HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Algoran Energy & Rejuvenation by Marine Technology Corp
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
Algoran Energy & Rejuvenation has 3 active ingredients. Rhodiola rosea is an herbal adaptogen traditionally used for stress and fatigue.
Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia), also called Eurycoma longifolia, is a Southeast Asian plant extract marketed for sexual function and athletic performance. Ecklonia cava is a brown seaweed extract that contains polyphenols — compounds studied for cholesterol and general health support.
The product also contains hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, an inert capsule material.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence for these ingredients varies. Tongkat Ali is rated Possibly Effective for sexual desire in males, though the strength of that evidence is limited.
Ecklonia cava is rated Possibly Effective for high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia). Rhodiola has been studied for altitude sickness, anxiety, arrhythmia, and athletic performance, but the evidence for all of these is rated Insufficient — meaning we don't have reliable data to know whether it works.
Tongkat Ali is also rated Possibly Ineffective for athletic performance, and the evidence for its use in back pain, osteoporosis, and diabetes is Insufficient.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Rhodiola is generally well tolerated in the short term, though long-term safety hasn't been well studied. The most common side effects reported are dizziness and changes in saliva production — either too much or too little.
Tongkat Ali is also generally tolerated in short-term studies, but long-term safety is uncertain; it may raise testosterone levels, and if levels go too high, there's a risk of testosterone-related side effects like acne, insulin resistance, and liver toxicity. Ecklonia cava is taken short-term in studies, but long-term safety and its iodine content aren't well established; a small number of trial participants reported nausea, indigestion, diarrhea, or hair loss.
The safety data advises against all three ingredients during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking Algoran Energy & Rejuvenation, double-check any blood pressure-lowering drugs (antihypertensives) you take — Rhodiola may increase the risk of low blood pressure. Also watch for blood sugar-lowering medications (antidiabetes drugs), propranolol (Inderal) or other beta-blockers, immune-suppressing drugs, and any medications cleared by your liver's CYP2C9 enzyme (including losartan).
These are all Moderate or Minor concerns depending on the drug. Use the medication search tool on this page to confirm your prescriptions.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product combines an adaptogen, a testosterone-supporting herb, and a seaweed polyphenol extract. If you take any blood pressure medication, blood sugar medication, propranolol, immune-suppressing drugs, or any other regular prescription, check your exact medications with the tool on this page before starting — the interactions are real and could affect how your drugs work.

Formulation
Tongkat Ali is said to raise testosterone levels, promote muscle strength, and address a number of conditions such as erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, fatigue, and stress. It can also help attain hormonal balance in women. Rhodiola Rosea is most commonly used for increasing energy, endurance, strength, and mental capacity. It is also used as a so-called "adaptogen" to help the body adapt to and resist physical, chemical, and environmental stress.

Algoran Energy & Rejuvenation by Marine Technology Corp Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Algoran Energy & Rejuvenation contains three active ingredients, two of which have documented interactions with medications.
Rhodiola rosea is the source of the most serious concerns — it has Moderate-severity interactions with several drug types, most notably blood pressure-lowering drugs (antihypertensives), where it may increase the risk of low blood pressure (hypotension). Rhodiola also inhibits an enzyme (CYP2C9) that clears certain medications, and a clinical study showed it reduces the breakdown of losartan (Cozaar), a common blood pressure medication, by 21%.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Rhodiola additionally interacts with blood sugar-lowering drugs (antidiabetes medications), immune-suppressing drugs (immunosuppressants), and drugs that depend on a cellular transporter called P-glycoprotein — all Moderate severity, meaning the effect could be clinically meaningful. It also has Minor interactions with two other enzyme systems (CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 substrates), though a clinical study suggests the CYP1A2 effect may not happen at typical doses.
Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) has a documented Moderate interaction with propranolol (Inderal), a beta-blocker heart medication — it may reduce propranolol levels by roughly 29%, weakening its effect. It also has Minor interactions with several enzyme systems (CYP1A2, CYP2C19, and CYP2A6 substrates) and with testosterone itself, which theoretically could increase testosterone levels further.
