KORODIN® drops contain a variety of active ingredients that have been specially formulated to promote cardiovascular health. Proper use and dosage are crucial to achieve optimal results, while understanding potential side effects and risks is also essential.

In this article you will learn everything you need to know about KORODIN® dropsfrom the active components to application guidelines and safety instructions. This will enable you to make informed decisions and find the best support for your cardiovascular system.

What are KORODIN® Cardiovascular Drops?

KORODIN® Cardiovascular drops are a medicine specially designed to support the circulatory system. The active ingredient combination of D-camphor and an extract of fresh hawthorn fruit helps to alleviate the symptoms of low blood pressure, which can be particularly important in hypotensive and orthostatic circulatory disorders. These problems often occur when a person stands up after prolonged lying, bending or sitting, which can result in dizziness and nausea.

The dosage of the drops is usually given as 10 drops three times a day, which can be taken either on sugar or undiluted. The dosage can be adjusted after consultation with a doctor. KORODIN® drops are characterized by their rapid effectiveness and help within 5 minutes of taking them, without increasing the heart rate or impairing the effect of other medication.

Use in children, infants and patients with asthma-like respiratory diseases is not recommended due to the risk of allergic reactions to camphor.

The most important ingredients of KORODIN®

KORODIN® Cardiovascular drops have been developed for the targeted support of the cardiovascular system and contain an effective combination of active ingredients. The main ingredients of this medicine are D-camphor and the liquid extract of fresh hawthorn fruit. In a 100 g solution of KORODIN® contains 2.5 g of D-camphor and 97.3 g of hawthorn fruit extract. Ethanol is used as an extracting agent for the extraction of the hawthorn fruits. This combination has proven to be effective and well tolerated over many years and can be used by different age groups.

Active components explained

Korodin® Cardiovascular drops are a proven remedy for low blood pressure and associated circulatory problems. The active components of these drops are D-camphor and hawthorn fruit extract.

D-camphor is known for its rapid onset of action to regulate blood pressure. It can effectively help with dizziness caused by low blood pressure. Within just 5 minutes of ingestion, the drops can help to alleviate circulatory problems.

In parallel, hawthorn fruit extract is traditionally used to support cardiac performance. It contributes to the treatment of circulatory problems and can improve the body's oxygen uptake, which offers relief especially in cases of shortness of breath.

The combination of these two ingredients makes Korodin® Cardiovascular Drops into an effective medicine to treat symptoms of low blood pressure and to promote stable circulatory function.

Summary of active components:

• D-camphor: Rapid blood pressure regulation, counteracts dizziness
• Hawthorn fruit extract: Strengthens cardiac performance, improves oxygen uptake, relieves shortness of breath

The role of the individual ingredients for cardiovascular health

Korodin® cardiovascular drops are a preparation for the treatment of circulatory disorders, especially low blood pressure. The main active ingredients play a decisive role in cardiovascular health:

• D-camphorThis active ingredient stimulates the circulation, which is particularly beneficial in cases of low blood pressure and the resulting dizziness. It helps to stabilize the circulation and can therefore reduce dizziness and nausea.
• Extract from fresh hawthorn fruitsHawthorn is traditionally known for its positive effect on heart health. The ingredients in the berries can support blood circulation and thus strengthen heart function.

The use of Korodin® drops is uncomplicated. We recommend taking them on sugar or bread, which also makes them safe to use for diabetes patients. The dosage can be adjusted to up to 25 drops, three times a day, depending on individual requirements and the doctor's recommendation.

Korodin® Cardiovascular drops thus facilitate the treatment of circulatory problems thanks to their well-tolerated and flexibly dosable ingredients.

Use of KORODIN® Cardiovascular drops

The use of KORODIN® Cardiovascular Drops helps with low blood pressure and alleviates circulatory problems. To achieve the optimum effect of these drops, they should be taken throughout the day. The general recommendation is for adults to drizzle 10 drops onto a piece of sugar or bread three times a day or apply undiluted to the tongue. When applied to sugar or bread, the drops should be slowly dissolved in the mouth or chewed in order to transfer them into the circulation. If more severe symptoms occur, it is advisable to increase the dose to 25 drops up to three times a day after consulting a doctor.

In the event of attacks of weakness or imminent collapse, 5 to 10 drops can be taken every 15 minutes until the condition improves. The drops can also be taken undiluted if necessary, although it should be noted that some people may find the taste unpleasant.

It is recommended that breastfeeding mothers refrain from taking the drops. The reason for this is the potential risk to the breastfed infant, which cannot be ruled out.
