Two of the exclusions on this page are about the heart, and they come from the ingredient with the largest printed amount.
Memocept is for adults over 18 who want a simple once-daily capsule with a fully disclosed label.
Anyone who has had a heart attack, takes nitrates, blood pressure or other prescription medication, or is pregnant, nursing or under 18 should avoid it or speak with a clinician first.
See the safety cautions for details.
That is the honest case for reading this site, and it is the reason the page exists. Two labels came in one asset pack under one product name. We have published both panels, both distributor blocks and both sets of front-panel claims side by side, so that whichever wrap arrives you can check it against what you were shown.
One capsule, daily. Thirty in a bottle, so a printed bottle is thirty days with no arithmetic. Both labels agree on this, word for word, and it is the cleanest thing about the product.
Some people are. If a stimulant blend is what you are shopping for and you are not counting milligrams, the teal formula is a caffeine-led nootropic stack of a familiar kind. The FDA's 400 mg a day figure is the number to keep in mind alongside whatever coffee you already drink.
Both labels name the capsule as hypromellose rather than leaving it to be guessed at. The teal label's other excipients are rice flour, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide; the purple label's are vegetable stearate and silicon dioxide.
A US order desk on +1 (507) 448-8190, an office and a returns address in New York, an order email and a website email. That is more contact detail than most products in this category publish, and the same number is printed on one of the two bottles.
Thirty capsules is thirty days on the printed label, and the guarantee is sixty, so one bottle finishes with the window still half open. As trial arrangements go, that one is clean.
On the teal label you cannot. Seven ingredients share one number. Every figure this site prints for them is a ceiling derived from the order they are listed in, and not one of them has a floor. Caffeine is first by weight and could be anything from a trace to the whole 151 mg.
Caffeine leads the blend and no amount is printed. The FDA puts a 12-fluid-ounce cup of brewed coffee at 113 to 247 mg and 400 mg a day as the figure not generally associated with negative effects in healthy adults. You cannot add an unprinted number to your day.
The huperzine A monograph is direct: “Concomitant use of huperzine A with cholinesterase inhibitors could lead to potentiation of adverse reactions.” Those drugs are prescribed for Alzheimer's disease — which is to say, to some of the people a memory supplement is marketed at. The label's caution panel names no medicine at all.
NCCIH records that interactions between rhodiola and losartan have been reported. Rhodiola is sixth of seven in the blend, so at most 25.2 mg, but 'at most' is not 'none', and the label gives a clinician nothing to work with.
Bacopa's ceiling is 30.2 mg against trials that typically used 300 to 450 mg a day for twelve weeks. Tyrosine's is 75.5 mg against an over-the-counter range starting at 500 mg. And on rhodiola, NCCIH says there is not enough reliable evidence to determine whether it is useful for any health-related purpose.
They do not. The written brief lists six amino-acid-panel ingredients; the photography shows green coffee, bacopa, rhodiola and huperzia from the other panel. No ingredient appears in both.
Both labels say so in their own caution panels, and the brief says adults 18 and over. On a caffeine-led formula this is not a formality.
There is no published human trial on either one, and none is claimed. Every comparison on this site is against research on single ingredients, at doses this bottle does not reach — with the one exception of huperzine A, where the ceiling lands inside the studied range.
Nothing you answer leaves your browser. Two of the five are about the heart, and that is deliberate.

This is the strongest caution on this site, and it is not on the label.
The largest single amount on this panel is L-arginine, 200 mg of base plus 200 mg of the AKG extract. It is also the ingredient our sources have the most to say about, and not all of it is about dose.
The professional monograph we read states plainly: “L-arginine is not recommended following acute myocardial infarction.” It gives the reason: one trial was terminated early because “8.6% of patients in the L-arginine group died, while no deaths occurred in the control group.”
The same source adds: “Caution is warranted in patients concomitantly using L-arginine supplementation and nitrates,” because arginine may potentiate the effects of nitroglycerin and similar medicines. Its effects on insulin and cholesterol-lowering drugs are described as unpredictable, and hypotension may occur because arginine is a vasodilator.
Now the part that makes this page unusual for this desk. On every other product we have reviewed, a caution like that would run into the same wall: and nobody can tell you how much is in the capsule. Here we can. Four hundred milligrams, printed on the bottle, countable by anyone.
That cuts both ways and we should say so. Four hundred milligrams is a long way below the 6 to 30 grams the monograph's dosage trends describe, and a long way below the amounts used in the trial that was stopped. The honest reading is that the risk at this amount is probably small — and that probably is a word a clinician should be allowed to replace, with the panel in front of them.
If you have had a cardiac event or take nitrates, photograph the panel and ask your cardiologist before the first capsule. It takes a minute, the panel carries seven real numbers, and on this product that conversation is actually possible.
Somebody who has read about a specific ingredient and gone looking for it — which, on this product, is a strange thing to have to write, because the label tells them immediately.
