Drug & supplement interaction

Andarine + Naloxegol

Naloxegol brand name: Movantik.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Andarine and Naloxegol 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Naloxegol states a food rule worth keeping to.

Andarine and Naloxegol

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 Naloxegol and Andarine 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.

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.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Naloxegol

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Naloxegol is filed under 2 classifications — cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Andarine has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being androgens (moderate) — and none of Naloxegol’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

What to actually watch for

What Andarine Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Naloxegol. It is the side-effect record for Andarine on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Andarine, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A heart attack Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, selective androgen receptor modulators, such as andarine, could potentially increase the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and liver toxicity. However, no thorough safety evaluations of andarine have been conducted.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Andarine — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Naloxegol’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Naloxegol column appears here.

How to take them

Some Naloxegol Products Have a Food Rule — Andarine Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Naloxegol says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Andarine included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Naloxegol on its own and move Andarine to a meal later in the day.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Naloxegol products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

(2.1) Take on an empty stomach at least 1 hour prior to the first meal of the day or 2 hours after the meal.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Naloxegol — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. See the Naloxegol drug page ›

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Naloxegol page

“Naloxegol (Movantik) relieves the constipation that opioids cause, and this is a list that deserves real care before you add anything from it. Nearly all of the trouble traces to a single enzyme, CYP3A4, which the body relies on to clear naloxegol.”

About Andarine

What is Andarine?

Andarine
  • Muscle building
  • Strength gains
  • Fat loss / body recomposition
  • Athletic performance enhancement
  • Bone density support

Andarine (S-4) is a synthetic selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) that is not approved by the FDA for human use and is banned in sports. It is not a legal dietary supplement ingredient, its long-term safety in people is unknown, and reported side effects include vision changes and possible liver and hormone problems. Because of these risks and its illegal status, we do not recommend using it.

Not applicable (synthetic chemical compound) · Capsules, tablets, liquid solutions (sold as research chemicals)

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Andarine is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Andarine record says about it on its own.

Andarine: dosing

There is no established or approved dose for Andarine because it is not a recognized medicine or legal supplement. We cannot recommend a safe dose, and doses circulated online are not backed by proper human research.Given that it is unapproved, potentially unsafe, and illegal to sell as a supplement, the safest choice is not to use it at all.

Taking Andarine and Naloxegol Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Andarine with Naloxegol?
We do not list a known interaction between Andarine and Naloxegol. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Should I take Andarine and Naloxegol at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Naloxegol says to take it on an empty stomach, and supplements are usually taken with a meal — so taking them together at breakfast is the easy mistake. Where that applies, keep Naloxegol on its own and move Andarine to a meal later in the day. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient, so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
How was the Andarine and Naloxegol combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Naloxegol is filed under 2 classifications, and Andarine has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Naloxegol's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Andarine interact with any other medications?
Yes. Andarine has 9 documented drug interactions in our database — Naloxegol is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Naloxegol interact with any supplements?
Yes. Naloxegol has documented interactions with 138 supplements in our database — Andarine is not one of them. The Naloxegol interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
