The best price per 300 mg and per month across 2 UK retailers, and where to buy it cheapest. A unit for comparing, not advice.

Comparing alpha-lipoic acid

We count the alpha-lipoic acid a label states per serving, whatever the pack size or the serving size, so every product sits on one scale. Alpha-lipoic acid comes as alpha-lipoic acid and R-lipoic acid, and each form has its own table, because someone buying one would not usually take another as a like-for-like substitute. Products that combine alpha-lipoic acid with other ingredients are listed separately, because their price buys more than alpha-lipoic acid. 300 mg is our unit for comparing prices, not a dose to take: the label’s directions and a pharmacist decide that.

Prices last checked: . Ranked purely by price per 300 mg — a comparison unit, not a recommendation. We earn commission when you buy through these links; it never affects the order.
