Pharmacist’s advice

The maintenance and intensive schedules are separate patterns of use. Do not combine them or extend the six-to-eight-tablet schedule independently.

Echinacea is not suitable for everyone. Additional caution is required in autoimmune disease, after transplantation and during treatment with corticosteroids, biological medicines or other immunosuppressants.

People sensitive to ragweed, chamomile or related plants may also react to echinacea. Stop use immediately if rash, swelling or breathing difficulty develops.

Adequate sleep, protein, fruit, vegetables, physical activity and avoiding smoking remain fundamental for normal immune function.

Frequent or unusually severe infections require medical assessment rather than repeated intensive supplementation.
