Children Can Consume Transfer Factor

Children can consume transfer factor, which generally does not have any side effects, but it is not recommended for long-term use.

Can Children Consume Transfer Factor?

Transfer factor oral solution is an immunomodulatory agent that can enhance or suppress humoral and cellular immune functions and increase the number of helper T cells. It has the ability to regulate and enhance the cellular immune function of the body, improve the immune function of patients with immune defects, and prevent recurrent respiratory infections. Basically, it has few side effects and can be safely administered to children.

Side Effects of Transfer Factor

1. Transfer factor oral solution can enhance human immunity and has a prophylactic and health-promoting effect against diseases. Generally, it does not have any significant side effects and is not destroyed by pepsin or gastric acid after oral administration. However, special groups such as pregnant women are advised not to take it.

2. After oral administration, transfer factor is mainly absorbed through the upper gastrointestinal tract and can stay in the blood for more than 24 hours, allowing it to fully exert its immunomodulatory functions. It can also increase the number of helper T cells. As it is a traditional Chinese medicine, it is recommended not to take it with hot drinks or food to avoid affecting its efficacy.

3. Transfer factor oral solution is an immunostimulant that can be used as adjunctive treatment for childhood eczema. Therefore, children with eczema can take it. However, if the solution appears cloudy or discolored, it should not be consumed to prevent adverse reactions due to altered drug properties.

Precautions

As mentioned above, transfer factor oral solution is generally safe and has few side effects. However, as with any medication, excessive use should be avoided. It is recommended to stop using it for half a month after one month of continuous use. It is advisable to consult a doctor before taking it.
