Overview
•Lycopene at 15 mg daily is well within safe limits (up to 75 mg/day studied without adverse effects), with minimal side effects reported in clinical trials.
•No significant drug interactions identified for this lycopene-only formulation; however, it may mildly enhance effects of blood-thinning medications due to antioxidant properties.
•Safe for healthy adults, but pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare provider as high-dose lycopene lacks extensive safety data in these populations.
•Gelatin in softgels poses risk for those with bovine allergies; product is gluten-free and non-GMO with no common allergens like soy or nuts.
•Long-term use appears safe based on studies up to 6 months; monitor for rare gastrointestinal upset from tomato extract in sensitive individuals.
•No contraindications for common conditions, but those with tomato allergies should avoid due to Lyc-O-Mato® source.
