HelloPharmacist Scorecard of SARM GW-501516 by DNA Anabolics
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
DNA Anabolics' SARM GW-501516 is a single-ingredient capsule containing cardarine, a research compound sometimes used for athletic performance and metabolic support. The product also holds rice flour, magnesium stearate, and gelatin as inactive binders and capsule material.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence on cardarine for athletic performance, blood sugar control (diabetes), and weight management (obesity) is insufficient — we do not have reliable data to rate whether it works for these purposes. If you are considering it for any of these aims, talk with your doctor about what science actually supports and what safer, proven options exist.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Animal studies have linked cardarine to cancer risk, and it is neither approved nor proven safe for human use. The safety data we hold advises against use during pregnancy due to unknown safety and known toxicity concerns.
The same caution applies to breastfeeding — there is not enough data on safety, and serious toxicity concerns exist. No trial-based side-effect frequencies are on file for this product.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredient we could check. That does not mean none exist — it means we have not identified drug-level concerns.
Before taking this product alongside any medication, check with your own pharmacist or doctor.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and some safety-information gaps remain.
This is an unapproved research compound with animal cancer signals and no human safety proof. If you are thinking about taking it, talk with your own doctor or pharmacist first — they can help you weigh the unknowns and explore alternatives with a real safety track record.
