Interactions
Due to its strong adsorption capacity, activated charcoal reduces the absorption of medication through the digestive tract. Therefore, there must be an interval of at least two hours between the consumption of coal and medication.
Pregnancy / lactation
Based on previous experience, there is no known risk for the child if used as intended. Systematic scientific research was never carried out. This drug can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Effects on ability to drive and use machines

Unwanted effects
