Description

Advanced GI Support
IM Repair contains a blend of traditional and clinically trialled herbs and nutrients to provide anti-inflammatory, demulcent and antioxidant activity to help maintain the health of the gastrointestinal (GI) system.

• May provide relief from the discomfort and symptoms of gastritis and non-specific dyspepsia including bloating, belching, flatulence and abdominal fullness and pain.
• Contains GutGard™, a proprietary extract of deglycyrrhizinated licorice, which has been clinically demonstrated to relieve the symptoms of dyspepsia after two weeks when compared to placebo.
• Mucilaginous and polysaccharide-rich demulcent herbs (marshmallow and slippery elm) used in traditional western herbal medicine to help relieve inflammation and irritation of the gastric mucosa.
• Slippery elm may provide vulnerary (wound healing) effects on the bowel mucosa.
• Aloe vera, slippery elm, quercetin and glutathione may provide antioxidant activity.
• Glutamine provides a major energy source for enterocytes and colonocytes, maintaining the integrity of the gastrointestinal mucosa.
• Provides sources of viscous fibre to help keep bowels regular and maintain bowel health.

Prescribing Information:
Not recommended for use by pregnant and lactating women.
Licorice seems to increase metabolism and decrease levels of warfarin in animal models.
Theoretically, licorice might reduce the effect of antihypertensive drug therapy.
Concomitant use of licorice and oral corticosteroids, such as hydrocortisone, has been shown to potentiate the duration of activity and increase blood levels of corticosteroids.
Concomitant use of licorice and corticosteroids or diuretics might also increase potassium loss and increase the risk of potassium depletion.
Theoretically, licorice might interfere with estrogen therapy due to estrogenic and anti-estrogenic effects.
Theoretically, marshmallow might have additive effects with hypoglycemic therapy. Dose adjustments to antidiabetes drugs may be necessary.
The mucilage in marshmallow might impair absorption of oral drugs.
Marshmallow is thought to have diuretic properties and therefore, theoretically, might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Animal studies suggest that concurrent use of quercetin and cyclosporin decreases bioavailability of the medication.
In vitro evidence suggests that quercetin may theoretically compete with quinolone antibiotics due to binding to the DNA gyrase site in bacteria.
In vivo evidence suggests that quercetin increases digoxin bioavailability.
Theoretically, it might have additive blood pressure lowering effects when used with antihypertensive drugs and increase the risk of hypotension.
Theoretically, concurrent use of quercetin and drugs metabolized by the CYP450 enzymes might result in reduced drug elimination, increased drug serum levels, and increased effects.
Theoretically, cinnamon may have an additive effect when used with hypoglycaemic agents.
