HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Copper Chelated Form Formula by TumoRx
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
Low disclosure
Copper Chelated Form Formula contains 2 active ingredients. The first is Slippery Elm, an inner bark traditionally used for digestive support.
The second is Copper in a chelated form—meaning it's bound to another compound so your body can absorb it more easily. The product is encased in a gelatin capsule.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The evidence supporting these ingredients is limited. Slippery Elm hasn't been studied reliably enough to establish whether it works for cancer, constipation, cough, inflammatory bowel disease, or diarrhea—the data we hold rates all of these as insufficient evidence.
Copper has stronger support: it's likely effective for treating copper deficiency. For other uses listed (Alzheimer disease, acne, and chemotherapy-induced anemia), evidence is either insufficient or suggests it may not work.
The product's labeling may claim additional benefits, but the clinical evidence in our data doesn't support those claims.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Slippery Elm is generally well tolerated for short-term use, though high-quality safety studies are scarce. Rarely, it's caused contact dermatitis and hives in people exposed to the bark or its pollen.
Don't use this product during pregnancy—there isn't enough reliable data to know it's safe, and some sources advise against it. Breastfeeding safety also hasn't been studied enough; talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it while nursing.
Copper itself is safe in the amounts found in food and standard supplements, but excessive copper can be toxic. During pregnancy, copper is actually needed by your body, and recommended amounts are considered safe—but don't take high-dose supplements without medical guidance.
The same caution applies while breastfeeding. A very small number of children in one trial developed superficial burns after topical copper sulfate, though oral supplements carry a different risk profile.
People with diabetes should be aware that higher blood copper levels are common in diabetes, though it's unclear whether extra copper makes diabetes worse.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen) and all other oral medications before you start—slippery elm may slow their absorption. Also check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take birth control pills, since this supplement contains copper and contraceptives can already raise your copper levels.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is best for someone who wants copper supplementation and has confirmed copper deficiency—and no other medications, especially not penicillamine or birth control pills. If you take any prescription drugs or over-the-counter medications, check them through the tool on this page first.
Talk with your pharmacist before using it during pregnancy, while breastfeeding, or if you have diabetes.

Copper Chelated Form Formula by TumoRx Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Copper Chelated Form Formula by TumoRx does interact with certain medications, primarily through its copper content.
The most serious documented interaction is with penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen), a medication used for Wilson's disease and rheumatoid arthritis. Copper binds to penicillamine and reduces how much of it your body absorbs, which can weaken its effects.
If you take penicillamine, you'll need to space this supplement and that drug at least 2 hours apart.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The product also has a minor interaction with birth control pills. Studies show that taking oral contraceptives over time can raise your blood copper levels by an average of 57 mcg/dL—high enough to push levels above the normal range in most people.
Adding a copper supplement on top of that could theoretically increase copper to unsafe levels.
Slippery Elm, the other active ingredient, may slow how quickly your body absorbs oral medications in general because of its mucilage content, a thick substance that coats the digestive tract. This is rated Moderate severity, though the exact drugs affected aren't specified in our data.
Altogether, these interactions span 2,028 individual medications. Before you start this supplement, run any prescription or over-the-counter drugs you take through the checker on this page.

For each ingredient in Copper Chelated Form Formula with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Slippery Elm
Oral Drugs
Theoretically, slippery elm may slow the absorption and reduce serum levels of oral drugs.
Slippery elm inner bark contains mucilage, which may interfere with the absorption of orally administered drugs.
Copper Chelate
Penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen)
Theoretically, taking copper with penicillamine might decrease the absorption of penicillamine; separate dosing by at least 2 hours.
Copper chelates penicillamine, which decreases its absorption and may reduce its clinical effects.
Contraceptive Drugs
Theoretically, taking copper with contraceptive drugs might increase the levels and toxic effects of copper.
A meta-analysis of clinical studies suggests that chronic use of oral contraceptives increases serum copper levels by a mean of 57 mcg/dL. In most people, this resulted in levels above the normal reference range for copper.
