Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Viralex children's. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. Doses of astragalus up to 60 grams daily for up to 4 months have been used without reported adverse effects (32920,33038,95909). ...when used intravenously. Infusion of doses up to 80 grams daily for up to 4 months under the supervision of a medical professional have been used with apparent safety (32811,32812,32828,95909). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of astragalus when used topically.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
There is insufficient reliable information in humans.
However, astragaloside, a constituent of astragalus, has maternal and fetal toxic effects in animals (32881). Avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when olive fruit is used orally and appropriately in amounts commonly found in foods.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when olive leaf extract is used orally and appropriately. Olive leaf extract providing 51-100 mg oleuropein daily has been used with apparent safety for 6-8 weeks (92245,92247,101860). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of olive fruit extract when used in amounts greater than those found in foods.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; stick with amounts commonly found in foods.
POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when used orally. The safety of pau d'arco in typical doses is unclear; however, serious toxicities have been found with high doses of the lapachol constituent (91939). In patients with cancer, doses of lapachol above 1.5 grams daily were associated with significant gastrointestinal toxicities and an increased risk of bleeding (91939). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of pau d'arco when used topically.
PREGNANCY: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when used orally in typical doses.
Animal studies have found that lapachol, a constituent of pau d'arco, has teratogenic and abortifacient effects (68314,68315); avoid using. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of pau d'arco when used topically in pregnancy; avoid using.
LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately for up to 15 months (155,4347,4350,4351,4352,4353,4354,7140,7646,7652),(12763,14334,14379,14380,14381,72194,72198).
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately in children of most ages (4347,4356,14334,72145,92806,98734,103451,107603,107605,111102)(111103).
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of Saccharomyces boulardii in preterm infants with a birth weight under 1000 grams. Cases of bacteremia have occurred rarely in preterm infants given other probiotics (102416,111610,111612,111613,111850,111852,111853). The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning about cases of serious infections caused by probiotics reported in very preterm or very low birth weight infants under 1000 grams (111610). Similarly, the American Academy of Pediatrics does not support the routine administration of probiotics to these infants due to conflicting data on safety and efficacy (111608).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. Zinc is safe in amounts that do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 40 mg daily (7135). ...when used topically and appropriately (2688,6538,6539,7135,8623,11051,111291).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately in doses higher than the tolerable upper intake level (UL). Because the UL of zinc is based on regular daily intake, short-term excursions above 40 mg daily are not likely to be harmful. In fact, there is some evidence that doses of elemental zinc as high as 80 mg daily in combination with copper 2 mg can be used safely for approximately 6 years without significant adverse effects (7303,8622,92212). However, there is some concern that doses higher than the UL of 40 mg daily might decrease copper absorption and result in anemia (7135).
POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when used intranasally. Case reports and animal research suggest that intranasal zinc might cause permanent anosmia or loss of sense of smell (11155,11156,11703,11704,11705,11706,11707,16800,16801,17083). Several hundred reports of anosmia have been submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the manufacturer of some intranasal zinc products (Zicam) (16800,16801). Advise patients not to use intranasal zinc products.
LIKELY UNSAFE ...when taken orally in excessive amounts. Ingestion of 10-30 grams of zinc sulfate can be lethal in adults (7135). Chronic intake of 450-1600 mg daily can cause multiple forms of anemia, copper deficiency, and myeloneuropathies (7135,17092,17093,112473). This has been reported with use of zinc-containing denture adhesives in amounts exceeding the labeled directions, such as several times a day for several years (17092,17093). Advise patients to follow the label directions on denture adhesives that contain zinc.
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately (7135).
Zinc is safe in amounts that do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level (UL). The UL for children is based on age: 4 mg daily for 0-6 months, 5 mg daily for 7-12 months, 7 mg daily for 1-3 years, 12 mg daily for 4-8 years, 23 mg daily for 9-13 years, and 34 mg daily for 14-18 years (7135,97140).
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when used orally in high doses.
Taking amounts greater than the UL can cause sideroblastic anemia and copper deficiency (7135). ...when used topically on damaged skin. An infant treated with 10% zinc oxide ointment for severe diaper rash with perianal erosions developed hyperzincemia. Absorption seemed to occur mainly via the erosions; plasma levels dropped after the erosions healed despite continued use of the ointment (106905).
