Compulsin FAQ

Q: What is Compulsin?
A: Compulsin is a liquid OTC formula with a multi-tiered approach to naturally relieve obsessive compulsive disorder symptoms. We stabilize active homeopathic ingredients into our organic purified ionized mineral water base, to ensure you enjoy relief from OCD symptoms such as obsessive or compulsive behavior or thoughts, restlessness, and uncertainty.

Q: Can Compulsin treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?
A: A: Compulsin is indicated to relieve Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) symptoms including compulsive behaviors, obsessive thoughts, and peculiar mental impulses. OCD itself is defined as an anxiety disorder in which people have unwanted and repeated thoughts, feelings, ideas, sensations (obsessions), or behaviors that make them feel driven to do something (compulsions). OCD can be very serious and should always be attended to by your physician or other specialist. Compulsin is not intended to replace any OCD medications prescribed by your physician.

Q: Is Compulsin approved by the FDA?
A: Compulsin is an FDA product listed natural medicine and uses an OTC formulation. The active homeopathic ingredients are officially recognized, as listed in the HPUS and Homeopathic Materia Medica. The FDA has regulated homeopathic medicine since 1938. Guidelines in the HPUS and in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act determine which ingredients are used for particular symptoms. The system of regulation conducted is the same as that of nonprescription OTC drugs, according to The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM). Compulsin is manufactured and packaged following the FDA's Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP).

Q: How do I take Compulsin?
A: Dosage and directions are included on the label. You can add liquid Compulsin to a glass of purified water, or dispense directly into your mouth. See detailed instructions in picture below.

Avoid contamination: Do not touch the dropper to anything other than the product. (fig. 1,2)
When dispensing, squirt the homeopathic into your mouth without touching the dropper to your mouth. (fig. 3)

If dispensing directly into mouth is not convenient, you can put the solution into a spoon or a glass of water. (fig. 4,5)
Make sure to use non-metallic objects, as the metal can change the product's effectiveness.



After opening:
Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid direct sunlight, along with prolonged exposure to high temperatures.

Q: How often do I take Compulsin?
A: For optimal benefit, take Compulsin consistently every day, once in the morning and again at night. You may also take Compulsin as needed throughout the day.

Q: How soon can I expect to see results from Compulsin?
A: Compulsin is designed to work with your body to relieve your OCD symptoms. For many individuals, results will be apparent within a few hours of the first dose. Every person is different, however, and the exact time taken for relief can vary. Compulsin functions best in a body free of underlying conditions. These can hinder the body's ability to achieve balance. Observing proper nutrition and regular exercise is essential in order to experience the results of Compulsin. We encourage you to take Compulsin twice daily for 30 days to begin experiencing the results desired. If you cannot see improvement in the first 30 days, you are welcome to take advantage of our 60-day satisfaction guarantee and return the product. If you do see some improvement, however, we recommend that you stay with the program for 3-6 months to receive the desired results. Please see our 60-day return policy.

Q: How long does one bottle of Compulsin last?
A: A single bottle of Compulsin is two fluid ounces. The product's dosage is given according to weight. So, if you weigh 50+ lbs, each two-ounce bottle will last approximately one month for one person, depending on your individual health needs and usage.

Q: How much Compulsin will I need?
A: Each bottle of Compulsin offers a one month supply for one adult. Multiple family members taking Compulsin may need more than one bottle per month.

Q: How safe is Compulsin?
A: Compulsin is made with natural ingredients and is, first and foremost, formulated to be safe. Compulsin has no reported side effects or drug interactions, and may be used with other prescription or OTC medications. Compulsin is safe for both adults and children 2 years of age and up.

Q: Has Compulsin been clinically tested?
A: The individual ingredients in Compulsin have claims based on the Homeopathic Materia Medica. As a composite formulation, however, Compulsin has not been clinically tested.

Q: Can I safely take Compulsin with medications?
A: The ingredients in Compulsin are natural and safe. Compulsin is safe to take with other prescription or OTC medications. If you are currently taking prescription medications for OCD, we recommend you consult your health care professional before discontinuing the use of any medication, as Compulsin is intended for self-limiting, not clinical conditions.

Q: Is Compulsin an herbal remedy?
A: Compulsin is not an herbal remedy. Herbal remedies are based on the herb's use in traditional medicine, while homeopathy uses the "law of similars." Herbs use larger quantities of the product per dose. Homeopathic medicines use minute doses of the substance to address the symptoms. Herbal substances are regulated as food, where as the FDA accepts homeopathic products as drugs.

