HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Potassium Orotate 450 mg by SuperSmart

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.
  • “Potassium” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (90 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Potassium Orotate 450 mg is a single-ingredient supplement — potassium bound to orotic acid. The capsule also contains acacia gum as an inactive ingredient (a binder).

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

This is a single-ingredient Potassium product and its label doesn't state a use — see Potassium's own graded uses on its monograph.

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

We don't hold effectiveness ratings for potassium orotate in our data, so we can't tell you what the research says it does.

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 fine, but supplements can push your blood levels dangerously high, especially if you have kidney disease — that's why medical guidance matters here. The most common side effects are stomach upset: abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting.

Rarely, very high potassium can cause heart rhythm problems, low blood pressure, or confusion. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, dietary potassium is appropriate, but talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using a supplement — they can help you decide what's right for you.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Potassium

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?
  • 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.

Check with your pharmacist if you take potassium-sparing diuretics (like spironolactone or amiloride), ACE inhibitors (like lisinopril), or ARBs (like losartan) — all are Moderate-severity interactions because this supplement can raise your potassium to unsafe levels.

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 supplement is for people whose doctor has identified a potassium deficiency and recommended supplementation. Don't take it if you're on a potassium-sparing diuretic, ACE inhibitor, or ARB without checking with your pharmacist or doctor first — the risk of dangerously high potassium is real.

If you have kidney disease, definitely talk to your doctor before starting.

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.

Potassium Orotate 450 mg by SuperSmart: Common Questions

Does Potassium Orotate 450 mg by SuperSmart interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Potassium Orotate 450 mg has a known interaction with 62 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Potassium Orotate 450 mg 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.
Can I take this if I have kidney disease?
No — you need to talk with your doctor first. Supplements can cause dangerously high blood potassium in people with kidney disease, even more so than in others. This is a conversation you can't skip.
What are the most common side effects?
Stomach upset: abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting. These are mild and often go away, but if they're bad or don't stop, let your pharmacist know.
Is potassium orotate the same as regular potassium?
It's potassium bound to orotic acid, which is a carrier molecule. The potassium itself is what matters for drug interactions and high-blood-potassium risk — the orotate form doesn't change that.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Potassium from food is fine, but for supplements there isn't enough data to know either way — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice based on your situation.
Why do my blood pressure medications interact with potassium supplements?
ACE inhibitors and ARBs (and potassium-sparing diuretics) all change how your kidneys handle potassium — they make your body hold onto it. Adding a supplement on top can push your levels too high, risking heart rhythm problems.