PREGNANCY: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
Zinc is safe in amounts that do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 34 mg daily during pregnancy in those 14-18 years of age and 40 mg daily in those 19-50 years of age (7135).
PREGNANCY: LIKELY UNSAFE
when used orally in doses exceeding the UL (7135).
LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
Zinc is safe in amounts that do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 34 mg daily during lactation in those 14-18 years of age, and 40 mg daily for those 19-50 years of age (7135).
LACTATION: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when used orally in doses exceeding the UL.
Higher doses can cause zinc-induced copper deficiency in nursing infants (7135).
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Viralex children's. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Theoretically, taking astragalus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
 Details
|
Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with cyclophosphamide therapy.
Details
|
Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
Details
|
Theoretically, astragalus might increase levels and adverse effects of lithium.
Details
Animal research suggests that astragalus has diuretic properties (15103). Theoretically, due to this diuretic effect, astragalus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
|
Theoretically, pau d'arco might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Details
In vitro research shows that pau d'arco reduces platelet aggregation and may interfere with vitamin K (18057,68319). One clinical study shows that taking the lapachol constituent of pau d'arco in doses above 1.5 grams daily increases the risk of bleeding (91939). The effects of whole pau d'arco or pau d'arco extract in humans are unclear.
|
Theoretically, taking antifungals with Saccharomyces boulardii might decrease the effectiveness of Saccharomyces boulardii.
Details
S. boulardii is a live yeast. Therefore, simultaneously taking antifungals might kill a significant number of the organisms (4363).
|
Amiloride can modestly reduce zinc excretion and increase zinc levels.
Details
Clinical research shows that amiloride can reduce urinary zinc excretion, especially at doses of 10 mg per day or more. This zinc-sparing effect can help to counteract zinc losses caused by thiazide diuretics, but it is unlikely to cause zinc toxicity at usual amiloride doses (830,11626,11627,11634). The other potassium-sparing diuretics, spironolactone (Aldactone) and triamterene (Dyrenium), do not seem to have a zinc-sparing effect.
|
Zinc modestly reduces levels of atazanavir, although this effect does not seem to be clinically significant.
Details
Clinical research shows that zinc might decrease serum atazanavir levels by chelating with atazanavir in the gut and preventing its absorption (93578). Although a single dose of zinc sulfate (Solvazinc tablets) 125 mg orally does not affect atazanavir concentrations in patients being treated with atazanavir/ritonavir, co-administration of zinc sulfate 125 mg daily for 2 weeks reduces plasma levels of atazanavir by about 22% in these patients. However, despite this decrease, atazanavir levels still remain at high enough concentrations for the prevention of HIV virus replication (90216).
|
Zinc might decrease cephalexin levels by chelating with cephalexin in the gut and preventing its absorption.
Details
A pharmacokinetic study shows that zinc sulfate 250 mg taken concomitantly with cephalexin 500 mg decreases peak levels of cephalexin by 31% and reduces the exposure to cephalexin by 27%. Also, taking zinc sulfate 3 hours before cephalexin decreases peak levels of cephalexin by 11% and reduces the exposure to cephalexin by 18%. By decreasing cephalexin levels, zinc might increase the risk of treatment failure. This effect does not occur when zinc is taken 3 hours after the cephalexin dose (94163). To avoid an interaction, advise patients take zinc sulfate 3 hours after taking cephalexin.
|
Theoretically, zinc might interfere with the therapeutic effects of cisplatin.
Details
Animal research suggests that zinc stimulates tumor cell production of the protein metallothionein, which binds and inactivates cisplatin (11624,11625). It is not known whether zinc supplements or high dietary zinc intake can cause clinically significant interference with cisplatin therapy. Cisplatin might also increase zinc excretion.
|
Theoretically, taking zinc along with integrase inhibitors might decrease the levels and clinical effects of these drugs.
Details
|
Zinc might reduce the levels and clinical effects of penicillamine.
Details
By forming an insoluble complex with penicillamine, zinc interferes with penicillamine absorption and activity. Zinc supplements reduce the efficacy of low-dose penicillamine (0.5-1 gram/day), but do not seem to affect higher doses (1-2.75 gram/day), provided dosing times are separated (2678,4534,11605). Advise patients to take zinc and penicillamine at least 2 hours apart.
|
Zinc can decrease the levels and clinical effects of quinolones antibiotics.
Details
|
Zinc modestly reduces levels of ritonavir.
