HelloPharmacist Scorecard of MSM 750 Methylsulfonylmethane by NutriCology

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

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product has 2 active ingredients. Molybdenum is a mineral that your body needs in tiny amounts for normal enzyme function and metabolism.

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is an organic compound containing sulfur. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, and L-leucine.

Does it work?

Strong 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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Molybdenum's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Molybdenum for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Molybdenum deficiency — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Molybdenum is likely effective for treating molybdenum deficiency. For other uses — acne, iron deficiency anemia, asthma, osteoporosis, and esophageal cancer — the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate its effectiveness.

We have no effectiveness data on file for methylsulfonylmethane.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Molybdenum

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Molybdenum is generally well tolerated when taken in amounts that don't exceed the upper safe limit of 2 mg per day. High-dose supplements can cause serious problems and are rarely needed.

One case report documented severe toxicity (hallucinations, seizures, brain damage) from very high doses taken over a short period, though this is extremely rare. During pregnancy, dietary amounts and prenatal vitamins appear likely safe, but high-dose supplements should be avoided without medical advice.

Lactation safety data shows molybdenum likely safe. We have no safety data on file for methylsulfonylmethane.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Molybdenum

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check. That said, we hold no interaction data for methylsulfonylmethane, so ask your doctor or pharmacist to review your full medication list before you start.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may be worth considering if you have a documented molybdenum deficiency, but high-dose molybdenum supplements aren't usually necessary. Since we have no interaction data for one of the two active ingredients, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you take regular medications.

Stay well below the 2 mg daily upper limit.

MSM 750 Methylsulfonylmethane by NutriCology: Common Questions

Does MSM 750 Methylsulfonylmethane by NutriCology interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in MSM 750 Methylsulfonylmethane. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
MSM 750 Methylsulfonylmethane contains 2 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 molybdenum safe to take every day?
Molybdenum is generally well tolerated when you don't exceed 2 mg per day. This product is 750 micrograms per capsule — well below that limit. Stick to the label dose and you should be fine, but check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're taking other supplements that also contain molybdenum.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
For molybdenum, dietary amounts and amounts in prenatal vitamins appear likely safe in pregnancy, but high-dose supplements should be avoided without medical advice — talk to your doctor before starting. During lactation, molybdenum appears likely safe. We have no safety data for methylsulfonylmethane in pregnancy or breastfeeding, so discuss it with your doctor or midwife.
What does molybdenum actually do in my body?
Molybdenum is a mineral your body needs in very small amounts to activate certain enzymes that help with metabolism and other normal processes. You get some from food, so deficiency is rare — but this supplement can help if you're genuinely short on it.
Will this help my acne or joint pain?
For acne, asthma, and osteoporosis, the evidence we hold is insufficient to say whether molybdenum helps. We also have no effectiveness data on file for methylsulfonylmethane. Your doctor can help you figure out whether this is the right choice for what you're dealing with.
Are there any fillers or extra stuff in this capsule?
The active ingredients are molybdenum and methylsulfonylmethane. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (a capsule binder), microcrystalline cellulose, and L-leucine.
