General ...Phosphatidylcholine is generally well tolerated when used orally, subcutaneously, or topically. Orally, bloating, diarrhea, altered taste, nausea, vomiting, sweating, and itching have been reported with phosphatidylcholine (5229,63244,68843,93389,93390,105728). Ingesting large amounts of around 30 grams daily is associated with a higher incidence of gastrointestinal upset and diarrhea (5223). Subcutaneously, pain, burning, itching, tenderness to touch, bruising, edema, nodules, hematoma, and erythema at the injection site have been reported with phosphatidylcholine (1562,15623,15624,15625,15626,15627,15628). High subcutaneous doses exceeding 1.2 grams of phosphatidylcholine can cause nausea and abdominal pain in some people (15624). Injecting phosphatidylcholine directly into a lipoma can result in a significant inflammatory response and undesirable fibrotic tissues changes (15622).
Dermatologic ...When taken orally, phosphatidylcholine may increase sweating (5229) and itching (63244). When given subcutaneously, phosphatidylcholine can cause pain, burning, itching, tenderness to touch, bruising, edema, and erythema at the injection site. The pain, itching and erythema usually resolve within 2 days of treatment; however localized tenderness can last longer (15623,15624,15626,15627,15628). Edema and bruising usually resolve within 10 days of treatment (15621,15623,15625). Some people can also develop nodules or hematoma at the injection site. This usually resolves within 30 days (15627).
Gastrointestinal ...Ingesting large amounts of phosphatidylcholine (30 grams per day) can cause gastrointestinal upset and diarrhea (5223). However, bloating, diarrhea, altered taste, nausea, and vomiting have been reported with smaller doses (63244,68843,93389,93390,105728). Although moderate subcutaneous doses do not usually cause systemic side effects, high doses exceeding 1.2 grams of phosphatidylcholine can cause nausea and abdominal pain in some people (15624).
Musculoskeletal ...Injecting phosphatidylcholine directly into a lipoma can result in a significant inflammatory response and undesirable fibrotic tissue changes (15622).
