We found no known interaction between Trendione and Ketoconazole 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.

Trendione and Ketoconazole

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 Ketoconazole and Trendione 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 Trendione at all — not against Ketoconazole, 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.

“Ketoconazole (Nizoral) is already hard on the liver, so treat its 182 interacting supplements with genuine care, starting with the six rated major. Most of the list runs through CYP3A4, the liver enzyme ketoconazole strongly blocks, so it can raise levels of over a hundred herbal ingredients, while grapefruit pushes ketoconazole itself…”

About Trendione

What is Trendione?

  • Muscle building
  • Strength gains
  • Body recomposition
  • Athletic performance

Trendione (also marketed as estra-4,9,11-trien-3,17-dione) is a synthetic anabolic steroid sold as a so-called "prohormone" or "designer steroid," not a natural herb or vitamin. It is not a legitimate dietary supplement, has not been proven safe in humans, and is linked to potentially serious side effects, including liver harm. We strongly advise against using it and recommend talking with your doctor or pharmacist.

Not applicable; Trendione is a synthetic steroid compound, not a plant part · Capsules, tablets, oral powders (sold as a bodybuilding supplement)

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

Trendione: dosing

There is no established safe or effective dose for Trendione. Because it is a synthetic steroid rather than a studied medicine, no health authority has set a recommended amount.We do not provide dosing for this product because we do not recommend using it.

About Ketoconazole

What Is Ketoconazole Used For?

Brand name: Nizoral

Ketoconazole 2% shampoo and foam are used to treat tinea versicolor (also called pityriasis versicolor) — a fungal infection caused by Pityrosporum orbiculare (also known as Malassezia furfur), a yeast that naturally lives on the skin.

This infection creates light or dark patches, most often on the trunk, neck, arms, and upper thighs. Even after the fungus is cleared, those skin patches may take months to return to their normal color — that's normal, and depends on your skin type and sun exposure. Tinea versicolor can also come back, since the fungus lives on healthy skin even when there's no active infection.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Ketoconazole
