HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 7-Keto DHEA 25 mg by DC

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 related to DHEA (a hormone your body makes naturally). The capsule also includes inactive ingredients — rice flour, vegetable polysaccharide, and vegetable magnesium stearate — which are fillers and binders.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see 7-keto-dhea's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: anti-aging and metabolic support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Aging, Muscle strength, Obesity, body composition, metabolism.
  • The closest evidence on file: 7-keto-dhea is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Aging skin (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: 7-keto-dhea is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Muscle strength, Obesity, Aging.

The evidence for 7-keto DHEA isn't established yet. Research on this ingredient for post-traumatic stress disorder, obesity, depression, Raynaud syndrome, and aging all shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate how well it works.

That means we don't have enough solid data to say whether it delivers on those claims.

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 tolerated in small studies, but long-term safety isn't well established — we just don't have enough information from prolonged use. A few trial participants reported nausea or vertigo, and one case report noted decreased hemoglobin and hematocrit (oxygen-carrying capacity in blood) in someone taking 25 mg twice daily for a week, though the clinical significance isn't clear.

The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding because hormone-related supplements aren't well studied in those situations.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient 7-keto-dhea

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database 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 in our data for 7-keto DHEA. Check your exact medications with the search tool on this page to be certain, since research on this ingredient is still limited.

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.

If you're curious about 7-keto DHEA for one of the conditions mentioned in the research, know that evidence doesn't yet support its use. Long-term safety is unknown, and it's off-limits during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Talk to your pharmacist about whether this is right for your situation.

7-Keto DHEA 25 mg by DC: Common Questions

Does 7-Keto DHEA 25 mg by DC interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in 7-Keto DHEA 25 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
7-Keto DHEA 25 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.
Does 7-keto DHEA work for weight loss?
The evidence isn't established. Studies on 7-keto DHEA for obesity show insufficient reliable evidence to know whether it actually works.
Can I take this while pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy because there isn't enough safety data, and hormone-related supplements are best avoided during pregnancy.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
No. There's no reliable safety information available, so it's best avoided while breastfeeding.
What side effects might I experience?
In studies, a small number of participants reported nausea or vertigo. One case report described decreased hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in someone taking 25 mg twice daily, though the clinical significance isn't clear.
How long is it safe to take 7-keto DHEA?
Short-term use appears generally tolerated in small studies, but long-term safety is not well established. We don't have enough data on what happens with extended use.
