Merchient’s ingredient library

What can you say about myo-inositol in your ads and on your site?

The library gives no supported wording for myo-inositol, because no listed source supports one at a dose. Avoid wording that names or implies a disease, a drug or a treatment, such as “Treats PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)”.

Also called: Inositol, Myoinositol

Reviewed

Not legal advice. This guide shows the wording that published evidence supports at a daily dose; it is not a ruling on any claim. Your own product, its form and dose, and your own evidence still need to match the wording you use.

Claims Facts

No supported wording yet.

No listed source gives a use with a dose for myo-inositol. Health Canada’s multi-vitamin/mineral monograph (dated 26 June 2026) lists inositol among its complementary ingredients (Table 4) and says no claim can be supported on them; its general ‘source of’ statements (section 4.1) cover only the vitamins and minerals in Tables 1 to 3. There is no ODS fact sheet among those read, FDA lists no health claim, and Regulation (EU) No 432/2012 has none.
