Lysine
L-lysine is an essential amino acid and is one of the key building blocks of muscle tissue. Human body is not able to synthesize lysine hence it needs to be acquired through diet or pharmaceutical supplementation. Besides being essential for regular growth, this important amino acid participates in various vital biological processes like proteinogenesis, crosslinking of collagen polypeptides, uptake of essential mineral nutrients, and in the production of carnitine. Carnitine is established to play a crucial role in energy production by transporting long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria and generated toxic compounds out from the cell.
Some patented preparations to increase growth hormone in the body and for stimulating overall growth, cell repair and regeneration also used L-lysine HCl as a major component. Lysine is also been recognized as an important precursor for glutamate synthesis, which works as a neurotransmitter in the vertebrate nervous system.
L-lysine HCl can improve calcium absorption as well as improvise collagen quality, muscle well-being in general and has helped patients suffering from osteoporosis. It contributes to a positive calcium balance by boosting intestinal calcium absorption and improving the renal conservation of the absorbed calcium.
L-lysine HCl has also been suggested to be used in combination with minocycline hydrochloride, and metronidazole to treat reactive arthritis or bursitis. With common occurrence in young men and women, this disease can be caused by species of Shigella bacteria, species of Salmonella, genitourinary pathogens, Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhea, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Streptococcus pyogenes etc. L-lysine HCl alone or with other active pharma ingredients can be used to treat Herpes simplex I and II infections which are viral by origin.
Usage of L-lysine HCl independently as well as in compounded form has been reported for nephroprotection when radioactive therapy is conducted especially against cancer. The proximal tubular uptake of radionuclide in the renal pathway is inhibited temporarily due to intravenous infusion of concomitant amino acid like lysine protecting the kidney from the radio toxicity. Treatment with L-lysine HCl has also been reported to be well tolerated and showed a significant decrease in positive symptoms of schizophrenia.
Contraindications/Precautions
L-lysine is broken down in the liver and its supplementation needs an increased elimination of nitrogen from the body. Also, it is known to interference with urea cycle. Patients with impaired hepatic functionality or sensitivity to increase in blood ammonia concentrations are contraindicated for lysine.
Power Up • Stay Strong • Thrive
L‑Lysine is an essential amino acid that your body can’t make—so either you eat it, or you inject it (and we know where that goes). This muscular building block is key for protein synthesis, collagen strength, and helping your body absorb and hang onto vital minerals like calcium. Plus, it turns into carnitine, your internal fat-burner’s BFF—shuttling long-chain fatty acids into your mitochondria for next-level energy.
But wait, it gets juicier: L‑Lysine is your sidekick for calming cold sore flare‑ups (hello, less puckering), supports wound healing, and keeps your emotional baseline smoother—even when life throws curveballs.
On top of that, studies suggest it plays a role in promoting healthy blood pressure, supporting bone strength, and even helping with stress and anxiety.
What Makes It a B12 RX & MORE® favorite?
L‑Lysine is not just another supplement—it’s a powerhouse: builds muscle, supports collagen, helps absorption, energy production, immune health, and emotional resilience. You’re investing in a supplement that hustles just as hard as you do.
Heads-Up: In high doses, it might cause mild gut complaints or interfere with calcium and arginine absorption. If you’ve got liver or nitrogen-waste issues, this may not be your new best friend.