Q: What is the "law of similars?"
A: The "law of similars" is the idea that like relieves like. Homeopathy demonstrates that a substance that produces a certain set of symptoms in a healthy person can relieve the same symptoms in a sick person experiencing them. The homeopathic medicine is diluted to such minute doses that the ingredients are very safe.

Q: What is "Natural Medicine?"
A: As a natural medicine, Compulsin safely activates the body's natural relief and balance mechanisms. Many other OTC formulations rely on overwhelming chemical responses to activate or block certain responses and come with notable side effects you can read about in the product indications. Natural medicine is safe, and the ingredients in Compulsin are regulated by the FDA according to the guidelines for OTC homeopathic formulation. While "natural" implies indications about the ingredients (Compulsin does contain natural active homeopathic ingredients), "natural medicine" more accurately refers to how the medicine works.

Q: What is Integrated Medicine?
A: Integrated medicine is a functional, balanced approach to wellness. Rather than relying solely on conventional methods, such as prescription drugs and surgery, or alternative methods like acupuncture and homeopathy, integrated medicine recognizes the two can work well together. Health care providers who practice integrated medicine will use methods such as homeopathy in complement with more intense and/or invasive treatments.

Q: What is homeopathy?
A: Homeopathy is an officially recognized medicinal therapy using safe, naturally occurring substances to relieve symptoms of self-limiting conditions in the body. Observing the homeopathic dilution process per regulatory guidelines, we formulate the active ingredients in Compulsin for safe relief from OCD symptoms.

Q: What is the homeopathic dilution process?
A:Homeopathic Medicines are believed to be more effective when its active ingredient is diluted. This is the minimum dose approach to homeopathy. The purpose of potency is to dilute the product until it can do no harm to a person. Homeopathic drug potency is indicated by such terms as "10X," 30X," and "LM1." These refer to the amount of times and by what ratio the base substance has been diluted.

Q: What is HPUS?
A: The Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States (HPUS) is a compilation of standards for the components and preparation of homeopathic drugs. It has been in continuous publication since 1897 and became the official U.S. homeopathic regulatory guideline in 1938 by authorization of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The HPUS is compiled by the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia Convention of the United States (HPCUS), a non-governmental, non-profit scientific organization of experts trained and experienced in the field of homeopathy. The HPCUS works closely with the FDA and U.S. homeopathic organizations. Compulsin's active homeopathic ingredients are listed in the HPUS and are therefore officially recognized.

Q: What is "Materia Medica"?
A: "Materia Medica" (Latin) refers to a body of information about medical knowledge. At HelloLife, we refer to specific Materia Medica containing information on homeopathic ingredients. In general, we refer to William Boericke's Homeopathic Materia Medica. The active homeopathic ingredients in Compulsin are recognized by this long-standing Materia Medica and are not required to undergo additional safety and interaction testing as new OTC drugs do.

Q: What is purified ionized mineral water?
A: Purified ionized mineral water uses organic trace minerals to supplement the minerals necessary for enzyme functions in the body. This can speed up cellular metabolism and support your natural repair processes. The purified ionized mineral water in Compulsin is an effective stabilizing agent and catalyst for the active homeopathic ingredients, as opposed to alcohol, which is common to most homeopathic preparations but irritating to your system.

Q: How is Compulsin different from conventional products?
A: Compulsin is intended to safely relieve OCD related symptoms without the negative side effects commonly associated with other OCD symptom relief products, ap per product indications.

Q: Is Compulsin a cure?
A: Compulsin is a natural medicine for relieving obsessive and compulsive behavior and related symptoms, but it is not a cure. Instead, Compulsin is intended as a component of a healthy lifestyle, safely relieving your symptoms so you can focus on your health and life. Choose whole, fresh foods, clean, pure water and plenty of positive thought and movement. This will naturally increase the effectiveness of Compulsin and the overall health of your lifestyle.

Q: What are symptoms?
A: Symptoms are the aspects of illness you can see and feel. It's the way your body responds to an underlying problem. Symptoms tend to be negative manifestations but can be good in the sense they are your body's way of telling you something is wrong. Compulsin is intended to help relieve these negative symptoms. When you are no longer hindered by uncomfortable symptoms, you can concentrate on helping restore your body to its healthy balance.

