HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Relevia UC-II by NewtonEverett

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Partial disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Partial

Most active ingredients list an amount, but at least one is hidden in a blend or missing.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 3 of its 5 active ingredients.
  • “UC-II standardized Cartilage Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (40 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Relevia UC-II contains five active ingredients. Potassium chloride is a mineral supplement form of potassium.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring compound in joints and connective tissue. Boron glycinate is boron bound to the amino acid glycine.

The product also includes cartilage and a standardized cartilage blend (UC-II), which are forms of collagen thought to support joint structure, plus a total collagen component. The capsule itself and the rice flour, magnesium stearate, and silica are inactive ingredients that help hold the formula together.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
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
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: joint, cartilage and bone health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis, Boron deficiency, Cartilage degradation, Joint mobility, Connective tissue support.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Boron is rated "Likely Effective" for Boron deficiency (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Boron is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis.
  • Also on file: Hyaluronic Acid is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Osteoarthritis.

Hyaluronic acid is possibly effective for dry eye and venous leg ulcers (slow-healing leg wounds), but there isn't enough evidence to rate it for aging skin, hay fever, or sexual dysfunction. Boron glycinate is likely effective for boron deficiency and possibly effective for vaginal yeast infections and radiation-related skin damage, though it appears possibly ineffective for athletic performance.

The effectiveness data we hold doesn't cover potassium supplementation, cartilage, or collagen for any specific use, so we can't speak to what this product may do for joint health or any other purpose.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Hyaluronic Acid Boron 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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Potassium is generally well tolerated by mouth, but excess levels can cause serious problems—especially in people with kidney disease. Common side effects are abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, and bloating; in rare cases, high potassium can cause irregular heartbeat, heart block, low blood pressure, and confusion.

Boron is generally safe in small dietary amounts and low doses, but high doses can be toxic. Hyaluronic acid appears well tolerated overall, though long-term safety of oral supplements isn't fully studied.

For pregnancy and breastfeeding: potassium from food is fine, but the data advises against using potassium supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding without medical guidance. Boron supplements are advised against in pregnancy and breastfeeding due to potential fetal harm and insufficient safety data.

We have no pregnancy/breastfeeding information on file for hyaluronic acid.

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 3 matched ingredients 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, ACE inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs)—these all carry a Moderate risk of dangerously high potassium levels when combined with this product. People with kidney disease are at extra risk.

No interactions are documented for the hyaluronic acid, boron, or cartilage components with any medications we could check.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is mainly a potassium and joint-support formula. If you take blood pressure medications—especially diuretics, ACE inhibitors, or ARBs—you need to check with your pharmacist before starting it, because potassium can interact dangerously with those drugs.

Anyone with kidney disease should also talk to their doctor first. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, discuss this with your doctor before taking it.

Potassium Chloride3 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.
