant activity, increasing the production of cytokines, including interleukin and tumor necrosis factor (10796).
|
Theoretically, elderberry might interact with pazopanib, potentially increasing the risk of adverse effects.
Details
|
Theoretically, grape extracts may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Details
|
Ingesting grape juice with cyclosporine can reduce cyclosporine absorption.
Details
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy young adults shows that intake of purple grape juice 200 mL along with cyclosporine can decrease the absorption of cyclosporine by up to 30% when compared with water (53177). Separate doses of grape juice and cyclosporine by at least 2 hours to avoid this interaction.
|
Theoretically, grape juice might reduce the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Details
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of CYP1A2 (2539).
|
It is unclear if grape juice or grape seed extract inhibits CYP2C9; research is conflicting.
Details
In vitro evidence shows that grape seed extract or grape juice might inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes (11094,53011,53089). However, a small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that drinking 8 ounces of grape juice once does not affect the clearance of flurbiprofen, a probe-drug for CYP2C9 metabolism (11094). The effects of continued grape juice consumption are unclear.
|
Theoretically, grape seed extract may increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates.
Details
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP2D6 enzymes (53011). However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
Theoretically, grape seed extract might increase the levels of CYP2E1 substrates.
Details
In vitro and animal research suggests that grape seed proanthocyanidin extract inhibits CYP2E1 enzymes (52949). However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
|
It is unclear if grape seed extract inhibits or induces CYP3A4; research is conflicting.
Details
|
Theoretically, long-term intake of grape seed extract might decrease the effects of midazolam.
Details
Animal research shows that subchronic ingestions of grape seed extract can increase the elimination of intravenous midazolam by increasing hepatic CYP3A4 activity. Single doses of grape seed extract do not appear to affect midazolam elimination (53011).
|
Grape juice might decrease phenacetin absorption.
Details
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) (2539).

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Vivix Cellular Anti-Aging Tonic. 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
...Orally, carrot is well tolerated when consumed as a food.
It also seems to be generally well-tolerated when consumed as a medicine. Some people are allergic to carrot; allergic symptoms include anaphylactic, cutaneous, respiratory, and gastrointestinal reactions such as hives, swelling of the larynx, asthma, or diarrhea (25820,93606,106560). In infants, excessive consumption of carrot products in nursing bottles has been reported to cause extensive caries in the primary teeth (25817).
Topically, carrot has been associated with a case of phytophotodermatitis (101716).
Dental ...Orally, feeding carrot juice to infants, with or without sugar- or acid-containing beverages, has been reported to damage teeth and cause dental caries (25817).
Dermatologic ...Orally, excessive consumption of carrots or carrot-containing products can cause yellowing of the skin, which results from increased beta-carotene levels in the blood (25817). Carrots may cause allergic reactions in some patients. Allergic responses to carrot-containing foods include skin reactions such as hives, erythema, swelling, and/or papules (25820,96306).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, carrots may cause allergic reactions in some patients. Allergic responses to carrot-containing foods can include gastrointestinal symptoms, such as diarrhea (25820).
Immunologic
...Orally, carrots may cause allergic reactions in some patients (25820,96306,106560).
Allergic responses to carrot-containing foods can include skin reactions such as hives, erythema, swelling, and/or papules (25820,96306). For one patient, treatment of skin lesions resolved after a month of oral antihistamines and topical steroids, and avoiding further contact with carrot (96306). Allergic responses to carrot-containing foods can also include gastrointestinal symptoms, such as diarrhea, and respiratory symptoms, such as swelling of the larynx or asthma (25820). In one case, a patient with a history of allergic rhinitis and asthma who had been successfully treated with subcutaneous immunotherapy and was tolerant of consumption of raw and cooked carrots developed rhinoconjunctivitis when handling carrots. Inhalation of dust particles and aerosols produced by food processing activities and containing allergens from the peel and pulp of carrots is thought to have sensitized the airway, producing a distinct form of respiratory food allergy in which there are typically no symptoms with ingestion (106560).
