Findings to review with care

Side effects reported for the ingredient alone are separated from findings involving another supplement or medication.

Side effects reported when this ingredient was used alone

Symptoms or adverse events reported in studies of this ingredient without another active ingredient.

Adverse effect signal1 papers
The review notes that a randomized control trial reported energy drinks (containing taurine and caffeine) prolong QT intervals, an effect not explained by the isolated electrophysiological actions of the individual ingredients.Human studies · Study type not identified
Adolescent brain maturation and toxicity1 papers
Animal studies reviewed indicate that adolescents are unlikely to benefit from taurine supplementation and may suffer ill effects from chronic high-dose ingestion, while aged or diseased brains might benefit.Animal studies · Study type not identified

Positive combinations studied

Positive combination findings are separated by how the study compared the groups. This is not a recommendation to combine them.

Positive findings when used together

The combination had a positive result, but the contribution of each ingredient could not be separated.

Iron sulfateOral taurine demonstrated a statistically significant additive positive effect on hemoglobin, RBC count, and serum ferritin when co-administered with iron sulfate compared to iron sulfate alone.
