Allergy Advice:

Although rigorous precautions are taken to prevent any cross-contamination, this product is manufactured in a facility that handles allergy-based materials.

Cautions:

Always consult your health practitioner before taking nutritional supplements, especially if you are taking medication or are under medical supervision.

Not recommended for children, pregnant or lactating women.

Also people with stomach ulcers, and those with liver disease should consider avoiding ashwagandha.

People who take certain medications (including medications to suppress the immune system, lower blood sugar, lower blood pressure, and some sedatives) should talk to their doctor before taking ashwagandha.

People taking thyroid hormones should also talk to their doctor about taking ashwagandha because blood levels of thyroid hormones may be affected.

Side Effects:

Side effects of ashwagandha may include

• diarrhea
• headache
• sedation
• nausea
• Liver problems may also occur.

Ashwagandha may increase  testosterone levels.

Contraindications:

Ashwagandha might lower blood sugar levels and thus make it unsafe to use with antihyperglycemic (glucose-lowering) medications (by lowering blood sugar too much).

Because of its potential to lower blood pressure, ashwagandha might not be safe in people who take medications to treat high blood pressure.

Ashwagandha, because it seems to make the immune system more active, could also interfere with medications that suppress the immune system. Examples of these medications include cyclosporine, mycophenolate, tacrolimus, prednisone, and corticosteroids.

Ashwagandha might make people drowsy or sleepy. So combining sedative-hypnotic medications (used to help with sleep) with ashwagandha might make people too sleepy. Examples of these sedatives are zoldipem,eszoplicone,clonazepam, quetiapine, and lorazepam.

Ashwagandha may increase thyroid hormone levels, so doctors carefully monitor thyroid function by ordering blood tests for anyone who takes thyroid hormones and ashwagandha at the same time.

You should not take supplements as a substitute for a varied balanced diet or healthy lifestyle.

Storage:

For best before and batch number see base. Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children.

Dosage:

A reasonable dose to give your dog or cat, if you want to try Ashwagandha, would be approximately 15 mg per 1kg of weight.

For example; a 33kg dog could be given one 500mg capsule. It is always best to err on the side of caution, until such point you are sure your furry friend can tolerate Ashwagandha.

For ease of use, the capsules can be opened and the powder, once weighed, can easily distributed into their food.

Please Note: Dosage instructions on the bottle are for human use. Please use the dosage instructions above for use with dogs and cats.

Side Effects:

Although tolerated in the majority of people, some side effects of Ashwagandha in dogs and cats can include:

• Vomiting
• Tummy discomfort
• Nausea
• Liver damage

Regardless, if your dog does not seem to tolerate it, or you feel something is wrong, get in touch with a vet straight away as some dogs may be intolerant to it.

Contraindications:

Ashwagandha is contraindicated in dogs with certain disorders. One of these is autoimmune disease, or certain groups such as those who are pregnant, have stomach issues or any form of cancer.

It can also interact with some medications taken for diabetes and thyroid. Always consult with a vet prior to giving your dog Ashwagandha if they have any medical disorders.

If you have any doubt about administering nutritional supplements to your pet, specially if they have never had them before, always consult with a veterinary professional beforehand.
