How does Milk Thistle Extract work in Iberogast?+
Milk Thistle Extract, together with other herbal components, contributes to Iberogast’s multi‑target action.

What is the usual dose of Iberogast?+

Iberogast should be avoided by individuals with known hypersensitivity to any of its herbal components, by patients with severe liver disease without medical supervision, and by pregnant women unless the benefit outweighs the risk as assessed by a healthcare professional.
