HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Potassium Chelated Form Formula 350 mg 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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (350 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This formula contains 2 active ingredients: a proprietary blend (whose specific components aren't listed separately here) and slippery elm, an inner-bark plant material traditionally used for digestive and respiratory support. The product also delivers potassium in chelated form—a chemical structure meant to help your body absorb it more easily.

The capsule itself is made from gelatin.

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence on slippery elm for its common uses—cancer, constipation, cough, inflammatory bowel disease, and diarrhea—is insufficient. We simply don't have enough high-quality research to say whether it works for any of these.

Effectiveness data for the proprietary blend and potassium potency isn't established in the facts we hold, so we can't make claims about what this particular formula accomplishes.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Slippery Elm 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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Slippery elm is generally well tolerated for short-term use, though high-quality safety data are limited. Rarely, it can cause contact dermatitis or hives on the skin, and its pollen is a known allergen.

For potassium, oral supplements are generally well tolerated, but the facts advise caution: supplements can push your blood levels dangerously high, especially if you have kidney disease or take certain blood pressure medications. Common mild side effects from potassium include belly pain, bloating, diarrhea, and nausea; rare serious effects are irregular heartbeat, heart block, low blood pressure, and mental confusion—all tied to high potassium levels.

On pregnancy: potassium from food is fine, but supplements should only be used under medical guidance during pregnancy. For breastfeeding, the data on slippery elm safety is too limited to say either way—talk with your doctor or pharmacist.

Dietary potassium is appropriate while breastfeeding, but check first before using supplements.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Potassium, Slippery Elm.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 2,023 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.

If you take ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) for blood pressure, or potassium-sparing diuretics (water pills), check with your doctor or pharmacist first—potassium supplements raise the risk of dangerously high blood potassium with all three types. Additionally, if you take other oral medications regularly, slippery elm may slow their absorption and lower their effectiveness.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is worth discussing with your doctor or pharmacist before you start, especially if you take blood pressure medications or water pills—potassium supplements aren't for everyone. If you have kidney disease or high blood potassium levels, avoid it without explicit medical clearance.

The slippery elm and potassium here aren't established to treat cancer, constipation, cough, or digestive issues in the research we hold. Talk it over with your own healthcare provider to see if it fits your needs.

Slippery Elm1 drug type · 2,022 drugs

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Potassium Complex3 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.

Potassium Chelated Form Formula 350 mg by TumorX: Common Questions

Does Potassium Chelated Form Formula 350 mg by TumorX interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Potassium Chelated Form Formula 350 mg has a known interaction with 2,022 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Potassium Chelated Form Formula 350 mg contains 2 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.
Can I take this if I'm on blood pressure medication?
It depends on which one. ACE inhibitors and ARBs both increase your risk of high blood potassium when combined with potassium supplements. Potassium-sparing water pills do the same. Check with your doctor or pharmacist about your specific prescription before starting this product.
What's slippery elm supposed to do?
Slippery elm bark is traditionally used for cough, constipation, diarrhea, digestive inflammation, and other digestive issues, but the research evidence we hold is insufficient to confirm it works for any of these uses.
Will this slow down my other medications?
Possibly. Slippery elm's mucilage can interfere with how your body absorbs oral drugs, potentially lowering their levels in your bloodstream. If you take regular medications, mention this supplement when you talk with your pharmacist.
What are the most common side effects?
From potassium, you might experience belly pain, bloating, diarrhea, or nausea. Slippery elm is usually mild, but rarely can cause a skin rash or allergic reaction if you're sensitive to it.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Potassium from food is fine during both pregnancy and breastfeeding, but supplements should only be used under medical guidance. For slippery elm, there isn't enough data to say either way—talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Does it work for cancer?
The evidence on slippery elm for cancer is insufficient; we don't have enough reliable research to know. This product shouldn't replace any cancer treatment prescribed by your doctor.
