Research
Hundreds of investigators, thousands of patients, and decades of research have poured into our scientifically-backed dietary supplements.
The Scientific Basis for [QUELL]plus™: While serving as pain clinicians on a hospital's acute pain service, the pharmacist founders of neurii health noted surprising success with a sequential combination of an anti-neuropathic drug, a mild NMDA receptor antagonist, and an anti-inflammatory agent. Understanding the impact this combination had on the most challenging cases of acute pain, while witnessing first-hand the shortcomings of available therapies for chronic pain, they began researching and developing neurii health's first oral dietary supplement to support people living with pain using these same exact principles of synergy and combined mechanisms.
