HelloPharmacist Scorecard of L-Serine 500 mg Capsules by BulkSupplements.com
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
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: L-serine, an amino acid at 500 mg per capsule. The capsule itself is made of gelatin.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
L-serine is possibly effective for schizophrenia based on the evidence we have. For Alzheimer disease, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or Lou Gehrig's disease), back pain, PTSD, and cognitive function, the evidence isn't established—we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works for those uses.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
L-serine from food is generally well tolerated, but the safety profile of long-term supplement use isn't well established. The most common side effects in medicinal doses are gastrointestinal—abdominal pain, bloating, indigestion, loss of appetite, and nausea.
These effects appear to depend on the dose. At very high doses (more than about 25 grams daily), rare serious effects like seizures and reversible eye movement problems have been reported.
There isn't enough safety data to know whether L-serine is safe in pregnancy, so the safety data advises against it unless your doctor tells you otherwise. Safety during breastfeeding hasn't been studied either—avoid supplements unless your doctor directs you to take it.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented for L-serine in our data.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
L-serine may be worth considering if you're looking into options for schizophrenia, though talk to your doctor about how it fits into your care plan. If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting—the safety data isn't there yet.
At standard doses it's generally well tolerated, but very high doses can cause stomach trouble and, rarely, serious effects.
