WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Arnica: May cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, especially if there is a history of ragweed allergies.
Bromelain: May increase the risk of bleeding in individuals taking anticoagulants or antiplatelet medications. Discontinue use two weeks before surgery.

Drug Interactions:
The use of anticoagulants, such as warfarin or aspirin, may increase the risk of bleeding when combined with Bromelain. High doses of zinc can interfere with the absorption of iron when taken alongside iron supplements. Additionally, citrus bioflavonoids have the potential to enhance the effects of blood pressure-lowering medications.
Adverse Reactions:
Adverse reactions associated with the use of Bruising Tablets may include mild gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, or allergic reactions such as skin rash. In rare cases, more serious reactions, such as prolonged bleeding or hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., difficulty breathing, swelling), may occur. If you experience any serious adverse effects, discontinue use and seek medical attention immediately.
OVERDOSE:
In the event of overdose, seek medical attention immediately. Symptoms of overdose may include gastrointestinal upset, nausea, or an increased risk of bleeding due to excess Bromelain.
