About DV K Plus Capsule 10's

DV K Plus Capsule 10's belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplements', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food. It could lead to various health problems, including defective bone growth, skin disorders, digestive issues, and dementia (memory loss).

DV K Plus Capsule 10's is a combination of Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), Folic acid, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (vitamin B6), Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12), and Elemental Zinc. Cholecalciferol is a form of Vitamin D and helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. Folic acid is a form of Vitamin B that helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxine hydrochloride is a water-soluble vitamin involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Mecobalamin/Methylcobalamin regulates body functions like cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Elemental Zinc is a mineral that promotes the growth and development of body tissues.

Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. Sometimes, DV K Plus Capsule 10's may have common side effects like numbness/tingling of hands or feet, upset stomach, diarrhoea, and nausea. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.
