Any benefit in taking supplements to raise nitric oxide before and after transfusions

I've just remembered that this is a question I had, has anyone tried taking supplements to increase their nitric oxide to help the efficacy of the transfusion? Is this even possible or does the nitric oxide have to be in the bag of blood for it to work? My mom just started taking L-arginine, L-citrulline, and pycnogenol, going to do some research to see if there's anything out there with really good reviews.
