Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 5 of its 5 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Nutrisorb Trace Minerals contains five active mineral ingredients: chromium, boron, selenium, manganese, and molybdenum. Each plays a specific role in supporting mineral status—chromium helps regulate blood glucose, selenium supports immune and thyroid function, manganese is involved in bone health and metabolism, boron contributes to bone strength and calcium regulation, and molybdenum supports enzyme function.

This product is a liquid formulation, making it easy to measure and take. The formula also contains inactive ingredients including water, citric acid, and mineral salts that serve as carriers and preservatives.

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
Not assessable

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: antioxidant immune and energy support.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

Chromium is likely effective for chromium deficiency and possibly effective for diabetes; it's possibly ineffective for prediabetes, schizophrenia, and high blood pressure. Boron is likely effective for boron deficiency and possibly effective for vaginal yeast infections and radiation skin damage, though it's possibly ineffective for athletic performance.

Selenium is likely effective for selenium deficiency and possibly effective for Kashin-Beck disease, pre-eclampsia, and autoimmune thyroiditis, but possibly ineffective for high cholesterol. Manganese is effective for manganese deficiency; the evidence for hay fever, osteoporosis, COPD, obesity, and osteoarthritis is insufficient to rate.

Molybdenum is likely effective for molybdenum deficiency; evidence for acne, iron-deficiency anemia, asthma, osteoporosis, and esophageal cancer is insufficient to rate.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chromium Boron Selenium Manganese 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 5 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Chromium is generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses, though high or long-term doses carry risks. Common side effects include gastrointestinal irritation, headaches, insomnia, and mood changes; rare serious effects include kidney and liver damage and blood disorders.

Boron is generally safe at doses below 20 mg daily but can be toxic at higher amounts, with common effects including loss of appetite, skin irritation, and indigestion. Selenium is well tolerated at or below 400 mcg daily; excess can cause hair loss, skin problems, nail changes, nausea, and at very high doses, organ damage.

Manganese at appropriate doses is generally well tolerated, but high doses carry a risk of neurotoxicity and Parkinson-like symptoms. Molybdenum is generally well tolerated when kept below 2 mg daily.

Regarding pregnancy: chromium is likely or possibly safe; boron should be avoided; selenium is possibly safe or possibly unsafe; manganese and molybdenum are likely or possibly safe. For breastfeeding: chromium is likely safe; boron should be avoided; selenium is possibly safe; manganese data is limited or unsafe; molybdenum is likely safe.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 3 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Manganese, Chromium, Selenium.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 520 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking Nutrisorb Trace Minerals, double-check these medication types with your doctor or pharmacist: insulin and antidiabetes drugs (moderate risk of low blood sugar), blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (moderate risk of increased bleeding), levothyroxine or other thyroid medication (moderate—chromium may reduce absorption), barbiturate sedatives (moderate—selenium may prolong effects), warfarin specifically (moderate—selenium may interfere), immunosuppressants (moderate—selenium may reduce effectiveness), antipsychotic drugs (moderate—manganese toxicity risk), and quinolone or tetracycline antibiotics (moderate—manganese may reduce absorption).

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 product may be right for you if you want to supplement specific trace minerals and don't take medications that interact with chromium, selenium, or manganese. If you take insulin, blood-sugar medication, blood thinners, antipsychotics, antibiotics, or thyroid medication, you'll want to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting—several of these minerals can affect how those drugs work.

Pregnant or breastfeeding? Talk it over with your healthcare provider first, since safety varies by ingredient.

Use the medication checker on this page to see whether your specific prescriptions interact with these minerals.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Nutrisorb Trace Minerals 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.

Selenium6 drug types · 321 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Selenium may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Clinical research suggests that taking selenium 10 mcg/kg/day can increase bleeding times by increasing prostacyclin production, which inhibits platelet activity. Other clinical research suggests that taking selenium 75 mcg daily, in combination with ascorbic acid 600 mg, alpha-tocopherol 300 mg, and beta-carotene 27 mg, reduces platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Barbiturates

Theoretically, selenium might prolong the sedating effects of barbiturates.
Laboratory research suggests that selenium can inhibit the hepatic metabolism of barbiturates. Selenium seems to prolong the sedative effect of pentobarbital in animal models.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, selenium supplementation may reduce the effectiveness of immunosuppressant therapy.
In vitro research and preliminary clinical evidence suggests that selenium may stimulate the immune system.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, selenium might interfere with warfarin activity.
Animal research suggests that selenium can increase warfarin activity. Selenium might interact with warfarin by displacing it from albumin binding sites, reducing its metabolism in the liver, or by decreasing production of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. Selenium can also prolong bleeding times in humans by increasing prostacyclin production, which inhibits platelet activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Contraceptive Drugs

