Cautions and Contraindications
* Herbal DRX is an excellent formula to eliminate accumulation of water and treat edema. However, in addition to elimination of excessive water, diuretic herbs may lead to excretion of some electrolytes. Therefore, if the formula is to be taken for more than two weeks, it is important to receive supplementation of additional electrolytes to prevent imbalance. Symptoms of electrolyte imbalance include muscle spasms and cramps. Common supplements include bananas, orange juice, multivitamins and minerals, and sports drinks.
* Concurrent use of diuretic herbs and diuretic drugs is not recommended as they have the same functions to eliminate water and electrolytes. Concurrent use may contribute to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.
* This formula is contraindicated during pregnancy.
