The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Androsterone and Rabeprazole 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.

Androsterone and Rabeprazole

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 Rabeprazole and Androsterone 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 Rabeprazole

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Rabeprazole is filed under 9 classifications — including proton pump inhibitors (ppis), cytochrome p450 2c19 (cyp2c19) inhibitors, cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) inducers. Androsterone has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being androgens (minor) — and none of Rabeprazole’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 Androsterone Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Liver problems Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, androsterone is possibly unsafe. As an anabolic androgenic steroid, there is concern that it might cause serious side effects including heart disease and liver injury.”

    Androsterone · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in cardiovascular disease (cvd).

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

Special populations

Androsterone in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy And Lactation Possibly Unsafe

When used orally or parenterally. Anabolic androgenic steroids can disrupt the body's hormonal balance and cause various adverse effects including reduced fertility, hair loss, acne, and behavioral changes. Anabolic androgenic steroid use has also been associated with hepatotoxicity and increased risk for heart disease. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory agencies warn that dietary supplements containing anabolic steroids are dangerous. Avoid using.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Rabeprazole

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Grapefruit (major), St. John's Wort (major), Acacia Rigidula (moderate) and Adrafinil (moderate).

By severity: 3 major · 119 moderate · 50 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Rabeprazole page

“Rabeprazole (Pariet) quiets stomach acid for reflux and ulcers, but its supplement list deserves genuine care, with three serious entries to understand before anything else. Most items matter because they change how the liver breaks rabeprazole down, so its level can drift up or down.”

About Androsterone

What is Androsterone?

Androsterone
  • Muscle building and athletic performance
  • Boosting testosterone or androgen levels
  • Supporting libido
  • Bodybuilding 'prohormone' stacks

Androsterone is a natural androgenic steroid hormone made in the body, but supplement versions are classified as anabolic-androgenic steroids and are banned from U.S. dietary supplements under the DASCA law. There is no good evidence that taking it is safe or effective, and it carries the same hormone-related risks as other anabolic steroids. Avoid products that contain it, and talk to a pharmacist or doctor about safer, legal options.

Not applicable (a steroid hormone, not a plant) · Historically sold as oral capsules, tablets, and sublingual products in 'prohormone' supplements (now banned in the U.S.)

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

Androsterone: dosing

There is no established or recommended safe dose of androsterone as a supplement, and it is illegal to sell in U.S. dietary supplements. We do not provide dosing for it.If you see a product that lists androsterone or one of its alternate names on the label, treat it as a banned anabolic steroid rather than a normal supplement.

About Rabeprazole

What Is Rabeprazole Used For?

Brand name: Pariet

Rabeprazole delayed-release tablets treat a range of acid-related conditions in adults, including healing and maintenance of erosive or ulcerative GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), symptomatic GERD, duodenal ulcers, and pathological hypersecretory conditions such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. They are also used alongside antibiotics (amoxicillin and clarithromycin) to eradicate H. pylori bacteria and reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer coming back.

In adolescents 12 years and older, rabeprazole delayed-release tablets are approved for short-term treatment of symptomatic GERD. Both AcipHex and Rabeprazole Sodium delayed-release tablets share this indication set for adults and adolescents 12 and older.
