Can You Take Calcium and Potassium Together?

No documented interaction was identified between calcium and potassium in the sources reviewed.

No documented interaction identifiedEvidence: Moderate

What the interaction means

The NIH Office of Dietary Supplements' potassium fact sheet mentions calcium only in the context of low dietary potassium being associated with lower bone calcium over time (a nutrition-education point, not a supplement-interaction claim). The calcium fact sheet's interactions section does not mention potassium at all.

No documented interaction was identified in the authoritative sources reviewed. This is not a guarantee that no interaction exists for every dose, formulation, or individual -- it means the sources checked did not document one.

Practical context

Both substances' own current NIH fact sheets were checked directly; neither documents a supplement-interaction between them.
