Overview
•Each capsule provides 8 mg zinc, which is below the adult upper limit; however, taking multiple capsules daily adds meaningfully to total zinc intake from diet and other supplements.
•Long-term higher zinc intake can reduce copper status, so avoid stacking this with high-dose zinc products unless supervised.
•Zinc can bind certain medications, especially tetracycline and quinolone antibiotics, penicillamine, and thyroid medication; separate dosing by several hours when advised by a clinician.
•Possible digestive effects include nausea, stomach upset, heartburn, or a metallic taste, particularly if taken without food.
•This product contains gelatin, so it is not vegetarian or vegan; no major food allergens are clearly listed in the OCR label.
•Pregnant or breastfeeding users and children should use only with healthcare-professional guidance, despite the relatively modest zinc dose per capsule.
