HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Epitren by Centurion Labz

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Epitren contains two active ingredients. The product includes Epistane, which is structurally related to anabolic steroids — compounds that mimic testosterone in the body.

We also cannot verify the safety profile of Estra-4,9,11-Triene-3,17-Dione because we hold no data for it. The capsules themselves are filled with gelatin and rice flour as inactive ingredients.

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 Epistane's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: muscle building and strength development.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle damage, Muscle strength, Lean body mass, Power output.
  • The closest evidence on file: Epistane is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Epistane is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Muscle strength, Exercise-induced muscle damage.

The evidence we hold on these ingredients is insufficient to rate them for any claimed use — including athletic performance, muscle strength, sexual function, or weight loss. There's no reliable data establishing whether either ingredient actually works for these purposes.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Epistane

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.

This is important: Epistane is a liver-toxic anabolic steroid, not a dietary supplement, and is banned for sale as a dietary supplement in the United States. The safety data advises strongly against it during pregnancy and breastfeeding because anabolic steroids can harm a developing baby and pose risk to nursing infants.

Beyond that, Epistane carries a documented risk of liver damage — there's concern about hepatotoxic effects, and a case series found that a structurally similar steroid caused severe liver injury, jaundice, and itching in four patients that didn't respond well to standard treatment.

Meds to double-check

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 — Epistane.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 371 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 any medication that can stress your liver (hepatotoxic drugs), check with your doctor or pharmacist before using Epitren — the Epistane content may add to that risk. For any other medications, use the interaction search tool on this page to verify there's no documented concern.

Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use might have additive adverse hepatotoxic effects.
Epistane is an anabolic androgenic steroid, and more specifically a 17-alpha-alkylated androgen. Therefore, there is concern that epistane has hepatotoxic effects. Also, epistane is structurally similar to epitiostanol, which has been associated with hepatotixicity in a case series of four patients.

Epitren by Centurion Labz: Common Questions

Does Epitren by Centurion Labz interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Epitren has a known interaction with 370 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Epitren contains 2 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.
Is Epitren safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against anabolic steroids during pregnancy because they can harm a developing baby, and they shouldn't be used while breastfeeding due to risk to the infant. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing, talk with your doctor before considering this product.
What does Epistane actually do?
Epistane is structurally similar to anabolic steroids — compounds that mimic testosterone. It's sometimes used in athletic and bodybuilding circles, but the reliable evidence we hold is insufficient to rate it for athletic performance, muscle strength, or any other claimed use.
Can Epitren hurt my liver?
Yes, there's a documented concern. Epistane is a 17-alpha-alkylated androgen with hepatotoxic (liver-damaging) properties. A structurally similar steroid caused severe liver injury, jaundice, and itching in four patients that didn't respond well to standard treatment. If you have liver disease or take medications that stress your liver, this is a serious red flag — talk with your doctor first.
Why is Epistane banned if it's in this product?
Epistane is a liver-toxic anabolic steroid that's banned for sale as a dietary supplement. This product shouldn't be sold in that category, and the safety and legal status are genuine concerns you should discuss with your doctor or pharmacist.
