Nitric Oxide Side Effects

Let's look at Nitric Oxide Supplements for bodybuilders for - as this is very simple.

The only side effects we know of are headaches and nausea. Nothing else has been experienced by us.

But, as when taking any supplement or any drug you should take very carefull note or anything unusual - including the following:-

• Any breathing problems for asthma sufferers
• Rash, hives or itching
• Unexplained swelling
• Diarrhea
• Stomach pains or any bloating

As for when it is taken for medical puposes, we did some research and found the following:

Hematologic (blood study) side effects including methemoglobinemia (which increases the dos of nitric oxide) have been reported with elevated Nitrogen DiOxide (NO2). In one study of infants treated with Nitric Oxide (80 ppm), high levels were found. Discontinuation reduced methemoglobin levels to normal after a few hours.

Cardiovascular side effects including hypertension have also been reported.

Other side effects including withdrawal, sepsis, infection, and cellulitis have been reported. Headaches have been associated with environmental exposure of nitric oxide by hospital staff.

Respiratory side effects including atelectasis (9%) and stridor (5%) have been reported along with Renal side effects including hematuria and hyperglycemia.

So, for the bodybuilder, taking Nitric Oxide Supplements, the issue of side effects is not an issue at all as all side effects (except headache) are related to medical treatments, especially in infants.
