HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Green MAGnitude by Controlled Labs
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.
What’s inside
Partial disclosure
Green MAGnitude contains 5 active ingredients: L-Tyrosine (an amino acid that your body uses to make neurotransmitters and thyroid hormones), L-Taurine (an amino acid involved in heart and brain function), Betaine Anhydrous (a compound that helps your body manage homocysteine levels), and a creatine blend called Green Creatine Matrix, which includes Magnesium Creatine Chelate and 2CM Dicreatine Malate (both forms of creatine, used to support muscle energy and performance). The powder also contains inactive ingredients—flavoring, malic acid, acesulfame potassium, silicon dioxide, and sucralose—that help with taste and texture.
Does it work?
Leans against
L-Tyrosine is effective for phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare metabolic condition, and possibly effective for cognitive function and memory. It's possibly ineffective for athletic performance, and the evidence isn't established for alcohol use disorder or dementia.
L-Taurine is possibly effective for hepatitis and congestive heart failure but possibly ineffective for obesity. Betaine Anhydrous is effective for homocystinuria and possibly effective for elevated homocysteine, though the evidence isn't established for nonalcoholic fatty liver, colorectal adenoma, depression, or reflux.
Magnesium (from the creatine chelate) is effective for indigestion and constipation and for treating low magnesium levels and pre-eclampsia in pregnancy. The evidence for creatine itself isn't included in the data we hold for this product.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
L-Tyrosine is generally well tolerated in healthy adults but talk to your doctor before regular use. The most common side effects are fatigue, headache, heartburn, and nausea.
L-Taurine is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, though long-term safety is less certain; common side effects include constipation, diarrhea, and indigestion. Rare hypersensitivity reactions have been reported, especially in people with a history of allergies to sulfites or sulfonamides.
Betaine Anhydrous is generally well tolerated; common side effects are body odor, diarrhea, elevated cholesterol, stomach distress, nausea, and vomiting. Magnesium is generally well tolerated and generally safe at recommended amounts; side effects are mostly gastrointestinal (diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, stomach irritation).
There is not enough safety data on L-Tyrosine and Betaine Anhydrous during pregnancy and lactation, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. L-Taurine is likely safe in pregnancy and lactation.
Magnesium is likely safe in pregnancy but possibly unsafe at very high doses; normal dietary amounts are fine during breastfeeding, but talk with your doctor before taking a supplement.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take levodopa/carbidopa for Parkinson's disease (Major interaction). Also check if you take blood pressure medications, muscle relaxants, lithium, potassium-sparing water pills, calcium channel blockers for high blood pressure, acid-reducing medications, diabetes pills (sulfonylureas), quinolone antibiotics, or bisphosphonates — all Moderate interactions.
L-Tyrosine also interacts with thyroid hormone medications.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with graded evidence leaning against its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Green MAGnitude is a multi-ingredient supplement aimed at muscle performance and overall support. If you take levodopa for Parkinson's, blood pressure medications, muscle relaxants, lithium, diabetes pills, quinolone antibiotics, bisphosphonates, or thyroid hormones, you need to check with your own doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — the interactions are real and could affect how your medications work.
Even without those medications, mention it to your healthcare provider if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have heart, kidney, or blood pressure concerns.

Green MAGnitude by Controlled Labs Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Green MAGnitude by Controlled Labs has documented interactions through its L-Tyrosine, L-Taurine, and Magnesium Creatine Chelate content.
The most serious interaction is Magnesium's Major-severity effect with levodopa/carbidopa (Sinemet), a Parkinson's medication — magnesium can reduce levodopa levels by up to 35%, potentially cutting its effectiveness.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
L-Tyrosine poses Moderate-severity interactions with levodopa (competing for absorption in the gut) and thyroid hormone medications (potentially raising thyroid hormone levels). L-Taurine can increase the risk of low blood pressure (hypotension) when combined with blood pressure medications and may raise lithium levels in people taking it for bipolar disorder.