Topically, a female runner developed phytophotodermatitis, which was considered possibly associated with the inclusion of carrot in a sunscreen (Yes To Carrots Daily Facial Moisturizer with SPF 15; Yes to, Inc.) (101716).
Psychiatric ...Compulsive carrot eating is a rare condition in which the patient craves carrots. According to one case report, withdrawal symptoms include nervousness, cravings, insomnia, water brash, and irritability (25821).
General
...Orally, elderberry extracts prepared from ripe fruit seem to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: When adverse effects occur, they are likely due to ingestion of raw and unripe elderberries, or seeds, leaves, and other plant parts. Due to cyanogenic glycosides, these may cause nausea, vomiting, severe diarrhea, weakness, dizziness, numbness, and stupor. Cooking eliminates the toxin.
Gastrointestinal
...Orally, nausea and vomiting have been reported after consuming a specific elderberry and echinacea product
Vogel Bioforce AG) (95650). However, it is unclear if this was due to the elderberry or Echinacea contained in the product.
Raw and unripe elderberries, and the seeds, leaves, and other elder tree parts might cause nausea, vomiting, or severe diarrhea due to cyanogenic glycosides (17020,17021). Cooking eliminates the toxin.
Hepatic ...In one case report, a 60-year-old female with underlying autoimmune disease presented with autoimmune hepatitis after taking elderberry at an unknown dose for several years. The patient presented with nausea, jaundice, abdominal pain, and abdominal distention. Liver function tests returned to baseline 4 weeks after initiating treatment with prednisone 40 mg daily and discontinuing elderberry (110123).
Immunologic ...Elder tree pollen might cause an allergic reaction characterized by rhinitis and dyspnea in some patients who are allergic to grass pollen. These patients might also experience an allergic reaction to elderberry extracts (11095).
Neurologic/CNS ...Raw and unripe elderberries might cause weakness, dizziness, numbness, and stupor due to cyanogenic glycosides (17020,17021). Cooking eliminates the toxin.
General
...Orally, the whole fruit, as well as the seed, fruit, and leaf extracts, seem to be well tolerated.
Topically, grape seed extracts seem to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal pain, diarrhea, dry mouth, dyspepsia, headache, joint pain, and nausea.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Anaphylaxis to grape skin has been reported.
Dermatologic ...Orally, mild hair thinning has been reported in a patient taking a specific grape leaf extract AS195 KG) (2538). Urticaria (hives) has also been reported with this same extract (53206). Cases of contact dermatitis have been reported in grape workers, including those working in California vineyards (53270,53272,53275).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, abdominal pain and nausea have been reported with use of grape seed extract, but these effects typically occur at rates similar to placebo (9182,13162). In a case report of a 57-year-old man, intermittent nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea occurred over a 10-day period and improved once grape seed extract was stopped (96764). Gastrointestinal adverse effects have also been reported with use of a different grape seed extract (Entelon, Hanlim Pharm). However, the specific types of gastrointestinal effects were not described (100954). A specific grape leaf extract AS195 (Antistax, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG) has reportedly caused flatulence, mild constipation, gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea, dyspepsia, dry mouth, and retching (2538,52985,53206). Diarrhea, gastrointestinal distress, indigestion, and aversion to taste have been reported with use of Concord grape juice (52972,53166,53175,53181,53199). Loose stools have been reported in a clinical trial of grape pomace (99270). Bowel obstruction caused by intact grapes and grape seeds has been described in case reports (53241,53284,53278). Excessive consumption of grapes, dried grapes, raisins, or sultanas might cause diarrhea due to laxative effects (4201).
Hematologic ...Orally, one case of leg hematoma following a minor trauma was reported in a person using grape leaf extract (2538). Also, one case of bruising was reported in a person drinking Concord grape juice daily for 2 weeks (52972).
Immunologic ...Orally, there is one report of an anaphylactic reaction to oral grape skin extract, which included urticaria and angioedema (4073).
