Contraindications:
Pregnancy and lactation. Viscum album containing products should not be used in persons with known allergies to mistletoe, in cases of chronic granulomatous and autoimmune diseases, and in cases of hyperthyroidism with an unbalanced metabolic condition. In acute inflammatory and highly feverish conditions, discontinue treatment until the inflammation and fever have disappeared.

Side effects:
A minor increase of body temperature, localized inflammatory reactions around the site where the subcutaneous injection was given as well as transient insignificant swellings of regional lymph nodes are harmless. Occasionally, veins may respond, presenting inflammatory irritative symptoms. A temporary interruption of the therapy will be necessary in that case. In the presence of an intolerance to mistletoe, there are rare cases where local or general allergic reactions or reactions similar to allergies, such as a generalized itchiness, urticaria, rash, swelling in the face (Quincke’s edema), shivering fits, dyspnea, sudden fall in blood pressure, shock, may occur; such reactions will require a discontinuation of the drug and an immediate medical treatment. In rare cases, an activation of inflammations may occur (eg, chronic sinusitis, apical granulomas).
