HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tribulus-Pro by BodyTech

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

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Tribulus-Pro contains 2 active ingredients per serving. Tribulus terrestris extract is a plant commonly used for sexual function and athletic performance.

Oat straw extract is derived from the oat plant and has been studied for its effects on cholesterol and heart health. The capsule also contains gelatin, microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate as inactive ingredients (binders and fillers).

Does it work?

Strong 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 its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports its ingredients 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Coronary heart disease (CHD) — rated "Likely Effective" (Oats) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Dyslipidemia — rated "Likely Effective" (Oats) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Sexual dysfunction — rated "Possibly Effective" (Tribulus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Diabetes — rated "Possibly Effective" (Oats) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Gastric cancer — rated "Possibly Effective" (Oats) (Natural Medicines).

Tribulus terrestris shows possibly effective evidence for sexual dysfunction, though the data is limited. It appears possibly ineffective for athletic performance and has insufficient evidence to rate it for benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate).

Oat straw extract is likely effective for lowering cholesterol (dyslipidemia) and supporting heart health. Keep in mind the evidence supporting tribulus is modest, and long-term safety data are limited.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Tribulus Oats

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • 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 information are sparse. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal — abdominal pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation — though in one study these rates were similar to placebo.

Rare serious effects including liver and kidney injury and seizures have been reported. Oat straw is generally well tolerated; the main side effects are bloating, flatulence, and gas, which typically fade with continued use as your body adjusts to the added fiber.

Avoid this product during pregnancy; tribulus may affect hormones and safety is not established. Do not use while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Tribulus, Oats.
  • 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 taking Tribulus-Pro, double-check if you're on antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medications) — tribulus can lower blood pressure further, raising hypotension risk. Similarly, check any antidiabetes drugs or insulin you take, as both ingredients may increase low blood sugar risk.

If you take lithium, let your pharmacist know, as tribulus may raise lithium levels in your blood.

The bottom line

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

Tribulus-Pro may appeal to those interested in sexual function or cholesterol support, but it's not for everyone. If you take blood pressure medications, diabetes drugs, insulin, or lithium, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — the interactions could affect how well your medications work.

Pregnant or breastfeeding people should avoid it. Your pharmacist can help you decide if it fits your routine.

Tribulus terrestris 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.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, oats may have additive effects with antidiabetic agents and might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Consuming oats can decrease blood glucose in patients with diabetes. In those who require insulin, taking oats 100 grams daily for 2 days reduces the insulin dose required to achieve metabolic control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Insulin

Concomitant use of oats and insulin might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
In patients with insulin-dependent type 2 diabetes, taking oats 100 grams daily for 2 days reduces the insulin dose required to achieve metabolic control.

Tribulus-Pro by BodyTech: Common Questions

Does Tribulus-Pro by BodyTech interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tribulus-Pro 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-Pro contains 2 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 tribulus really help with sexual function?
The evidence suggests tribulus is possibly effective for sexual dysfunction, but the data are limited. Results vary from person to person, and more robust research would help clarify how well it actually works.
What are the most common side effects?
Gastrointestinal complaints — bloating, gas, nausea, and cramping — are the most common. Oat straw's fiber content can also cause these initially, but they often settle down as your body adjusts. In studies, these rates were often no higher than with placebo.
Can I take this if I'm trying to get pregnant or I'm pregnant?
No. Tribulus is rated possibly unsafe in pregnancy because it may affect hormones and safety hasn't been established. Avoid it if you're pregnant or trying to conceive. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about safer options.
Is oat straw actually good for cholesterol?
Yes, oat straw extract is likely effective for lowering cholesterol and supporting heart health. That evidence is more robust than the tribulus data in this product.
How long does it take to work?
The product facts don't provide data on how quickly you might notice effects. If you start it, give it time and track any changes, but discuss realistic timelines with your pharmacist based on your individual goals.
