HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Kong by Medfit RX

Four independent checks of what is known — a summary of the available information, not a grade of the product itself.

Evidence for Intended Use
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

The stated purpose hasn't been mapped to our evidence data yet.

Why this rating?
  • We haven't mapped this product's purpose to our evidence data yet — it'll be graded on the next content refresh.
Ingredient Transparency
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 5 of its 5 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.
Known Interaction Concern
Moderate identified

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

Why this rating?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Ostarine, Ligandrol, Testolone.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 612 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.
Safety Information
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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

MK-28666 drug types · 611 drugs

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Inducers

Theoretically, concomitant use of ostarine with CYP3A4 inducers could decrease the clinical effects of ostarine.
Ostarine is partially metabolized by CYP3A4. Clinical research shows that taking rifampin, a potent inducer of CYP3A4, reduces the maximum plasma concentration of ostarine by 23% and the area under the curve by 43%.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use with hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of adverse hepatotoxic effects.
Some clinical research shows that ostarine can increase alanine aminotransferase, a marker of liver damage, in some patients. Additionally, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns that supplements containing SARMs, such as ostarine, have been associated with reports of liver toxicity and there are at least two reports of drug-induced liver injury attributed to the use of ostarine.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Probenecid (Benemid)

Theoretically, concomitant use of ostarine with probenecid could increase the effects and adverse effects of ostarine.
Clinical research shows that probenecid increases ostarine levels and slows the clearance of ostarine, likely via inhibition of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT). Ostarine is partially metabolized by UGT.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Rifampin (Rifadin)

Theoretically, concomitant use of ostarine with rifampin could decrease the clinical effects of ostarine.
Clinical research shows that taking rifampin with ostarine reduces the maximum plasma concentration of ostarine by 23% and the area under the curve by 43%. Ostarine is partially metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), and rifampin is a potent CYP3A4 inducer.

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

Theoretically, ostarine might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9, although clinical research suggests this is not clinically relevant.
Although in vitro research suggests that ostarine inhibits CYP2C9, more robust clinical research shows that ostarine does not significantly affect CYP2C9.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Inhibitors

Theoretically, concomitant use of ostarine with CYP3A4 inhibitors could increase the effects and adverse effects of ostarine, although this is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Ostarine is partially metabolized by CYP3A4. However, clinical research shows that taking itraconazole, a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4, had minimal effects on the levels of ostarine in the body.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B

RAD 1401 drug type · 370 drugs

Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use might have additive hepatotoxic effects.
In a case report, a 52-year-old male was diagnosed with liver injury thought to be related to the use of products containing testolone. Also, elevated liver enzymes were commonly reported in a dose escalation study of testolone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B

LGD-40331 drug type · 370 drugs

Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use might have additive hepatotoxic effects.
In case reports, patients were diagnosed with liver injury thought to be related to the use of products containing ligandrol.
