HelloPharmacist Scorecard of TeaCrine 5 grams by Nootropics Depot

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 17, 2026

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

TeaCrine contains one active ingredient: theacrine, a naturally occurring alkaloid structurally similar to caffeine. The product also includes calcium silicate as an inactive ingredient to keep the powder flowing.

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 Theacrine product and its label doesn't state a use — see Theacrine'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.

The evidence for theacrine's effectiveness isn't established in our data. We hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for athletic performance, cognitive function, fatigue, mental alertness, or muscle strength.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means human studies haven't yet built a solid case either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Theacrine

How safe is it?

Limited data
Safety Information · database check
Limited information

Little studied safety information is available for these ingredients — that is not the same as being safe.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 0 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.

Short-term use of theacrine appears generally well tolerated in studies, but long-term safety hasn't been established, so we don't know what happens with extended use. There isn't enough safety data to know whether theacrine is safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding — the safety data advises against use in both situations.

If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.

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 — Theacrine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 248 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.

Check before taking this product if you use CNS depressants — medications that make you sleepy or calm, such as sedatives, sleep aids, or anti-anxiety drugs. Theacrine might increase or decrease their effects depending on the dose, though this hasn't been confirmed in people yet.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is limited.

TeaCrine is a single-ingredient powder of theacrine, an alkaloid similar to caffeine. The main concern is a documented but unconfirmed interaction with CNS depressants — drugs that slow your brain activity.

If you take any sleep aids, sedatives, or anti-anxiety medications, check with your doctor or pharmacist first. Long-term safety data is limited, so short-term use is what we know most about.

TeaCrine 5 grams by Nootropics Depot: Common Questions

Does TeaCrine 5 grams by Nootropics Depot interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, TeaCrine 5 grams has a known interaction with 248 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
TeaCrine 5 grams 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.
Is theacrine like caffeine?
Theacrine is structurally similar to caffeine, but they're not identical. Both are alkaloids — plant-derived compounds — but we don't have reliable evidence yet on how well theacrine works for boosting energy, focus, or athletic performance.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against it — there isn't enough information to know whether theacrine is safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you in these situations.
Is it safe to take long-term?
Short-term use appears generally well tolerated in studies, but long-term safety hasn't been established. If you're thinking about using this for more than a few weeks, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.
What does theacrine actually do?
We don't have reliable evidence yet on what theacrine does for athletic performance, cognitive function, fatigue, mental alertness, or muscle strength. Human studies haven't yet shown a clear, solid effect — that's what 'insufficient evidence' means on a supplement like this.
Are there any side effects reported?
No adverse effects are documented in our data for theacrine, but that doesn't mean none exist — it means the data we hold doesn't list them. If you experience anything unusual after taking it, let your doctor or pharmacist know.