Magnesium also interacts Moderately with muscle relaxants (strengthening and prolonging their effects), potassium-sparing water pills (raising magnesium levels), calcium channel blockers used for high blood pressure (risk of very low blood pressure), acid-reducing medications, diabetes pills (sulfonylureas — raising low blood sugar risk), quinolone antibiotics (reducing their absorption), and bisphosphonates used for bone health (lowering their absorption).
Betaine Anhydrous was checked and has no interactions documented in our data. We could not check 2CM Dicreatine Malate — we hold no data for it.

For each ingredient in Green MAGnitude with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Magnesium Creatine Chelate
Levodopa/Carbidopa (Sinemet)
Magnesium can reduce the bioavailability of levodopa/carbidopa.
Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that taking magnesium oxide 1000 mg with levodopa 100 mg/carbidopa 10 mg reduces the area under the curve (AUC) of levodopa by 35% and of carbidopa by 81%. In vitro and animal research shows that magnesium produces an alkaline environment in the digestive tract, which might lead to degradation and reduced bioavailability of levodopa/carbidopa.
Aminoglycoside Antibiotics
Concomitant use of aminoglycoside antibiotics and magnesium can increase the risk for neuromuscular weakness.
Both aminoglycosides and magnesium reduce presynaptic acetylcholine release, which can lead to neuromuscular blockade and possible paralysis. This is most likely to occur with high doses of magnesium given intravenously.
Antacids
Use of acid reducers may reduce the laxative effect of magnesium oxide.
A retrospective analysis shows that, in the presence of H2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), a higher dose of magnesium oxide is needed for a laxative effect. This may also occur with antacids. Under acidic conditions, magnesium oxide is converted to magnesium chloride and then to magnesium bicarbonate, which has an osmotic laxative effect. By reducing acidity, antacids may reduce the conversion of magnesium oxide to the active bicarbonate salt.
Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide (Biktarvy)
Magnesium might decrease levels of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide by reducing its absorption.
Advise patients that bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide should be taken at least 2 hours before or 6 hours after magnesium containing products.
Bisphosphonates
Magnesium can decrease absorption of bisphosphonates.
Cations, including magnesium, can decrease bisphosphonate absorption. Advise patients to separate doses of magnesium and these drugs by at least 2 hours.
Calcium Channel Blockers
Magnesium can have additive effects with calcium channel blockers, although evidence is conflicting.
Magnesium inhibits calcium entry into smooth muscle cells and may therefore have additive effects with calcium channel blockers. Severe hypotension and neuromuscular blockades may occur when nifedipine is used with intravenous magnesium, although some contradictory evidence suggests that concurrent use of magnesium with nifedipine does not increase the risk of neuromuscular weakness. High doses of magnesium could theoretically have additive effects with other calcium channel blockers.
Digoxin
Magnesium salts may reduce absorption of digoxin.
Clinical evidence suggests that treatment with oral magnesium hydroxide or magnesium trisilicate reduces absorption of digoxin from the intestines. This may reduce the blood levels of digoxin and decrease its therapeutic effects.
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics
Potassium-sparing diuretics decrease excretion of magnesium, possibly increasing magnesium levels.
Potassium-sparing diuretics also have magnesium-sparing properties, which can counteract the magnesium losses associated with loop and thiazide diuretics. Theoretically, increased magnesium levels could result from concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics and magnesium supplements.
Quinolone Antibiotics
Magnesium decreases absorption of quinolones.
Magnesium can form insoluble complexes with quinolones and decrease their absorption. Advise patients to take these drugs at least 2 hours before, or 4 to 6 hours after, magnesium supplements.
Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
Parenteral magnesium alters the pharmacokinetics of skeletal muscle relaxants, increasing their effects and accelerating the onset of effect.
