PEA is approved by regulatory authority as “food for special medical purpose” in India.

PEA is a naturally occurring agent produced by the body that has no reported serious side effects or drug-drug interactions, making it a better treatment option for pain management.

Few patients who are sensitive to PEA may show mild side effects like upset stomach.

Adverse events reported with PEA treatment in clinical trials included gastrointestinal upset, drowsiness, and heart palpitations.
