HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Monolaurin (90% Concentration) by Samsara Herbs
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: monolaurin, a compound derived from lauric acid. Monolaurin is a naturally occurring substance found in foods like coconut oil and breast milk, and this formulation delivers it at a 90% concentration as a powder.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The effectiveness evidence for monolaurin for bacterial vaginosis — the condition listed in our data — is insufficient to rate. That means the science hasn't yet established whether it works for that purpose.
We hold no data on effectiveness claims for any other uses.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Monolaurin is often well tolerated in food-related amounts, but supplement safety in humans hasn't been well studied. During pregnancy, there isn't enough safety data, so it's best to avoid it.
While lauric acid occurs naturally in breast milk, the safety of taking monolaurin as a supplement while breastfeeding is unknown — talk with your doctor before using it if you're nursing. We have no data on common adverse effects from trials.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for monolaurin with any medication types. That said, check with your own pharmacist if you have questions about whether this product fits your personal medication regimen.
The bottom line

Formula
Description Samsara’s Monolaurin is 100% extracted from coconut meat or copra, unlike many others which are derived from inferior palm oil. Monolaurin also naturally occurs in breast milk and is considered a critical element in the development of a baby’s immune system. It is commonly sought after for its anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal effects. Our water soluble, premium grade herbal extracts, are best mixed in juice or a smoothie, although mixing in water is perfectly fine if you can tolerate the taste.
