What CanPrev Andrographis is licensed for
It is licensed for sale by Health Canada and bears NPN 80133761. The licence also lists:
- Helps to relieve joint pain associated with osteoarthritis of the knee.

What is in each capsule
Andrographis paniculata is a leafy herb that has been part of both Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese herbal practice for a long time. Here it comes as ParActin, a 50:1 extract of the leaf and stem. The 150 mg in each capsule equals 7,500 mg of dried herb, and it is standardized to 50% of three related compounds: andrographolide, 14-deoxyandrographolide and neoandrographolide.
The vitamin C is PureWay-C, at 200 mg per capsule. The 4 mg of citrus bioflavonoids come from five fruits: orange, lemon, mandarin, grapefruit and lime.
Hypromellose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose and rice bran oil are the non-medicinal ingredients. CanPrev lists it as vegan and GMO-free, with no gluten, dairy, soy, wheat, yeast, sugar, artificial colours, flavours, preservatives or animal products.
How to take it
Adults 18 and over take 1 capsule twice a day. Ask a healthcare practitioner before using it for more than 3 months. For osteoarthritis joint pain, the label says to use it for at least 1 month.
Do not use it if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive, or if you have a bleeding condition, low blood pressure or fertility issues. Ask a healthcare practitioner first if you have stomach ulcers, excess stomach acid or oesophageal reflux, a cardiovascular or immune system condition, or diabetes, or if you take immunosuppressants, blood thinners, blood pressure or diabetes medication, or any other medications or supplements. Stomach upset, headache, loss of appetite, rash or hives can occur, in which case stop use. The full directions and cautions are under How to Take.
Who it suits
Adults who want andrographis and vitamin C together in one capsule, at a standardized extract strength printed on the label. It is vegan, so it fits plant-based diets, and two capsules a day keeps the routine simple. Because of the cautions above, read the full label first if you take any regular medication.