If you read the citrulline literature and want the 8 grams of citrulline malate the NIH describes, this capsule holds 100 milligrams. If you read the beta-alanine trials and want the 1.6 to 6.4 grams a day they used, this capsule holds 40 milligrams. If you read the arginine monograph and want 6 grams, this capsule holds 400.
On a proprietary blend the informed buyer is the one who suffers most, because the information their reading prepared them to use is the piece that is missing. Here the informed buyer is the one the label serves best, because they can see the answer before paying rather than after.
That is a genuine service, even when the answer is no.
The buyer it suits best is the opposite: someone who wants a simple once-daily capsule with a modest niacin top-up and a label they can read, is not chasing a particular dose, takes no prescription medicine, and intends to judge it over one thirty-day bottle inside a sixty-day window.
Read off the printed label and the sources on our references page.
| Situation | What the label or our sources say |
|---|---|
| Healthy adult, 18+ | The label's intended user. One capsule daily with a glass of water, 20 to 30 minutes before a meal |
| Under 18 | The caution panel says consult a physician first; the brief says adults 18 and over |
| Pregnant or nursing | The caution panel says consult a physician first |
| Has had a heart attack | Our source: L-arginine is not recommended following acute myocardial infarction. 400 mg is declared per capsule |
| Taking nitrates | Our source: caution is warranted in patients concomitantly using L-arginine supplementation and nitrates |
| Taking blood pressure medicine | Arginine is a vasodilator and hypotension may occur. A clinician question |
| Taking insulin or a statin | Our source describes arginine's effects on both as unpredictable |
| Prone to low blood pressure | Same vasodilatory mechanism. Reported effects include palpitations, headache and numbness |
| Sensitive to niacin flushing | 7.5 mg NE is far below the 30 to 50 mg at which flushing typically begins, and below the 35 mg upper limit |
| Dislikes the beta-alanine tingle | It will not happen. The NIH puts the threshold at 800 mg; this capsule holds 40 |
| Avoiding gelatin | The capsule is hypromellose, named on the label, with vegetable stearate and silicon dioxide |
| Any known medical condition | The label's own caution panel says consult a physician before use |
Everything above is either printed on the label or quoted from a named source we opened. None of it is a judgement about your health, which we are not qualified to make. If any row in that table describes you, the useful next step is the panel in front of a pharmacist — and on this product, unusually, the panel is worth putting in front of one.
Memocept is a memory supplement in 30-capsule bottles, one capsule a day. Its panel declares seven ingredients and prints an amount for every one of them — and that disclosure is what lets anyone see how far below the studied doses those amounts sit. We publish the arithmetic rather than the adjectives.
Order NowRead the label firstWe cannot tell you that, and neither can the teal label, because it does not say how much of anything is in it. What we can do is list the specific cautions our sources record and let you take them to a clinician: the huperzine and cholinesterase-inhibitor interaction, the rhodiola and losartan interaction, and the caffeine question.
It matters if you receive the purple bottle. The arginine monograph we read states that “L-arginine is not recommended following acute myocardial infarction”, after a trial was stopped early when 8.6% of the arginine group died against none in the control group. That is a reason to establish which bottle you are being sent before you order.
Not published. Caffeine from green coffee bean is the first ingredient in the blend, which by the descending-order rule means it is the heaviest of the seven and could in principle be the entire 151 mg. No milligram figure appears on the label, in the brief or on the listing.
Then both labels have something for you to raise with a clinician. On the teal one, NCCIH records reported interactions between rhodiola and losartan. On the purple one, the arginine monograph warns about concomitant use with nitrates and describes effects on other drugs as unpredictable.
Ask the person who prescribes it, and take both panels with you. The two specific interactions in our sources are huperzine A with cholinesterase inhibitors and rhodiola with losartan, and on the other label arginine carries a caution about nitrates. Both labels' caution panels say to consult a physician if you are taking a medication.
For huperzine A the monograph lists hyperactivity, nasal obstruction, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, insomnia, anxiety, dizziness, thirst and constipation. For bacopa, flu-like symptoms, GI irritation, nausea, increased intestinal motility and muscle fatigue. For rhodiola, dizziness, headache, insomnia and dry mouth or excess saliva. None of those is on this product's label.
Both labels say no, in their own caution panels, and the brief says adults 18 and over. NCCIH also notes that little is known about whether rhodiola is safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
No. Both labels say so explicitly.
They are the best-made part of the teal label. Vitamin B1 at 6 mg, B6 at 8.5 mg and B12 at 24 mcg, and all three printed percentages are arithmetically correct against the FDA's Daily Values of 1.2 mg, 1.7 mg and 2.4 mcg. Whether you need them depends on your diet, and a supplement is not the only way to get them.
One bottle is 30 capsules at one a day, so a bottle is thirty days and the 60-day guarantee still has thirty left to run when it ends. The guarantee runs from purchase, not from delivery, and the price is shown at checkout.
