HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Phosphatidyl Serine by OL Olympian Labs

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 Sep 3, 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 supplement contains a single active ingredient: phosphatidylserine, a naturally occurring fat (lipid) that's part of cell membranes. The remaining ingredients — gelatin, glycerin, and water — are the capsule shell and its base; they're not active ingredients.

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

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

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Phosphatidylserine 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: Age-related cognitive decline — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Alzheimer disease — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Phosphatidylserine is possibly effective for age-related cognitive decline and Alzheimer disease based on the data we hold. For other uses like athletic performance, ADHD, general cognitive function, and other types of dementia, the evidence isn't established well enough for us to rate it.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Phosphatidylserine

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.

Phosphatidylserine is generally well tolerated in studies, though long-term safety hasn't been fully established. The most common side effects are flatulence, stomach upset, headache, insomnia, and nausea — with insomnia and gastrointestinal upset more likely at higher doses (600 mg and 200–300 mg/day, respectively).

The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding; there isn't enough information to know whether it's safe either way, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before considering it in those situations.

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 — Phosphatidylserine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 219 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.

Before taking phosphatidylserine, check if you're on anticholinergic drugs (medications that block acetylcholine) or cholinergic drugs (medications that increase acetylcholine). Both have documented Moderate-severity interactions with this supplement.

Your doctor or pharmacist can tell you whether it's safe to combine them.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Phosphatidylserine may help with age-related memory decline or Alzheimer disease, but it can interact with anticholinergic and cholinergic medications. If you take any prescription drugs that affect how your body uses acetylcholine, check them against this supplement before starting.

It's well tolerated for most people, but talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for your situation.
