Melonex Supplement: What "Dietary Supplement" Means on the Label
Melonex Advanced Support is labeled a dietary supplement, in capsules, 60 to a bottle. In U.S. law that is a different category from a drug. The FDA does not approve supplements before sale, and the label carries a statement saying so. The category says how the product is regulated. It says nothing about whether it works.

Is Melonex a supplement or a drug?
It is a supplement. The bottle says "Dietary Supplement" on the front, and it is sold as capsules to take with water.
A drug must be approved by the FDA before it is sold. A supplement does not need that approval, and the agency states plainly that it does not approve supplements or their labeling 1. Firms are responsible for judging the safety and labeling of their own products before they go to market 2.
How does a supplement differ from a drug?
The two categories follow different rules before the product reaches you.
What does the Melonex label actually print?
It prints one blend of 500 mg per capsule and does not print the amount of each of the three named amino acids.
