HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Pregnenolone Complex by Absonutrix

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

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 3 active ingredients.
  • “Pregnenolone Complex” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (100 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Absonutrix Pregnenolone Complex is a liquid with one active ingredient: pregnenolone, a hormone precursor your body naturally makes. Pregnenolone serves as a building block for several other steroid hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and progestin.

The product also contains inactive ingredients (peppermint oil, stevia, potassium sorbate) and water and ethanol as carriers.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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

This is a single-ingredient Pregnenolone product and its label doesn't state a use — see Pregnenolone's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate pregnenolone for any condition listed — alcohol use disorder, Alzheimer's disease, autism spectrum disorder, back pain, and bipolar disorder. That means studies haven't yet established whether it works for these uses.

If you're considering it for a specific health concern, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the current evidence shows.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Pregnenolone

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.

Pregnenolone is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, but it is a hormone with limited human safety data, so use it only under guidance from a healthcare professional. The most common side effects reported in studies include acne, agitation, diarrhea, drowsiness, excitement, hair loss, sweating, and tremor.

Some people have also reported skin rashes, depressive mood changes, and changes in appetite, though it's not always clear these were caused by the supplement. Safety data advises against use during pregnancy due to unknown risks, and there isn't enough safety information to recommend it while breastfeeding — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check

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 — Pregnenolone.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 82 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.

Before you take Absonutrix Pregnenolone Complex, double-check with your pharmacist if you're on estrogens (Moderate interaction), benzodiazepines (Moderate), progestins (Moderate), testosterone (Moderate), or progesterone (Moderate). The liquid also contains ethanol — let us know what you take so we can run it through our full checker.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Pregnenolone Complex with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Pregnenolone Complex5 drug types · 82 drugs

Benzodiazepines

Concomitant use of pregnenolone may reduce the effects of benzodiazepines.
Very preliminary clinical research shows that chronic use of pregnenolone reduces sedative effects of diazepam when compared with chronic use of placebo. This effect may be related to the activity of pregnenolone at GABAA receptors.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Estrogens

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of estrogens.
Pregnenolone is a precursor for several steroid hormones, including estrogens.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Progesterone

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of progesterone.
In humans, some research shows that oral administration of pregnenolone can increase levels of progesterone. However, other research shows no effect on progesterone levels. It is possible the impact of pregnenolone on progesterone levels may be dose dependent.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Progestin

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of progestin.
Pregnenolone is a precursor for several steroid hormones, including progestin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Testosterone

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of testosterone.
Pregnenolone is a precursor for several steroid hormones, including testosterone. However, preliminary clinical research shows that taking pregnenolone 30-500 mg orally daily for up to 8 weeks does not affect testosterone levels.

Pregnenolone Complex by Absonutrix: Common Questions

Does Pregnenolone Complex by Absonutrix interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Pregnenolone Complex has a known interaction with 82 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Pregnenolone Complex contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 is pregnenolone and what does it do in the body?
Pregnenolone is a hormone your body naturally produces. It's a precursor — a building block — for several other steroid hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and progestin. This supplement provides pregnenolone to theoretically boost those hormone levels.
Can I take this while I'm on birth control or hormone replacement therapy?
Pregnenolone may enhance the effects of estrogens in birth control and HRT, which could increase your risk of hormone-related side effects. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before combining them — your dose might need adjustment.
Will this affect my anti-anxiety or sleep medication?
Yes. Pregnenolone may reduce how well benzodiazepines (like diazepam) work, meaning you might not get the same calming or sedative effect. Your doctor may need to adjust your dose. Always check before starting.
Is pregnenolone safe to use while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy because the risks are unknown. There also isn't enough safety information to recommend it while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
What side effects might I experience?
The most common side effects reported include acne, agitation, diarrhea, drowsiness, excitement, hair loss, sweating, and tremor. Some people have reported skin rashes, mood changes, and changes in appetite, though it's unclear if pregnenolone caused them.
Does this product contain any fillers or other inactive ingredients?
Yes. Besides pregnenolone, the liquid contains peppermint oil, stevia, potassium sorbate (a preservative), water, and ethanol as inactive ingredients.
