Description

L-Lysine is an essential amino acid that plays a vital role as a building block of protein.* L-lysine is necessary for the production of all proteins in the body and is required to help maintain healthy collagen and elastin structure.* It is also a precursor to carnitine - an amino acid needed for metabolism and energy production.* L-lysine is not naturally produced by the body, therefore, it must be obtained through diet or supplementation.

Q: How big is this pill?

submitted by Jojorodo - 4 years ago
  • A: This is the worst designed pill I've ever taken. Take literally any other brand.

    submitted byTheBestVitaminTaker - 3 years ago
  • A: 1/2” diameter, 5/8” thick. About the size of Centrum pill in thickness, but Centrum is longer and narrower. It’s not huge as that one review may lead you to believe

    Good price. Helps with cold sores. Beware the pills are horse pills but most all lysine are. If you’re not afraid of taking pills you’ll be fine.

    Terrible awful HUGE & crumbly pill! Almost impossible to swallow & they crumble at the touch if stored in a weekly pill container. They get stuck in my throat & crumble instantly, making them a huge choking hazard!

    I’ve gotten cold sores my entire adult life, especially when under a lot of stress. I started taking two a day and it has drastically helped. Now pretty much the only time I get a cold sore is when I don’t take them for a dose or two.

    These are so hard to swallow, and they are crumbly and rough. I thought they may be chewable they were so impossible to take as a whole, I had to buy a pill cutter. Please reshape the pills and compress more for a smooth and comfortable swallow.

    - 8 months ago, Verified purchaser
    The price is nice, but the pills are huge and they have sharp edges, making them hard to swallow. Only took one of these pills, and it was hard to swallow. Decided to buy a 500mg bottle of them somewhere else; the new pills I got are smoother and much easier to swallow, I just take 2 instead of 1 since they are 500mg.

    momctzen - 10 months ago, Verified purchaser
    Wish I'd checked the reviews first. I take 6 supplements and this is the only one that gets stuck in my throat. It is incredibly difficult to swallow, will get stuck on the tongue if I'm not fast with a huge swig of water, and will still scratch its way down my throat unless I keep chugging water. Sometimes I think I should just chuck the bottle because it's a choke hazard at this point. I can swallow my other supplements 3 at a time with a single gulp of water.

    goodbye to cold sores

    - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
    I take this daily, and it has completely resolved my (prior) frequent cold sores. I haven't had one since starting to take it years ago. I ran out for a week, and sure enough, I felt another cold sore developing. Made a quick trip to the store and was able to minimize the size and duration of the cold sore. I won't run out again.

    The previous bottle I had were capsule shape and I had no issues. I’ve never had issues swallowing pills but I completely agree with others who say they’re hard to swallow. I will not be buying again after I get through this bottle, IF I can get through it.

    I know a lot of people dislike the size and shape of these pills, but they are so much easier to swallow than capsules, in my opinion. I cannot tolerate capsule pills, but I understand that every person is different. I will continue to buy them! They are great.
