HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tribulus Alcohol Free by Hawaii Pharm

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.

This product contains one active ingredient: Tribulus terrestris Fruit Extract, Dry. It also includes glycerin and water as inactive ingredients.

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Tribulus's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Tribulus for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Sexual dysfunction — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Tribulus terrestris has possibly effective evidence for sexual dysfunction — clinical research suggests it may help, though the evidence is not definitive. For athletic performance, the evidence suggests it's possibly ineffective.

The safety data we have don't establish a clear rating for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), an enlarged prostate that can affect urination.

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 short-term in healthy adults, but quality and long-term safety data are limited. Rare serious side effects including liver and kidney injury, seizures, and chronic painful erection have been reported.

More common are mild gastrointestinal complaints like abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation — though in one study these occurred at rates similar to placebo. You should avoid this product during pregnancy because it may affect hormones and safety is not established.

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

  • 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.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Tribulus Alcohol Free may be worth considering if you're exploring natural support for sexual function, though the evidence is modest. If you take blood pressure medication, diabetes medication, or lithium, talk to your pharmacist before starting — this product can interact with all three.

Long-term safety data are limited, so stick with short-term use in healthy adults and stay in touch with your pharmacist about how you're doing.

Tribulus Alcohol Free by Hawaii Pharm: Common Questions

Does Tribulus Alcohol Free by Hawaii Pharm interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tribulus Alcohol Free 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?
Tribulus Alcohol Free 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. Avoid this product during pregnancy because it may affect hormones and safety is not established. Also avoid while breastfeeding because there's not enough reliable safety information.
What is Tribulus terrestris used for?
Research suggests it may help with sexual dysfunction, though the evidence is not definitive. It doesn't appear effective for athletic performance, and there isn't enough evidence to rate it for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
What are the side effects?
Most people tolerate it well short-term. Mild gastrointestinal side effects like abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation can occur, though one study found these at rates similar to placebo. Rare serious side effects including liver and kidney injury and seizures have been reported.
Is this safe long-term?
Quality and long-term safety data are limited. It's considered generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, but we don't have solid evidence on safety if you take it over extended periods.
Why does this interact with blood pressure and diabetes medications?
Tribulus can lower blood pressure and blood sugar on its own. When combined with medications that do the same thing, you risk your blood pressure or blood sugar dropping too low, which can be dangerous.
