Product Description

5-MTHF, also known as Methylfolate, is the preferred form of folate supplementation because it is the active form of folate used by the body’s tissues.*Â

Many individuals don't get sufficient 5-MTHF (L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate), the active form of folic acid, because they have intestinal or liver dysfunction, or because they are among the three out of five Americans whose genetic makeup makes it difficult to convert folic acid into active 5-MTHF.Â

Benefits of Thorne’s 5-MTHF:Â

  • An adequate amount of 5-MTHF is essential for the production of the neurotransmitters serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, and epinephrine – all of which support healthy brain function and mood*
  • Acting with vitamin B12, 5-MTHF functions as a methyl-group donor, thereby facilitating healthy methylation and homocysteine levels*
  • Folic acid is especially important before conception and during early pregnancy, because its biggest need is during the first trimester – when a woman might not know she is pregnant. A folic acid deficiency is linked to low-birth-weight infants and neural tube birth defects*


Note: 1 mg of 5-MTHF is recommended for fetal support during pregnancy; the 15 mg option is recommended only when directed by a health-care practitioner.

This pharmacy is a step above the average pharmacy. The staff are professional, caring and take pride in their work. CVS told my nurse they didn't have time to fill my prescription and to go elsewhere because they were busy. The nurse called Stark Pharmacy. They knew the prescription was for severe pain and had my prescription filled in 20 minutes so I could have it before they closed for the night. That is customer service at its finest!!

Karen (Pharmacist) and all supporting staff have been stellar. I've been going there for bioidentical HRT for 14 years now and have never been disappointed.

I am new to Stark Pharmacy, but my experience has been so personable and educational, I had to leave a review. I recently spoke with John Schafer about my new treatment plan which includes compounded medications. He was clear, patient & personable. He anticipated questions & concerns I hadn't yet thought of myself. In today's environment of "hurry up, take a number, wait & NEXT", it was a comforting & encouraging difference to not feel rushed. All my questions were answered with sincerity & clarity. I didn't feel silly or like an inconvenience.

The pharmacists were able to make the medications I needed that weren't available in a safe commercial form. One is a life-saving medication for me.
