DIUCAPS™ delivers a therapeutic dose of L-Phenylalanine, an essential amino acid that acts as a biological precursor to the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine, and supports normal levels of the gut hormones that regulate appetite and satiety. Because it works through amino acid and neurotransmitter pathways rather than stimulants, it’s an option for practices that want an appetite-control product outside the stimulant category.
L-Phenylalanine has been described in research as a strong trigger for cholecystokinin (CCK), a hormone that produces feelings of fullness and food satisfaction, which can reduce overall food intake [1,2]. It also converts in the brain and adrenal glands to dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine, neurotransmitters that are often depleted by stress and overwork. Vitamin B6 and Vitamin C act as cofactors that support this conversion.
Read the full mechanism in our L-Phenylalanine white paper.
As patients taper off GLP-1 medications, appetite often returns before new eating habits are fully established. DIUCAPS™ gives practices a non-stimulant, non-controlled option to support appetite management during that transition, without adding another prescription to the patient’s regimen.
Each capsule contains:
| Name | Amount |
|---|---|
| L-Phenylalanine | 300 mg |
| Vitamin C | 100 mg |
| Pyridoxine (B6) | 25 mg |
| Pantothenic Acid (B-5) | 50 mg |
Can DIUCAPS™ be private labeled under our practice’s brand?
Yes, with a minimum order of 24 bottles and a design proof ready for approval within 2-3 business days.
Is DIUCAPS™ appropriate for patients coming off GLP-1 therapy?
Yes, it’s commonly used to support appetite management during the post-GLP-1 maintenance phase.
Is DIUCAPS™ a stimulant or controlled substance?
No. Diucaps is non-stimulant and non-controlled, working through amino acid and neurotransmitter pathways rather than stimulant mechanisms.
What is the suggested use?
One capsule with each meal, or as directed by a physician.
