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.

Tribulus 1000 mg by Amazing Muscle contains one active ingredient: a standardized extract of tribulus (Tribulus terrestris) at 1,000 mg per tablet. The product also contains several inactive ingredients — calcium carbonate, vegetable cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, stearic acid, silica, magnesium stearate, and a vegetable coating — which are fillers and binders that help hold the tablet together.

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: cardiovascular health, immune function, reproductive health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Erectile dysfunction (ED), Male infertility, Premature ejaculation, Sexual dysfunction, Hypercholesterolemia — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Tribulus is rated "Possibly Effective" for Sexual dysfunction (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Tribulus is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Athletic performance.
  • Also on file: Tribulus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Angina, Erectile dysfunction (ED), Hypercholesterolemia, Hypertension, and more.

The evidence on tribulus for sexual function is mixed. Clinical research suggests it may possibly help with sexual dysfunction, though the data aren't definitive.

For athletic performance, the research points to possibly ineffective — meaning the evidence doesn't support better strength or endurance. For benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), we don't have 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 generally well tolerated in the short term for healthy adults, but long-term safety data are limited and quality varies between products. Serious side effects are rare but have been reported — including liver and kidney injury, seizures, and persistent painful erection with impaired sexual function.

More common mild side effects can include stomach pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation, though one study found these occurred at rates similar to placebo. The safety data advise against tribulus during pregnancy because it may affect hormones and safety isn't established.

Avoid it while breastfeeding due to lack of reliable safety information.

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check

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 — Tribulus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 259 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.

Before you take Tribulus 1000 mg, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood pressure medications (Moderate interaction risk), diabetes medications (Moderate risk), or lithium (Moderate risk). These are the medication types where documented interactions exist.

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.

Tribulus may help with sexual function, though the evidence is still developing. If you take blood pressure medication, diabetes medication, or lithium, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement — tribulus can affect how these drugs work.

Because long-term safety data are limited, this isn't a long-term supplement to use without a reason, and it's not for pregnancy or breastfeeding.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tribulus 1000 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.
Does tribulus really help with sexual function?
Clinical research suggests it may possibly help, though the evidence isn't conclusive enough to guarantee results. The data we hold rate it as possibly effective for sexual dysfunction, so it's worth discussing with your doctor if you're curious about trying it.
Can I take this if I'm trying to improve athletic performance?
The research on tribulus for strength or endurance points to possibly ineffective — meaning the evidence doesn't support that it will improve your athletic performance. If that's your main reason, this product probably isn't the one.
What side effects should I watch for?
Mild stomach issues like cramping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation can happen, though one study found these occurred at rates similar to placebo. Serious side effects are rare but have been reported — liver or kidney injury, seizures, and persistent painful erection are examples. Stop and see your doctor right away if you notice anything unusual.
Is it safe to take tribulus long-term?

Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — the safety data advise against tribulus in pregnancy because it may affect hormones and safety isn't established. Avoid it while breastfeeding too, due to lack of reliable safety information. Talk with your obstetrician or midwife if you have questions.
What's in this tablet besides the active ingredient?
The tablet also contains calcium carbonate, vegetable cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, stearic acid, silica, magnesium stearate, and a vegetable coating — these are inactive ingredients that bind and coat the tablet.
