HelloPharmacist Scorecard of L-Citrulline 850 mg Pharmaceutical Grade by Swanson
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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: L-citrulline, an amino acid your body can convert to another amino acid called L-arginine. That conversion is what produces most of its effects in the body.
The capsule itself is made up of hypromellose, rice extract, and rice concentrate, which are inactive fillers and binding materials.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
L-citrulline is possibly effective for athletic performance — evidence suggests it may support exercise capacity and endurance. For sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss), the evidence leans toward possibly ineffective.
For heart failure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and Reye syndrome, there isn't enough reliable evidence in our data to say whether it works or doesn't.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
L-citrulline is generally well tolerated in healthy adults, though long-term safety studies are limited. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal — you might notice stomach discomfort, heartburn, or general digestive unease.
A small number of people in one trial reported cough. Because there isn't enough safety data during pregnancy or breastfeeding, the evidence advises against supplemental use in both situations — talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this is right for you if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check your blood pressure medications and any erectile dysfunction drugs (like sildenafil or tadalafil) with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product — both can combine with L-citrulline to lower blood pressure more than intended (Moderate severity in both cases). No other medication interactions are documented for the ingredient we checked.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
If you're an athlete looking to support endurance, L-citrulline may be worth trying — the evidence is encouraging enough. If you take blood pressure medication or drugs for erectile dysfunction, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist first; the combination could cause your blood pressure to drop too far.
Stick with your own healthcare provider before starting this one.

L-Citrulline 850 mg Pharmaceutical Grade by Swanson Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Swanson's L-Citrulline 850 mg interacts with blood pressure medications and erectile dysfunction drugs through its single active ingredient.
The most serious concern is with blood pressure drugs (antihypertensives) — L-citrulline converts to L-arginine in your body, which widens blood vessels and can lower blood pressure, so taking it alongside blood pressure medication might cause your pressure to drop too far (Moderate severity). Altogether, these interactions span 178 individual medications.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
You'll also want to flag erectile dysfunction drugs like sildenafil, tadalafil, and similar medications (phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors or PDE-5 inhibitors). These also widen blood vessels, and combining them with L-citrulline could add up to more vasodilation and a sharper blood pressure drop than either one alone (Moderate severity).
If you take any blood pressure or erectile dysfunction medication, run your exact drugs through the checker below before you start. Your doctor or pharmacist can let you know whether L-citrulline is safe for you or if the dose needs watching.

For each ingredient in L-Citrulline 850 mg Pharmaceutical Grade with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
L-Citrulline
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, concomitant use of L-citrulline with antihypertensive drugs might have additive effects and increase the chance of hypotension.
L-citrulline is converted to L-arginine, which can increase nitric oxide and cause vasodilation. However, a meta-analysis of 5 small clinical studies suggests that taking L-citrulline 3-6 grams daily for 1-8 weeks does not lower blood pressure when compared with control.
Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors
Theoretically, concurrent use of phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors and L-citrulline might result in additive vasodilation.
L-citrulline is converted to L-arginine, which can increase nitric oxide and cause vasodilation. Theoretically, taking L-arginine with PDE-5 inhibitors might have additive vasodilatory and hypotensive effects. However, in studies evaluating the combined use of L-arginine and sildenafil for erectile dysfunction, hypotension was not reported.
