HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Trib-650 by Dymatize Nutrition

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Trib-650 contains one active ingredient: tribulus terrestris, a plant traditionally used to support sexual function and athletic performance. The capsule itself is made from gelatin and vegetable cellulose, with silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, and magnesium stearate as inactive processing aids.

Does it work?

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
Leans against

The strongest graded evidence we hold for the stated purpose leans against a benefit.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Athletic performance and muscle building.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle damage, Strength and endurance, Muscle recovery, Sports performance.
  • The closest evidence on file: Tribulus is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Tribulus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Exercise-induced muscle damage.

The evidence for tribulus in sexual dysfunction is possibly effective — meaning some clinical evidence supports it, but more research is needed to be certain. For athletic performance, the evidence is actually possibly ineffective; the data we hold doesn't support that use.

For benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tribulus

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.

Tribulus is often well tolerated over the short term in healthy adults, but long-term safety data are limited and the quality of research varies. Serious side effects are rare but have been reported, including liver or kidney injury and seizures.

More commonly, some people report stomach upset — nausea, diarrhea, cramping, or constipation — though in one study these complaints were about as common in the placebo group. Do not use this product if you're pregnant; tribulus may affect hormones and safety hasn't been established.

The same goes for breastfeeding — there isn't enough reliable safety information. If you're in either situation, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with graded evidence leaning against its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Trib-650 may help with sexual function, though the evidence is moderate. If you take blood pressure meds, diabetes medications, or lithium, you'll need to check with your pharmacist or doctor first — tribulus can interact with all three.

Avoid it in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

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.

Trib-650 by Dymatize Nutrition: Common Questions

Does Trib-650 by Dymatize Nutrition interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Trib-650 has a known interaction with 259 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Trib-650 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 pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — tribulus may affect your hormones and safety hasn't been proven in pregnancy, so it's best to avoid it. The same applies to breastfeeding, where there isn't enough reliable safety data. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions.
What does tribulus actually do?
Tribulus is used mainly to support sexual function; some clinical evidence suggests it may help. It's also promoted for athletic performance, but the research we have doesn't support that use. It's not proven to help with prostate problems, though some people use it for that.
Does this have any side effects?
Most people tolerate it fine, but stomach upset — nausea, diarrhea, cramping — can happen. Serious side effects like liver or kidney problems and seizures have been reported, though they're rare. Long-term safety data are still limited.
Why does this interact with blood pressure and diabetes medications?
Tribulus can lower blood pressure and blood sugar on its own. If you're already on meds that do the same thing, you risk dropping your pressure or blood sugar too low, which can be dangerous.
How many active ingredients are in this product?
Just one: tribulus terrestris. The rest of what's in the capsule is gelatin, cellulose, and processing aids — not active ingredients.
Is this safe to take long-term?
Short-term use in healthy adults seems generally well tolerated, but we don't have strong long-term safety data. If you're thinking of taking it regularly, talk with your pharmacist to make sure it fits your situation.