Ecklonia cava, a seaweed extract, has no interactions documented in our data. Altogether, these interactions span 1,285 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Algoran Energy & Rejuvenation with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Rhodiola rosea
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, taking rhodiola with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
In vitro and animal research shows that rhodiola extract can decrease blood glucose due to alpha-glucosidase activity.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, taking rhodiola with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
In vitro and animal research shows that rhodiola extract inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and might lower blood pressure.
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates
Theoretically, rhodiola might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro research shows that rhodiola inhibits CYP2C9. This effect is highly variable and appears to be dependent on the rhodiola product studied. Also, a clinical study in healthy young males found that taking rhodiola extract 290 mg daily for 14 days reduces the metabolism of losartan, a CYP2C9 substrate, by 21% after 4 hours.
Immunosuppressants
Theoretically, rhodiola use might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In vitro and animal research show that rhodiola has immunostimulatory effects.
Losartan (Cozaar)
Rhodiola might increase the levels and adverse effects of losartan.
A clinical study in healthy young males found that taking rhodiola extract 290 mg daily for 14 days reduces the metabolism of losartan, a CYP2C9 substrate, by 21% after 4 hours.
P-Glycoprotein Substrates
Theoretically, rhodiola might increase levels of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that rhodiola inhibits P-glycoprotein. Theoretically, using rhodiola with P-glycoprotein substrates might increase drug levels and potentially increase the risk of adverse effects.
Antidepressant Drugs
Theoretically, rhodiola might increase the risk of adverse effects when taken with antidepressants.
A review of adverse event reports in Poland identified cases of tachyarrhythmias, myalgia, arthralgia, gum pain, restless leg syndrome, swallowing disorders, and changes in consciousness when rhodiola was taken in combination with paroxetine, escitalopram, fluoxetine, sertraline, trazodone, and/or duloxetine.
Cns Depressants
Theoretically, rhodiola might increase the risk of adverse effects when taken with CNS depressants.
A review of adverse event reports in Poland identified cases of excessive sedation, myoclonus, hypotension, and hallucinations when rhodiola was taken with haloperidol, diazepam, or alprazolam.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, rhodiola might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research shows that rhodiola inhibits CYP1A2. This effect is highly variable and appears to be dependent on the rhodiola product studied. However, a clinical study in healthy young males found that taking rhodiola extract 290 mg daily for 14 days does not inhibit the metabolism of caffeine, a CYP1A2 substrate.
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, rhodiola might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that rhodiola inhibits CYP3A4. This effect is highly variable and appears to be dependent on the rhodiola product studied. However, a clinical study in healthy young males found that taking rhodiola extract 290 mg daily for 14 days does not inhibit the metabolism of midazolam, a CYP3A4 substrate.
Tongkat Ali
Propranolol (Inderal)
Eurycoma longifolia can reduce the levels and clinical effects of propranolol.
A small clinical study in healthy persons shows that taking a single dose of a water-based Eurycoma longifolia extract 200 mg, in combination with a single dose of propranolol 80 mg, reduces the propranolol area under the curve (AUC) by 29%, reduces the peak concentration by 42%, and increases time to peak concentration by 86% when compared with control. Since the elimination half-life of propranolol did not change, it seems that Eurycoma longifolia alters the kinetics of propranolol by decreasing its absorption in the gut, and not by altering its metabolism. It is not known if separating administration will prevent this interaction.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia might increase levels CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that methanolic Eurycoma longifolia root extract weakly inhibits CYP1A2 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2A6 (Cyp2A6) Substrates
Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia might increase levels of CYP2A6 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that methanolic Eurycoma longifolia root extract weakly inhibits CYP2A6 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates
Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia might increase levels of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that methanolic Eurycoma longifolia root extract weakly inhibits CYP2C19 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Testosterone
Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia may further increase levels of testosterone.
A clinical study in aging males with testosterone levels below 300 ng/dL shows that taking a specific water extract of Eurycoma longifolia roots (Physta; Biotropics Malaysia) 100-200 mg daily with breakfast for 12 weeks increases total testosterone levels by 8% to 11% when compared with placebo. It is unclear whether this increase would occur in individuals with normal testosterone levels.
