HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Prosolution+ by Leading Edge Health

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
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 7 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • “Extracts” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Prosolution+ contains 7 ingredients, including 4 plant extracts we can assess for interactions. The active ingredients are Tribulus terrestris Fruit Extract, Mucuna pruriens Seed Extract (a source of levodopa, the same compound in Parkinson's medications), Withania somnifera Root Extract (ashwagandha), Asparagus adscendens Root Extract, and three others—Curculigo orchioides root extract, Asphaltum Exudate Extract, and Asteracantha longifolia Whole Plant Extract—for which we hold no interaction data.

The tablet also contains inactive ingredients used as fillers and binders, including dicalcium phosphate, cellulose, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide.

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: Male potency and sexual function support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Erectile dysfunction (ED), Male infertility, Premature ejaculation, Sexual desire, Sexual dysfunction, Testosterone support — and 2 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Tribulus is rated "Possibly Effective" for Sexual dysfunction (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Tribulus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Erectile dysfunction (ED), Premature ejaculation, Male infertility.
  • Also on file: Ashwagandha is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Sexual dysfunction, Infertility.

Tribulus terrestris is rated possibly effective for sexual dysfunction based on clinical evidence. Ashwagandha is rated possibly effective for insomnia, anxiety, stress, and generalized anxiety disorder.

For the other ingredients in this product—Mucuna pruriens, Asparagus adscendens, and those without linked data—the evidence available to us does not establish effectiveness for any condition. The product itself is marketed for sexual performance, but our data on these specific extracts at their doses in this formulation is not conclusive.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tribulus Cowhage Ashwagandha Asparagus

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.

Tribulus is often well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, though long-term safety data are limited; however, rare cases of liver and kidney injury, seizures, and painful erection have been reported. Mucuna pruriens is generally well tolerated orally, with diarrhea, flatulence, and nausea being most common, though insomnia occurred in about 3% of patients in one clinical trial.

Ashwagandha is usually well tolerated, but gastrointestinal upset, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting can occur; rare serious cases of liver failure and intracranial hemorrhage have been reported. Asparagus root can trigger allergic reactions in people sensitive to onions, garlic, leeks, or chives, and one combination product caused constipation and abdominal pain in up to 50% of users.

Why this rating?
  • 4 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Tribulus, Asparagus, Ashwagandha, Cowhage.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium; Parkinson's medications.

Withania somnifera Root Extract10 drug types · 1,372 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
There is preliminary clinical evidence suggesting that ashwagandha might lower blood glucose levels. Theoretically, ashwagandha might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research suggests that ashwagandha might lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Theoretically, ashwagandha might have additive effects when used with antihypertensive drugs and increase the risk of hypotension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Benzodiazepines

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha might increase the sedative effects of benzodiazepines.
There is preliminary evidence that ashwagandha might have an additive effect with diazepam (Valium) and clonazepam (Klonopin). This may also occur with other benzodiazepines.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha might increase the sedative effects of CNS depressants.
Ashwagandha seems to have sedative effects. Theoretically, this may potentiate the effects of barbiturates, other sedatives, and anxiolytics.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha with hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver damage.
Ashwagandha has been linked to cases of acute hepatitis, liver failure, hepatic encephalopathy, autoimmune hepatitis, the need for liver transplantation, and death due to liver failure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, taking ashwagandha might decrease the effects of immunosuppressants.
Ashwagandha has demonstrated immunostimulant effects in humans. Animal research has shown that ashwagandha can attenuate the immunosuppression caused by cyclophosphamide.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Ashwagandha might increase the effects and adverse effects of thyroid hormone.
Concomitant use of ashwagandha with thyroid hormones may cause additive therapeutic and adverse effects. Preliminary clinical research and animal studies suggest that ashwagandha boosts thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion. In one clinical study, ashwagandha increased triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) levels by 41.5% and 19.6%, respectively, and reduced serum TSH levels by 17.4% from baseline in adults with subclinical hypothyroidism.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, ashwagandha might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ashwagandha extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, ashwagandha might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ashwagandha extract induces CYP3A4 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Serotonergic Drugs

Some animal studies have reported that ashwagandha can enhance serotonergic transmission by altering certain serotonin (5-HT) receptors. However, there is no evidence to suggest that ashwagandha increases the risk of serotonin-related effects, and there have been no published case reports of serotonin syndrome when combined with other serotonergic drugs. Nevertheless, due to the lack of extensive studies on the matter and the fact that ashwagandha appears to affect serotonergic pathways, it would be prudent to exercise caution when combining it with drugs that affect serotonin.