Musculoskeletal ...Orally, musculoskeletal disorders, including back pain, have been reported with use of a specific grape leaf extract AS195 KG) (2538,53206). Joint pain and lumbago have been reported with use of grape seed extract, but these effects occur at rates similar to placebo (91541).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, headache has been reported with use of grape seed extract, but this effect occurs at rates similar to placebo (9182,91541). A specific grape leaf extract AS195 (Antistax, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG) has reportedly caused dizziness, tiredness, headache, and sleep problems (2538,53206). As a class, nervous system adverse effects have been reported with use of a specific grape seed extract (Entelon, Hanlim Pharm). However, the specific types of adverse neurologic effects were not described (100954).
Ocular/Otic ...Orally, ocular adverse effects have been reported with use of a specific grape seed extract (Entelon, Hanlim Pharm). However, the specific types of ocular adverse effects were not described (100954).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Orally, nasopharyngitis and oropharyngeal pain have been reported with use of a specific grape leaf extract AS195 KG) (53206). Sore throat, cough, allergic rhinitis, and nasopharyngitis have been reported with use of grape seed extract, but these effects occur at rates similar to placebo (9182,91541). One case report describes a 16-year-old female who developed increased levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) following skin-prick exposure to grape vine pollen, as well as positive test responses following bronchial and conjunctival provocation (53301). Reduced forced vital capacity has been described in California grape workers (53080,53081). Occupational eosinophilic lung was diagnosed in a grape grower with a history of asthma. Respiratory exposure to sulfites in grape was implicated as the cause of the adverse reaction (53285).
Other
...Orally, grape products can cause adverse effects due to contamination with pesticides or mycotoxins.
Some evidence has shown that pesticides used in vineyards may remain on grape surfaces post-harvesting. For example, the fungicide folpet sprayed on grapevines has been shown to remain on the grape surface. Although there was minimal penetration of the epicuticular wax, it showed high resistance to washing (52935). Carbaryl has been identified in over 58% of juice samples collected in Canada. This pesticide reportedly occurred more frequently in grape than in other juices. However, estimates of short-term intake were below proposed acute reference doses (53003).
Ochratoxin A is a mycotoxin that is suspected to be nephrotoxic, teratogenic, hepatotoxic and carcinogenic and has been identified in grape juice, frozen grape pulps, and red and white wine sold in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. However, the highest levels identified in grape products were lower than the established virtually safe dose of 5 ng/kg of body weight daily (53010,53004). Ochratoxin A has also been identified in red, but not white, grape juice marketed in Switzerland, Canada, and the U.S. (53292,53020).
General
...In foods, resveratrol is well tolerated.
When used orally in higher doses, as well as topically or intranasally, resveratrol seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Diarrhea, gastrointestinal discomfort, and loose stools.
Dermatologic
...Orally, there is one case of a pruritic skin rash that occurred in a clinical trial.
The rash resolved two weeks after stopping resveratrol (109163).
Topically, a case of allergic contact dermatitis has been reported after applying a facial cream (Resveratrol BE, Skinceuticals) containing aqueous resveratrol 1% in combination with Baikal skullcap root extract 0.5%. Patch testing identified a positive reaction to both ingredients (110024).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, mild gastrointestinal discomfort with increased diarrhea or loose stools has been reported, especially when resveratrol is taken in doses of 2. 5-5 grams daily (71042,71052,91327,95830,109163,109164,109167).
Hematologic ...In one clinical study, a patient developed severe febrile leukopenia and thrombocytopenia after taking oral resveratrol 500 mg three times daily for 10 days. Upon re-exposure to resveratrol, febrile leukopenia recurred (109163).
Musculoskeletal ...Orally, resveratrol has been associated with muscle cramps in patients on peritoneal dialysis. The causality of this adverse effect has not been established (95830).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, resveratrol has been associated with headache, fatigue, and memory loss in patients on peritoneal dialysis. The causality of these adverse effects has not been established (95830).
