HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 7-Keto DHEA 100 mg by Vital Nutrients

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 (the chemical name is 7-oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone-3beta-acetate), a compound derived from DHEA, at 100 mg per capsule. The remaining ingredients are inactive — cellulose, rice powder, ascorbyl palmitate, silica, and leucine — which help form and preserve the capsule.

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 is not yet established. The studies we have don't give us reliable proof that it works for PTSD, obesity, depression, Raynaud syndrome, or aging.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means we need better research before we can say either way.

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 the small studies done so far, but we don't have solid long-term safety data. A case report noted decreased blood cell counts in one man taking it for a week, and a clinical trial reported nausea in a small number of participants and one report of dizziness.

Because this is a hormone-related supplement, the safety data advises against it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented for 7-keto-DHEA in our data. Still, because it's a hormone-related compound, check your medications with the tool on this page — your pharmacist can spot anything we might have missed.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

7-keto-DHEA is for someone curious about this compound but aware the evidence for its benefits isn't solid yet. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, skip it — the data doesn't support safety.

Talk to your pharmacist about your goals and whether this fits your situation.

7-Keto DHEA 100 mg by Vital Nutrients: Common Questions

Does 7-Keto DHEA 100 mg by Vital Nutrients 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.
Will 7-keto-DHEA help me lose weight?
The evidence isn't established yet. We don't have reliable proof that it works for obesity, so we can't say yes or no. Talk to your pharmacist about what the current research actually shows.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against it during pregnancy because it's a hormone-related supplement and we don't have enough data. The same goes for breastfeeding — there's no reliable safety information, so it's best avoided.
What side effects should I watch for?
In studies, a small number of people reported nausea and one reported dizziness. There's also a case report of decreased blood cell counts in one man after a week of use, but we don't know how serious that was. Stop and call your pharmacist if anything feels off.
Is this safe to take long-term?
We don't have good long-term safety data. Short-term use looks generally well tolerated in small studies, but if you're thinking about taking it for months or years, talk to your pharmacist first.
What is 7-keto-DHEA?
It's a compound made from DHEA, a hormone your body makes naturally. This version is the 7-keto form, which is a specific chemical variant.
