Product Details

Methylene Blue is a pharmacist-formulated nootropic designed to support mitochondrial health, cellular energy, and cognitive performance.1–4 By supporting the electron transport chain, methylene blue may help optimize ATP production — the body's core energy currency — which may promote sharper memory and focus.1,4 Research also points to its potential to support cognitive clarity and balanced mood, and to contribute to healthy aging by helping counteract age-related mitochondrial decline.1–3

FAQs

What makes Strive's Methylene Blue unique?

Our formula is pharmacist-formulated, uses USP-grade methylene blue, and is batch-tested for purity to help ensure consistent dosing.1–4

Can Methylene Blue support cognitive function?

Yes. By helping support mitochondrial activity, methylene blue has been studied for its potential to support focus, memory, and overall cognitive performance.1,2

Does Methylene Blue affect mood?

Some research points to a potential role in supporting balanced mood.2 Because methylene blue can affect serotonin levels, check with your healthcare provider before combining it with SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, or other serotonergic medications.

Warnings: For adult use only. Not for use by those who are pregnant or nursing. Methylene blue is an MAOI (monoamine oxidase inhibitor); avoid combining it with SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, or other medications that affect serotonin, as this may increase the risk of serotonin syndrome. Do not use if you have glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, due to the risk of hemolytic anemia. Methylene blue may temporarily discolor urine or stool blue or green. Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are taking any medication or have a medical condition, and discontinue use if you experience unwanted effects. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
