Default New vitamins question on price

Hello everyone,

I see a doctor for bio identical hormone replacement. She is suggesting I start some of the supplements her office offers. She has a medical spa. She said she is certain the supplements contain the amounts of the nutrients posted on the label because she uses only one compound pharmacy for everything. I feel that the prices may be really high. However, if I get feedback from here that says they may be beneficial I am going to try them. My memory could use some help. I believe I suffers from brain fog.

The first is called brain support and contains 12 key elements:
Acetyl-L-Carnitine (as acetyl-l- carnitine hydrochloride) 500mg
Glut amine (as L- glutamine USP)250mg

L- Tyrosine (as L-Tryosine USP) 200mg
DMAE 100mg

Blueberry ( vaccinum corymbosum) min 15% anthocyanins 100mg
Gringo leaf dried extract, min 0.8% eleutherosides 100mgs
Vinpocetine 15 mg
GPC supplying 50% alpha-glycerophosphocholine (soy) 250 mg
Phosphatidylserine 50 mg

The price of this is $81.00 and your suppose to take 2 per day. She said if I had yo I could take one a day. It just won't work as well.

The other is for inflammation containing:
Turmeric Phytosome ( Curcuma longa) root, dried extract, min 18% curcuminoids, phosphatidlcholine complex 500mg

The price of this is $72.00 for 100 caps and your suppose to take it twice a day

In case You need to know to answer my question my meds are

Amitriptyline

My supplements are
