  • 94% of the 1,250 products that print an amount of lysine list more than its 25 mg of L-lysine hydrochloride (filed by NIH under lysine) (median 500 mg).

The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