Details
Clinical research shows that zinc might reduce serum ritonavir levels by chelating with ritonavir in the gut and preventing its absorption (93578). In patients with HIV, ritonavir is taken with atazanavir to prevent the metabolism and increase the effects of atazanavir. A pharmacokinetic study shows that, in patients being treated with atazanavir/ritonavir, co-administration of zinc sulfate (Solvazinc tablets) 125 mg as a single dose or as multiple daily doses for 2 weeks reduces plasma levels of ritonavir by about 16% (90216). However, atazanavir levels still remains high enough to prevent HIV virus replication. Therefore, the decrease in ritonavir levels is not likely to be clinically significant.
|
Zinc might reduce levels of tetracycline antibiotics.
Details
Tetracyclines form complexes with zinc in the gastrointestinal tract, which can reduce absorption of both the tetracycline and zinc when taken at the same time (3046,4945). Taking zinc sulfate 200 mg with tetracycline reduces absorption of the antibiotic by 30% to 40% (11615). Demeclocycline and minocycline cause a similar interaction (4945). However, doxycycline does not seem to interact significantly with zinc (11615). Advise patients to take tetracyclines at least 2 hours before, or 4-6 hours after, zinc supplements to avoid any interactions.

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Viralex children's. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...Orally and intravenously, astragalus root seems to be well tolerated.
Topically, no adverse effects have been reported. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: A case report raises concerns about liver and kidney cysts with astragalus use.
Cardiovascular ...Orally, astragalus has reportedly been associated with lacunar angina in one clinical trial. However, this may not have been caused by astragalus (17355). In addition, rapid intravenous administration of astragalus has resulted in temporary palpitations (32812).
Dermatologic ...Intravenously, astragalus may cause rash, eczema, and pruritus (33034).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, astragalus has reportedly been associated with enterocolitis and nausea in one clinical trial. However, these effects may not have been caused by astragalus (17355).
Genitourinary ...Orally, astragalus has reportedly been associated with vulvitis in one clinical trial. However, this effect may not have been caused by astragalus (17355).
Hepatic ...A case of high serum CA19-9 levels and small liver and kidney cysts has been reported for a 38-year-old woman who drank astragalus tea daily for one month. Levels returned to normal after one month, and cysts disappeared after ten months. Both symptoms returned following a resumption of astragalus use. The authors state that astragalus was the likely cause given the temporal relationship (90658).
Neurologic/CNS ...Rapid intravenous administration of astragalus has resulted in temporary dizziness (32812).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Orally, astragalus has reportedly been associated with rhinosinusitis and pharyngitis in one clinical trial. However, these effects may not have been caused by astragalus (17355).
Renal ...A case of high serum CA19-9 levels and small liver and kidney cysts has been reported for a 38-year-old woman who drank astragalus tea daily for one month. Levels returned to normal after one month, and cysts disappeared after ten months. Both symptoms returned following a resumption of astragalus use. The authors state that astragalus was the likely cause given the temporal relationship (90658).
General
...Orally, olive fruit is well tolerated when used in typical food amounts.
Olive leaf extract seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Headache and stomach discomfort.
Dermatologic ...Orally, one patient in one clinical trial reported bad skin and acne after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported stomach ache after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported headache after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Psychiatric ...In one case report, a 67-year-old female experienced irritability, anger, a lack of control, and feelings of sadness and negativity after consuming a multi-ingredient product containing olive leaf extract 5 grams, horseradish root, and eyebright daily for 38 days. All psychiatric symptoms disappeared within days of stopping the combined product. It is hypothesized that the hydroxytyrosol component of olive leaf extract contributed to these symptoms due to its chemical similarity to dopamine; however, it is not clear if these symptoms were due to the olive leaf extract or to the other ingredients (96245).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Olive tree pollen can cause seasonal respiratory allergy (1543).
General ...A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes with pau d'arco has not been conducted. However, taking the lapachol constituent of pau d'arco in doses above 1.5 grams daily is regarded as unsafe.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, the lapachol constituent of pau d'arco, taken in doses above 1. 5 grams daily, may cause severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea (91939).
Hematologic ...Orally, the lapachol constituent of pau d'arco, taken in doses above 1. 5 grams daily, may cause anemia and increased risk of bleeding (91939).
Immunologic ...Occupational exposure to sawdust from the pau d'arco tree and related species may cause asthma and dermatitis. The fresh sawdust can produce erythema and papules which progress to a severe weeping and crusting dermatitis (92184).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, the lapachol constituent of pau d'arco, taken in doses above 1. 5 grams daily, may cause dizziness (91939).
