7-keto-dhea + Tapinarof
Tapinarof brand name: Vtama.
We found no known interaction between 7-keto-dhea and Tapinarof in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.
7-keto-dhea and Tapinarof
We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.
No Known Interaction Found
We did not find a documented interaction between Tapinarof and 7-keto-dhea in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.
Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for 7-keto-dhea at all — not against Tapinarof, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.
If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.
Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

By severity: 2 moderate · 1 minor.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Tapinarof page
“Tapinarof (Vtama) is a cream you apply to psoriasis plaques, so every supplement interaction on record involves other things you put on your skin, three in total, and none rates major. The two moderate entries, DMSO and turpentine oil, may pull more of the cream through the skin than intended, which could amplify both its effect and it…”

About 7-keto-dhea
What is 7-keto-dhea?
- Weight loss and fat burning
- Boosting metabolism
- Supporting muscle mass
- Improving body composition
- Anti-aging support
7-keto-DHEA is a lab-made metabolite of the hormone DHEA that is marketed mainly for weight loss and a faster metabolism. Unlike DHEA, it is not thought to convert into estrogen or testosterone, but the evidence that it helps with weight or metabolism is limited and comes from small studies. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, especially if you have any health conditions.
Not applicable (a manufactured metabolite of DHEA) · Capsules, tablets, powders (often in weight-loss or 'metabolism' blends)
