WARNINGS:
Symptoms
of menopause may also be symptoms of a serious disorder that should be
ruled out by a qualified healthcare practitioner. This formula is
contraindicated in pregnancy. Although a rare occurrence, licorice may
cause pseudo-hyperaldosteronism that can cause hypertension and edema.
If an individual has pre-existing hypertension, blood pressure should
be monitored regularly if using licorice long term. This formula should
not be used in cases of hyperadrenalism like Cushing’s syndrome and
Conn’s syndrome. There is a 2003 study showing an increase risk of
breast cancer metastasis (spreading) to the lungs in rats from
Cimicifuga racemosa (black cohosh), which contraindicates its use in
women who are high risk for or have a history of breast cancer.