General
...Orally, Saccharomyces boulardii is generally well tolerated.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: There is concern that Saccharomyces boulardii may cause fungemia in certain patients.
Gastrointestinal ...Rarely, oral use of Saccharomyces boulardii has caused gastrointestinal complaints, such as abdominal cramps, flatulence, nausea, vomiting, and decreased appetite (98731,107608).
Immunologic
...Rarely, oral use of Saccharomyces boulardii has been associated with fungemia in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients (1247,4357,4358,4360,7329,14459,72121,72126,72142,92809,95357,95363)(96277,105171,107604,107607).
Numerous cases of Saccharomyces fungemia have been reported in critically ill intensive care unit (ICU) patients, particularly those with indwelling or central venous catheters, those receiving enteral feeding, or those receiving broad-spectrum antibiotics. Most infections occurred when packets of Saccharomyces were used or when Saccharomyces capsules were opened at the bedside (12776,12777,14459,95358,95360,95362,95363,105171). Admission to the ICU and extended length of stay increase the risk of developing Saccharomyces fungemia (107604). In a hospitalized 1-year-old patient with severe malnutrition and multiple invasive devices, Saccharomyces cerevisiae fungemia developed 2 days after receiving a probiotic containing S. boulardii 200 mg twice daily for 4 days (96277). In addition, there are two case reports of S. cerevisiae fungemia in hospitalized and intubated older patients with COVID-19 who had been given S. boulardii for diarrhea (105171).
The true incidence of fungemia is difficult to determine with S. boulardii. Most clinical laboratories are unable to differentiate between S. boulardii and S. cerevisiae, which might come from other sources (7353). In two case reports of patients in the ICU, there was a 100% alignment of fungal ribosomal DNA ITS sequences between the strains found in the blood of the infected patients and the strains of S. boulardii that had been administered (105171). In a large analysis of hospitalized patients, the incidence rate of Saccharomyces fungemia was 0.11% of those given S. boulardii and did not occur in patients not given this probiotic. Packets or capsules opened at a distance from the patient in the hospital were included in this analysis (107604).
Positive Saccharomyces cultures have also been obtained rarely from other sites, such as the abdominal region and the oral or respiratory tract (107607).
An elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate may occur when S. boulardii is used to treat Crohn disease (7646), but this effect may be a natural part of the disease process.
General
...Orally, zinc is well tolerated in doses below the tolerable upper intake level (UL), which is 40 mg daily for adults.
Topically, zinc is well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal cramps, diarrhea, metallic taste, nausea and vomiting (dose-related).
Topically: Burning, discoloration, itching, stinging, and tingling when applied to irritated tissue.
Intranasally: Bad taste, dry mouth, headache, irritation, reduced sense of smell.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: There have been cases of acute renal tubular necrosis, interstitial nephritis, neurological complications, severe vomiting, and sideroblastic anemia after zinc overdose.
Intranasally: There have been cases where intranasal zinc caused permanent loss of smell (anosmia).
Dermatologic
...Topically, zinc can cause burning, stinging, itching, and tingling when applied to inflamed tissue (6911,8623,87297).
Zinc oxide can be deposited in the submucosal tissue and cause dark discoloration of the skin. This can occur with prolonged topical application to intact skin, application to eroded or ulcerated skin, or penetrating traumatic exposure, and also parenteral administration (8618).
In rare cases, oral zinc has resulted in worsened acne (104056), skin sensitivity (6592), a leishmanial reaction with a macular rash that occurred on exposed parts of the body (86935), eczema (104055), systemic contact dermatitis (109457), and the development of severe seborrheic dermatitis (86946).
Gastrointestinal
...Orally, zinc can cause nausea (338,2663,2681,6592,6700,18216,106230,106233,106227), vomiting (2663,2681,6519,6592,96069,96074), a metallic or objectionable taste in the mouth (336,338,6700,11350,18216,106902), abdominal cramping (6592,96069), indigestion (87227), heartburn (96069), dry mouth (87533), and mouth irritation (336,2619).
When used orally in amounts above the tolerable upper intake level, zinc may cause irritation and corrosion of the gastrointestinal tract (331,86982,87315,106902), watery diarrhea (1352), epigastric pain (2663,2681), and severe vomiting (2663,2681).
