HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Maxon Pure Strength by iSatori
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
Maxon Pure Strength contains four active ingredients. Agmatine sulfate is an amino acid compound; Kre-Alkalyn is a pH-buffered form of creatine, a compound that supports muscle energy and strength; fenugreek is a plant seed used traditionally to support blood sugar and sexual function; and ancient peat extract and apple extract round out the formula.
The product also contains several inactive ingredients — microcrystalline cellulose, corn starch, and other binders and coatings — that help hold the capsule together.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Creatine is possibly effective for building muscle strength and improving athletic performance, and it's possibly effective for sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). For the other ingredients in this product — agmatine, fenugreek, and the peat and apple extracts — we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate whether they work for athletic performance, muscle building, or any other stated purpose.
The data on file shows mainly insufficient evidence for agmatine across most uses.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Creatine is generally well tolerated in healthy adults, but if you have kidney problems, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first. The most common side effects are mild: dehydration, diarrhea, stomach upset, muscle cramps, and water retention.
Agmatine appears well tolerated short-term; diarrhea, indigestion, and nausea were the main side effects reported in small studies and usually went away when people stopped taking it. Fenugreek is generally well tolerated in food amounts, but supplement doses can cause abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, indigestion, gas, nausea, and rarely severe allergic reactions.
For pregnancy: agmatine and creatine don't have enough safety data, so it's best to avoid both. Fenugreek is considered likely unsafe in pregnancy — supplement amounts may affect the uterus.
For breastfeeding: agmatine and creatine lack enough information; fenugreek is possibly safe but limited in evidence, so discuss with your provider first.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants) or clopidogrel (Plavix) — fenugreek may increase bleeding risk. Also flag blood pressure medications, diabetes drugs (both agmatine and fenugreek can lower blood sugar and blood pressure further), theophylline, phenytoin, or sildenafil.
If you have kidney disease, mention that too, since creatine requires caution there.
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 is a multi-ingredient strength and performance supplement with some research support for creatine's effects on muscle and athletic output — but several ingredients carry important interactions with blood thinners, diabetes meds, blood pressure drugs, and others. If you take any regular prescription medications, especially for blood clotting, blood sugar, or blood pressure, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Anyone pregnant or breastfeeding should also clear it first.

Maxon Pure Strength by iSatori Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Maxon Pure Strength by iSatori contains agmatine sulfate, creatine, and fenugreek — three ingredients with documented interactions.
The most serious concern is with fenugreek and blood thinners (anticoagulants) like warfarin, where fenugreek may add to the blood-thinning effect and raise your INR (a measure of how thin your blood is). This is a Moderate severity interaction.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Fenugreek also interacts with several other drug types at Moderate severity: diabetes medications (it can lower blood sugar further), theophylline (a breathing medication it may weaken), antiplatelet drugs like clopidogrel, blood pressure medications including metoprolol, phenytoin (a seizure drug it may reduce), and sildenafil for erectile dysfunction. Agmatine carries Moderate interactions with blood pressure medications and diabetes drugs — both through effects that could deepen how those drugs work.
We could not check the safety data for ancient peat extract and apple extract.
Altogether, these interactions span 389 individual medications. Before you start this product, check your exact medications with the tool on this page — especially if you take blood thinners, diabetes medicines, or blood pressure drugs.

For each ingredient in Maxon Pure Strength 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.
Fenugreek
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, fenugreek might have additive effects when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Some of the constituents in fenugreek have antiplatelet effects in animal and in vitro research. However, common fenugreek products might not contain sufficient concentrations of these constituents for clinical effects. A clinical study in patients with coronary artery disease or diabetes shows that taking fenugreek seed powder 2.5 grams twice daily for 3 months does not affect platelet aggregation, fibrinolytic activity, or fibrinogen levels .
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, fenugreek seed might have additive hypoglycemic effects when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Clinical research shows that fenugreek seed can reduce fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes.
Clopidogrel (Plavix)
Theoretically, fenugreek seed might alter the clinical effects of clopidogrel by inhibiting its conversion to the active form.
Animal research shows that fenugreek seed 200 mg/kg daily for 14 days increases the maximum serum concentration of clopidogrel by 21%. It is unclear how this affects the pharmacokinetics of the active metabolite of clopidogrel; however, this study found that concomitant use of fenugreek seed and clopidogrel prolonged bleeding time by an additional 11%.
Metoprolol (Toprol)
Theoretically, fenugreek seed might have additive hypotensive effects when used with metoprolol.
Animal research shows that fenugreek seed 300 mg/kg daily for 2 weeks decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 9% and 11%, respectively, when administered alone, and by 15% and 22%, respectively, when given with metoprolol 10 mg/kg.
Phenytoin (Dilantin)
Theoretically, fenugreek might decrease plasma levels of phenytoin.
Animal research shows that taking fenugreek seeds for 1 week decreases maximum concentrations and the area under the curve of a single dose of phenytoin by 44% and 72%, respectively. This seems to be related to increased clearance. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Sildenafil (Viagra)
Theoretically, concurrent use of sildenafil and fenugreek might reduce levels and therapeutic effects of sildenafil.
Animal research shows that taking fenugreek seeds for 1 week reduces maximum concentrations and the area under the curve of a single dose of sildenafil by 27% and 48%, respectively. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.
Theophylline
Theoretically, fenugreek may reduce the levels and clinical effects of theophylline.
Animal research shows that fenugreek 50 grams daily for 7 days reduces the maximum serum concentration (Cmax) of theophylline by 28% and the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC) by 22%.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, fenugreek might have additive effects with warfarin and increase the international normalized ratio (INR).
Some fenugreek constituents have antiplatelet effects, although these might not be present in concentrations that are clinically significant. In one case report, a patient taking warfarin experienced an increased INR when starting to take fenugreek in combination with boldo.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Fenugreek may also have an additive effect on blood pressure-lowering medications. Studies on animals have shown that fenugreek seed can decrease both systolic and diastolic blood pressure by up to 22% when combined with metoprolol. Therefore, it is essential to monitor your blood pressure regularly if you are taking fenugreek and metoprolol together or any other antihypertensive drugs.
Agmatine Sulfate
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, agmatine might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal and in vitro research suggest that agmatine has mild hypoglycemic effects.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, agmatine might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that agmatine can modestly decrease heart rate and blood pressure.
