HgSe is non-toxic so long as it is not ingested due to its insolubility. Toxic ] fumes can be evolved on exposure to acids. HgSe is a relatively stable compound which might mean that it is less toxic than elemental mercury or many organometallic mercury compounds. Selenium's ability to complex with mercury has been proposed as a reason for the lack of mercury toxicity in deep sea fish despite high mercury levels.<ref>^ Watanabe C (2002). "Modification of mercury toxicity by selenium: practical importance?" (Free full text). The Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine 196 (2): 71–7. doi:10.1620/tjem.196.71. PMID 12498318.</ref>

HgSe is forms large insoluble clusters with proteins during digestion, and a very precise co-administration of selenium during mercury ingestion has shown to reduce the resulting intoxication. The effect is too finicky for any practical use, but selenium's ability to complex mercury has been proposed to explain why relatively high mercury levels do not intoxicate deep-sea fish.<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Watanabe | first1 = C. | title = Modification of Mercury Toxicity by Selenium: Practical Importance? | doi = 10.1620/tjem.196.71 | journal = The Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine | volume = 196 | issue = 2 | pages = 71–77 | year = 2002 | pmid = 12498318| doi-access = free }}</ref>
