HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Fireworks for Men by Herbally Grounded

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Oct 1, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,270 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Fireworks for Men contains six active ingredients: damiana, rehmannia, tribulus terrestris, horny goat weed, maca, and deer antler. Most are herbal extracts traditionally used to support male sexual function and sexual performance.

The product also contains cellulose as an inactive ingredient (a binder in the 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: increased energy, stamina, libido, sexual function.
  • We looked for evidence on: Erectile dysfunction (ED), Sexual desire, Sexual dysfunction, Premature ejaculation, Male infertility, Age-related testosterone deficiency — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Tribulus is rated "Possibly Effective" for Sexual dysfunction (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Tribulus is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Athletic performance.
  • Also on file: Tribulus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Erectile dysfunction (ED), Premature ejaculation, Male infertility.

The evidence we hold rates most of these ingredients as insufficient to prove they work for any condition. Tribulus is rated Possibly Effective for sexual dysfunction — clinical research supports this use.

Rehmannia is rated Possibly Effective for chronic kidney disease. The other ingredients, including damiana, horny goat weed, maca, and deer antler, don't have sufficient reliable evidence in our data to confirm they work for the purposes often claimed, including sexual dysfunction and sexual performance.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Damiana Rehmannia Tribulus Horny Goat Weed Maca Deer Velvet

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 4 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 6 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Damiana and rehmannia are generally well tolerated in food or traditional-use amounts, but human safety data are limited. Tribulus is often well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, though serious but rare adverse effects — including liver and kidney injury and seizures — have been reported, especially with very high intakes.

Horny goat weed seems well tolerated short-term; common side effects in some users include dizziness, dry mouth, nosebleed, thirst, and vomiting, and rare serious effects like respiratory arrest have been reported. Maca is generally well tolerated as a food; fresh, uncooked maca may cause stomach pain.

Deer antler appears well tolerated short-term, but long-term safety is not well studied. All five ingredients without adequate pregnancy data — damiana, rehmannia, tribulus, horny goat weed, and deer antler — carry safety concerns in pregnancy; the data aren't there to know either way for maca.

Similarly, none of these have sufficient safety data for 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?
  • 5 of the 6 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Tribulus, Horny Goat Weed, Damiana, Deer Velvet, Rehmannia.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,048 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.

Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs), diabetes medications, blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, lithium, estrogens or contraceptives, or any medication that relies on your liver's CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4 enzymes to work. All of these carry Moderate or Minor interaction concerns with one or more ingredients in this formula.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product might appeal to people seeking herbal support for male sexual function, since tribulus has some evidence behind it for that purpose. However, if you take blood pressure medications, diabetes medications, blood thinners, lithium, hormonal birth control, estrogen, or certain drugs your liver metabolizes, you'll need to check your specific medications against the interactions listed here before starting.

Talk it over with your own doctor or pharmacist — don't start this without clearing it first if you're on prescription medications.

Fireworks for Men by Herbally Grounded: Common Questions

Does Fireworks for Men by Herbally Grounded interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Fireworks for Men has a known interaction with 1,047 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Fireworks for Men contains 6 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 this product actually help with sexual dysfunction?
Tribulus, one of the six ingredients, is rated Possibly Effective for sexual dysfunction based on clinical research. The other ingredients — damiana, rehmannia, horny goat weed, maca, and deer antler — don't have enough reliable evidence in our data for us to say whether they work or not.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Damiana, rehmannia, tribulus, horny goat weed, and deer antler all lack sufficient safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding — the facts advise against use in both. Maca also doesn't have enough data to know either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
What are the common side effects?
Horny goat weed can cause dizziness, dry mouth, nosebleed, thirst, and vomiting in some users. Maca may cause stomach pain if it's fresh and uncooked. The other ingredients are generally well tolerated, though human safety data are limited for most of them.
What is deer antler, and does it raise testosterone?
Deer antler (deer velvet) is an extract from young deer antler. Laboratory tests show it contains tiny amounts of testosterone and estradiol, but clinical research found it did not raise testosterone levels in people — though estradiol levels weren't measured in those studies.
Can I take this with birth control pills?
Deer antler poses a Minor theoretical interaction with contraceptive drugs, and horny goat weed has estrogenic activity that might affect estrogen-based birth control. Check with your pharmacist or doctor before starting, because hormonal interactions can reduce contraceptive effectiveness.
Why does this product interact with so many medications?
Horny goat weed inhibits several liver enzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2B6, and CYP3A4) that your body uses to break down many common drugs — everything from blood pressure and heart medications to pain relievers and allergy drugs. When an ingredient affects how your liver works, it can touch hundreds of medications.
