ADVICE TO THE PATIENT

- If symptoms continue or worsen during the use of harpagophyte, it is recommended to consult your doctor or pharmacist.

- Talk to your doctor and/or pharmacist if joint pain is accompanied by joint inflammation, redness or fever.



CONTRAINDICATIONS

- Hypersensitivity to harpagophyte or any component of the medicine.



EFFECTS ON DRIVING

No studies have been carried out, although its composition does not appear to affect the ability to drive and use machinery.



PREGNANCY

There are some communications that alert you to the possible oxytocyc effect of harpagophyte, although there is no data to confirm this claim. Adequate and well-controlled human studies are not available, so harpagophyte should not be used except in situations where there are no safer therapeutic alternatives, the benefits outweigh the potential risks.


INDICATIONS

- [OSTEOMUSCULAR PAIN]. Treatment of mild joint pains.


INTERACTIONS

No drug interactions have been reported.


BREAST FEEDING

It is not known whether the components of harpagophyte are excreted in human milk, and the possible effects that this excretion could have on the infant. It is advisable to avoid the use of harpagophyte during lactation, and if necessary, to discontinue breastfeeding.


CHILDREN

"Harpagofito Arkopharma, Harpagomed"

Safety and efficacy in children and adolescents < 18 years have not been evaluated, so it is recommended to avoid its use.



RULES FOR PROPER ADMINISTRATION

Swallow whole with enough fluid.

Administration with food: although they do not appear to affect the absorption of harpagophyte, it is advised to take it preferably with meals to improve digestive tolerability.



DOSAGE

"Nice Arkopharma"

- Adults: 1 capsule, 3 times a day, with the main meals.

- Children and adolescents < 18 years: not recommended.

- Elderly: no specific dosage recommendations have been made.

Duration of treatment: 1 month.

Forgetting doses: administer the missed dose as soon as possible, unless there is little time to go until the next dose. Administer the next dose at the usual time. Do not double the next dose.



PRECAUTIONS

- [PEPTICA ULCER]. There are no communications of peptic ulcer and/or gastric hemorrhage after using harpagophyte, although some authors claim that it could cause gastric damage. Therefore, extreme caution is advised in patients who have previously had peptic ulcers. If symptoms of gastroduodenal erosion such as nausea, vomiting, gastric hyperacidity or pain in the epigastric area are observed, it is recommended to discontinue administration of harpagophyte.

- Cardiovascular diseases, as well as [ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION] or [HIPOTENSION]. Some authors warn of the risk of cardioactive effects in harpagophyte, which could affect blood pressure. Therefore it is advised to use it carefully in these patients.

- [COLELITIASIS]. Stimulation of bile production by the harpagophyte may favor its elimination, although in certain patients where the size of the stones is large enough, it could precipitate an obstruction of the bile ducts. In patients with gallstones or history of gallstones, extreme precautions are advised. If these patients develop symptoms of biliary obstruction, discontinuation of treatment is recommended.

- Joint inflammation. If joint pain is accompanied by swelling in the joint, redness or fever, it is recommended to consult your doctor because more significant injuries may be masked.



ADVERSE REACTIONS

In general harpagophyte is well tolerated, and usually only results in mild adverse reactions during use, especially in prolonged treatments. Its mechanism of action is not well established, but it does not seem very likely to result in adverse reactions associated with NSAIDs. No serious adverse reactions were described in clinical trials, and only one patient discontinued treatment as a result of tachycardia, while another experienced symptoms such as headache, tinnitus, anorexia and taste disturbance.

- Digestives: There are communications of mild gastrointestinal disorders, with [NAUSEAS] and [VOMITOS], [ABDOMINAL PAIN] and [DIARREA] (8.1%) in less than 10% of patients who were receiving harpagophyte for four weeks for the treatment of joint pains.

- Neurological/psychological: [CEFALEA] and [MAREO].

- Allergic/dermatological: [HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS] of a dermatological nature. There is a communication from a woman who experienced an allergic reaction with [RINITIS] and [CONJUNTIVITIS] following continued professional exposure to harpagophyte.



OVERDOSE

Symptoms: No cases of overdose have been reported.

Treatment: In case of overdose it is advised to discontinue administration of the harpagophyte, and to proceed with symptomatic treatment.
