Drug & supplement interaction

Ligandrol + Temozolomide

Temozolomide brand name: Temodar.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Ligandrol and Temozolomide 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 Temozolomide states a food rule worth keeping to, and the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Interaction report

Ligandrol and Temozolomide

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 Temozolomide and Ligandrol 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 Temozolomide

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Temozolomide is filed under 3 classifications — alkylating agents, antineoplastics, oral drugs. Ligandrol has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being hepatotoxic drugs (moderate) — and none of Temozolomide’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

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Ligandrol and Temozolomide May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do. One of them is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Liver problems Worth acting on Additional detail

    Ligandrol

    “There are cases of liver injury thought to be related to the use of ligandrol alone or in combination with other SARMs. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned that supplements containing SARMs, such as ligandrol, have been associated with liver toxicity.

    There are at least 3 cases of liver injury thought to be related to the use of ligandrol alone.”

How to take them

Some Temozolomide Products Have a Food Rule — Ligandrol Should Not Break It

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

To reduce nausea and vomiting, take TEMODAR on an empty stomach or at bedtime and consider antiemetic therapy prior to and following TEMODAR administration.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Temozolomide — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

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.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Temozolomide

This page covers Ligandrol only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Temozolomide page lists 25 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Acerola (moderate), Alpha-lipoic Acid (moderate), Coenzyme Q10 (moderate) and Coffee Charcoal (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 14 moderate · 10 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Temozolomide page

“Temozolomide (Temodar) is an oral chemotherapy pill, usually prescribed for aggressive brain tumors, and stakes that high make me treat this list with real caution. Most of the 25 supplements on file interfere in the gut, where fibers, gums, and charcoals may bind the drug or change how much of it gets absorbed.”

About Ligandrol

What is Ligandrol?

  • Muscle building
  • Athletic performance and strength
  • Body recomposition
  • Bodybuilding cycles

Ligandrol (LGD-4033) is a synthetic selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), not a natural herb or approved dietary supplement. It is not approved for human use, is banned in sports, and has been linked to liver injury and hormonal disruption, so it should not be taken as a supplement.

Not applicable (synthetic compound) · Capsules, tablets, liquid (research chemical), powder

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

Ligandrol: dosing

There is no established or approved safe dose of Ligandrol because it is not an approved medicine or legal supplement. Doses used in early research and in bodybuilding are not verified for safety, and product labels cannot be trusted to be accurate.Because of the real risks and the lack of an approved dose, the safest choice is not to take it at all.

Taking Ligandrol and Temozolomide Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Ligandrol with Temozolomide?
We do not list a known interaction between Ligandrol and Temozolomide. 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.
Do Ligandrol and Temozolomide have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 3 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.
Should I take Ligandrol and Temozolomide at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Temozolomide 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 Temozolomide on its own and move Ligandrol 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 Ligandrol and Temozolomide combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Temozolomide is filed under 3 classifications, and Ligandrol has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Temozolomide'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 Ligandrol interact with any other medications?
Yes. Ligandrol has 370 documented drug interactions in our database — Temozolomide 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 Temozolomide interact with any supplements?
Yes. Temozolomide has documented interactions with 25 supplements in our database — Ligandrol is not one of them. The Temozolomide interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
