Can I take Reparagen with prescription medicines for arthritis, like ibuprofen or Celebrex®?

Yes. Reparagen is correctly termed a complementary medicine, which means that it can be taken with other approaches.

Should Reparagen be prescribed by a physician?

Can I take glucosamine or chondrotin with Reparagen?

"'Reparagen plus Glucosamine" contains Glucosamine sulfate 2KCl, the form with the best clinical evidence of support and the only form available via this website. This is a cost effective way to get both the benefits of Reparagen and also active glucosamine.'"

Are the botanical ingredients organic?

"To be 'organic', the material and process must be 'certified' by an American or European company at a hefty fee purportedly assuring that they have not been contaminated with pesticides and that the machinery used to produce the final product is "pesticide free". No Amazonian ingredient is truly certified 'organic' as this is an expensive process and the indigenous peoples cannot afford pesticides in the growing of their natural products. All ingredients in this product are pesticide free, cultivated by traditional means or wild harvested."

Could the medicinal plants be grown in North America?

"It is theoretically possible to grow these medicinal plants outside of the Amazon and Andes regions although we are unsure if they would still maintain their potent properties. However, we believe any attempt to do so would be unethical as it would not allow the indigenous peoples to benefit from their own culture and heritage."
