When can I expect an improvement?
There is no general answer to this question. The onset of action depends on the state of health and the constitution of the individual.

What are the possible side effects of PADMA 28?
Gastrointestinal disorders and cutaneous reactions or itching may very rarely occur. Isolated cases of palpitations and slight restlessness have been observed in predisposed individuals. If gastrointestinal symptoms appear, the capsules may be taken at mealtimes, with ample fluid (preferably boiled, lukewarm water). The dosage may possibly have to be reduced. If the capsules have been prescribed for you by your doctor, any adjustment of the dosage should be discussed with him/her.

May I take PADMA DIGESTIN and PADMA 28 at the same?
PADMA DIGESTIN is a formula with a very warming effect, while PADMA 28 has a cooling  effect. It is therefore recommended not to take these two products at the same time. For an optimal effect, an interval of 1 to 2 hours between ingestion of the two drugs and the following treatment regimen are therefore recommended:

PADMA 28:  Ingestion at any time of the day (e.g. in a dosage of 2x3 capsules);
in combination with PADMA DIGESTION: PADMA 28 should be taken after meals or 1 to 2 hours after taking PADMA DIGESTIN.
PADMA DIGESTIN:  Ideally, the main time for ingestion is in the moning, on an empty stomach, possibly with an additional dose in the evening.

As according to Tibetan medicine the digestive heat is greatest at midday, in long-term therapy PADMA DIGESTIN should not be taken at this time of day. In the event of acute symptoms requiring immediate treatment ingestion at any time day is naturally recommended.

May PADMA 28 be given to children?
