It is important to note that dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. If you have any questions about the use of this product, or if you are taking medication regularly or have a chronic illness, please consult a doctor or pharmacist beforehand.

The following side effects may occur when taking Ginkgo Biloba, as contained in the product GN Ginkgo Biloba Health Line:

- Gastrointestinal discomfort (such as nausea, abdominal pain, or diarrhea)
- Headaches
- Dizziness
- Allergic skin reactions (redness, swelling, or itching)
- In rare cases, palpitations
- An increased risk of bleeding (e.g., nosebleeds or heavier menstrual bleeding)

Interactions with other medications are particularly important:

1. Blood thinners and anticoagulants: Ginkgo Biloba can enhance the effects of medications such as acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), warfarin, phenprocoumon (Marcumar), clopidogrel, and direct oral anticoagulants (such as rivaroxaban or apixaban). This leads to a significantly increased risk of internal bleeding.

2. Pain relievers (NSAIDs): Combining ginkgo with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen or diclofenac increases the risk of stomach bleeding.

3. Antiepileptic drugs: Ginkgo can lower the seizure threshold, which may impair the effectiveness of anti-seizure medications.

4. Antidepressants: Interactions may occur with certain psychotropic drugs, affecting the concentration of the active ingredients in the blood.

5. Diabetes medications: Ginkgo can affect blood sugar levels and alter the effects of insulin or oral antidiabetic drugs.

6. Hepatometabolized drugs: Ginkgo can affect enzymes (such as cytochrome P450) responsible for the breakdown of numerous other medications, which may unpredictably alter their effectiveness or side effect profile.

Due to its blood-thinning effect, the product should be discontinued at least 36 to 48 hours before any planned surgical procedures. Consultation with a doctor is mandatory before taking this medication if you are also taking other medication.

When using GN Ginkgo Biloba Health Line, special caution is advised for certain groups of people, or its use is prohibited altogether. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not take the product, as there is insufficient scientific evidence regarding its safety for the child, and ginkgo can also affect the tendency to bleed. Diabetics should consult a doctor before use, as ginkgo extracts can affect insulin metabolism and blood sugar levels. Furthermore, people taking anticoagulant medication or suffering from blood clotting disorders must avoid the product or use it only after explicit medical consultation, as the risk of bleeding may increase. This applies particularly before planned surgical procedures, for which the product should be discontinued in a timely manner. People with epilepsy should also be cautious, as certain components of the ginkgo extract could affect the seizure threshold. In general, it is strongly recommended that all of the aforementioned groups, as well as people with pre-existing chronic conditions, consult a doctor before first use.

For a noticeable effect on concentration or memory, Ginkgo Biloba Health Line should be taken over a longer period. Initial positive effects are usually visible after 4 to 6 weeks, although a course of at least 8 to 12 weeks is recommended to allow the extract to develop its full potential.
