HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Coenzymized DMAE 700 mg by Country Life

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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Dimethylaminoethanol Bitartrate” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (700 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This capsule contains three active ingredients: Dimethylaminoethanol Bitartrate (the "coenzymized DMAE" in the name), Pantothenic Acid (also called vitamin B5), and Vitamin B6. The product also contains a few inactive ingredients — cellulose, magnesium stearate, and silica — that help form and stabilize the capsule.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: brain health and memory support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Age-related cognitive decline, Alzheimer disease, Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Cognitive function, mental clarity, focus — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Vitamin B6 is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Age-related cognitive decline (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin B6 is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Alzheimer disease.
  • Also on file: Deanol is rated "Likely Ineffective" for Alzheimer disease.

The evidence for what these ingredients actually do is mixed. Pantothenic acid is effective for treating pantothenic acid deficiency, and vitamin B6 is effective for B6 deficiency and certain forms of anemia.

Vitamin B6 is possibly effective for nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. Beyond those uses, the evidence isn't strong — B6 is only likely effective for elevated homocysteine levels.

For 2-dimethylaminoethanol, the data we have suggests it's likely ineffective for Alzheimer's disease and tardive dyskinesia, and there's insufficient evidence for other claims like ADHD support or anti-aging skin effects.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Deanol Pantothenic Acid Vitamin B6

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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Pantothenic acid is generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses; the main caution is not to take very high doses without medical guidance. Vitamin B6 is safe in doses below 100 mg daily, but very high doses over time can damage nerves (sensory neuropathy).

Diarrhea has been reported with pantothenic acid, and vitamin B6 can cause headache, nausea, and abdominal pain at lower doses. Deanol may cause gastrointestinal upset, drowsiness, headache, or mood changes; safety data is limited.

For pregnancy, pantothenic acid and vitamin B6 are likely safe, though vitamin B6 carries one "possibly unsafe" rating for pregnancy, so talk with your doctor. Deanol's safety in pregnancy and lactation is not established — avoid it while breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

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?
  • 2 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Deanol, Vitamin B6.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: Parkinson's medications.
  • For scale: 414 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.

If you take seizure medications (phenytoin or phenobarbital), blood pressure drugs, the heart medication amiodarone, anticholinergic drugs, or cholinergic drugs, double-check this product with your pharmacist before you start. No interactions are documented for pantothenic acid, the one ingredient we could fully check for that drug type.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product might make sense if you're looking to address a B vitamin deficiency, but for most people the evidence that deanol or high-dose B vitamins prevent aging or boost memory is weak. If you take seizure medications, blood pressure drugs, amiodarone, or medications that affect nerve signaling, check with your pharmacist first.

Anyone pregnant or breastfeeding should discuss this with their doctor before starting.

Vitamin B65 drug types · 210 drugs

Amiodarone (Cordarone)

Theoretically, vitamin B6 might increase the photosensitivity caused by amiodarone.
Despite initial case reports suggesting that pyridoxine may have a protective effect against amiodarone-induced photosensitivity, preliminary clinical research suggests that pyridoxine may actually exacerbate this adverse effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, vitamin B6 may have additive effects when used with antihypertensive drugs.
Research in hypertensive rats shows that vitamin B6 can decrease systolic blood pressure. Similarly, clinical research in patients with hypertension shows that taking high doses of vitamin B6 may reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure, possibly by reducing plasma levels of epinephrine and norepinephrine.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Phenobarbital (Luminal)

High doses of vitamin B6 may reduce the levels and clinical effects of phenobarbital.
Preliminary clinical evidence suggests that vitamin B6 200 mg daily can reduce plasma levels of phenobarbital, possibly by increasing metabolism. It is not known whether lower doses have any effect. Advise people taking phenobarbital to avoid high doses of vitamin B6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenytoin (Dilantin)

High doses of vitamin B6 may reduce the levels and clinical effects of phenytoin.
Preliminary clinical evidence suggests that vitamin B6 200 mg daily can reduce plasma levels of phenytoin, possibly by increasing metabolism. It is not known whether lower doses have any effect. Advise people taking phenytoin to avoid high doses of vitamin B6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levodopa

Vitamin B6 may increase the metabolism of levodopa when taken alone, but not when taken in conjunction with carbidopa.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) enhances the metabolism of levodopa, reducing its clinical effects. However, this interaction does not occur when carbidopa is used concurrently with levodopa (Sinemet). Therefore, it is not likely to be a problem in most people.

Coenzymized DMAE 700 mg by Country Life: Common Questions

Does Coenzymized DMAE 700 mg by Country Life interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Coenzymized DMAE 700 mg has a known interaction with 414 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Coenzymized DMAE 700 mg contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
What is DMAE, and what's it supposed to do?
DMAE (2-dimethylaminoethanol) is thought to boost acetylcholine, a brain chemical. The research we have suggests it's likely ineffective for Alzheimer's disease and movement disorders, and there's not enough evidence to know whether it helps with focus, athletic performance, or aging skin.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
Pantothenic acid and vitamin B6 are likely safe in pregnancy, though vitamin B6 has one rating suggesting it could be unsafe, so speak with your doctor first. We don't have enough safety data on deanol in pregnancy — ask your doctor or pharmacist before using it.
What are the most common side effects?
Vitamin B6 can cause headache, nausea, and abdominal pain. Deanol may cause abdominal cramps, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or drowsiness. Pantothenic acid is generally well tolerated but can cause diarrhea in some people.
Is this safe to take long-term?
The amounts in this product are modest, but vitamin B6 can harm nerves if you take very high doses for extended periods. Deanol's long-term safety is not well established. Stick to normal doses, and if you're thinking of using this for months, check in with your pharmacist.
Will this help with memory or focus?
The evidence doesn't support that. Deanol is likely ineffective for Alzheimer's disease, and there's insufficient evidence it helps with attention or focus. If memory loss is a real concern, talk with your doctor about what's actually proven.
