PureLung Side Effects: What Could Happen and When to Stop
No trial of PureLung was found, so its side effects are not measured. The named ingredients can cause stomach upset, headache, bleeding risk with ginkgo and rare liver problems with concentrated green tea. Stop taking it and call a clinician for hives, swelling, black stools or yellow skin.

Why can't anyone list the side effects exactly?
A side effect list comes from studies that follow people who take a product. No such study of PureLung was found. What remains is the label, plus what is known about each named ingredient.
That gap is worth stating clearly, because pages that list exact percentages for this capsule are inventing them. Our side effects page uses the same careful method.
Common mild effects to watch for
Stomach upset is the most common complaint with any capsule that holds many plant extracts. Taking it with food usually helps. Other mild effects seen with some ingredients include headache, dizziness, a jittery feeling from tea extract and a change in how food tastes.
- Nausea or an upset stomach.
- Headache or light-headedness.
- Trouble sleeping if you take tea extract late in the day.
- Loose stools.
Mild effects that fade within a few days are often not serious. Stop the capsule if they persist.
Effects tied to named ingredients
| Ingredient | Caution |
|---|---|
| Ginkgo | May raise bleeding risk, so ask before surgery or with blood thinners (MSK, Ginkgo) |
| Green tea extract | Rare liver injury has been reported with concentrated extracts (NCCIH, Green Tea) |
| Cinnamon extract | Some cassia types carry coumarin, which matters for the liver (NCCIH, Cinnamon) |
| Himalayan salt | A salt adds sodium; a low-sodium diet needs a clinician's view |
| B6 and B12 | High long-term B6 doses have been linked to nerve problems (NIH ODS, Vitamin B6) |
| Bacopa | Reported to cause stomach cramps in some studies (LiverTox, Bacopa monnieri) |
Because the amounts are not printed, you cannot tell which of these cautions comes close to a real dose.
Signs to stop and call
Stop taking the capsule and contact a clinician for any of the following.
- Hives, swelling of the lips or face, or a rash.
- Unusual bruising or bleeding that does not stop.
- Dark urine, pale stools, yellow skin or eyes, or strong stomach pain.
- Fast or uneven heartbeat.
- New or worse cough or breathlessness.
Trouble breathing, a swollen throat, chest pain or fainting are emergencies. Do not wait to see if they pass (NHLBI, COPD Symptoms).
