Efectos secundarios reportados

- ⚠ If glycyrrhizin is NOT fully removed: hypertension, hypokalemia, edema (ensure true DGL product)
Interacciones conocidas
- ● Digoxin (if residual glycyrrhizin present, hypokalemia may increase digoxin toxicity)
- ● Diuretics (if residual glycyrrhizin, additive potassium loss)
- ● Corticosteroids (if residual glycyrrhizin, additive mineralocorticoid effects)
- ● Warfarin (theoretical interaction if residual glycyrrhizin affects metabolism)
