Drug & supplement interaction

Testolone + Methylene Blue

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 13, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Testolone and Methylene Blue 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 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

Testolone and Methylene Blue

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 Methylene Blue and Testolone 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 Methylene Blue

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

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Testolone and Methylene Blue May Share a Side Effect

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.

    “A dose escalation study of testolone 50-150 mg daily for about 8 weeks found that the most common treatment-emergent adverse events included moderate elevations in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and bilirubin.”

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Methylene Blue

This page covers Testolone only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Methylene Blue page lists 38 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Lithium (major), 5-htp (moderate), Acetyl-l-carnitine (moderate) and Ayahuasca (moderate).

By severity: 2 major · 25 moderate · 11 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Methylene Blue page

“The pairing I would worry about first with methylene blue (Urolene Blue, Provayblue) is anything that raises serotonin, and lithium heads that group with a major rating. Methylene blue inhibits monoamine oxidase A, the enzyme that breaks serotonin down, so combining it with serotonin-boosting supplements can tip someone into serotonin…”

About Testolone

What is Testolone?

  • Muscle building
  • Athletic performance and bodybuilding
  • Strength gains
  • Body recomposition (fat loss with muscle gain)

Testolone (RAD-140) is a synthetic experimental drug called a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), not a dietary supplement or herb, and it is not approved or proven safe for human use. It is illegally sold for muscle building, has been linked to serious harms including liver injury, and is banned in sports — it should not be taken outside of supervised clinical research.

Synthetic compound (not a plant); supplied as a chemical powder or liquid · Capsules, tablets, liquids, and powders sold as 'research chemicals'

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

Testolone: dosing

There is no established safe or approved dose of Testolone. It has not gone through the testing needed to set safe dosing guidelines for people.Doses listed on illegally sold products are not verified, and the actual content of these products is often unreliable. For these reasons, we do not provide dosing information.The safest choice is not to use Testolone.

Taking Testolone and Methylene Blue Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Testolone with Methylene Blue?
We do not list a known interaction between Testolone and Methylene Blue. 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 Testolone and Methylene Blue have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to one 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.
How was the Testolone and Methylene Blue combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Methylene Blue is filed under 3 classifications, and Testolone has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Methylene Blue'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 Testolone interact with any other medications?
Yes. Testolone has 370 documented drug interactions in our database — Methylene Blue 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 Methylene Blue interact with any supplements?
Yes. Methylene Blue has documented interactions with 38 supplements in our database — Testolone is not one of them. The Methylene Blue interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
