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.

Pico Potassium contains one active ingredient: potassium, a mineral your body needs for heart rhythm, muscle function, and blood pressure control. The supplement also includes water, citric acid, and potassium sorbate as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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: Essential mineral for electrolyte balance.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hypokalemia, Electrolyte imbalance, Muscle function, Blood pressure regulation.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

The product facts provided do not include effectiveness data for potassium supplementation, so we can't tell you from our records whether this product works for any specific purpose.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Potassium

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.

Potassium from food is safe for most people, but supplements are a different story — they can raise your blood levels dangerously, especially if you have kidney disease. The facts advise caution and medical guidance before using potassium supplements during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, though dietary potassium itself is appropriate.

When you take potassium by mouth, most people tolerate it well. Common mild side effects include belly pain, belching, diarrhea, gas, nausea, and vomiting.

Serious effects are rare but real: very high potassium can cause irregular heartbeats, heart block, low blood pressure, or confusion. Slow-release potassium tablets have been linked to bleeding ulcers in the small intestine.

Moderate identified

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

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Potassium.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 62 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 this supplement, check with your pharmacist if you're on potassium-sparing diuretics (water pills that save potassium), ACE inhibitors, or ARBs (blood pressure medications). All three drug types raise your risk of dangerously high potassium when combined with supplements.

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.

Potassium supplements make sense for people whose doctor has identified a deficiency and prescribed supplementation. If you take any blood pressure medication, water pill, or have kidney disease, talk with your pharmacist or doctor before adding this product — the interaction risk is real and potentially serious.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Pico Potassium 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.

Potassium3 drug types · 62 drugs

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.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
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.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics

Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
