HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lycopene Softgels 2 mg by BulkSupplements.com

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 Jul 11, 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.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 1 active ingredient: lycopene, a red pigment found in tomatoes and other fruits. Your body doesn't make lycopene, so you get it from food or supplements.

Each softgel delivers 2 mg. The inactive ingredients are soybean oil, gelatin, glycerin, and purified water.

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: Lycopene antioxidant support and general wellness.
  • We looked for evidence on: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Atherosclerosis, Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Cataracts, Hyperlipidemia — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lycopene is rated "Possibly Effective" for Prostate cancer (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lycopene is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Atherosclerosis, Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), Cardiovascular disease (CVD), and more.

The evidence for lycopene is mixed. It's possibly effective for prostate cancer, meaning some research supports it but more is needed.

For bladder cancer, diabetes, and high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), the evidence isn't strong enough to rate it or points toward it not working. For Lou Gehrig's disease (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) and exercise-triggered asthma, we don't have enough reliable data to say either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient 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. That said, digestive side effects can happen—diarrhea, gas, bloating, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, or loss of appetite.

One case of chest pain was reported in a pregnant woman taking a lycopene product daily, though whether lycopene caused it is unclear. Supplements of lycopene aren't well studied in pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Food amounts are fine, but you should avoid the supplement form unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient 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.

Blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs—including warfarin, aspirin, and clopidogrel—can have their effects boosted by lycopene, raising bleeding risk (Moderate severity). Check your exact medication with the search tool before starting.

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.

Lycopene may help with prostate cancer, though the evidence isn't airtight. It's generally well tolerated from food and supplements, but watch for digestive upset.

Most important: if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, check with your pharmacist before adding this supplement. Don't use it in pregnancy or while breastfeeding without talking to your doctor.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Lycopene Softgels 2 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.
Can I take this if I'm on aspirin or warfarin?
Not without checking first. Lab research shows lycopene can thin your blood slightly, so pairing it with blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like aspirin or warfarin might increase bleeding risk. Talk to your pharmacist before you start—they can look up your specific dose and drug.
What side effects should I watch for?
Most people tolerate lycopene supplements well. Digestive issues are the main ones: diarrhea, gas, bloating, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, or loss of appetite. If your stomach stays upset, scale back or stop and ask your pharmacist.

There isn't enough safety data on supplements during pregnancy. Food amounts of lycopene are fine, but the supplement form hasn't been well studied. Talk to your doctor before taking it if you're pregnant.
What is lycopene for?
It's a red pigment from tomatoes and other fruits. Research suggests it may help with prostate cancer, but the evidence is still developing. For other uses like bladder cancer, diabetes, or high cholesterol, the evidence is weaker or inconclusive.
How much lycopene is in each capsule?
Each softgel contains 2 mg of lycopene.
Is this safe while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety data on lycopene supplements during breastfeeding. Small amounts from food are fine, but talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using the supplement form.
