HelloPharmacist Scorecard of D-Mannose 1500 mg by Mental Refreshment

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: D-mannose, a naturally occurring simple sugar. The capsule also holds gelatin and rice powder as inactive ingredients that help hold the formula together.

Does it work?

Leans against
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
Leans against

The strongest graded evidence we hold for the stated purpose leans against a benefit.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: supports urinary tract and liver and intestinal health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Urinary tract infections (UTIs), urinary tract health, liver function, intestinal health.
  • The closest evidence on file: D-mannose is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Urinary tract infections (UTIs) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence here is mixed. D-mannose is likely effective for carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type 1b, a rare genetic condition affecting how your body makes certain proteins.

For urinary tract infections (UTIs), though, the data suggests it's possibly ineffective — meaning the evidence doesn't support it as a reliable treatment for that use.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient D-mannose

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.

D-mannose is generally well tolerated in the short term, but we don't have strong long-term safety data, so talk with your doctor before taking it long-term. The most common side effects are bloating, diarrhea, and nausea.

Diarrhea is more likely if you take a single dose over about 15 grams. There isn't enough reliable safety data in pregnancy, so it's best to avoid it unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Safety while breastfeeding hasn't been well studied, so caution is advised — check with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient D-mannose

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented in our data for D-mannose. That said, mention this product to your pharmacist when you pick up any new prescriptions — it's always good to double-check.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with graded evidence leaning against its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

D-Mannose 1500 mg may be worth considering if your doctor has prescribed it for carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type 1b. If you're taking it for UTI prevention or treatment, the evidence doesn't support that use.

Anyone pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking regular medications should talk with their doctor or pharmacist before starting.
