Safety & Side Effects

الآثار الجانبية المُبلّغ عنها

  • ⚠ Generally very well-tolerated
  • ⚠ Rare allergic reactions to mold-derived enzyme (Aspergillus source)
  • ⚠ May cause mild GI discomfort in rare cases

التفاعلات المعروفة

  • ● Acarbose (alpha-galactosidase may counteract the blood sugar-lowering mechanism of acarbose; contraindicated for concurrent use)
  • ● Miglitol (similar mechanism conflict as acarbose)

الحد الأقصى المسموح به: No established upper limit; adjust per meal as needed
