HelloPharmacist Scorecard of PEA 150 mg 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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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 contains one active ingredient: phenethylamine hydrochloride (also called PEA), a compound naturally found in small amounts in the body and certain foods. There are no inactive ingredients listed.

Does it work?

Not established
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
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Phenethylamine (pea)'s own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: mood support and focus.
  • We looked for evidence on: Depression, cognitive function, mental clarity, energy.
  • The closest evidence on file: Phenethylamine (pea) is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Depression (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for phenethylamine's effectiveness isn't established in the data we hold. For athletic performance, depression, and obesity—the conditions studied—the monograph rates the evidence as insufficient, meaning there isn't enough reliable research to say whether it works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Phenethylamine (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.

Phenethylamine may affect your heart rate and blood pressure, and human safety data for supplements is limited. A small number of case reports describe anxiety and agitation, and one case of rapid heart rate (tachycardia), though it wasn't clear whether phenethylamine alone or other ingredients in those products caused the problems.

For pregnancy and breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety information; the data advises against use in both situations. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing before taking this product.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Phenethylamine (pea)

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Phenethylamine (pea).
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 187 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.

Check with your pharmacist or doctor before using this product if you take serotonergic drugs (Moderate risk)—that includes SSRIs, SNRIs, tricyclic antidepressants, tramadol, and some migraine or pain treatments. Do not use this product if you take an MAOI (Moderate risk).

Altogether, these interactions span 187 individual medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

PEA may interest those curious about mood or athletic performance, but the evidence doesn't establish that it works. If you take any serotonergic medication (most antidepressants, some pain or migraine drugs) or an MAOI, this product is not for you.

Phenylethylamine Hydrochloride2 drug types · 187 drugs

Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (Maois)

Theoretically, taking phenethylamine concomitantly with MAOIs may increase adverse effects.
In humans, phenethylamine is oxidized by MAO-B to form the inactive metabolite phenylacetic acid. Animal research shows that administering an MAOI prior to phenethylamine increases the amphetamine-like effects of phenethylamine. However, low-quality clinical research has used phenethylamine with selegiline, an MAOI, with apparent safety.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Serotonergic Drugs

Theoretically, combining serotonergic drugs with phenethylamine might increase the risk of serotonergic adverse effects.
Animal research shows that phenethylamine increases levels of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. Theoretically, combining serotonergic drugs with phenethylamine might increase the risk of additive serotonergic adverse effects, including serotonin syndrome and cerebral vasoconstrictive disorders. However, low-quality clinical research has used phenethylamine with selegiline, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), with apparent safety.
