Description: 

An ultra-fine, highly porous black powder processed to have an expansive surface area, allowing it to chemically bind (adsorb) and trap toxins, gases, and impurities. 

Prescription:

 Over-the-Counter (OTC). 

Therapeutic Category: 

Gastrointestinal Adsorbent / Antiflatulent / Detoxifying Agent. 

Active Ingredients/Composition:

 Contains 100% Pure Activated Charcoal Powder derived from steam-activated natural sources like coconut shells, hardwoods, and organic vegetative matter. Some regional formulations (such as Dok P) enhance the mix with organic fulvic trace elements. 

Minerals: 

Contains no therapeutic dietary minerals, though certain botanical batches carry natural trace earth minerals from processing. 

Variant: 

Ultra-fine bulk loose powder variant (typically distributed in 50g, 100g, or 250g containers). 

Consume Type: 

Dual-use; safe for oral ingestion (when fully suspended in water) or external topical use (poultice, paste, or face mask). 

Directions/Usage:

• For Digestive Care (Gas, Bloating, Diarrhea): Mix 1 teaspoon of the powder thoroughly into a full glass of water, stir vigorously, and drink immediately. Follow with another full glass of water.
• For External Wound Care/Poultice: Mix the powder with small drops of clean water to form a thick paste. Apply directly onto the skin infection, boil, or insect bite, wrap securely with clean cotton gauze, and replace every 8 hours.
• For Dental/Skin Whitening: Wet a toothbrush or face brush, dip lightly into the powder, apply gently, and rinse completely with copious amounts of water. 

Common Side Effects:

 When taken orally, it causes black-colored stools (harmless and normal). Other side effects include constipation, mild nausea, vomiting, or temporary black staining of the mouth and tongue. 

Package Type:

 Packaged in wide-mouth high-density plastic jars or tightly sealed plastic packets to prevent spillages and moisture ingress.

Storage Advice: 

Store in a cool, dry place. Keep the container tightly capped. Because activated charcoal easily adsorbs odors and vapors from the air, store it far away from volatile household chemicals, perfumes, or fuels. Keep out of reach of children.  

Safety Advice:

• Medication Interaction Warning: Activated charcoal is a non-selective adsorbent; it will bind to and completely deactivate prescription drugs, oral contraceptives, vitamins, and antibiotics if taken together. Always separate oral intake of charcoal from any other medication by a minimum of 2 hours before or 2 hours after.
• Ensure adequate hydration to avoid severe intestinal binding or constipation.
• Emergency Note: Do not attempt to use home-brewed charcoal mixtures to treat severe clinical poisonings or corrosive chemical ingestions (like acids or lye); go to an emergency room immediately. 

Manufacturer/Marketer: 

Marketed and distributed through local pharmaceutical, alternative medicine, and wellness distributors (such as Country Medical Pharmacy networks). 

Country of Origin:

 Primarily sourced and packed in regional hubs like the Philippines (Dok Alternatibo networks) or West African markets like Ghana.