Q: Is Compulsin a drug?
A: Because the ingredients in Compulsin meet the "Criteria for Eligibility of Drugs for Inclusion in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States(HPUS)," and that the HPUS is an officially recognized compendium of homeopathic drugs by the FDA, Compulsin is considered an OTC homeopathic drug. Therefore, it has to comply with the Labeling Guidelines of the FDA. Homeopathic products have been considered drug products since 1938, by authorization of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Although Compulsin is technically considered a homeopathic drug (remedy) by law, its ingredients are natural and safe for relieving your OCD symptoms. Compulsin is not intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of any disease.

Q: Will this product cause me to experience detoxification symptoms?
A: The purified ionized mineral water base of this product is OTC formulated to initiate a seamless detoxification process but some sensitive bodies may experience initial detoxification effects. As minerals begin to activate enzymes, chelating toxins and metals, sensitive bodies may experience mild acute symptoms of sores in the mouth (similar to ones caused by eating excessive salty or acidic foods) or loose stools. Symptoms should last no longer than 24 hours. Help your body through this process it by adding more fibrous raw fruits and vegetables to your diet during this time. Help your body through this process it by adding more fibrous raw fruits and vegetables to your diet during this time.

Q: Does Compulsin come with side effects?
A: According to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), a systematic review found homeopathic products such as Compulsin to be generally safe and unlikely to cause severe adverse reactions when taken as directed. Compulsin contains no alcohol, further limiting irritation to the body. While some individuals express concern about homeopathic aggravation (temporary worsening of symptoms after taking a homeopathic medicine), there is little evidence for it in clinical studies. Regardless of Compulsin's safety, it is always important to inform your health care provider about any self-medication (including natural products) you may use.

Q: What do I need to consider if I'm thinking about using homeopathy?
A: There are five important points to consider and act on, as stated by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM): First, homeopathy is not a replacement for proven conventional care or a visit to your health care professional. Second, research clinical studies conducted around the homeopathic remedies for the health condition you are trying to treat. Third, thoroughly acquaint yourself with any homeopathic practitioner you may visit. Fourth, women who are pregnant or nursing, or those thinking of using homeopathy for a child, should first consult with their health care professional. Fifth, inform all of your health care providers about any complementary and/or alternative practices you use.

What is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?

When many people think of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, they think of people who frequently wash their hands or who must keep everything in perfect order. However, this only scratches the surface of this much-misunderstood condition. OCD is actually a type of anxiety disorder that, in some cases, can be disabling.

People with OCD suffer from persistent distressing thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions), which are often performed in the hope of driving away the unwanted thoughts. These thoughts and rituals can begin to take over the person's life. Often, they may understand that their obsessions aren't reasonable; however, attempting to ignore them only makes the anxiety worse.

Symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Since OCD is a very individual disorder, it can manifest itself through a variety of different symptoms. Here are just a few of the most common.

Obsessions:

• Fear of dirt/germs
• Need for symmetry/order
• Fear of making a mistake
• Sexual thoughts or impulses

Compulsions:

• Repeated hand washing
• Counting (often in patterns)
• Performing a task a set number of times
• Repeated checking (turning off stove, locking doors, etc.)
• Arranging/rearranging items to put them in order
• Hoarding objects

Factors that Contribute to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

The cause of OCD is still under investigation, and isn't yet well understood. However, research has found a link between low levels of serotonin in the brain and the development of OCD. This is a trait that may be inherited.

Environmental factors that may play a role in developing OCD include: the death of a loved one, abuse, stressful life events, and illness.

At Home Treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

As with all anxiety disorders, it is important to discuss treatment options with your physician. However, to supplement treatment, it can be helpful to join a support group for people with anxiety disorders--even if only to remind you that you're not alone! It may also be helpful to explore stress management techniques, such as meditation, to soothe some of the anxiety associated with OCD.

Compulsin for OCD Symptom Relief

Compulsin Natural OCD Symptom Relief is homeopathically OTC formulated to quickly and safely relieve symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and is safe for adults and children over age 2.

Additionally, Compulsin goes further than other OCD symptom relievers, and actually promotes balance, recovery and repair. That's because Compulsin works with the body, not against it.

You should still continue to lead a healthy lifestyle while taking Compulsin. If OCD symptoms do not improve or become more severe, consult your health care professional, as this may be an indication of a more serious health condition.
