HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Molybdenum 100 mcg by Kirkman

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: molybdenum, an essential mineral your body needs in small amounts. At 100 micrograms per capsule, it's a straightforward mineral supplement.

The capsule also contains microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose, water, and L-leucine as inactive ingredients to hold the capsule together and aid absorption.

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 Molybdenum's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Molybdenum 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 ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Molybdenum deficiency — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Molybdenum is likely effective for preventing or treating molybdenum deficiency, which is rare in people eating a typical diet. The evidence for acne, iron deficiency anemia, asthma, osteoporosis, and esophageal cancer is insufficient—we don't have reliable data showing whether it works for those conditions.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Molybdenum

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Molybdenum is generally well tolerated when you stay at or below the safe upper limit of 2 mg per day. This 100 mcg dose is well below that ceiling.

However, the safety notes advise caution with high-dose supplements—they're rarely necessary and may cause problems. There's one case report of someone taking 300–800 mcg daily who developed serious neurological symptoms, including seizures and psychosis, after accumulating a large total dose.

The facts also mention molybdenum can trigger a contact allergy in people with certain stainless steel heart stents. If you have a stent, let us know before you start this.

Meds to double-check

No known interactions
Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check. Run your exact medications through the tool on this page or ask a pharmacist to be sure.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

If you've been diagnosed with molybdenum deficiency, this supplement is a good fit. If you're taking it for another reason—acne, anemia, asthma, bone health, or cancer prevention—the evidence isn't there yet.

Stay within normal dietary amounts and avoid high-dose supplements unless your doctor recommends it. If you have a heart stent, check with us first.

Molybdenum 100 mcg by Kirkman: Common Questions

Does Molybdenum 100 mcg by Kirkman interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Molybdenum 100 mcg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Molybdenum 100 mcg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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.
Is molybdenum safe to take every day?
Yes, at this dose of 100 mcg—it's well below the safe daily upper limit of 2 mg. The safety notes caution against high-dose supplements, but this product is in the normal dietary range and is generally well tolerated.
Will molybdenum help my acne (or asthma, or bones)?
The evidence we have isn't reliable enough to say. Molybdenum is proven to help with actual deficiency, but for those other conditions, we just don't have solid data yet.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on file for molybdenum in pregnancy or lactation. Dietary amounts appear fine based on the safety notes, but talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting any supplement while pregnant or nursing—they know your situation best.
What does molybdenum actually do in my body?
Molybdenum is an essential mineral that helps your body with certain enzyme reactions and processes. Most people get enough from food, so deficiency is rare.
Are there any side effects at this dose?
At 100 mcg per day, side effects are not expected—this dose is well within safe limits. High-dose supplements are a different story and can cause serious problems, but this product is not high-dose.
