Frequently Asked Questions Atrosan Devil's Claw tablets
What is Atrosan Devil's Claw tablets? Atrosan Devil’s Claw tablets is a traditional herbal medicinal product used for the relief of backache, rheumatic or muscular pain, and general aches and pains in the muscles and joints, exclusively based upon long-standing use as a traditional remedy. Always read the leaflet. How long can I take Atrosan? If the codition worsens or persists for more than 8 weeks, you should consult a doctor. What is the dosage? Adults and elderly: Take one tablet twice daily immediately after food. The dose can be increased to two tablets twice daily if relief is not obtained after 3 to 5 days. Not for use in children or those under 18. The tablets are quite big. Can I cut them in half? It has been found in studies that digestive enzymes in the stomach can destroy certain active ingredients in Devil’s Claw. In order to preserve these active ingredients we have coated the tablets with a special film, which prevents them from being broken down in the stomach. If you cut the tablets you expose the inner ingredients and this will allow them to break down in the stomach, making them less effective. What does 'based on long-standing use as a traditional remedy' mean? Many herbs have been used for a long period of years to relieve certain conditions. This 'traditional use' can now be reflected on the packaging of products that have achieved registration under the Traditional Herbal Medicines Directive. Each claim derives from the documented long term medicinal use of the herb as shown in respected reference sources such as pharmacopoeias, publications by experts in herbal medicine, and EU member state approved lists of herbs and their uses, rather than being based on the results of clinical trials. Where can I get further information from? Contact our helpline (0845 608 5858) or email your question to us (helpline@avogel.co.uk). Alternatively, you may wish to read the in-pack leaflet We will endeavour to give the best advice based on the information provided. However, it is always advisable to have a face-to-face consultation with a doctor or health care practitioner to obtain a diagnosis of any health matter which is concerning you. 1178 |
