Can I take Noxitril if I have LOW blood pressure?

  • It is advised to avoid this supplement if you have low blood pressure as some of the ingredients may decrease blood pleasure leading to an unsafe drop in blood pressure.

Can I take Noxitril if I have diabetes?

  • Many of the ingredients may lower blood sugar and alter the effects of insulin. When adding a new supplement that may lower blood sugar, it is best to monitor your blood sugar daily for the first week. If you experience hypoglycemia, stop the supplement and speak with your doctor about possibly altering your regimen.

Are allergic reactions possible with Noxitril?

  • As with all supplements and medications there is the possibility of allergic reactions. With this supplement the L-arginine can cause an allergic response or make swelling in the airways worse. If you are prone to allergies or asthma use with caution.
