Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Nutricillin With Lactoferrin, Lysozyme And Nutrient Synergists. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. There are no reports of significant toxicity in multiple human trials (4901,4903,4904,4905,4906,4907,4908,4909,36980,36988) (36992,36995,36998,37000,92412,92413,92415,101799,111136,111138)(111139). However, bovine colostrum is derived from animals, and there is some concern about contamination with diseased animal parts (1825). So far, there are no reports of disease transmission to humans due to use of contaminated bovine colostrum.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used rectally and appropriately, short-term. Bovine colostrum has been used with apparent safety when administered as a 10% enema twice weekly for up to 4 weeks (9730). ...when used intravaginally and appropriately, short-term. Bovine colostrum has been used with apparent safety when administered vaginally as a tablet twice weekly for up to 6 months, as a 1% cream once daily for up to 15 days, or as a gel containing 2.3% bovine colostrum daily for 12 weeks (92424,98819,101794). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of bovine colostrum when used topically.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately, short-term.
Bovine colostrum has been used with apparent safety in children for 1-3 months (92420,95924,101797). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of long-term use of bovine colostrum in children.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally in amounts commonly found in foods. Lactoferrin has Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) status in the US (13312).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally in medicinal amounts. Bovine lactoferrin has been safely used at doses of up to 600 mg daily for up to 12 months (13313,13314,13315,13316,13320,13321,13322,13323,97786,104859,104860). Recombinant human lactoferrin has been used with apparent safety at a dose of 5 grams daily for up to 14 days (13317,13318,13319). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of lactoferrin when used topically.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used enterally in infants and children up to 6 years of age.
Lactoferrin has been used safely as a part of enteral feeds in preterm infants at a dose of 250 mg daily or up to 300 mg/kg daily for up to 30 days (97783,97787,104857,104858,104870). Formula fortified with bovine lactoferrin 0.6 grams/L and bovine milk fat globule membrane 5 grams/L has also been used safely in infants for up to 12 months (104866). Bovine and recombinant human lactoferrin 1000 mg daily for up to 6 months has been used with apparent safety in weaned infants up to 18 months of age (97783,97787). Bovine lactoferrin 336-500 mg per week has been used with apparent safety in children 1-6 years of age for 13-15 weeks (104861,104862). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of lactoferrin in children over 6 years of age.
PREGNANCY: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in amounts commonly found in foods.
Lactoferrin has Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) status in the US (13312).
PREGNANCY: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally in medicinal amounts.
Lactoferrin has been used with apparent safety during the second or third trimester of pregnancy at doses of up to 250 mg daily for up to 8 weeks (97788). Also, bovine lactoferrin has been used with apparent safety throughout all trimesters of pregnancy at doses of up to 200 mg daily (104865).
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of intravaginal lactoferrin during pregnancy and lactation; avoid using.
LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in amounts commonly found in foods.
Lactoferrin has Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) status in the US (13312). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of lactoferrin when used medicinally during lactation; 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.

General ...Orally, bovine colostrum is well tolerated.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, bovine colostrum has caused nausea and vomiting in an individual with HIV-related cryptosporidiosis (4905). Bloating, nausea, diarrhea, and unsettled stomach have been reported as mild in nature by a few patients in clinical trials of bovine colostrum (92414,101792).
Hematologic ...Orally, bovine colostrum has caused decreased serum hematocrit in HIV patients treated for infectious diarrhea (4905).
Hepatic ...Orally, bovine colostrum has caused elevated liver function tests in HIV patients treated for infectious diarrhea (4905).
Immunologic ...Topically, there is a case report of anaphylaxis, urticaria, and itching related to bovine colostrum (101793).
Other ...Theoretical adverse effects to bovine colostrum include an allergic reaction in individuals allergic to bovine milk products. There is also some concern that bovine colostrum that is obtained from cows in countries where bovine spongiform encephalitis (BSE) has been reported might be unsafe, however, there is no research indicating that colostrum can be contaminated with the BSE-causing prion. Countries where BSE has been reported include Great Britain, France, The Netherlands, Portugal, Luxembourg, Ireland, Switzerland, Oman, and Belgium (1825). Until more is known, tell patients to avoid these products unless country of origin can be determined. Patients should avoid products that are produced in countries where BSE has been found.
General
...Orally, bovine and human recombinant lactoferrin are well tolerated when used in typical doses.
However, hjgher doses of 7.2 grams daily increase the risk of side effects and decrease tolerability.
Topically, there is a limited amount of information on the adverse effects of lactoferrin.
Intravaginally, no adverse effects have been reported. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Constipation, diarrhea, epigastric pain, and nausea.
Topically: Burning sensation.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Bowel obstruction, intestinal perforation.
Dermatologic ...Orally, at higher doses of 7. 2 grams daily, lactoferrin has been reported to cause skin rash (13323). Topically, burning sensation has been reported (97784).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, lactoferrin has been reported to cause diarrhea in some patients. At higher doses of 7.2 grams daily, anorexia and constipation have been reported (13323). However, gastrointestinal effects of lactoferrin, including epigastric pain, constipation, nausea, and diarrhea, are less common than with other sources of iron such as ferrous sulfate (97788). In neonates, single cases of jaundice, bloody stool, bowel obstruction, and intestinal perforation have been reported in clinical trials (104857,104858).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, at higher doses of 7. 2 grams daily, lactoferrin has been reported to cause fatigue and chills (13323).
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).
