Take strictly as a daily nutritional supplement. For adults and children over 12 years of age:

• Standard Adult Dosage: Take 1 softgel capsule daily.
• Dosage Limit: Do not exceed this stated daily dose unless explicitly evaluated and instructed by a healthcare professional.

Contraindications

• Epilepsy & Seizure Disorders: Do NOT use if you have been clinically diagnosed with epilepsy, schizophrenia, or are taking medications that lower the seizure threshold (such as phenothiazines), as evening primrose oil can rarely trigger or worsen seizure activity.
• Bleeding Conditions: Strictly contraindicated if you suffer from a bleeding disorder (like hemophilia) or manage chronic internal bruising.
• Hypersensitivity: Avoid if you have a known history of severe allergic reactions to evening primrose oil or bovine gelatin.

Side Effects

• Common: Mild, temporary stomach grumbling, minor nausea, loose stools, or light headaches during the first few days of starting the supplement.
• Action: To completely bypass any initial digestive grumbles, ensure you never take the capsule on a completely empty stomach.

Precautions and Warnings

• The Surgery Stop-Rule: If you are scheduled to undergo any clinical or dental surgical procedure, you must stop taking your Valupak capsules at least 2 weeks before the surgery. The active GLA can mildly prolong bleeding times and delay natural blood clotting.
• Anticoagulant Interactions: Consult your physician before starting if you are actively taking prescription blood thinners (like Warfarin, Rivaroxaban, or daily Aspirin) to prevent an increased risk of bruising.
• Pregnancy Warning: Generally avoided during early or mid-pregnancy as it can rarely act as a uterine stimulant. Consult your obstetrician before taking any herbal oils during gestation.
