Nothing to get frightened,no overdose issue...

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,

First, I congratulate for your age (101 years old) and being able to communicate online. Wish you will have this healthy and clarity for much longer.

Proxene ES is a herbal supplementation which contains also vitamins. So, there is nothing to be frightened in discontinuing.

If you want to stop using it, just reduce the actual dose (from 2 capsules to 1 daily) for a period of 2 weeks. After this period, you can discontinue using it or can use once a week for another 2 weeks until stopping it completely.

There is no risk for overdose as it is a natural supplement. However, if you notice anything unusual, should stop taking it immediately and consult with your doctor for further evaluation.

All the best!
Dr.Albana
