HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chelated Potassium 99 mg by Radiance
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 product contains one active ingredient: potassium at 99 mg per dose. Potassium is a mineral your body needs for nerve and muscle function, including your heart rhythm.
The supplement also contains several inactive ingredients — crospovidone, silica, vegetable magnesium stearate, and stearic acid — which are excipients that help hold the formula together.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
We don't have effectiveness ratings on file for potassium supplementation in this product. That doesn't mean it doesn't work for its intended purpose — just that the evidence data we hold doesn't include a formal rating.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Potassium from your regular diet is fine and safe. When it comes to supplements, though, the safety picture changes: they can cause dangerously high blood levels in some people, especially those with kidney disease.
A small number of people taking potassium by mouth experience stomach upset — abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, belching, or vomiting. Rarely, very high potassium levels can trigger serious heart problems like irregular heartbeat, low blood pressure, or even heart block.
During pregnancy, potassium from food is appropriate, but supplements should only be used under medical guidance. If you're breastfeeding, check with your doctor before using a potassium supplement — there isn't enough data to know either way on our file.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors, or ARBs (blood pressure and heart medications). All three carry a Moderate risk of raising your potassium to unsafe levels when combined with a supplement.
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 worth considering if your doctor has flagged a potassium need and you don't have kidney disease or take blood pressure meds that affect potassium levels. If you're on any cardiac, blood pressure, or diuretic medication, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — they'll need to know your kidney function and current prescriptions to clear it safely.

Chelated Potassium 99 mg by Radiance Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Radiance Chelated Potassium interacts with three major drug types that affect how your kidneys handle potassium.
The most serious concern is potassium-sparing diuretics (water pills that preserve potassium) — combining them with this supplement raises your risk of dangerously high blood potassium, called hyperkalemia (elevated potassium levels).
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
ACE inhibitors and ARBs — two common blood pressure medications — also increase that same risk. Both work by blocking a system in your body that normally helps you shed extra potassium, so adding a supplement on top can push levels too high.
This is a Moderate severity interaction with each drug type.
Always check your exact medications with the tool below before starting this product. If you take any blood pressure or heart medication, your doctor or pharmacist needs to know before you add a potassium supplement.

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.
