HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 7-Keto DHEA 100 mg by Jarrow Formulas

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: 7-keto DHEA, a compound derived from DHEA (a natural hormone your body makes). Unlike DHEA itself, 7-keto DHEA does not convert to testosterone or estrogen in your body.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient 7-keto-dhea product and its label doesn't state a use — see 7-keto-dhea's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for 7-keto DHEA remains insufficient to know whether it works. The ingredient has been studied for depression, obesity, aging, Raynaud syndrome (a condition affecting blood flow to fingers and toes), and post-traumatic stress disorder, but the data we hold rates all of these as having insufficient reliable evidence to judge.

If you're considering this for a specific condition, talk with your pharmacist about what the research currently shows.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient 7-keto-dhea

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Short-term use appears generally well tolerated in small studies, but long-term safety is not well established. A case report noted decreased hemoglobin and hematocrit levels (measures of red blood cells and oxygen-carrying capacity) in one person taking the supplement for a week, though the significance of this is unclear.

Some trial participants reported nausea or vertigo (dizziness), though these were uncommon. Because 7-keto DHEA is hormone-related, the safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

The bottom line

This is a single-ingredient supplement with no documented medication interactions. The evidence for whether it actually works is not clear.

Formula

Jarrow Formulas 7-Keto DHEA is a naturally occurring metabolite of DHEA that does not metabolize into sex hormones but can still provide many of the same benefits of DHEA without the same side effects. Additionally, DHEA levels decline with age. 7-Keto DHEA supports fatty acid and carbohydrate metabolism.

7-Keto DHEA 100 mg by Jarrow Formulas: Common Questions

Does 7-Keto DHEA 100 mg by Jarrow Formulas interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in 7-Keto DHEA 100 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
7-Keto DHEA 100 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take 7-Keto DHEA while pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against it because there isn't enough safety information and hormone-related supplements carry extra caution in pregnancy.
Can I take 7-Keto DHEA while breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against it because there's no reliable safety information available for breastfeeding.
Does this actually work for weight loss or aging?
The evidence is insufficient to know. 7-Keto DHEA has been studied for obesity and aging, but we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works for either one.
What side effects should I watch for?
Short-term use in small studies was generally well tolerated. Some trial participants reported nausea or dizziness, though these were uncommon. One case report noted a drop in red blood cell measures, though what that means clinically is unclear. Long-term safety is not well established.
Is this the same as regular DHEA?
No. 7-Keto DHEA is derived from DHEA but does not convert to testosterone or estrogen in your body like DHEA does.
