Drug & supplement interaction

Stenabolic + Avapritinib

Avapritinib brand name: Ayvakit.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Stenabolic and Avapritinib 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 Avapritinib states a food rule worth keeping to.

Stenabolic and Avapritinib

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 Avapritinib and Stenabolic 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 Stenabolic at all — not against Avapritinib, 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.

What Avapritinib’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Stenabolic. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Avapritinib’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 8 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Thoughts of self-harm Worth acting on
  • A stroke or mini-stroke Worth acting on
  • Memory problems Worth acting on
  • Confusion Worth acting on
  • Low mood Worth acting on
  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • Shortness of breath Worth acting on
  • Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on
  • Trouble concentrating
  • A change in taste

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Avapritinib. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 12,039 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Avapritinib that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Stenabolic’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Stenabolic side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Stenabolic has no side effects.

How to take them

Some Avapritinib Products Have a Food Rule — Stenabolic Should Not Break It

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

( 2.7 ) 2.1 Recommended Administration Administer AYVAKIT orally on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Avapritinib — 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.

About Stenabolic

What is Stenabolic?

  • Endurance and stamina
  • Fat loss
  • Bodybuilding and athletic performance
  • Boosting metabolism

Stenabolic (also called SR9009) is an experimental research chemical, not a true dietary supplement, herb, or approved drug. It is sold online for fat loss and endurance, but it has never been tested for safety or effectiveness in humans, and it is banned in sports. Because the risks are unknown and product quality is unreliable, we do not recommend using it.

Synthetic compound (not from a plant) · Capsules, liquid solutions, powders

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

Stenabolic: dosing

There is no established or approved dose for Stenabolic because it has never been tested in proper human studies. Doses suggested on websites and forums are not based on safety research.We cannot recommend a dose. Given the lack of safety data, the risk of contaminated products, and its banned status in sports, the safest choice is not to use it at all.

About Avapritinib

What Is Avapritinib Used For?

Brand name: Ayvakit

Ayvakit (avapritinib) is approved to treat adults with unresectable (cannot be surgically removed) or metastatic (spread to other parts of the body) gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that have a specific genetic mutation called a PDGFRA exon 18 mutation, including the D842V variant. Patients must be tested for this mutation before starting treatment.

Ayvakit is also approved to treat advanced systemic mastocytosis (AdvSM) — a serious condition where abnormal mast cells build up in organs — including aggressive systemic mastocytosis, systemic mastocytosis with an associated blood cancer, and mast cell leukemia. Additionally, Ayvakit treats indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM), a less severe form of the disease. It is not recommended for either form of mastocytosis if platelet counts are too low (below 50 × 10⁹/L).

Most-Reported Side Effects for Avapritinib

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (12,039 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Taking Stenabolic and Avapritinib Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Stenabolic with Avapritinib?
We do not list a known interaction between Stenabolic and Avapritinib. 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 Stenabolic and Avapritinib at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Avapritinib 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 Avapritinib on its own and move Stenabolic 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.
Does Avapritinib interact with any supplements?
Yes. Avapritinib has documented interactions with 138 supplements in our database — Stenabolic is not one of them. The Avapritinib interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
