What the Label Data Shows
L-Carnitine 500 mg is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a non-nutrient/non-botanical supplement built from 9 ingredients from Swanson Premium Brand, sold in tablet or pill form. These ingredients span 6 nutrient categories, mineral, other, non-nutrient/non-botanical, fatty acid, and 2 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.
Across a broader 9-ingredient formula, 9 of 9 carry no FDA reference-intake value, typical for a formula this size: larger blends tend to pull in botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds without an assigned Daily Value. Breadth like this isn't a red flag by itself.
Availability status shapes how this label record is best used. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2018-04-25. Off-market products are no longer being produced or distributed under this label, but the DSLD preserves their historical label data for researchers, consumers checking older bottles, and for tracking how formulations have evolved.
