HelloPharmacist Scorecard of P-E-A 1200 mg by SuperSmart

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product has one active ingredient: palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a fatty acid compound your body makes naturally. It's included as OptiPEA.

The capsule also contains acacia gum as an inactive ingredient.

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: Chronic pain and nerve pain support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Chronic prostatitis and chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS), Complex regional pain syndrome, Diabetic neuropathy, Fibromyalgia, Migraine headache, Neuropathic pain — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Palmitoylethanolamide (pea) is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoarthritis (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Palmitoylethanolamide (pea) is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Migraine headache, Diabetic neuropathy, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathic pain, and more.

The evidence for PEA is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for osteoarthritis, meaning some data suggest it may help.

For migraine headache, carpal tunnel syndrome, autism spectrum disorder, and cannabis use disorder, we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate it either way. It's rated possibly ineffective for spinal cord injury.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Palmitoylethanolamide (pea)

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.

PEA is generally well tolerated in studies, but long-term safety data are limited. The most common side effect reported when taken by mouth is nausea, which has been mild and temporary when it occurs.

Avoid use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding — there isn't enough safety information either way.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
