What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 14 active ingredients.
  • “Behemoth Creatine Power Plexx Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (5,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Behemoth Rapid Cell Drive Matrix” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,800 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Behemoth Lion's Blood Flavor contains 14 ingredients, of which 10 are active. The product is built around multiple forms of creatine — Creatine Monohydrate, Creatine Hydrochloride, Creatine Citrate, and Creatine Ethyl Ester — all meant to support muscle strength and athletic performance.

It also includes L-Taurine for cardiovascular support, Betaine Anhydrous to support homocysteine metabolism, Piperine (black pepper extract) for nutrient absorption, Cinnamon extract for blood sugar support, Beta-Alanine Ethyl Ester for athletic performance, and Gymnema Sylvestre Extract for metabolic function. The remaining active ingredients — Di-Creatine Malate, Tri-Creatine Malate, and Creatinol O Phosphate — are additional creatine delivery forms.

Inactive ingredients include maltodextrin, citric acid, natural and artificial flavor, sucralose, xylitol, silica, and FD&C Red #40.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Homocystinuria — rated "Effective" (Betaine Anhydrous) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Athletic performance — rated "Possibly Effective" (Beta-alanine) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Congestive heart failure (CHF) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Taurine) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Hepatitis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Taurine) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Hyperhomocysteinemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Betaine Anhydrous) (Natural Medicines).

The creatine forms in this product are possibly effective for muscle strength, athletic performance, and sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss), and for certain brain disorders like cerebral creatine deficiency syndromes. They're rated possibly ineffective for Huntington disease and osteopenia.

Beta-Alanine Ethyl Ester is possibly effective for athletic performance and physical performance. L-Taurine is possibly effective for congestive heart failure and hepatitis.

Cinnamon extract, Gymnema Sylvestre Extract, and Piperine all have insufficient evidence in our data to rate them for their intended uses — the science isn't established yet for the conditions they're marketed for. Betaine Anhydrous is effective for homocysteinuria and possibly effective for high homocysteine levels, but evidence is insufficient for the other uses listed.

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 7 of the 7 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 7 of 7.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 7 of 7.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

The creatine ingredients (in all three forms) are generally well tolerated in healthy adults but warrant caution if you have kidney problems — kidney function should be monitored. Common side effects include dehydration, diarrhea, stomach upset, muscle cramps, and water retention.

Rare but serious concerns from case reports include kidney inflammation, rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown), and blood clots, though these are uncommon. Creatine is best avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data.

L-Taurine is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults for up to one year, though long-term safety is less certain. Common side effects are constipation, diarrhea, and stomach discomfort.

Rare allergic reactions have been reported in sensitive individuals. Taurine is likely safe during pregnancy and lactation.

Betaine Anhydrous is generally well tolerated but may cause body odor, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and GI distress; rare cases of brain swelling have been reported. Avoid during pregnancy unless advised by a doctor; use caution while breastfeeding.

Piperine is generally safe in food amounts but concentrated supplements should be used cautiously. At supplement doses, the most common side effect is a burning aftertaste and stomach upset.

Food amounts are likely fine during pregnancy and lactation, but supplement-strength piperine hasn't been well studied. Cinnamon is generally safe in food amounts; high-dose supplements may stress the liver over time due to coumarin content and should be avoided in pregnancy at therapeutic doses.

Beta-Alanine Ethyl Ester commonly causes harmless skin tingling and flushing but avoid during pregnancy and lactation due to lack of safety data. Gymnema is generally well tolerated short-term but can lower blood sugar; rare case reports of liver inflammation exist.

Avoid during pregnancy and lactation.

Piperine17 drug types · 1,019 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to inhibit platelet aggregation. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, can reduce blood glucose levels. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of atorvastatin.
Animal research shows that taking piperine, a constituent of black pepper, 35 mg/kg can increase the maximum serum concentration of atorvastatin three-fold. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the effects and side effects of cyclosporine.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases the bioavailability of cyclosporine. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro research suggests that some constituents of black pepper inhibit CYP2D6. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research and pharmacokinetic simulation data suggest that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, as well as the pepper fruit seem to inhibit CYP3A4. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of lithium due to its diuretic effects. The dose of lithium might need to be reduced.
Black pepper is thought to have diuretic properties.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Nevirapine (Viramune)

Black pepper might increase blood levels of nevirapine.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases the plasma concentration of nevirapine. However, no adverse effects were observed in this study.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, black pepper might increase levels of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to inhibit P-glycoprotein.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the sedative effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases pentobarbital-induced sleeping time.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenytoin (Dilantin)

Black pepper might increase blood levels of phenytoin.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption, slow elimination, and increase levels of phenytoin. Taking a single dose of black pepper 1 gram along with phenytoin seems to double the serum concentration of phenytoin. Consuming a soup with black pepper providing piperine 44 mg/200 mL of soup along with phenytoin also seems to increase phenytoin levels when compared with consuming the same soup without black pepper.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Propranolol (Inderal)

Black pepper might increase blood levels of propranolol.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and slow elimination of propranolol.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Rifampin (Rifadin)

Black pepper might increase blood levels of rifampin.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and serum levels of rifampin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Theophylline

