Cautions and Contraindications
* This formula is contraindicated during pregnancy and nursing.
* Patients with thyrotoxicosis or thyroid storm require emergency medical treatment. Warning signs and symptoms of thyroid storm or thyrotoxicosis include high fever, tachycardia, fidgeting, irritability, nausea, vomiting, obvious weight loss, profuse perspiration, delirium, and possible loss of unconsciousness.
* The etiology of Grave’s disease is the excessive stimulation by the immune system of the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormone. Therefore, during the acute inflammatory phase of the disease when the immune system is activated by the presence of pathogens, qi tonics that boost the immune system, such as Huang Qi (Radix Astragali) in this formula, should not be used since this herb may further stimulate the immune system. During this acute inflammatory phase, Gardenia Complex is a more suitable formula as it has herbs that clear heat and fire to suppress the immune system and reduce inflammation throughout the entire body.
