HelloPharmacist Scorecard of GABA 750 mg by AN Amazing Nutrition Amazing Formulas

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: GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a compound your brain naturally produces to help regulate nerve activity and promote relaxation. Each capsule delivers 750 mg.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — vegetable cellulose, silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate — which are fillers and binders that hold the capsule together.

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 — see Gamma-aminobutyric Acid (gaba)'s own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: GABA neurotransmitter support for brain and nerve function.
  • We looked for evidence on: Anxiety, Stress, Insomnia, Hypertension, Depression, Psychological well-being — and 3 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Gamma-aminobutyric Acid (gaba) is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Anxiety (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Gamma-aminobutyric Acid (gaba) is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Depression, Hypertension, Insomnia, Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and more.

The evidence for GABA isn't established yet. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for anxiety, ADHD, athletic performance, chronic bronchitis, or cerebral palsy.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the clinical studies so far haven't been robust enough to say one way or the other. If you're considering GABA for a specific reason, talk with your doctor about whether the research supports that use.

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.

GABA is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, though long-term safety hasn't been well studied. The most common side effects reported are drowsiness, upset stomach, mild throat burning, muscle weakness, and nausea.

One case reported a temporary stop in menstrual periods. Our safety data is limited, and there isn't enough information to recommend this product safely during pregnancy or while breastfeeding — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if either applies to you.

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Gamma-aminobutyric Acid (gaba).
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 419 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.

Double-check this product with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you use blood pressure-lowering medications — GABA may increase the risk of blood pressure dropping too low. Also verify it with them if you take central nervous system depressants like sedatives, sleep aids, or opioid pain medications, since additive effects are theoretically possible.

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.

GABA 750 mg may be worth considering if you're interested in relaxation support and have checked it with your own doctor or pharmacist. However, if you take blood pressure medications or central nervous system depressants, you'll want to verify it's safe for you first — the interactions are real, even if they're not always dramatic.

The evidence for what GABA actually does is still thin, and long-term safety data is sparse. Discuss this supplement with your healthcare provider before you start.

Formulation

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is an amino acid that occurs naturally in human brain and eyes, where it functions as a inhibitory neurotransmitter, which means it regulates brain and nerve cell activity by inhibiting the number of neurons firing in the brain. GABA is an all natural sleep aid that promotes calming and relaxing effect. It may also help to improve mood, ease nervous tension, reduce stress & anxiety, promote lean muscle growth, and relieve dull pain.

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking GABA with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some clinical research shows that GABA can decrease blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, GABA might have additive sedative effects when used in conjunction with CNS depressants. However, it is unclear if this concern is clinically relevant.
Endogenous GABA has well-established relaxant effects and GABA(A) receptors have an established physiological role in sleep. However, the effects of GABA supplements are unclear, as it is unknown whether exogenous GABA crosses the blood-brain barrier. Although there have been limited reports of drowsiness or tiredness with GABA supplements, these effects have not been widely reported in clinical studies. Additionally, intravenous GABA 0.1-1 mg/kg has been shown to induce anxiety in a dose-dependent manner.

GABA 750 mg by AN Amazing Nutrition Amazing Formulas: Common Questions

Does GABA 750 mg by AN Amazing Nutrition Amazing Formulas interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, GABA 750 mg has a known interaction with 419 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
GABA 750 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 GABA supposed to do?
GABA is a chemical your brain naturally makes to help calm nerve activity. The idea behind supplements is that extra GABA might support relaxation, but the clinical evidence showing that supplements actually work this way is currently insufficient — we don't have strong proof yet.
Is GABA safe to take long-term?
Short-term, GABA is generally well tolerated. However, long-term safety hasn't been well studied, so we don't know what happens if you take it for months or years. If you're thinking about using it regularly, check in with your doctor or pharmacist.
Can I take GABA if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety information to know either way. Our data advises against it while breastfeeding. If you're pregnant or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — they can give you personalized guidance.
What side effects does GABA cause?
The most common are drowsiness, stomach upset, mild throat burning, muscle weakness, and nausea. A thorough safety study hasn't been done, so other effects might occur. If you experience anything unusual, stop and let your doctor know.
Can I take GABA with my blood pressure medication?
Maybe, but not without checking first. GABA may add to the blood-pressure-lowering effect of your medication and cause your pressure to drop too low. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before combining them.