Tribulus terrestris Fruit Extract3 drug types · 259 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking tribulus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that Tribulus can lower blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes who are taking antidiabetes medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking tribulus with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research shows that tribulus can lower blood pressure by inhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Tribulus has also demonstrated hypotensive effects in pre-hypertensive adults.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, tribulus might increase the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
Tribulus is thought to have diuretic properties. Due to these potential diuretic effects, tribulus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Mucuna pruriens Seed Extract8 drug types · 193 drugs

Levodopa

Concomitant use can increase the risk of levodopa-related adverse effects.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Some cowhage products have been standardized to contain 75-400 mg of levodopa per dose.

Likelihood Likely Evidence D
Methyldopa (Aldomet)

Theoretically, concomitant use of cowhage and methyldopa might increase the risk of hypotension.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Use of levodopa with methyldopa might cause additive hypotension. In addition, methyldopa may inhibit peripheral decarboxylation of levodopa and increase levodopa levels in the central nervous system; avoid using.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (Maois)

Theoretically, concomitant use of cowhage and non-selective MAOIs might increase the risk of hypertensive crisis.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Use of levodopa with non-selective MAOIs might cause hypertensive crisis. However, this interaction has not been reported with MAO-B selective inhibitors such as selegiline.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Anesthesia

Theoretically, concomitant use of cowhage and anesthesia might increase the risk of arrhythmias.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Use of levodopa with cyclopropane or halogenated hydrocarbon anesthesia has led to arrhythmias. Other anesthetics have not been implicated. Use other anesthetics in patients taking cowhage or tell patients to stop taking cowhage at least 2 weeks before surgery.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of cowhage and antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research shows that cowhage might have hypoglycemic effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antipsychotic Drugs

Theoretically, use of cowhage might decrease the clinical effects of antipsychotic drugs.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Use of levodopa might counteract the antidopaminergic effects of antipsychotic medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Guanethidine (Ismelin)

Theoretically, concomitant use of cowhage and guanethidine might increase the risk of hypotension.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Use of levodopa with guanethidine might cause additive hypotension; avoid using.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Tricyclic Antidepressants (Tcas)

Theoretically, use of TCAs might reduce the levels and clinical effects of cowhage.
Cowhage contains levodopa. Use of TCAs might reduce the absorption of levodopa. Some case reports describe patients that developed hypertension and dyskinesia when taking both levodopa and TCAs.

Prosolution+ by Leading Edge Health: Common Questions

Does Prosolution+ by Leading Edge Health interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Prosolution+ has a known interaction with 1,431 medications, including 17 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Prosolution+ contains 7 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 Prosolution+ contain anything that could affect how my blood pressure medication works?
Yes. Tribulus terrestris and ashwagandha can both lower blood pressure, so taking either with your blood pressure medication might increase the risk of blood pressure dropping too low. Mucuna pruriens, if you're on methyldopa, can cause dangerous blood pressure drops. Check your specific medications with the tool on this page and talk with your pharmacist before starting.
What's in Prosolution+ that might make me dizzy or drowsy?
Ashwagandha has sedative effects and may cause drowsiness on its own. If you also take sedatives, anti-anxiety drugs, or benzodiazepines, this could be stronger. Mucuna pruriens can cause headaches and, in some people, insomnia. If you feel dizzy or drowsy, don't drive or operate machinery.
Is Prosolution+ safe if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Tribulus is possibly unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding. Ashwagandha is likely unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided while breastfeeding. Mucuna pruriens is best avoided in pregnancy due to its dopamine effects, and L-dopa can reduce milk supply, so avoid it while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor about safer options.
Can Prosolution+ affect my diabetes or blood sugar medication?
Yes. Both Tribulus terrestris and Mucuna pruriens may lower blood sugar, and ashwagandha can too. If you take diabetes medication, adding this product could increase your risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Your doctor may need to adjust your diabetes dose if you use Prosolution+.
What are the most common side effects I might notice?
With Mucuna pruriens, diarrhea, flatulence, and nausea are most common. Ashwagandha may cause gastrointestinal upset, nausea, or drowsiness. Asparagus root extract in one study caused constipation and abdominal pain in a significant number of people. If you're allergic to onions, garlic, or leeks, you may react to the asparagus root.
Why does this product interact with so many medications?
Mucuna pruriens contains levodopa, which is a drug-like compound that interacts with blood pressure medications, psychiatric drugs, and anesthetics. Ashwagandha and Tribulus both affect blood pressure and blood sugar. Asparagus root has diuretic effects. Together, these create a broad range of potential interactions, which is why checking your specific medications is essential.