Intranasally, zinc can cause bad taste, dry mouth, and burning and irritation of the throat (8628,8629).
When used topically as a mouth rinse, zinc may cause tooth staining (90206).
Hematologic ...There is concern that high daily doses of zinc, above the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 40 mg per day, might increase the risk of copper deficiency, potentially leading to anemia and leukopenia (7135,112473). To prevent copper deficiency, some clinicians give a small dose of copper when zinc is used in high doses, long-term (7303).
Hepatic ...There are two cases of liver deterioration in patients with Wilson disease following initiation of treatment with zinc 50-200 mg three times daily. The mechanism of action is not understood, and the event is extremely uncommon (86927,87470).
Immunologic ...Daily doses of 300 mg of supplemental zinc for 6 weeks appear to impair immune response (7135). A case of erythematosus-like syndrome, including symptoms such as fever, leg ulcers, and rash, has been reported following intake of effervescent tablets (Solvezink) containing zinc 45 mg (87506). In another case, severe neutropenia was reported after taking supplemental zinc 900 mg daily for an unknown duration (112473).
Neurologic/CNS
...Zinc-containing denture adhesives can cause toxicity if used more frequently than recommended for several years.
Case reports describe hyperzincemia, low copper levels, blood dyscrasias, and neurological problems, including sensory disturbances, numbness, tingling, limb weakness, and difficulty walking in patients applying denture adhesive multiple times daily for several years (17092,17093,90205,90233). Due to reports of zinc toxicity associated with use of excessive amounts of zinc-containing denture adhesives for several years, GlaxoSmithKline has reformulated Polygrip products to remove their zinc content (17092,17093).
Intranasally (8628) and orally (87534), zinc can cause headache. When used orally in amounts above the tolerable upper intake level (UL), zinc may cause central nervous system (CNS) symptoms including lethargy, fatigue, neuropathy, dizziness, and paresthesia (2663,2681,87369,87470,87533,87534,112473).
Oncologic ...There is concern that zinc might worsen prostate disease. For example, some preliminary evidence suggests that higher dietary zinc intake increases the risk for benign prostatic hyperplasia (6908). Epidemiological evidence suggests that taking more than 100 mg of supplemental zinc daily or taking supplemental zinc for 10 or more years doubles the risk of developing prostate cancer (10306). Another large-scale population study also suggests that men who take a multivitamin more than 7 times per week and who also take a separate zinc supplement have a significantly increased risk of prostate cancer-related mortality (15607). However, a large analysis of population research suggests that there is no association between zinc intake and the risk of prostate cancer (96075).
Pulmonary/Respiratory
...There are several hundred reports of complete loss of sense of smell (anosmia) that may be permanent with use of zinc gluconate nasal gel, such as Zicam (11306,11155,11707,16800,16801,17083,86999,87535).
Loss of sense of smell is thought to be dose related but has also been reported following a single application (11306,11155,11707,16800). Patients often report having sniffed deeply when applying the gel, then experiencing an immediate burning sensation, and noticing anosmia within 48 hours (17083). On June 16, 2009, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advised patients not to use a specific line of commercial zinc nasal products (Zicam) after receiving 130 reports of loss of smell (16800). The manufacturer of these products had also received several hundred reports of loss of smell related to its intranasal zinc products (16801). Zinc sulfate nasal spray was used unsuccessfully for polio prophylaxis before the polio vaccine was developed. It caused loss of smell and/or taste, which was sometimes permanent (11713). Animal studies suggest that zinc sulfate negatively affects smell, possibly by damaging the olfactory epithelium and neurons (11156,11703,11704,11705,11706). Zinc gluconate nasal spray has not been tested for safety in animals or humans. The clinical studies of intranasal zinc have not described anosmia as an adverse effect, but testing was not done to see if zinc use adversely affected sense of smell (6471,8628,8629,10247). Also, these clinical studies reported tingling or burning sensation in the nostril, dry nose, nose pain, and nosebleeds.
When used in amounts above the tolerable upper intake level (UL), zinc may cause flu-like symptoms including coughing (2663).
Renal ...In overdose, zinc can cause acute renal tubular necrosis and interstitial nephritis (331,1352,87338).
Other ...Occupational inhalation of zinc oxide fumes can cause metal fume fever with symptoms including fatigue, chills, fever, myalgias, cough, dyspnea, leukocytosis, thirst, metallic taste, and salivation (331).
