About ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+FOLIC ACID+METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+THIAMINE
METHYLCOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE+THIAMINE+FOLIC ACID belongs to the class of 'Vitamins', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. METHYLCOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE+THIAMINE+FOLIC ACID effectively treats various conditions caused due to lack of vitamins, such as folate, vitamin B1, B6, and B12 deficiencies. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food.
METHYLCOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE+THIAMINE+FOLIC ACID contains Alpha lipoic acid, Folic acid, Pyridoxine, Thiamine, and Methylcobalamin. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that prevents cell damage and restores vitamin levels in the body. Folic acid is the synthetic form of folate, a water-soluble Vitamin B naturally found in food sources. It helps in the formation of red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is a water-soluble vitamin that regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Thiamine (vitamin B1) helps generate energy for the body from nutrients and aids in the growth and development of body cells. Methylcobalamin (Mecobalamin), a form of vitamin B12, regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.
Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. Sometimes, METHYLCOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE+THIAMINE+FOLIC ACID may have common side effects like nausea, stomach upset, and rash. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.
