Contraindications
This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients. lnflamex™ is contraindicated in patients with gastrointestinal conditions, such as gastric ulcers or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), as they may experience irritation or worsening of symptoms due to the presence of ingredients like garlic and black pepper. Patients with blood clotting disorders or who are on anticoagulant therapy should use caution when consuming high doses of ingredients like garlic, turmeric, and black pepper, as they may have mild blood-thinning effects.
Warnings
Tell your doctor if you have: kidney problems, thyroid disease. This medication should be used as directed during pregnancy or while breast-feeding. Consult your doctor. Administration of folate alone is improper therapy for pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias in which vitamin B12 is deficient.
Precautions:
Folate in doses above 0.1 mg daily may obscure pernicious anemia, in that hematologic remission can occur while neurological manifestations remain progressive. There is a potential danger in administering folate to patients with undiagnosed anemia since folate may obscure the diagnosis of pernicious anemia by alleviating the hematologic manifestations of the disease while allowing the neurologic complications to progress. This may result in severe nervous system damage before the correct diagnosis is made. The patient's medical conditions and consumption of other drugs, herbs, and/or supplements should be considered.
Pregnancy and Lactation:
Not recommended for use during pregnancy or lactation without consulting with a healthcare professional.
For use on the order of a licensed healthcare practitioner.

Adverse Reactions/Side Effects
Allergic reactions to any of the ingredients can occur, ranging from mild skin irritation to severe anaphylaxis in rare cases. Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folate.
Niacinamide, a form of niacin, may cause flushing, itching, and tingling sensations in some individuals, particularly when taken in higher doses. This effect is usually harmless but can be uncomfortable. Some individuals may experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, bloating, or diarrhea, especially when consuming higher doses of certain ingredients like garlic and black pepper. Certain ingredients in the product, such as garlic and black pepper, may interact with medications. Garlic may potentiate the effects of anticoagulant medications, while black pepper may affect the metabolism of certain drugs.