Black pepper might increase blood levels of theophylline.
Clinical research shows that piperine, a constituent of black pepper, seems to increase absorption and slow elimination of theophylline.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Amoxicillin (Amoxil, Trimox)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase the effects and side effects of amoxicillin.
Animal research shows that taking piperine, a constituent of black pepper, with amoxicillin increases plasma levels of amoxicillin. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, black pepper might increase blood levels of carbamazepine, potentially increasing the effects and side effects of carbamazepine.
One clinical study in patients taking carbamazepine 300 mg or 500 mg twice daily shows that taking a single 20 mg dose of purified piperine, a constituent of black pepper, increases carbamazepine levels. Piperine may increase carbamazepine absorption by increasing blood flow to the GI tract, increasing the surface area of the small intestine, or inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) in the gut wall. Absorption was significantly increased by 7-10 mcg/mL/hour. The time to eliminate carbamazepine was also increased by 4-8 hours. Although carbamazepine levels were increased, this did not appear to increase side effects. In vitro research also shows that piperine can increase carbamazepine levels by 11% in a time-dependent manner.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, black pepper might decrease levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro research suggests that black pepper induces CYP1A2. This has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Piperine full monograph & interactions

Gymnema Sylvestre Extract6 drug types · 851 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking gymnema with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Gymnema reduces blood glucose levels in some human and animal research. In human studies, it has been shown to enhance the blood glucose lowering effects of hypoglycemic drugs. However, other research in adults with prediabetes or metabolic syndrome suggests that gymnema does not reduce fasting levels of blood glucose. Until more is known, monitor blood glucose levels closely.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, gymnema might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Animal and in vitro research shows that gymnema can inhibit the CYP1A2 enzyme. In one animal study, oral administration of gymnema for 7 days increased the plasma concentrations of phenacetin, a CYP1A2 substrate, by about 1.4-fold and reduced the clearance of phenacetin by about 29%.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, gymnema might increase or decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
Animal research shows that gymnema can induce the CYP2C9 enzyme. In one animal study, gymnema caused a 2.4-fold increase in the clearance of tolbutamide, a CYP2C9 substrate, in rats. In vitro research also shows that gymnema can inhibit CYP2C9.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenacetin

Theoretically, taking gymnema with phenacetin might increase the levels of phenacetin.
Animal research shows that gymnema, administered orally for 7 days, decreases the clearance of phenacetin in a dose-dependent manner by about 21% to 29% and increases plasma levels about 1.3- to 1.4-fold when compared to control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tolbutamide (Orinase)

Theoretically, taking gymnema with tolbutamide might the decrease levels of tolbutamide.
Animal research shows that gymnema, administered orally for 7 days, increases the clearance of tolbutamide by 2.4-fold when compared to control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, gymnema might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
One in vitro study using rat liver microsomes shows that gymnema can modestly inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme. However, other in vitro research using human liver microsomes shows that gymnema does not affect CYP3A4 activity. Animal research also shows that gymnema does not alter the function of CYP3A4. In one study in rats, oral administration of gymnema for 7 days did not alter the clearance of amlodipine, a CYP3A4 substrate.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Gymnema Sylvestre Extract full monograph & interactions

Cinnamon extract2 drug types · 442 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, cassia cinnamon may have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Cassia cinnamon may lower blood glucose levels, and have additive effects in patients treated with antidiabetic agents. Dose adjustments to diabetes medications might be necessary.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, large doses of cassia cinnamon might cause additive effects when used with hepatotoxic drugs.
There is some concern that ingesting large amounts of cassia cinnamon for an extended duration might cause hepatotoxicity in some people. Cassia cinnamon contains coumarin, which can cause hepatotoxicity in animal models. In humans, very high doses of coumarin from 50-7000 mg/day can result in hepatotoxicity that resolves when coumarin use is discontinued. Lower amounts might also cause liver problems in sensitive people, such as those with liver disease or those taking potentially hepatotoxic agents.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cinnamon extract full monograph & interactions

L-Taurine2 drug types · 173 drugs

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taurine might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Some clinical evidence suggests that taurine can reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, taurine might reduce excretion and increase plasma levels of lithium.
Taurine is thought to have diuretic properties, which might reduce the excretion of lithium.

Behemoth Lion's Blood Flavor by Aggressive Labz: Common Questions

Does Behemoth Lion's Blood Flavor by Aggressive Labz interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Behemoth Lion's Blood Flavor has a known interaction with 1,282 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Behemoth Lion's Blood Flavor contains 14 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
What does the creatine in this do?
Creatine helps your muscles produce energy during intense exercise, which may improve muscle strength and athletic performance. It's possibly effective for those purposes and also for helping preserve muscle mass as you age. The product includes four different creatine forms — all aimed at the same goal.
What's the piperine (black pepper) for?
Piperine is included to boost how much of the other ingredients your body absorbs and retains. The downside is that it also increases absorption of certain medications, which is why it's important to check any prescriptions you're taking.
Is it safe if I have kidney problems?
No — the creatine in this product requires caution if you have kidney issues. Creatine is filtered by your kidneys, so if kidney function is already compromised, it may accumulate and cause harm. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using it.
Can I use this while pregnant or nursing?
No. Safety data doesn't support use during pregnancy or breastfeeding for most of the active ingredients here, particularly the creatine forms and beta-alanine. Talk to your doctor before considering it.
What's the most common side effect?
Beta-alanine commonly causes harmless skin tingling and flushing, usually starting on the scalp and lasting about an hour. Creatine often causes water retention, mild stomach upset, or diarrhea. Body odor is possible from betaine. These usually go away or are tolerable.
Will this lower my blood sugar?
Possibly. Cinnamon and Gymnema Sylvestre both can lower blood glucose levels in some people. If you take diabetes medications, this combination could push your blood sugar too low. Check with your pharmacist or doctor before using it.
