Dosage Regimen

The method of application and dosage regimen for a specific drug depend on its form of release and other factors. The optimal dosage regimen is determined by the doctor. It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen.

Administer orally to adults and children over 14 years of age. Take one teaspoon (4 g) twice daily with meals to improve absorption and minimize potential gastrointestinal discomfort.

The recommended treatment course is one month. Adhere strictly to the specified dosage and duration of use. This is not a medicine.

Adverse Reactions

Adverse reactions are uncommon and typically mild. Gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, epigastric discomfort, or diarrhea may occur, particularly if taken on an empty stomach.

Allergic reactions, including skin rash, itching, or urticaria, are possible in individuals with hypersensitivity to any product component. Discontinue use immediately if any adverse reactions manifest.

Drug Interactions

No specific drug interaction studies have been conducted. Exercise caution with concomitant use of anticoagulant or antiplatelet agents due to the potential, though theoretical, effects of vitamin E.

Monitor for signs of enhanced hypoglycemic effect when used with antidiabetic medications, as lipoic acid may influence glucose metabolism. Inform your healthcare provider of all concomitant products you are taking.

Contraindications

  • Hypersensitivity or individual intolerance to any component of the product, including pumpkin seed oil, sunflower oil, lipoic acid, or vitamin E.
  • Use is contraindicated during pregnancy due to the lack of safety data for the developing fetus.
  • Use is contraindicated during breastfeeding, as it is unknown if the components are excreted in human milk.

Consult a physician or qualified healthcare professional before initiating use.
