HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lyc-O-Mato Lycopene 10 mg 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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Aug 20, 2026

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.
  • “Lyc-O-Mato Tomato extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (66.67 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product has one active ingredient: lycopene 10 mg per softgel. Lycopene is a carotenoid — a natural red pigment — that comes from tomato extract in this formulation.

The softgel capsule also contains inactive ingredients (rice bran oil, gelatin, glycerin, purified water, medium chain triglyceride oil, yellow beeswax, and silica) that help deliver the lycopene.

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 Lycopene's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Lycopene for:

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“Antioxidant and general wellness support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Prostate cancer — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for lycopene is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for prostate cancer — the strongest evidence in the data we hold — but rated possibly ineffective for bladder cancer and diabetes.

The data on lycopene for high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), ALS, and exercise-induced asthma show insufficient evidence to say whether it works. If you're considering this for one of those conditions, talk with your doctor about what the research actually supports for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tomato Lycopene

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.

Lycopene from food is considered safe, and supplement doses are generally well tolerated. The most common side effects from supplements are gastrointestinal — diarrhea, flatulence, bloating, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, and loss of appetite.

A case of chest pain was reported in one pregnant person taking a different lycopene product, but whether lycopene caused it isn't clear. For pregnancy, the safety data is limited but doesn't advise against supplements at the doses studied — talk with your doctor before starting.

For breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety data on supplements, so check with your doctor or pharmacist first. Food amounts of lycopene are fine either way.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Tomato Lycopene

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Lycopene.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 122 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.

Double-check this product with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (such as warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel, or similar medications). Lycopene may increase bleeding risk when combined with these drugs.

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.

Lyc-O-Mato Lycopene may be worth considering if you're interested in prostate health support, though the evidence is modest. If you take any blood thinner or antiplatelet medication, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — the interaction is documented and real.

For pregnancy or breastfeeding, talk it over with your healthcare provider first to make sure it's right for you.

Lyc-O-Mato Lycopene 10 mg by Swanson: Common Questions

Does Lyc-O-Mato Lycopene 10 mg by Swanson interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Lyc-O-Mato Lycopene 10 mg has a known interaction with 122 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Lyc-O-Mato Lycopene 10 mg 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.
What is lycopene and why is it in this product?
Lycopene is a red pigment from tomatoes that acts as an antioxidant in your body. This product contains it at 10 mg per capsule, sourced from tomato extract. Some research suggests it may support prostate health, though the evidence is still developing.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data on lycopene supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited. Food amounts of lycopene are fine, but there isn't enough data on supplements to say they're clearly safe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — they can help you decide what's right for you.
What side effects should I watch for?
Gastrointestinal issues are the most common: diarrhea, gas, bloating, nausea, vomiting, or indigestion. These are usually mild. Stop and talk to your doctor or pharmacist if they're bothersome or don't ease.
Does lycopene work for diabetes or high cholesterol?
The evidence doesn't support using it for those conditions. Research shows it's possibly ineffective for diabetes and there's insufficient evidence for high cholesterol. If those are your goals, ask your doctor what's actually proven to help.
Is this the same as eating tomatoes?
Lycopene comes from tomatoes, but this is a concentrated supplement at 10 mg per dose — much more than you'd get in a typical serving of tomato sauce or juice. Food amounts are safe and well studied; supplement amounts like this one are generally tolerated but less well studied overall.
What are the inactive ingredients?
The capsule also contains rice bran oil, gelatin, glycerin, purified water, medium chain triglyceride oil, yellow beeswax, and silica. These help make and deliver the softgel. If you have allergies to any of these, check the label or ask your pharmacist.
