What is this page for?

Around that, we add a pharmacist’s high-level view of the product as a whole — what’s inside, the evidence for its stated use, how transparent the label is, and what safety data exists — so you can see the full picture in one place. It’s educational information from our licensed clinical databases and the clinical staff at HelloPharmacist — not medical advice — and we don’t sell or endorse products. Our editorial policy

HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 7-Keto 50 mg by The Vitamin Shoppe
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: 7-Keto DHEA, a form of the hormone DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone). The remaining ingredients are inactive — microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — which help form and stabilize the capsule.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence for 7-Keto DHEA isn't established for the conditions it's marketed for. The data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obesity, depression, Raynaud syndrome (a condition affecting blood flow to the fingers and toes), or aging.
That means studies so far haven't been solid enough to say whether it works.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Short-term use appears to be generally well tolerated in small studies, but long-term safety isn't well established, so we don't know what happens if you take it for months or years. Side effects in trials have been rare — a small number of people reported nausea or vertigo (dizziness), and one case report described changes in red blood cell levels, though the clinical significance isn't clear.
The safety data advises against using it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, since there's not enough reliable information to know it's safe for you or your baby.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for this ingredient. That said, run your specific medications through the checker on this page to be sure, or ask your pharmacist.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
7-Keto DHEA may be worth trying if you're interested in its marketed uses, but evidence for those uses isn't solid yet. Because it's a hormone-related supplement and long-term safety isn't known, talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any blood-related concerns.
