Six mineral lines
Magnesium 50 mg, Chromium 12 mcg, Molybdenum, Manganese and Potassium in Reviralis
Magnesium 50 mg supplement amounts are small in Reviralis: 12% of the Daily Value and 14% of the 350 mg supplement upper limit. The same group prints calcium 20 mg, manganese 0.4 mg, chromium 12 mcg, molybdenum 10 mcg and potassium 50 mg per serving of two capsules. It is not a calcium or potassium supplement.

The six lines01
How much magnesium, calcium and trace mineral is in Reviralis?
Reviralis prints magnesium at 50 mg, calcium at 20 mg, manganese at 0.4 mg, chromium at 12 mcg, molybdenum at 10 mcg and potassium at 50 mg per serving of two capsules. All six have printed amounts, outside the 661 mg blend.
Q: Is any of these a mineral supplement in its own right? A: No. Calcium at 2% and potassium at 1% of the Daily Value are trace amounts. Magnesium at 12% is the largest share.
| Mineral | Amount | Daily Value | Share of upper limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magnesium | 50 mg | 12% | 14% of 350 mg |
| Calcium | 20 mg | 2% | No limit cited |
| Manganese | 0.4 mg | 17% | 3.6% of 11 mg |
| Chromium | 12 mcg | 34% | No limit set |
| Molybdenum | 10 mcg | 22% | 0.5% of 2,000 mcg |
| Potassium | 50 mg | 1% | No limit set |
Name by name02
What should you know about each mineral line?
Each is a mineral the body needs. The label amount says what a serving supplies.
Calcium (as calcium carbonate), 20 mg
This is 2% of the Daily Value. We found no source for this line, so we state only the label percentage.
Magnesium (as magnesium oxide), 50 mg
The 350 mg limit counts supplements and medicines, not food. Magnesium can bind some antibiotics, so a pharmacist can give the spacing (NIH ODS, Magnesium).
Manganese (amino acid chelate), 0.4 mg
This is 17% of the Daily Value and 3.6% of the 11 mg limit, with no caution at this amount (NASEM 2019, DRI Tolerable Upper Intake Levels for Elements).
Chromium (polynicotinate), 12 mcg
No upper limit is set. Chromium may change how levothyroxine is absorbed and how insulin or metformin act (NIH ODS, Chromium).
Molybdenum (amino acid chelate), 10 mcg
This is about 0.5% of the 2,000 mcg limit, with no caution at this amount (NASEM 2019, DRI Tolerable Upper Intake Levels for Elements).
Potassium (as potassium citrate), 50 mg
This is 1% of the Daily Value. We found no source for this line, so only the label percentage is stated.

How do these amounts look next to their limits?
Tap a ring, then switch to the upper-limit view.
Per serving (2 capsules). The Daily Value is the label reference amount; the upper limit is the most NIH says is safe for nearly all healthy adults from supplements (NIH ODS, Zinc) (NIH ODS, Vitamin C) (NASEM 2019, DRI Tolerable Upper Intake Levels for Elements) (NIH ODS, Vitamin B6) (NIH ODS, Folate) (NIH ODS, Vitamin E) (NIH ODS, Niacin) (NIH ODS, Magnesium). A vitamin line above 100% of the Daily Value is not a warning by itself; the upper limit is the line to watch. Rings are drawn from the label, not from a lab test.
The evidence04
Does chromium or magnesium help with herpes outbreaks?
No cited source says so. These minerals are nutrients, and no study tested Reviralis.
The sales page quotes "Supports a calm stress response". Stress is linked to herpes recurrence only weakly across 11 studies (Chida and Mao 2009, Stress and HSV Recurrence (Brain Behav Immun)), and no cited trial tested a mineral for it. Herpes has no cure, and prescribed antivirals are the proven care (CDC, About Genital Herpes).
Levothyroxine, insulin, metformin, a loop or thiazide diuretic, or a quinolone or tetracycline antibiotic (NIH ODS, Magnesium) (NIH ODS, Chromium).

FAQ07
Questions about magnesium and trace minerals in Reviralis
How much magnesium is in Reviralis?
The label prints 50 mg of magnesium as magnesium oxide per serving of two capsules, 12% of the Daily Value. The adult upper limit from supplements is 350 mg, so the label is about 14% of it.
Is Reviralis a calcium supplement?
No. It prints 20 mg of calcium as calcium carbonate, only 2% of the Daily Value. We found no source for this line, so we state the label percentage and nothing more.
Does chromium 12 mcg affect diabetes medicine?
Chromium may change how insulin or metformin act and how levothyroxine is absorbed. The label amount is 34% of the Daily Value with no upper limit set. Ask a clinician if you take any of these.
How much manganese and molybdenum are in Reviralis?
Manganese is 0.4 mg, about 3.6% of its 11 mg limit. Molybdenum is 10 mcg, about 0.5% of its 2,000 mcg limit. Both are far below the adult upper limits.
Does Reviralis have enough potassium?
It prints 50 mg of potassium as potassium citrate, 1% of the Daily Value. That is a trace amount, not a potassium supplement. We found no source for this line.
Can magnesium interact with antibiotics?
Yes. Magnesium can bind some antibiotics and lower how much you absorb. Ask a pharmacist how many hours to separate them.
