Reviews from doctors
Let's look at the reviews about the composition of Ginkum. In their comments on various websites and forums, doctors often praise him. They note that the drug qualitatively regulates microcirculation in the body.
Doctors write that thanks to the use of this remedy, people’s blood composition noticeably improves, along with its properties and metabolic processes in cells. Moreover, according to experts, patients’ entire circulatory system improves.
It is also reported that Ginkoum supplies the human brain with oxygen and glucose, reducing the risk of blood clots. Doctors say that one of the valuable properties of the drug is that it prevents hypoxia, and tissues are protected from lack of oxygen; among other things, metabolism is regulated, and an antioxidant effect is produced on the body. Taking the drug helps reduce swelling of the brain tissue.
Thanks to all the advantages described above, doctors admit that they often prescribe this herbal medicine to their patients and confirm its high effectiveness.
During pregnancy
When carrying a fetus, such pharmaceutical prescription is contraindicated. Clinical studies have not been conducted in this category of patients, so it is desirable to choose a safer treatment. Detailed instructions for use of Ginkoum inform that the biological supplement is contraindicated during lactation. The active ingredient of the dietary supplement is excreted in mother's milk and is harmful to the health of the infant.
Remedy for headaches
The drug in question has a number of capabilities that make its use advisable for headaches. Its main properties are as follows:
- Improving blood circulation in the brain and its supply of glucose and oxygen.
- Normalization of blood flow.
- Preventing platelet aggregation.
It is worth noting that Ginkoum capsules contain flavonoids necessary for every person (we are talking about rutin and terpene lactones), which reduce capillary fragility and inhibit blood clotting. They also increase the elasticity of red blood cells, which normalizes blood supply to the brain.
Contraindications
A standard warning for all medications, as a rule, is individual intolerance. For the drug "Ginkoum" a similar ban on use is also relevant. Thus, doctors do not recommend taking it and do not prescribe it in case of increased sensitivity to the main component of the drug or its auxiliary ingredients.
Against the background of low blood clotting, as well as in the acute phase of a peptic ulcer of the digestive system, as well as gastritis with erosion, it is also necessary to abandon the pharmaceutical agent in question.
If the patient has certain pathologies of the cardiovascular system, he will also have to refrain from using Ginkoum. For example, taking this drug is strictly contraindicated against the background of acute myocardial infarction and pronounced low blood pressure.
It is not suitable for use in case of severe disorders of the central circulation, as well as in the case of a high risk of hemorrhage inside the skull. Children under twelve years of age should not take medications based on ginkgo biloba. You should familiarize yourself with the instructions and composition of Ginkum in advance.
