HelloPharmacist Scorecard of NovaPump Unicorn Candy by InnovaPharm

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 5 of its 5 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

NovaPump Unicorn Candy is a 5-ingredient powder supplement. The active ingredients are Citrulline Malate (which we cannot verify), Agmatine Sulfate, GlycerPump (glycerol), Super Spinach, and PegaPump (rue).

The remaining ingredients are inactive — flavoring, silica (an anti-caking agent), citric acid, sucralose, and acesulfame potassium (sweeteners). It's a mix of compounds claimed to support athletic performance and circulation, though the evidence for most is limited or not established.

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: nitric oxide amplifier for exercise performance.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Muscle strength, Endurance, Vasodilation, Blood flow.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Glycerol is rated "Possibly Effective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Spinach is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Muscle strength.
  • Also on file: Agmatine is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Athletic performance, Muscle strength.

The evidence for most ingredients in this product is not established. Glycerol (GlycerPump) is likely effective for constipation and possibly effective for athletic performance.

Spinach (Super Spinach) shows insufficient reliable evidence for the conditions listed in our data — cognitive function, muscle strength, liver or metabolic health, and others. Agmatine Sulfate and rue show insufficient evidence across multiple uses including athletic performance, mental health, and other claims.

Citrulline Malate's effectiveness ratings are not on file. In short, while glycerol has some evidence backing, the product as a whole lacks the clinical proof needed to make clear claims about its intended benefits.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Agmatine Glycerol Spinach Rue

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

Short-term use of agmatine appears generally well tolerated, though long-term human safety is not well studied. A small number of trial participants reported diarrhea, nausea, and indigestion, usually appearing within 2–3 days and resolving when the ingredient was stopped.

Glycerol is generally well tolerated in normal amounts but can cause bloating, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache, and increased thirst, especially at larger doses. Spinach as a food is safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Rue, however, should be avoided during pregnancy — it has traditionally been used to trigger abortion and may harm an unborn child — and should be avoided while breastfeeding because its safety is not established. Rue can also cause drowsiness, gastrointestinal irritation, dizziness, and depression with medicinal use.

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?
  • 3 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Spinach, Rue, Agmatine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 510 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.

Check your medications if you take blood pressure drugs (antihypertensives), diabetes drugs, warfarin or other blood thinners, or medications that make your skin sensitive to sunlight (photosensitizing drugs). All of these have Moderate-severity documented interactions with ingredients in this product.

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.

This supplement is not for you if you take blood pressure medications, diabetes medications, blood thinners like warfarin, or any photosensitizing drugs. If you take other medications, check them against the interaction tool on this page before starting.

The evidence that it works for athletic performance or pump is not established in the data we hold. Talk to your pharmacist before you buy — especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any chronic conditions.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in NovaPump Unicorn Candy with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

PegaPump1 drug type · 335 drugs

Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, rue might increase the risk for phototoxicity when used with photosensitizing drugs.
Rue contains photosensitizing furanocoumarins and psoralens and has been associated with multiple reports of phototoxic reactions. There is also one case report of an increased phototoxic response to psoralen and ultraviolet A (PUVA) therapy associated with ingestion of rue.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Agmatine Sulfate2 drug types · 258 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, agmatine might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal and in vitro research suggest that agmatine has mild hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, agmatine might increase the risk of hypotension when taken with antihypertensive drugs.
Animal research suggests that agmatine can modestly decrease heart rate and blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Super Spinach2 drug types · 88 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

There are claims that spinach leaves have hypoglycemic effects. Evidence from clinical research suggests that consumption of a spinach-rich meal reduces post-meal blood glucose levels. Theoretically, spinach might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary. Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Spinach contains vitamin K, which can interfere with the activity of warfarin.
In human research, although eating spinach with one meal does not result in coagulation test results outside the therapeutic range, daily consumption for one week necessitates dose adjustment of warfarin. Individuals using anticoagulants should consume a consistent daily amount of spinach to maintain the effect of anticoagulant therapy.

NovaPump Unicorn Candy by InnovaPharm: Common Questions

Does NovaPump Unicorn Candy by InnovaPharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, NovaPump Unicorn Candy has a known interaction with 510 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
NovaPump Unicorn Candy contains 5 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.
Is this safe if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The rue in this product (PegaPump) should be avoided during pregnancy — it may harm your unborn child — and while breastfeeding. There isn't enough safety data on agmatine for either stage either. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using this product.
What are the side effects I might notice?
The most common are gastrointestinal: diarrhea, nausea, indigestion, bloating, and vomiting. You might also feel dizzy, drowsy, or get a headache. If you notice these within the first few days, stop taking it and see if they go away. If they don't, contact your pharmacist.
Does this actually help with athletic performance?
The evidence isn't established in our data for most of the ingredients. Glycerol may help, but agmatine, rue, and spinach all show insufficient evidence for athletic performance. We can't say this will work for that purpose.
Why is rue in a supplement?
Rue has been used traditionally for various purposes, but the evidence for it isn't reliable, and it carries real safety risks — it can cause drowsiness, GI upset, dizziness, and depression, and it's not safe in pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Can I take this long-term?
We don't have good long-term safety data for agmatine, which is one of the main ingredients. Short-term use appears okay, but you should talk to your pharmacist before taking it regularly.
What is citrulline malate supposed to do?
We don't hold any data on citrulline malate, so I can't tell you what the evidence says about its effectiveness or safety. Your pharmacist can help you look that up separately.
