HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chelated Potassium 99 mg by CPC Contract Pharmacal Corporation
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
This supplement contains one active ingredient: potassium chelated gluconate, supplying 99 mg of elemental potassium per tablet. The inactive ingredients are microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, stearic acid, and croscarmellose sodium — these are fillers and binders that help hold the tablet together.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
No effectiveness ratings are on file for potassium supplementation in our data. The evidence to support its use for specific conditions isn't established in what we hold.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Potassium from food is safe, but supplements can cause dangerously high blood levels in some people — especially those with kidney problems. Oral potassium is generally well tolerated, though the most common side effects are abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting.
Serious effects are rare but include heart arrhythmia, low blood pressure, and cardiac arrest, usually tied to excessively high potassium levels. During pregnancy, dietary potassium is fine, but potassium supplements should be used only under medical guidance.
For breastfeeding, check with your doctor before using supplements — there isn't enough data to know they're risk-free on their own.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you start this product, check whether you take potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers. All three interact at Moderate severity — they raise the risk of dangerously high potassium.
Use the medication checker on this page to search your exact drugs, or call your doctor or pharmacist first.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This supplement is for people whose doctor or pharmacist has advised them to add potassium — not for self-treatment. If you take a blood pressure medication, a water pill, or have kidney disease, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it.
They'll help you figure out whether this product is right for you and whether your medications need monitoring.

Chelated Potassium 99 mg by CPC Contract Pharmacal Corporation Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Chelated Potassium 99 mg by CPC Contract Pharmacal Corporation does interact with several common blood pressure and heart medications.
The most serious concern is with potassium-sparing diuretics (water pills that preserve potassium) — combining them with this supplement raises the risk of dangerously high potassium levels (hyperkalemia), a Moderate severity interaction that can affect your heart rhythm.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) — two major classes of blood pressure medications — also carry a Moderate risk when paired with potassium supplements. Both types of drugs reduce how much potassium your body excretes, so adding a supplement on top can push potassium to unsafe levels.
Additionally, we hold no interaction data for the inactive ingredients in this tablet. Altogether, these interactions span 62 individual medications.
Before you start this supplement, run your exact blood pressure and heart medications through the interaction checker below, or talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's safe for you.

For each ingredient in Chelated Potassium 99 mg with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Potassium
Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)
Using ACEIs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Arbs)
Using ARBs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics
Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
