Pharmacokinetics

1. Absorption: The drug components are absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration. Absorption rate and completeness of absorption may depend on individual characteristics of the patient and properties of the drug.
2. Distribution: After absorption, the active ingredients are distributed in the organs and tissues of the body. Distribution may be different for different components of the drug.
3. Metabolism: Metabolism of active ingredients may occur in the liver or other body tissues. Some ingredients may be metabolized to biologically active metabolites.
4. Excretion: Metabolites and/or unmetabolized components of the drug may be excreted from the body through the kidneys (with urine) or through the intestines (with feces).
5. Half-life: Half-life is the time during which the plasma concentration of the drug is halved. The elimination half-life may vary for different components of the drug.

Dosing and administration

1. Pills:

   • It is usually recommended to chew the tablets under the tongue until they dissolve completely.
   • For adults, it is usually recommended to take one tablet 3-4 times a day.
   • For children, the dosage may be reduced depending on age and weight. It is recommended to consult a physician to determine the correct dose.

2. Drops:

Use Aflubina during pregnancy

Although it is often used as a homeopathic remedy, the safety of its use during pregnancy has not been sufficiently studied.

It is important to keep in mind that even natural remedies may have potential risks for pregnancy and fetal development. Therefore, it is recommended to consult your doctor or homeopathic practitioner before using Aflubin during pregnancy.

Contraindications

1. Gentian (Gentiana): May be contraindicated in known individual intolerance or allergic reactions to plants of the gentian family.
2. Aconitum: This ingredient contains toxic alkaloids and can be dangerous in large doses. Contraindicated in heart problems, hypertension, and in pregnancy and lactation.
3. Bryonia biloba (Bryonia): Has contraindications in peptic ulcer disease of the stomach and duodenum, as well as in the acute phase of gastrointestinal diseases.
4. Iron phosphate (Ferrum phosphoricum): Generally considered safe, but may be contraindicated in known iron allergies or with high levels of iron in the body.
5. Lactic acid (Acidum sarcolacticum): Contraindications may include hypersensitivity to this component, as well as serious metabolic disorders.

Side effects Aflubina

1. Allergic reactions: Some people may experience allergic reactions to the components of Aflubin. This may manifest as a skin rash, itching, redness or swelling.
2. Worseningof symptoms: In rare cases, the use of homeopathic remedies may temporarily worsen symptoms. This may be part of the healing process known as homeopathic aggravation, but if symptoms become too severe or last too long, a doctor should be consulted.
3. Unforeseen reactions: Although side effects of Aflubin are usually minimal, unexpected reactions to the drug can sometimes occur. Patients should monitor their condition and seek medical attention for unexpected symptoms.

Overdose

Since Aflubin is a homeopathic preparation, its dosages differ significantly from conventional medicines. However, even in homeopathic practice, it is believed that an overdose can have undesirable effects. Although homeopathic medicines are generally considered relatively safe because of their high dilution, caution should be exercised when using them.

Interactions with other drugs

1. Drugs that reduce blood clotting: Gentian and iron phosphate may have a slight effect on blood clotting. Combining Aflubin with anticoagulants such as warfarin or heparin may potentially increase the risk of bleeding.
2. Drugs affecting the cardiovascular system: Aconite contained in Aflubin may have some effect on cardiac activity. Therefore, combination with other drugs affecting the cardiovascular system, such as antihypertensives or antiarrhythmic drugs, requires careful monitoring.
3. Blood sugar-increasing drugs: Bryonia may affect blood glucose levels. The combination of Aflubin with drugs that increase blood sugar levels, such as glucocorticoids or some antidepressants, may require dose adjustment of the latter.
4. Central nervous system depressant drugs: Lactic acid may have a sedative effect. Therefore, combination with other central nervous system depressant drugs, such as sleeping pills or analgesics, may increase the sedative effect.
