Payarmin Label Spelling Errors: Each Typo, Read Plainly
The Payarmin label has spelling errors in its ingredient list. It prints “Lepidium mevenii” for maca’s Latin name and “L-Typtophan” for L-tryptophan. Other lines leave out the plant species. A typo does not prove the drops are unsafe, but it is a sign of weak proofreading, and it makes a label harder to check.

The list
Which spelling errors are on the Payarmin label?
Two names are clearly misspelled: “Lepidium mevenii” (the plant is Lepidium meyenii) and “L-Typtophan” (L-tryptophan). We type both as printed on every page.
Three more lines are loose rather than wrong. They leave out a species or use an odd form.
| As printed | Likely meant |
|---|---|
| Lepidium mevenii | Lepidium meyenii (maca) |
| L-Typtophan | L-tryptophan |
| L-Ornithine HCL | L-ornithine HCl, the usual style |
| Gymnema Leaf Extract | Species not printed |
| Astragalus Root Extract | Species not printed |
Does it matter
Do typos on a supplement label matter?
A typo alone does not show a bad product. It does make the label harder to check, because a reader cannot be sure which ingredient was meant.
The tryptophan line is the one that counts most. L-tryptophan should not be mixed with MAO inhibitors or other serotonin-raising products without medical advice (L-tryptophan per Drugs.com). A misspelled name is easier to miss when you check a medicine list.
If you take an antidepressant, search the correct spelling, L-tryptophan, and show your pharmacist the real label. Keep taking prescribed medicine as directed.
What to do
How should you read a label that has typos?
Read it line by line against a spelling you trust. Our supplement facts page and ingredient guide match each printed line to its correct name.
Then ask the seller to confirm the exact ingredient, in writing.
- Match each name to a trusted source before you judge it.
- Ask about the missing species for gymnema and astragalus.
- Photograph the label in case a later bottle reads differently.

FAQ
Questions people raise about label typos?
One to start with: Is Lepidium mevenii a different plant from maca? Plus 2 more answered below.
Each answer gives the plain reply first, then the reasoning and a citation where available.
Is Lepidium mevenii a different plant from maca?
The label means maca. The plant is spelled Lepidium meyenii, and the label has one letter wrong. We keep the printed spelling so you can match it to your bottle.
Does the Payarmin label spell GABA correctly?
The short form is right. The long form is printed as “Gamma amino butyric acid” without hyphens, which is a style slip, not a different ingredient.
Could a new bottle fix the label typos?
Possibly, but we only report the label we read. Compare your own bottle with our page, and tell us at [email protected] if it differs.
