2 DSC Dietary Supplements Admission Evaluations 1 Dietary Supplements Admission Evaluations This section includes summaries for some of the admission evaluations completed by the USP Dietary Supplements Information Expert Committee [ ] and by the USP Monographs Dietary Supplements and Herbal Medicines Expert Committee [ ] for commonly used dietary ingredients. USP s admission evaluation of a dietary ingredient under the Admission Criteria and Safety Classification for Dietary Supplements Guideline 1 is performed for the sole purpose of helping to inform the Dietary Supplement and Herbal Medicine Expert Committee s determination whether to proceed with consideration for admission into the compendia and should not be relied upon as any finding about the intrinsic safety or effectiveness of the dietary supplement ingredient under review. Summaries of Admission Evaluations are available for articles that were cleared for monograph development. The following articles did not clear the admission review stage and are not undergoing monograph development: Natto Extract, Phyllanthus amarus Extract, and Calcium Magnesium Phytate. Additional information on these articles may be available upon request under USP s document disclosure process. 2 Introduction to Dietary Supplements Summary Admission Evaluations Admission Criteria and Safety Classification for Dietary Supplements Guideline...8 N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine Andrographis Ashwagandha Root Astaxanthin Esters Astragalus Root...25 Aztec Marigold Zeaxanthin Extract Bacopa Banaba Leaf...38 Beta Glucan...43 Black Cohosh Borage Seed Oil Boswellia serrata Calcium l-5-methyltetrahydrofolate Centella asiatica Chinese Salvia Diosmin Evening Primrose Oil...78 Fenugreek...82 Flaxseed Lignans Forskohlii...91 Ganoderma Lucidum Fruiting Body...95 Garcinia cambogia Garcinia indica Glutathione Green Tea Extract, Powdered Decaffeinated Guggul Gymnema Holy Basil Leaf Hydroxy-L-tryptophan (5-HTP) Available at 2 Available at
