Shingles
Supplements studied for shingles.
Overview
Methionine (1 study) has not been tested alone for shingles. One small trial found that after standard antiviral treatment, adding a supplement containing L-methionine and other nutrients helped skin heal faster, lowered the chance of shingles recurrence, and eased nerve pain compared with antiviral medicine alone.
It is unknown which ingredient in the combination product drove the benefit. See the heatmap and evidence reviews below.
