HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 100% Pure Tribulus 500 Milligrams by NutraBio

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: tribulus terrestris, a plant extract traditionally used for sexual function and athletic performance. The capsule itself is made from vegetable material.

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Tribulus's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Tribulus for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Sexual dysfunction — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for tribulus is mixed. For sexual dysfunction, the data suggests it's possibly effective — there's some clinical support, though the strength of evidence isn't rock-solid.

For athletic performance, the evidence points the other way: possibly ineffective. For benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works or not.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tribulus

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.

Tribulus is generally well tolerated in the short term for healthy adults, but quality data and long-term safety information are limited. Side effects are usually mild — some people report stomach pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation, though in one study these occurred at similar rates in both tribulus and placebo groups.

Rare serious effects including liver and kidney injury and seizures have been reported. During pregnancy, the safety data advises against it because tribulus may affect hormones.

While breastfeeding, there isn't enough reliable safety information, so it should be avoided.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Tribulus might interest someone looking into sexual function support, though the evidence is modest. If you take blood pressure medication, diabetes medication, or lithium, you need to check with your pharmacist before starting — the interactions could be significant.

Talk to us before you use it, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or on any regular medications.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking tribulus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that Tribulus can lower blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes who are taking antidiabetes medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking tribulus with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research shows that tribulus can lower blood pressure by inhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Tribulus has also demonstrated hypotensive effects in pre-hypertensive adults.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, tribulus might increase the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
Tribulus is thought to have diuretic properties. Due to these potential diuretic effects, tribulus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

100% Pure Tribulus 500 Milligrams by NutraBio: Common Questions

Yes. Based on its ingredients, 100% Pure Tribulus 500 Milligrams has a known interaction with 259 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
100% Pure Tribulus 500 Milligrams 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.
Does tribulus actually work for sexual function?
The evidence says it's possibly effective — there's some clinical support, but it's not ironclad. Results vary person to person, and more research would help us know for sure.
Can I take this while I'm pregnant?
No. Tribulus may affect hormones and safety isn't established during pregnancy, so it should be avoided.
Is it safe if I'm breastfeeding?
No. There isn't enough reliable safety information about tribulus during breastfeeding, so it's best to avoid it.
What side effects might I notice?
Most people tolerate it fine, but some report stomach upset — pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation. Serious effects are rare but have been reported, including liver and kidney problems and seizures.
Is there anything else in this besides tribulus?
Just the vegetable capsule it comes in — the one active ingredient is tribulus terrestris at 500 milligrams.
