FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
• WHERE DOES PHARMADEN FIT INTO
MY PROTOCOL?
Once you have determined
the patient’s stage of gum disease, include
PerioTherapy (and OsteoTherapy if necessary) with
their Home Care Program. PerioCare should then
follow the 60 to 90 days of PerioTherapy, as an
ongoing maintenance regimen.
• WHAT DO OTHER
PROFESSIONALS SAY TO THEIR PATIENTS ABOUT PHARMADEN?
For PerioTherapy - “It is essential to
also support your overall treatment from the inside.
I want you to take____capsule(s) of this
nutraceutical twice a day with food for____ days.
(*and 2 capsules twice a day of OsteoTherapy for
re-mineralization support”). For PerioCare- “I want
you to take one capsule twice a day with food as a
maintenance program” (”and continue with the
OsteoTherapy” if applicable.)
• ARE ALL NUTRIENTS AND
NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS OF EQUAL QUALITY?
Absolutely not! Pharmaden’s dramatic results can be
attributed to two things - the quality and the
balance of the nutrients. Pharmaden’s nutraceuticals
are manufactured under the highest manufacturing
standard established by the FDA for drugs called the
“Current Good Manufacturing Practice (eGMP) for the
manufacturing, processing, packaging and holding of
drugs”.
The other standard that is essential to
denote quality, comes from the United States
Pharmacopeia (USP) which sets quality standards for
prescription and over-the-counter drugs. Pharmaden
nutrients meet the UPS Grade 23 & 24 standard, which
is the highest level possible, and we use only the
highest quality extracts available from throughout
the world.
• ARE THERE ANY
CONTRAINDICATIONS WITH PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES OR
ADVERSE EFFECTS?
The general is “NO”,
however, it is standard procedure for all dietary
supplements as well as antibiotics, to have the
patient discuss the use with their physician. There
were no adverse effects with PerioTheraphy in the
Loma Linda University clinical study.
• SHOULD THE LENGHT OF
TIME A PATIENT TAKES PRODUCTS CONTAINING ECHINACEA
BE LIMITED?
The length of time should
be limited to only as long as it takes to strengthen
the immune system. This is why PerioTherapy contains
Echinacea and our daily maintenance product,
PerioCare, does not.
• MY PATIENT IS TAKING A
MULTI-MINERAL / MULTI-VITAMIN, DO THEY STILL NEED
PHARMADEN?
Yes. Pharmaden was
specifically formulated for their oral health
condition and unlike most store brands, uses only
the highest quality ingredients in the proper
synergistic balance to one another to achieve
optimal oral health results. The patient may
continue their vitamins if they like, although
patients taking a calcium supplement should be
encouraged to finish what they have and then switch
to OsteoTherapy instead.
