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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Quick Brain Nootropic contains three active ingredients in each capsule. BaCognize Ultra is a bacopa extract, a traditional plant used in Ayurvedic medicine to support brain function.

Gotu kola whole plant extract is another botanical with a long history in Asian medicine. Lutemax 2020 is a proprietary ingredient we cannot detail without interaction data.

The capsule also contains several inactive ingredients—cellulose, modified food starch, microcrystalline cellulose, maltodextrin, tocopherol, and silica—which are standard fillers and binders.

Does it work?

Leans against
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
Leans against

The strongest graded evidence we hold for the stated purpose leans against a benefit.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Memory and cognitive support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment, Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Wound healing, Memory, Mental clarity — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Gotu Kola is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Cognitive function (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Gotu Kola is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Wound healing.
  • Also on file: Bacopa is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment.

The evidence for what this product can actually do is limited. For bacopa, the data we hold rates it insufficient to judge for Alzheimer's disease, cognitive function, ADHD, sexual dysfunction, back pain, and cognitive impairment—meaning studies haven't been robust enough to say whether it works or doesn't.

Gotu kola fares somewhat better: it's rated possibly effective for venous insufficiency (poor circulation in the legs) and burns, but possibly ineffective for cognitive function, and insufficient to judge for Alzheimer's and anxiety. We hold no effectiveness ratings for Lutemax 2020.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bacopa Gotu Kola

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Bacopa is generally well tolerated, though long-term safety data are sparse. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal: abdominal cramps, diarrhea, nausea, and dry mouth, affecting roughly 12 to 30 percent of people in trials.

Some have reported drowsiness, insomnia, headache, and vivid dreams. You should avoid bacopa in pregnancy and breastfeeding—there isn't enough safety data either way.

Gotu kola is also generally well tolerated short-term, with nausea and gastric irritation being the most common oral effects. Rare cases of liver toxicity have been reported, though whether gotu kola was the cause isn't certain.

Like bacopa, it's best avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Gotu Kola, Bacopa.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 1,193 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 your medications if you take drugs metabolized by CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 enzymes (a large group including many heart, blood pressure, cholesterol, and psychiatric medications). Also double-check if you're on cholinergic drugs, anticholinergic drugs, CNS depressants like benzodiazepines or sleep aids, cevimeline, thyroid hormone, or hepatotoxic drugs.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with graded evidence leaning against its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product combines two botanicals with a long traditional history but limited modern evidence for brain health. If you take any prescription medications—especially those metabolized by the liver, sedating drugs, or cholinergic medications—check them against this product's interactions first.

Avoid it in pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether it fits your health goals and current medications.

BaCognize Ultra8 drug types · 930 drugs

Anticholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use might decrease the effectiveness of both agents.
Bacopa seems to inhibit acetylcholinesterase and might increase acetylcholine levels, which could counteract the effects of anticholinergic drugs. Similarly, anticholinergic drugs might counteract the cholinergic effects of bacopa.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cevimeline (Evoxac)

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the effects and adverse effects of cevimeline.
In one case, a 58-year-old female taking cevimeline long-term for Sjogren syndrome experienced hyperhidrosis, malaise, nausea, and tachycardia shortly after taking a single dose of bacopa. Symptoms resolved after two days. Cevimeline is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 and CYP3A4, and researchers theorize that bacopa may have inhibited these isoenzymes. However, it is unclear if bacopa causes clinically significant inhibition of either CYP2D6 or CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use of bacopa with other cholinergic drugs might have additive effects.
Bacopa seems to inhibit acetylcholinesterase and might increase acetylcholine levels. Theoretically, this could result in additive cholinergic effects when used with cholinergic drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
Research on the effects of bacopa extracts on CYP1A2 enzymes is conflicting. Some in vitro evidence shows that bacopa extract can moderately and non-competitively inhibit CYP1A2, while other in vitro evidence suggests that any effect is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that bacopa extract can moderately and non-competitively inhibit CYP2C19 enzymes. It is not known whether this is clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2C9 substrates.
Research on the effect of bacopa extracts on CYP2C9 enzymes is conflicting. Some in vitro evidence suggests that bacopa extract can moderately and non-competitively inhibit CYP2C9, while other in vitro evidence suggests that any effect is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, bacopa might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
Research on the effects of bacopa extracts on CYP3A4 enzymes is conflicting. Some in vitro evidence suggests that bacopa extract can moderately and competitively inhibit CYP3A4, while other in vitro evidence suggests that any effect is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Theoretically, bacopa might have additive effects when used with thyroid hormone.
Animal research suggests that bacopa increases thyroxine (T4) levels in mice by about 40%.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
BaCognize Ultra full monograph & interactions

Gotu Kola Whole Plant Extract2 drug types · 579 drugs

Cns Depressants

Theoretically, taking gotu kola might increase the sedative effects of CNS depressants.
In vitro research suggests that gotu kola may have sedative effects via binding of GABA receptors.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking gotu kola with hepatotoxic drugs might have additive adverse effects.
There are at least four case reports of hepatotoxicity associated with the use of gotu kola. However, more information is needed to determine if gotu kola was the causative factor in these cases.

Quick Brain Nootropic by Life Extension: Common Questions

Does Quick Brain Nootropic by Life Extension interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Quick Brain Nootropic has a known interaction with 1,192 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Quick Brain Nootropic contains 3 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The safety data for bacopa aren't complete enough; the evidence advises against use in pregnancy. For gotu kola, safety data are also insufficient in pregnancy and breastfeeding, so it's best to avoid. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're considering this product.
What are the most common side effects?
Bacopa's main side effects are gastrointestinal—abdominal cramps, diarrhea, nausea, and dry mouth. Some people report drowsiness or headache. Gotu kola typically causes nausea or gastric irritation. Most people tolerate both ingredients, but if stomach upset happens, mention it to your pharmacist.
Does this actually help with memory or focus?
The evidence we hold isn't strong enough to say. Bacopa hasn't been rated for cognitive function or ADHD—the research just hasn't been robust enough yet. Gotu kola is actually rated possibly ineffective for cognitive function. If brain support is your goal, ask your pharmacist what the current evidence really shows.
Is there a risk of liver problems?
Gotu kola has a theoretical concern: rare case reports of liver toxicity. However, in one clinical trial at a standard dose (120 mg daily for 6 months), liver function didn't change. If you have liver disease or take other drugs that affect the liver, mention this product to your pharmacist before starting.
What is Lutemax 2020?
Lutemax 2020 is a proprietary ingredient in this formula. We don't hold interaction or safety data for it, so we can't tell you much beyond what the label says. If you have questions about what it is or why it's included, the manufacturer or your pharmacist may have more details.