Parenteral magnesium shortens the time to onset of skeletal muscle relaxants by about 1 minute and prolongs the duration of action by about 2 minutes. Magnesium potentiates the effects of skeletal muscle relaxants by decreasing calcium-mediated release of acetylcholine from presynaptic nerve terminals, reducing postsynaptic sensitivity to acetylcholine, and having a direct effect on the membrane potential of myocytes. Magnesium also has vasodilatory actions and increases cardiac output, allowing a greater amount of muscle relaxant to reach the motor end plate. A clinical study found that low-dose rocuronium (0.45 mg/kg), when given after administration of magnesium 30 mg/kg over 10 minutes, has an accelerated onset of effect, which matches the onset of effect seen with a full-dose rocuronium regimen (0.6 mg/kg). In another clinical study, onset times for rocuronium doses of 0.3, 0.6, and 1.2 mg/kg were 86, 76, and 50 seconds, respectively, when given alone, but were reduced to 66, 44, and 38 seconds, respectively, when the doses were given after a 15-minute infusion of magnesium sulfate 60 mg/kg. Giving intraoperative intravenous magnesium sulfate, 50 mg/kg loading dose followed by 15 mg/kg/hour, reduces the onset time of rocuronium, enhances its clinical effects, reduces the dose of intraoperative opiates, and prolongs the spontaneous recovery time. It does not affect the activity of subsequently administered neostigmine.
Sulfonylureas
Magnesium increases the systemic absorption of sulfonylureas, increasing their effects and side effects.
Clinical research shows that administration of magnesium hydroxide with glyburide increases glyburide absorption, increases maximal insulin response by 35-fold, and increases the risk of hypoglycemia, when compared with glyburide alone. A similar interaction occurs between magnesium hydroxide and glipizide. The mechanism of this effect appears to be related to the elevation of gastrointestinal pH by magnesium-based antacids, increasing solubility and enhancing absorption of sulfonylureas.
Tetracycline Antibiotics
Magnesium decreases absorption of tetracyclines.
Magnesium can form insoluble complexes with tetracyclines in the gut and decrease their absorption and antibacterial activity. Advise patients to take these drugs 1 hour before or 2 hours after magnesium supplements.
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, magnesium may have antiplatelet effects, but the evidence is conflicting.
In vitro evidence shows that magnesium sulfate inhibits platelet aggregation, even at low concentrations. Some preliminary clinical evidence shows that infusion of magnesium sulfate increases bleeding time by 48% and reduces platelet activity. However, other clinical research shows that magnesium does not affect platelet aggregation, although inhibition of platelet-dependent thrombosis can occur.
Gabapentin (Neurontin)
Gabapentin absorption can be decreased by magnesium.
Clinical research shows that giving magnesium oxide orally along with gabapentin decreases the maximum plasma concentration of gabapentin by 33%, time to maximum concentration by 36%, and area under the curve by 43%. Advise patients to take gabapentin at least 2 hours before, or 4 to 6 hours after, magnesium supplements.
Sevelamer (Renagel, Renvela)
Sevelamer may increase serum magnesium levels.
In patients on hemodialysis, sevelamer use was associated with a 0.28 mg/dL increase in serum magnesium. The mechanism of this interaction remains unclear.
L-Taurine
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, taurine might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Some clinical evidence suggests that taurine can reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Lithium
Theoretically, taurine might reduce excretion and increase plasma levels of lithium.
Taurine is thought to have diuretic properties, which might reduce the excretion of lithium.
L-Tyrosine
Levodopa
Theoretically, tyrosine might decrease the effectiveness of levodopa.
Tyrosine and levodopa compete for absorption in the proximal duodenum by the large neutral amino acid (LNAA) transport system. Advise patients to separate doses of tyrosine and levodopa by at least 2 hours.
Thyroid Hormone
Theoretically, tyrosine might have additive effects with thyroid hormone medications.
Tyrosine is a precursor to thyroxine and might increase levels of thyroid hormones.
