Safety
Safety
Saw palmetto oil extract has been shown to be well tolerated over decades of use. The most common saw palmetto side effects are gastrointestinal issues. It is recommended that Flomentum be taken with food.
Flomentum has proven comparability to the leading European saw palmetto herbal medicine, Permixon®. Patients taking the leading European saw palmetto herbal medicine, Permixon® experienced sexual side effects at rates similar to those at baseline prior to treatment and at levels experienced by patients taking placebo.
