tablets for body pain have anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects

The frequency of adverse reactions (AR) is given as the following classification: very often (≥1/10), often (from ≥1/100 to <1/10), infrequently (from ≥1/1000 to <1/100), rarely (from ≥1/10,000 to < 1/1000), very rare (<1/10,000), frequency unknown (cannot be estimated based on available data).

The most frequently observed adverse reactions were from the gastrointestinal tract. It is possible to develop a peptic ulcer, gastric perforation or gastrointestinal bleeding, sometimes fatal, especially in elderly patients (see section “Special Instructions”).

Within each group, HPs are listed in descending order of severity.

Blood and lymphatic system disorders:

Uncommon: Eosinophilia, granulocytopenia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia.

Nervous system disorders:

often: headache, vertigo, dizziness, drowsiness;

infrequently: depression, sleep disturbance, impaired concentration, insomnia, malaise.

Visual disturbances:

common: visual impairment.

Hearing and labyrinth disorders:

often : tinnitus, hearing impairment;

Uncommon: hearing loss.

Cardiac disorders:

common: swelling, palpitations;

Uncommon: congestive heart failure.

Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders:

often : shortness of breath;

infrequently : eosinophilic pneumonia.

Gastrointestinal disorders:

often: constipation, abdominal pain, dyspepsia, nausea, diarrhoea, stomatitis, flatulence;

infrequently: gastrointestinal bleeding and / or gastric perforation, hematemesis, melena, vomiting;

very rare : relapse or worsening of ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease;

frequency unknown : gastritis.

Liver and biliary tract disorders:

infrequently: increased activity of “liver” enzymes, jaundice.

Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders:

often : pruritus, skin rash, ecchymosis, purpura;

infrequently : alopecia, photodermatosis;

very rare : bullous reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis.

Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders:

infrequently : myalgia and muscle weakness.

Renal and urinary tract disorders:

Uncommon: glomerulonephritis, hematuria, interstitial nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, renal failure, renal papillary necrosis.

General disorders and administration site disorders:

often : thirst, increased sweating;

infrequently : hypersensitivity reactions, menstrual disorders, hyperthermia (chills and fever).

During therapy with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, edema and symptoms of heart failure, increased blood pressure were reported.

Clinical studies and epidemiological data suggest that the use of certain non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (especially high doses for long-term therapy) may be associated with a slight increase in the risk of arterial thrombosis (eg, myocardial infarction or stroke).

Undesirable effects, the causal relationship of which has not been established with the use of naproxen

Blood and lymphatic system disorders: aplastic anemia, hemolytic anemia.

Nervous system disorders: aseptic meningitis, cognitive dysfunction.

Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: erythema multiforme; photosensitivity reactions like cutaneous porphyria tarda and epidermolysis bullosa; hives.

Mirolza is a dietary supplement containing an additional source of amino acids, vitamins, microelements and other biologically active substances. It helps to increase the ability to fertilize, sexual desire and improve the quality of life in women.

Anchor terrestris herb extract

Anchor terrestris herb extract (Tribulus terrestris L. ) – contains steroidal saponins metabolized in the body to dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which is converted into steroid sex hormones in the female body. Dehydroepiandrosterone has a positive effect on immunity, cell membrane integrity, hemoglobin and lipid profile, helps to lower blood glucose levels, improves physical condition and increases sexual activity by stimulating androgen receptors in the brain, promotes muscle formation and increases their tone, bones, moisturizing the skin and mucous surfaces, which can delay the onset of menopause and reduce the intensity of unpleasant symptoms of this period.

L-carnitine fumarate

L-carnitine fumarate is a formula that combines L-carnitine with fumaric acid found in mosses and mushrooms. It promotes better absorption of L-carnitine and acts as an intermediary in the Krebs cycle – a key energy production process. L-carnitine transports fatty acids to the mitochondria, where they are converted into energy. Also, fumarate has the ability to activate an antioxidant factor that protects mitochondria from the damaging effects of free radical compounds. Other forms of L-carnitine lack this property.

Acetyl-L-Carnitine

Acetyl-L-Carnitine plays a key role in the mitochondrial oxidation of long chain fatty acids for cellular energy production and protects cell membranes and DNA from damage caused by free oxygen radicals. Acetyl-L-carnitine plays a key role in the mitochondrial oxidation of long chain fatty acids for cellular energy production, protects cell membranes and DNA from damage caused by free oxygen radicals, and prevents protein oxidation. The main difference between acetyl-L-carnitine and other forms of carnitine is the presence of an acetyl molecule. Thanks to it, acetyl-L-carnitine is absorbed faster and easier, penetrates well into tissues and has greater biological activity.

L-Arginine

L-Arginine is an amino acid found in proteins that supports the immune system and regulates vascular tone to control blood flow. In women, L-arginine has a positive effect on blood vessels and improves the intensity of blood circulation in the pelvic organs, improving the blood supply to the uterus and ovaries and improving their work. Helps to increase the thickness of the endometrium, which is very important for women who have undergone oophorectomy, who have had spontaneous or medical abortions. L-arginine is a powerful activator of the body’s antioxidant defenses, which reduces the negative effects of free radicals and helps reduce the intensity of chronic inflammatory processes and protect maturing eggs from damage. L-arginine increases the body’s ability to regenerate tissues.

L-Glutathione

L-Glutathione is a vital protective antioxidant of intracellular and extracellular defenses that helps reduce the negative effects of free radicals, the intensity of chronic inflammation and protect maturing eggs from damage.

Coenzyme Q10

Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is a central component of metabolic processes associated with the supply of energy to the body. Coenzyme Q10 plays an important role in the absorption of carnitine by the body, as it regulates the process of acetylation in the body. Coenzyme Q10 is a powerful activator of the body’s antioxidant defense, which reduces the negative effects of free radicals and helps reduce the intensity of chronic inflammatory processes, protect maturing eggs from damage.

Zinc picolinate

Zinc picolinate is the most accessible biological form of a trace element responsible for the proper functioning of internal organs and their systems. The combination of zinc and picolinic acid complement each other and form an easily digestible formula that guarantees maximum effectiveness of the drug. In women, zinc is actively involved in the division of the egg, and also contributes to the regulation of biochemical processes that ensure the transition of the egg to the embryo.

Folic acid

Vitamin B9 (folic acid) is important for DNA generation, which makes it possible to bear and give birth to a healthy child. Vitamin B9 intake should be started even when planning pregnancy, since a high need for it occurs already in the first weeks of embryo formation, when the neural tube is formed.

Selenium

Selenium is a trace element that plays a critical role in the function of many important enzymes associated with the mechanism of antioxidant action. Selenium activity increases the availability of glutathione. In women, selenium contributes to the normal development of the follicles in the later stages and the creation of a favorable environment for ovulation.

Vitamin B5

Vitamin B5 is a water-soluble vitamin used to make coenzyme A (CoA), a chemical compound that helps enzymes create and break down fatty acids and perform other metabolic functions that regulate how fat is made.

Consumption recommendations: as an additional source of amino acids, vitamins, trace elements and other biologically active substances. Helps to increase the ability to fertilize, sexual desire and improve the quality of sexual life in women.
