EHP Labs OxyShred Hardcore is the higher-caffeine version of OxyShred — a sugar-free flavoured supplement drink with 275 mg caffeine per 7.1 g scoop. A high-stimulant product: assess your tolerance. Dietary supplement, not a weight-loss product.
The higher-caffeine OxyShred
275 mg of caffeine per scoop. EHP Labs OxyShred Hardcore is a sugar-free flavoured supplement drink mix made by EHP Labs (Australia), built around 275 mg of caffeine per 7.1 g scoop — roughly double the 150 mg in standard OxyShred Ultra Concentration. It carries the wider OxyShred ingredient family (amino acids, plant extracts and B-group vitamins) and comes in 40 serves. It is a dietary supplement and a high-stimulant product — not a weight-loss product and not a medicine.
⚠ High-stimulant product — read first
Each scoop contains 275 mg of caffeine — a high dose, roughly the caffeine of three cups of coffee, in a single serve. Assess your tolerance with half a scoop, don't take it late in the day, and don't combine it with other caffeinated products or stimulants. Not suitable if you are caffeine-sensitive, under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding, or have high blood pressure, a heart condition or any medical condition.
- 275 mg caffeine per scoop — from caffeine anhydrous plus guarana seed extract. Caffeine is a stimulant that supports alertness; this is one of the higher per-serve caffeine doses on the market.
- The "Hardcore" step up from OxyShred — roughly double the caffeine of standard OxyShred (150 mg), made for people who already tolerate strong caffeine doses.
- Sugar-free flavoured drink — 0.1 g sugar and 63 kJ per serve, sweetened with sucralose, in flavours such as Grape Bubblegum, Cola and Sour Creepy Crawlies.
- The OxyShred ingredient family — includes acetyl L-carnitine, GPLC (GlycoCarn), L-tyrosine, taurine, green coffee bean and guarana extracts, plus Vitamin C and a B-vitamin complex. Every ingredient is printed on the panel.
- 40 serves per tub — a 7.1 g scoop mixes into cold water in seconds.
What makes it "Hardcore"
The difference is the caffeine. OxyShred Hardcore evolved from OxyShred Ultra Concentration, and the headline change is the stimulant load: 275 mg of caffeine per 7.1 g scoop from caffeine anhydrous and guarana seed extract, versus 150 mg in the standard formula. Caffeine is a stimulant that supports alertness. Because the dose is high, this version is aimed at experienced caffeine users — not first-timers.
It carries the wider OxyShred ingredient list. Alongside the caffeine, the formula includes acetyl L-carnitine, glycine propionyl-L-carnitine (GPLC GlycoCarn), L-tyrosine, taurine and L-glutamine, plus plant extracts — green coffee bean (50% chlorogenic acid), guarana, bitter orange, raspberry ketones, evodiamine and huperzia serrata (1% huperzine A). The manufacturer does not publish the individual amounts of these actives, so we list them as ingredients rather than attaching a dose or a benefit to each.
It's also fortified with vitamins. Each serve provides 248 mg Vitamin C (551% RDI), plus thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), B6, B12 and pantothenic acid (B5), and 12 µg of chromium. These are nutrient amounts from the panel, listed for transparency.
To be clear about what it is: OxyShred Hardcore is a strong caffeinated supplement drink. It is not a weight-loss product and not a medicine, and it won't change your body composition on its own — that comes from your overall diet, training and consistency.

How to use
- Assess tolerance first. Start with half a scoop (about 140 mg caffeine) in 250–350 ml of cold water to see how you respond before moving to a full scoop.
- Mix one scoop. A full 7.1 g scoop in 250–350 ml of cold water, ideally earlier in the day.
- Mind the clock. Each scoop has 275 mg caffeine — avoid taking it within about six hours of bed, and keep your total daily caffeine from all sources in check.
- Don't double up on stimulants. Don't combine it with other pre-workouts, energy drinks or caffeine tablets. Follow the directions on the pack and do not exceed them.

Ratings
Only a handful of ratings so far.

Stack with
Because OxyShred Hardcore is already high in caffeine, don't pair it with another stimulant pre-workout. If you want to add to your routine without more caffeine, a stimulant-free pump pre-workout and a quality protein for recovery are the cleaner partners — and keep an eye on caffeine from coffee and energy drinks across the day.
FAQ
How much caffeine is in OxyShred Hardcore?
275 mg per 7.1 g scoop, from caffeine anhydrous plus guarana seed extract — roughly the caffeine of three cups of coffee, and about double standard OxyShred (150 mg). Because it's a high dose, start with half a scoop to assess tolerance and keep your total daily caffeine from all sources in check.
Is OxyShred Hardcore a weight-loss product?
No. It's a caffeinated dietary supplement and flavoured drink mix — not a weight-loss product and not a medicine. We make no weight-loss or health claims for it. It won't change your body composition on its own; any results come from your overall diet, training and consistency.
How is Hardcore different from regular OxyShred?
The main difference is the stimulant load: Hardcore has 275 mg caffeine per scoop versus 150 mg in standard OxyShred Ultra Concentration, so it's aimed at experienced caffeine users. The serve is 7.1 g across 40 serves, and the wider ingredient list is broadly similar — check the panel for the exact formula.
Can I take it with coffee or another pre-workout?
It's best not to. Each scoop already has 275 mg caffeine, so stacking it with another pre-workout, an energy drink or several coffees can push your caffeine intake very high. If you use a separate pre-workout, don't take both on the same day, and watch caffeine from all sources.
When should I take it, and how much?
Mix one 7.1 g scoop in 250–350 ml of cold water, ideally earlier in the day. Start with half a scoop the first few times to assess tolerance. Avoid taking it within about six hours of bed, since the caffeine can affect sleep. Follow the directions on the pack and don't exceed them.
Does it contain sugar or allergens?
Each serve has just 0.1 g sugar and 63 kJ, sweetened with sucralose; flavour and colour vary by variant. We don't make an allergen-free claim here — always read the allergen statement on the pack and the Supplement Facts tab before use, especially if you have allergies.
Which flavours are available?
Flavours rotate in and out — recent options include Grape Bubblegum, Cola and Sour Creepy Crawlies. Use the flavour selector at the top of the page for what's currently in stock. The active formula is the same across flavours; only the flavour system and colour change, so nutrition can vary slightly per variant.
