Precautions:

For external use only. Do not allow children to use or handle this device without adult supervision. Do

not operate potentially dangerous machinery or vehicles during, and in some cases, for several hours after treatment.

Caution is advised in cases where other forms of analgesia (pain control) would not be used; such as to retain the

beneficial aspects of pain for diagnosis or in cases where people may overuse pain-controlled areas. Safety of

stimulation has not been established during pregnancy.

Adverse Effects:

Adverse effects are usually mild and self-limiting. Adverse effects from approximately 4,541

patients participating in controlled, open, uncontrolled research, and by physician survey are skin irritation/electrode

burns (5 cases, 0.11%), and headaches (9 cases, 0.20%).

If the Alpha-Stim® PPM does not control your pain within 3 weeks, consult your physician.
