HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tongkat Ali Extract LJ100-Longjack 100 mg by Double Wood Supplements

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

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.

This product contains one active ingredient: LJ100 Eurycoma longifolia extract at 100 mg per capsule. Eurycoma longifolia, also called Tongkat Ali or Longjack, is a plant extract traditionally used to support male sexual function and general vitality.

The product is filled out with non-GMO rice flour and housed in a vegetable cellulose capsule.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: libido enhancement and cortisol reduction.
  • We looked for evidence on: Erectile dysfunction (ED), Sexual desire, Age-related testosterone deficiency, stress reduction, mood support, male sexual function.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Eurycoma Longifolia is rated "Possibly Effective" for Sexual desire (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Eurycoma Longifolia is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Erectile dysfunction (ED), Age-related testosterone deficiency.

The evidence we hold shows Eurycoma longifolia is possibly effective for sexual desire. For athletic performance, the data suggests it's probably ineffective.

For back pain, osteoporosis, and diabetes, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate how well it works. If sexual desire support is what you're after, there's some clinical backing; for other uses, the picture is unclear.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Eurycoma Longifolia

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.

Short-term use is generally well tolerated in studies, though long-term safety and the consistency of different products on the market aren't well established. There's a caution worth knowing: the extract can increase testosterone levels.

If that pushes your testosterone beyond the normal range, you may develop testosterone-related side effects such as acne, insulin resistance, or liver effects. Because of possible hormonal effects and limited safety data, avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
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 — Eurycoma Longifolia.
  • 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.

If you take propranolol (Inderal) for your heart or blood pressure, this is the biggest one to check with your doctor or pharmacist first—the extract can reduce how well it works. You should also double-check any medications metabolized by CYP1A2, CYP2C19, or CYP2A6 enzymes in your liver, and if you're on testosterone replacement therapy, because the extract may raise testosterone further.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

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.

Tongkat Ali is an option if you're interested in support for sexual desire and don't take propranolol or other medications that depend on those liver enzymes. If you're on any prescription medication—especially heart drugs, testosterone therapy, or anything your liver processes—talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist before you start.

Long-term safety isn't as well studied, so this is more of a short-term support supplement.

LJ100 Eurycoma longifolia extract5 drug types · 248 drugs

Propranolol (Inderal)

Eurycoma longifolia can reduce the levels and clinical effects of propranolol.
A small clinical study in healthy persons shows that taking a single dose of a water-based Eurycoma longifolia extract 200 mg, in combination with a single dose of propranolol 80 mg, reduces the propranolol area under the curve (AUC) by 29%, reduces the peak concentration by 42%, and increases time to peak concentration by 86% when compared with control. Since the elimination half-life of propranolol did not change, it seems that Eurycoma longifolia alters the kinetics of propranolol by decreasing its absorption in the gut, and not by altering its metabolism. It is not known if separating administration will prevent this interaction.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia might increase levels CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that methanolic Eurycoma longifolia root extract weakly inhibits CYP1A2 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2A6 (Cyp2A6) Substrates

Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia might increase levels of CYP2A6 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that methanolic Eurycoma longifolia root extract weakly inhibits CYP2A6 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia might increase levels of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that methanolic Eurycoma longifolia root extract weakly inhibits CYP2C19 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Testosterone

Theoretically, Eurycoma longifolia may further increase levels of testosterone.
A clinical study in aging males with testosterone levels below 300 ng/dL shows that taking a specific water extract of Eurycoma longifolia roots (Physta; Biotropics Malaysia) 100-200 mg daily with breakfast for 12 weeks increases total testosterone levels by 8% to 11% when compared with placebo. It is unclear whether this increase would occur in individuals with normal testosterone levels.

Tongkat Ali Extract LJ100-Longjack 100 mg by Double Wood Supplements: Common Questions

Does Tongkat Ali Extract LJ100-Longjack 100 mg by Double Wood Supplements interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tongkat Ali Extract LJ100-Longjack 100 mg 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?
Tongkat Ali Extract LJ100-Longjack 100 mg 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No—the safety data isn't there, and because the extract can affect hormone levels, it's best to avoid it both during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about what's safe for you.
Does this actually improve sexual desire?
The evidence shows it's possibly effective for sexual desire, so there is some clinical backing. For other uses like athletic performance, the evidence suggests it probably won't help, and for back pain, osteoporosis, and diabetes, we don't have enough reliable data to say one way or the other.
What are the side effects?
In short-term studies, it's generally well tolerated. The main risk is if it raises your testosterone too high—that can lead to acne, insulin resistance, liver effects, and other testosterone-related issues. Long-term safety isn't as well studied.
Can I take this long-term?
The studies we have focus on short-term use, and long-term safety isn't well established. Product quality can also vary between brands. If you're thinking about using it regularly, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.
What's LJ100?
LJ100 is a standardized extract of Eurycoma longifolia root, also called Tongkat Ali. It's a plant extract that's been studied for its effects on male sexual function and testosterone levels.
