HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Andriol by HTP Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals

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.

Andriol contains one active ingredient: 4-androsterone undecanoate, a prohormone that your body may break down into testosterone and related androgens. The tablet also holds several inactive ingredients—microcrystalline cellulose, various medium-chain fatty acids (caprylic, caproic, capric, and lauric acids), beta-cyclodextrin, phytosterols, and silica—which serve as fillers, binders, and absorption enhancers.

Does it work?

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

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: testosterone replenishment and androgen elevation.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

The product facts we have don't include effectiveness ratings for 4-androsterone. That means the evidence for whether it actually works as intended isn't established in the data we hold.

If you're considering this product, that's worth discussing with us or your doctor before you buy.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient 4-androsterone

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.

Here's what matters: prohormones like this one can disrupt your natural hormone balance, put stress on your liver, and shift your cholesterol levels—and the long-term safety picture isn't well studied. The ingredient may theoretically cause serious side effects similar to anabolic steroids, including stroke, kidney failure, and liver injury, though detailed adverse effect data is limited.

Don't use Andriol if you're pregnant—androgenic hormones can harm a developing baby. If you're breastfeeding, avoid it too; the hormonal effects on an infant aren't known and could be harmful.

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

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — 4-androsterone.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 8 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take testosterone replacement therapy or any testosterone product, do not start Andriol without checking first—Moderate interaction risk. Use the medication checker on this page to verify your prescriptions and any over-the-counter testosterone products before you begin.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Andriol is a prohormone product meant to boost testosterone levels, but safety data is sparse and hormone-disrupting effects are a real concern. If you take testosterone therapy, this product poses a documented Moderate interaction risk.

Anyone considering it should check with their pharmacist about their exact medications and talk with their doctor about whether the benefits outweigh the unknowns.
