Molybdenum and Iodine in Multivitamins: Limits and Thyroid Notes
Molybdenum and iodine in multivitamins are rare lines that few people check. Reviralis prints molybdenum 10 mcg per two capsules, 22% of the Daily Value, against a 2,000 mcg upper limit. Its Supplement Facts show no iodine line among the 22 vitamin and mineral lines. Thyroid medicine calls for a pharmacist question.

How much molybdenum is in a multivitamin like this?
Reviralis prints molybdenum 10 mcg per two capsules, 22% of the Daily Value.
Adults need 45 mcg and the upper limit is 2,000 mcg (National Academies, trace-element DRIs). So the line is 0.5% of the limit, and a shortage is almost never seen. The form is a molybdenum amino acid chelate.
| Measure | Amount | Share the label line fills |
|---|---|---|
| Label line (2 capsules) | 10 mcg, 22% DV | Printed |
| Adult need | 45 mcg | 22% |
| Upper limit | 2,000 mcg | 0.5% |
Does the Reviralis label list iodine?
No. The 22 vitamin and mineral lines on the Supplement Facts do not include iodine.
The blend names do not include it either. That is a plain gap, not a fault. Iodine is part of thyroid hormone, and many multivitamins carry it. If you rely on a multivitamin for iodine, this label will not supply any, so check your diet and your other products. Seaweed and kelp products can hold large amounts, so ask before adding them.
The full list is on the Supplement Facts page.
Why do thyroid readers get extra cautions?
Several minerals on this label can lower the absorption of thyroid hormone when taken together.
Calcium, iron and magnesium are the ones NIH names (NIH ODS, Calcium). Tyrosine, in the blend as N-acetyl L-tyrosine, may matter too, though we found no source naming a tyrosine and thyroid medicine interaction. And biotin can distort some thyroid blood tests, although 3 mcg is tiny. Tell the lab about any biotin product.
Keep taking thyroid medicine and any other prescription, including an antiviral. Ask your pharmacist about timing before changing anything.

See packsWhat should I ask my pharmacist about thyroid medicine?
Ask about timing and about any lab test you have coming.
- How many hours should I leave between thyroid tablets and minerals?
- Does tyrosine matter for my dose?
- Should I tell the lab about biotin before a thyroid test?
- Is iodine in my other products adding up?
The label asks anyone with a medical condition or on prescription medicine to check with a provider first. No source tests Reviralis itself. More is in the thyroid medicine post, the medicine check page and the trace minerals group.
FAQ01
Reviralis questions people ask
Does Reviralis contain iodine?
The Supplement Facts show no iodine line among the 22 vitamin and mineral lines, and iodine is not among the 18 blend names. The label prints nothing about iodine, so do not count on it from this product.
How much molybdenum is in Reviralis?
The label prints molybdenum as an amino acid chelate, 10 mcg per two capsules, or 22% of the Daily Value. The adult need is 45 mcg and the upper limit is 2,000 mcg.
Is molybdenum a necessary mineral?
Yes, adults need 45 mcg a day for enzymes that process sulfur compounds. Deficiency is almost never seen, since food supplies it. A label line of 10 mcg is a small top-up.
Can multivitamins affect thyroid tests?
Biotin can distort some thyroid blood tests. Reviralis prints biotin 3 mcg, which is tiny, but tell the lab about any biotin product before a test. Ask your clinician about timing.
