HelloPharmacist Scorecard of L-Lysine 1,000 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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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.
  • “L-Lysine” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product has 3 active ingredients. The main ingredient is L-lysine hydrochloride (the form of lysine used here), an amino acid your body needs for protein building and immune function.

It also contains vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), a B vitamin that helps your body use the amino acids you eat and supports nerve and brain health. The remaining ingredients are inactive — fillers and binders like cellulose, silica, and guar gum that help hold the tablet together.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: supports collagen structure and function.
  • We looked for evidence on: Herpes labialis (cold sores), Canker sores, Skin health, Collagen formation, Wound healing.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lysine is rated "Possibly Effective" for Herpes labialis (cold sores) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lysine is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Canker sores.

L-lysine is possibly effective for cold sores (herpes labialis) based on available evidence. For other uses like child growth, pressure ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers, the evidence isn't established well enough for us to rate it.

Vitamin B6 in this product is effective for sideroblastic anemia and vitamin B6 deficiency, likely effective for high homocysteine levels, and possibly effective for pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting, though pregnancy use should only happen under a doctor's supervision.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B6 Lysine

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Vitamin B6 is well tolerated at doses under 100 mg daily, but this product contains a higher amount. High doses of B6 over time can damage nerves (sensory neuropathy), especially above 1,000 mg daily or with very high total lifetime doses — though neuropathy can occur even at lower doses.

L-lysine is generally well tolerated, though it may cause stomach upset, abdominal pain, or diarrhea in some people. Long-term safety of lysine supplements isn't well studied.

For pregnancy, lysine supplement safety hasn't been well studied, so check with your doctor first. For breastfeeding, there isn't enough reliable information, so caution is advised.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B6 Lysine

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 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lysine, Vitamin B6.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: Parkinson's medications.
  • For scale: 211 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 before starting if you take blood pressure medication, the heart drug amiodarone, or seizure medications like phenobarbital or phenytoin — all Moderate-severity interactions with the vitamin B6 inside. Also mention it if you take levodopa for Parkinson's (Minor interaction, though it may not apply if you're on Sinemet).

And let your pharmacist know if you're on any 5-HT4 agonist for digestive issues.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may help with cold sores, and the vitamin B6 inside has solid evidence for certain deficiencies and possibly for pregnancy nausea. But the dose of B6 here is on the higher side — if you take it long-term, talk to your pharmacist about nerve risk.

Anyone on blood pressure medication, seizure drugs, or an amiodarone-based heart rhythm drug should double-check with their pharmacist or 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.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Vitamin B6 full monograph & interactions

L-Lysine1 drug type · 1 drug

5-Ht4 Agonists

Theoretically, lysine may reduce the effects of 5-HT4 agonists.
Animal research suggests that L-lysine is a partial serotonin receptor 4 (5-HT4) antagonist and inhibits diarrhea induced by the 5-HT4 agonist, 5-hydroxytryptophane.

L-Lysine 1,000 mg by Country Life: Common Questions

Does L-Lysine 1,000 mg by Country Life interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, L-Lysine 1,000 mg has a known interaction with 211 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
L-Lysine 1,000 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.
Is L-lysine safe to take while pregnant?
Lysine supplement safety during pregnancy hasn't been well studied. Lysine from food is fine, but before taking a supplement, talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they can weigh the benefit against any unknown risks and give you personalized advice.
Will this product help my cold sores?
L-lysine is possibly effective for cold sores based on available research. Results vary from person to person, so you may want to try it and see if it helps you, but don't expect guaranteed results.
What are the most common side effects?
At normal doses, lysine commonly causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, and heartburn. Vitamin B6 at normal doses can cause headache, nausea, loss of appetite, and vomiting. Most people tolerate these ingredients well, though.
Is it safe to take this long-term?
Long-term safety of L-lysine supplements isn't well studied. Vitamin B6 at high doses over time can damage nerves, especially at very high daily or lifetime totals. For long-term use, ask your pharmacist whether this dose is right for you.
Can I take this if I'm breastfeeding?
There isn't enough reliable information on lysine supplement use while breastfeeding, so caution is advised. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance before taking it.
