The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tribulus and Omalizumab in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Tribulus and Omalizumab

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Omalizumab and Tribulus in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Tribulus safety at a glance

Tribulus overall Use caution Often well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, but quality and long-term safety data are limited.
Pregnancy Possibly Unsafe When used orally. Animal research suggests that tribulus might adversely affect fetal development; avoid using. Read the full pregnancy detail
Breastfeeding Avoid Avoid while breastfeeding due to a lack of reliable safety information.

Pregnancy & breastfeeding ratings are from Natural Medicines (Therapeutic Research Center) — the full detail is in the Special populations card below. Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Omalizumab

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Omalizumab is filed under a single classification — immunosuppressants. Tribulus has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being antidiabetes drugs (moderate), antihypertensive drugs (moderate) and lithium (moderate) — and none of Omalizumab’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

Keep it in perspective

Tribulus Does Interact With Other Medications

What to actually watch for

What Tribulus Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Omalizumab. It is the side-effect record for Tribulus on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Tribulus, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Seizures / Kidney problems Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, tribulus seems to be well tolerated.

    Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):

    Orally: Cases of liver and kidney injury, seizures, and chronic painful erection with impaired sexual function have been reported. Pneumothorax and bronchial polyp after consuming the spine-covered tribulus fruit have been reported.”

    Tribulus · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in epilepsy.

    “In one case report, a patient drinking tribulus water 2 liters daily for two days presented with lower limb weakness, seizures, hepatitis, and acute kidney injury. The patient's condition improved after hemodialysis and discontinuation of tribulus water.”

    “Orally, tribulus has been reported to cause general excitation and insomnia. These symptoms were reversed upon discontinuation of the drug or decreasing the dose. In one case report, a patient drinking tribulus water 2 liters daily for two days presented with lower limb weakness, seizures, hepatitis, and acute kidney injury. The patient's condition improved after hemodialysis and discontinuation of tribulus water.”

  • Constipation / Stomach pain / Diarrhea / Vomiting / Nausea Additional detail

    “Orally, tribulus can cause abdominal pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. However, in one study, the rates of these gastrointestinal complaints were similar for patients taking tribulus and those receiving placebo.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Tribulus — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Omalizumab’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Omalizumab column appears here.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Omalizumab

This page covers Tribulus only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Omalizumab page lists 53 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Active Hexose Correlated Compound (ahcc) (moderate), Alfalfa (moderate), American Ginseng (moderate), Andrographis (moderate) and Ashwagandha (moderate).

By severity: 52 moderate · 1 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Omalizumab page

“None of the 53 supplements on file for omalizumab (Xolair) carries a major rating, so this is a list to read with steady attention rather than alarm. Xolair treats allergic asthma and chronic hives by calming part of the immune system, and every entry here pulls the other way: these are immune-stimulating products, echinacea and astrag…”

About Tribulus

What is Tribulus?

Tribulus
  • Low libido and sexual function
  • Athletic performance and muscle building
  • Testosterone support
  • Male and female fertility
  • General 'vitality' or wellness

Tribulus is a plant supplement most often marketed to boost libido, testosterone, and athletic performance, but the human evidence behind these claims is weak and inconsistent. It is generally well tolerated by healthy adults in the short term, but it should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding and discussed with your pharmacist or doctor before use.

Tribulus terrestris · Zygophyllaceae · Fruit, leaf, and root · Capsules, tablets, powders, tinctures, and standardized extracts

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Tribulus is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Tribulus record says about it on its own.

Tribulus: dosing

There is no well-established standard dose for Tribulus. Studies have used a range of doses and different extracts, often standardized to a percentage of saponins, which makes it hard to compare products or recommend one amount.The best approach is to follow the directions on the specific product label and not exceed them.

About Omalizumab Injection

What Is Omalizumab Injection Used For?

Brand name: Xolair

Xolair is used for several allergy-driven conditions. It treats moderate to severe persistent asthma in adults and children 6 and older whose symptoms aren't controlled by inhaled corticosteroids alone and who test positive for a perennial allergen (like dust mites or pet dander). It also treats chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (ongoing sinus inflammation with polyp growth) in adults 18 and older when nasal corticosteroids haven't worked well enough.

Xolair is approved to help reduce allergic reactions — including anaphylaxis (severe, life-threatening allergic reactions) — from accidental food exposures in adults and children as young as 1 year old with IgE-mediated food allergy. It is always used alongside food allergen avoidance, not as a substitute. Finally, Xolair treats chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU — ongoing hives with no known cause) in adults and adolescents 12 and older who still have symptoms despite taking antihistamines. It is not for emergency treatment of allergic reactions and not for other forms of hives.

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Omalizumab is filed under 1 classification, and Tribulus has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — none of Omalizumab's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
