Lasuna, derived from Allium sativum (garlic), is a standardized herbal supplement extensively researched for its therapeutic properties in supporting cardiovascular wellness and lipid metabolism. Utilized in both traditional and modern phytotherapy, it offers a natural adjunct to conventional approaches for maintaining healthy cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and vascular function. Its active constituents, including allicin and other sulfur compounds, are stabilized through specialized extraction to ensure potency, efficacy, and reproducibility in clinical settings.

Features

• Standardized extract from Allium sativum (garlic)
• High allicin-yield formulation for consistent bioactive delivery
• Enteric coating to protect active compounds from gastric degradation
• Produced under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) compliance
• Free from artificial binders, preservatives, and common allergens
• Third-party tested for purity and heavy metal content

Benefits

• Supports healthy LDL cholesterol and total lipid profiles through HMG-CoA reductase modulation
• Promotes optimal blood pressure via vasodilation and nitric oxide enhancement
• Provides antioxidant protection against oxidative stress in vascular tissues
• Assists in platelet aggregation normalization, supporting circulatory health
• Enhances immune response through antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory mechanisms
• Contributes to overall metabolic and detoxification pathways

Common use

Lasuna is commonly used by individuals seeking natural support for hyperlipidemia, mild hypertension, and overall cardiovascular maintenance. It is often incorporated into integrative regimens for metabolic syndrome, early-stage atherosclerosis prevention, and as a complementary agent in diabetes management due to its mild hypoglycemic effects. Clinical applications also include adjunct use in antiplatelet therapy and antioxidant supplementation.

Dosage and direction

The typical adult dosage is one 300 mg tablet twice daily, taken with meals to enhance bioavailability and reduce potential gastrointestinal discomfort. For enteric-coated formulations, tablets should be swallowed whole without chewing. Dosage may be adjusted based on individual health status, concurrent conditions, and under professional supervision. Consistent daily use is recommended for cumulative benefits, with noticeable effects often observed within 4–8 weeks.

Precautions

• Discontinue use at least two weeks prior to scheduled surgery due to antiplatelet effects.
• Monitor blood glucose levels in diabetic patients, as Lasuna may enhance hypoglycemic therapy.
• Use cautiously in patients with bleeding disorders or those on anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
• Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women due to insufficient safety data.
• May cause gastrointestinal irritation in sensitive individuals; take with food if needed.

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity to Allium sativum or any component of the formulation.
• Patients with active peptic ulcer disease or gastroesophageal reflux disorder (GERD).
• Individuals with known bleeding diathesis or hemorrhagic disorders.
• Concurrent use with strong anticoagulants like warfarin, unless under strict medical supervision.
• Pre- and post-operative patients within 14 days of surgical procedures.

Possible side effect

Most side effects are mild and dose-dependent, including:

• Gastrointestinal discomfort, such as heartburn, nausea, or bloating
• Characteristic garlic odor in breath and sweat
• Allergic reactions in sensitive individuals (rash, itching)
• Headache or dizziness in rare cases
• Increased risk of bleeding or bruising at higher doses

Drug interaction

• Anticoagulants/Antiplatelets (e.g., warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel): Increased bleeding risk.
• Hypoglycemic agents (e.g., insulin, metformin): Potentiated blood glucose reduction.
• Protease inhibitors (e.g., saquinavir): May decrease drug bioavailability.
• Cytochrome P450 substrates: Theoretical interaction due to mild enzyme modulation.
• Blood pressure medications: Additive hypotensive effects possible.

Missed dose

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as remembered unless it is nearly time for the next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose to catch up. Resume regular dosing schedule with the next tablet. Consistency supports steady-state levels of active compounds for optimal effect.

Overdose

No documented cases of severe overdose. Excessive intake may lead to pronounced gastrointestinal distress, hypotension, dizziness, or bleeding manifestations. In case of suspected overdose, discontinue use immediately, provide symptomatic support, and seek medical attention if severe symptoms occur. Gastric lavage is generally not indicated.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the container tightly closed to protect from oxidation and humidity. Ideal storage temperature is between 15–25°C (59–77°F). Do not refrigerate or freeze. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
