Ecdysterone and RAD-140 Interaction

Avoid
Mechanism-based 53% confidence

Ecdysterone and RAD-140 have a potentially harmful interaction with 53% confidence. Both Ecdysterone and RAD-140 carry hepatotoxic risk. Combining hepatotoxic compounds significantly increases liver damage potential. If unavoidable, include liver support (TUDCA/NAC) and monitor ALT/AST frequently. Both compounds affect the gonads and liver and heart, so monitoring these systems is recommended.

Compound Profiles

Ecdysterone

Phytoecdysteroid | Natural Anabolic & Performance Enhancer

Ecdysterone's anabolic mechanism is fundamentally distinct from that of anabolic-androgenic steroids. Rather than binding to the androgen receptor, ecdysterone exerts its effects primarily through estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) signaling.

Half-life: ~4-9 hours Typical dose: 500-1000 mg/day (oral) or 50-100 mg/day (injectable) anabolic

RAD-140

Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator | Investigational SARM

RAD-140 binds to the androgen receptor (AR) with high affinity and selectivity, functioning as a full agonist in muscle and bone tissue while exhibiting minimal agonist activity in the prostate and other androgen-sensitive tissues. This tissue selectivity is achieved through differential cofactor recruitment: upon binding to the AR, RAD-140 induces a conformational change that favors interaction with coactivators predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and bone, rather than those prevalent in prostate or sebaceous glands.

Shared Safety Flags

2x 2 androgenic compounds (Ecdysterone, RAD-140). Additive androgenic load — increased risk of hair loss, acne, prostate effects.
2x 2 hepatotoxic compounds (Ecdysterone, RAD-140). Liver damage risk significantly increased. Include liver support (TUDCA/NAC) and monitor ALT/AST.
2x 2 HPTA-suppressive compounds (Ecdysterone, RAD-140). Deep hormonal shutdown expected — plan extended PCT.
2x 2 compounds disrupt lipids (Ecdysterone, RAD-140). Get lipid panel mid-cycle — consider adding lipid support.