Contraceptive drugs might increase levels of selenium, although the clinical significance of this effect is unclear.
Some research suggests that oral contraceptives increase serum selenium levels in women taking oral contraceptives; however, other research shows no change in selenium levels. It is suggested that an increase could be due to increased carrier proteins, indicating a redistribution of selenium rather than a change in total body selenium.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Niacin

Selenium might reduce the beneficial effects of niacin on high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels.
A combination of niacin and simvastatin (Zocor) effectively raises HDL cholesterol levels in patients with coronary disease and low HDL levels. Clinical research shows that taking a combination of antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and selenium) along with niacin and simvastatin (Zocor) attenuates this rise in HDL, specifically the HDL-2 and apolipoprotein A1 fractions, by more than 50% in patients with coronary disease. It is not known whether this adverse effect is due to a single antioxidant such as selenium, or to the combination. It also is not known whether it will occur in other patient populations.

Likelihood Possible Evidence A
Selenium full monograph & interactions

Chromium5 drug types · 178 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, chromium may have additive effects with antidiabetic agents and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Some research shows that taking chromium might lower blood glucose levels, especially in patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence A
Insulin

Theoretically, concomitant use of chromium and insulin might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
In clinical research, chromium has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity,

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)

Chromium might bind levothyroxine in the intestinal tract and decrease levothyroxine absorption.
Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that taking chromium picolinate 1000 mcg with levothyroxine 1 mg decreases serum levels of levothyroxine by 17% when compared to taking levothyroxine alone. Advise patients to take levothyroxine at least 30 minutes before or 3-4 hours after taking chromium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Aspirin

Theoretically, aspirin might increase chromium absorption.
Animal research suggests that aspirin may increase chromium absorption and chromium levels in the blood.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (Nsaids)

NSAIDs might increase chromium levels in the body.
Drugs that are prostaglandin inhibitors, such as NSAIDs, seem to increase chromium absorption and retention.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Chromium full monograph & interactions

Manganese3 drug types · 83 drugs

Antipsychotic Drugs

Theoretically, the risk for manganese toxicity might increase when taken with antipsychotic drugs.
Hallucinations and behavioral changes have been reported in a patient with liver disease who was taking haloperidol and manganese. Researchers speculate that taking manganese along with haloperidol, phenothiazine-derivatives, or other antipsychotic medications might increase the risk of manganese toxicity in some patients.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Quinolone Antibiotics

Theoretically, manganese might reduce the absorption of quinolone antibiotics.
Manganese is a multivalent cation. Interactions resulting in reduced quinolone absorption have been reported between quinolones and other multivalent cations, such as calcium and iron.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, manganese might reduce the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics.
Manganese is a multivalent cation. Interactions resulting in reduced tetracycline absorption have been reported between tetracyclines and other multivalent cations, such as calcium and iron.

Nutrisorb Trace Minerals by BioCare: Common Questions

Does Nutrisorb Trace Minerals by BioCare interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Nutrisorb Trace Minerals has a known interaction with 520 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Nutrisorb Trace Minerals contains 5 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
Will this affect my insulin or blood sugar medication?
Yes—chromium in this product may lower blood glucose and increase insulin sensitivity, which could add to your medication's effect and raise the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, and they may want to monitor your blood sugar more closely or adjust your dose.
Can I take this with my thyroid medication (levothyroxine)?
Chromium may bind to levothyroxine in your stomach and reduce how much of it your body absorbs—research shows about a 17% drop in levels. Your doctor or pharmacist can advise you on timing or whether an adjustment is needed.
Is this product safe if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
It depends on the ingredient. Chromium is likely or possibly safe in pregnancy; boron should be avoided; selenium is possibly safe or unsafe depending on dose; and data for manganese and molybdenum in lactation is limited or unsafe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
What are the most common side effects?
Chromium may cause stomach upset, headaches, or mood changes. Boron can cause loss of appetite or skin irritation. Selenium may trigger stomach discomfort, headaches, or rash at higher doses. At typical supplement levels, side effects are generally mild.
Can I take this with blood thinners like warfarin?
Selenium in this product may interfere with warfarin's action or increase bleeding risk. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting—they'll know your specific situation and can monitor you if needed.
What if I take antibiotics?
Manganese may reduce how well your body absorbs quinolone (like ciprofloxacin) or tetracycline antibiotics. Space them apart as your pharmacist advises, or ask whether timing matters for your specific antibiotic.
