HelloPharmacist Scorecard of ModernBCAA+ by USPlabs
Four independent checks of what is known — a summary of the available information, not a grade of the product itself.
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
The stated purpose hasn't been mapped to our evidence data yet.
Why this rating?
- We haven't mapped this product's purpose to our evidence data yet — it'll be graded on the next content refresh.
Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.
Why this rating?
- The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 6 active ingredients.
- “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (6.33 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.
- “8:1:1 BCAA+ Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.
Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.
Why this rating?
- 1 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lysine.
- The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
- For scale: 1 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.
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 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.
