Most of the pathologies that are treated with Apitox are chronic and irreversible, while the bee venom is in your body you will feel the relief if you stop using it probably the pain thrusts will return over time.

The first tablet is best consumed on an empty stomach.

It means that the tablet is placed under the tongue until it dissolves.
It is not accompanied by any liquid or chewed or swallowed.
If you swallow the tablet, gastric juices inactivate the active substance therefore it has no effect.

No. The tablets contain saccharin which is a sweetener.

Either presentation is applied to the pain area with a circular massage in small quantities.

The gel, unlike the cream, is a liposome product that produces a faster absorption of the poison, crossing all the layers of the skin allowing faster relief, while the cream, although it contains the same amount of poison, requires more massage.

The dressing or patch is removed from the gold envelope. First the white paper flaps are removed, it is placed in the area of pain that has to be dry, it is tightened well and finally the protective plastic that has a colored strip is removed. Only one patch can be applied at a time and left for 48 hours. If it is well placed, it should not peel off and you can bathe with the patch on. Keep in mind that the patch size is 10 x 15 therefore it must adapt to the area where you want to use.

In no way can we cut the patch, as it loses its effect. The poison is deposited in the center of the dressing and if cut it does not fulfill its function.

For chronic cases where inflammation and pain predominate, it is always best to treat with the tablets to stop the thrusts and so that the inflammation does not progress. If the pain is caused by a blow or a bad movement and we just want to relieve, in that case you can apply any of the other products, always considering the area of the body. If it is a flat and easily accessible place, placing a patch keeps us relieved without the need to apply another product in the same area. If the pain is in several areas, the gel or cream is recommended as it will be more practical.

The treatment with tablets can also be performed using cream or nano gel or one patch at a time.

Each organism is unique, the time varies in each person. In the case of tablets it is estimated that the effect is seen at approximately 30 days. The other products for being topical use are fast acting.
