HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Dulse Seaweed Mint Flavor by TerraVita
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
TerraVita's Organic Dulse Seaweed Mint Flavor contains one active ingredient: a liquid glycerite extract of dulse seaweed. Dulse is a red alga naturally rich in potassium and iodine — minerals your body needs for nerve and thyroid function.
The product also holds glycerin (a common liquid extract base) and mint flavor as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that dulse is effective for lowering cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) or treating iodine deficiency — the data rates both as having insufficient reliable evidence. If you're considering this supplement for one of those purposes, talk with your doctor about whether it's the right choice for you.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Dulse is generally well tolerated as a food, but this supplement delivers concentrated amounts of potassium and iodine — far more than you'd get from eating seaweed casually. Safety data on supplement doses is limited, and unpredictable iodine levels make it hard to predict how your body will respond.
If you're pregnant, excess iodine can pass into breast milk; the safety data advises against taking this supplement in pregnancy or while nursing — talk with your doctor about whether it's right for your situation.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check your medications if you take digoxin (Lanoxin), thyroid hormone, antithyroid drugs, or amiodarone — these have moderate interactions with dulse. Also flag potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blockers (minor interactions).
If any of these apply to you, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
Dulse seaweed is a source of iodine and potassium, but this concentrated supplement carries real risks if you take heart, thyroid, or blood pressure medications. If any of those apply to you, check your medications with the tool on this page before starting, or discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist.
Pregnant or nursing mothers should avoid it and speak with their healthcare provider first.

Organic Dulse Seaweed Mint Flavor by TerraVita Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
TerraVita's Organic Dulse Seaweed Mint Flavor, a liquid extract of dulse seaweed, has documented interactions with multiple medication types, chiefly through its high potassium and iodine content.
The most serious concern is a moderate-severity interaction with digoxin (Lanoxin), a heart medication — dulse's potassium may theoretically raise potassium levels further, though this hasn't been proven in humans.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Dulse also interacts moderately with thyroid medications and antithyroid drugs, because its iodine content can shift how these work or alter thyroid function itself. Similarly, amiodarone (a heart rhythm drug that's already high in iodine) combined with dulse could push iodine levels too high.
Minor interactions exist with potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blockers — all of which raise potassium levels — and dulse's extra potassium may add to that risk, though again human evidence is limited.
Altogether, these interactions span 85 individual medications. Before starting this product, use the search tool on this page to check your exact prescriptions, or talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this supplement fits with what you're taking.

For each ingredient in Organic Dulse Seaweed Mint Flavor 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.
Dulse Seaweed Glycerite Liquid Extract
Amiodarine (Cordarone)
Theoretically, combining dulse with amiodarone might cause excessively high iodine levels.
Dulse is rich in iodine, and amiodarone contains 37.3% iodine and can increase iodine levels.
Antithyroid Drugs
Theoretically, due to its iodine content, dulse might alter the effects of antithyroid drugs.
Dulse is rich in iodine. Iodine in high doses has been reported to cause both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, depending on the individual's past medical history.
Digoxin (Lanoxin)
Theoretically, dulse might increase the risk of hyperkalemia when taken with digoxin.
Dulse is rich in potassium, and digoxin can increase potassium levels in the blood. This interaction has not been demonstrated in humans.
Thyroid Hormone
Theoretically, due to its iodine content, dulse might alter the effects of thyroid hormone.
Dulse is rich in iodine. Iodine in high doses has been reported to cause both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, depending on the individual's past medical history. Although dulse has been associated with a statistically significant increase in thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels in clinical research, clinically significant increases have not been documented.
Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)
Theoretically, dulse might increase the risk of hyperkalemia when taken with ACEIs.
Dulse is rich in potassium. ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels. However, using these drugs while consuming dulse in quantities that provide larger amounts of potassium daily might increase the risk of hyperkalemia. Additionally, in vitro research suggests that dulse protein hydrolysates inhibit the activity of ACE. However, these effects have not been demonstrated in humans.
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Arbs)
Theoretically, dulse might increase the risk of hyperkalemia when taken with ARBs.
Dulse is rich in potassium. ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels. However, using these drugs while consuming dulse in quantities that provide higher amounts of potassium daily might increase the risk of hyperkalemia. Additionally, in vitro research suggests that dulse protein hydrolysates inhibit the activity of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). However, these effects have not been demonstrated in humans.
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics
Theoretically, dulse might increase the risk of hyperkalemia when taken with potassium-sparing diuretics.
Dulse is rich in potassium, and potassium-sparing diuretics can increase potassium levels in the blood. This interaction has not been shown in humans.
