Welfol-D3 Tablet 10'S belongs to the class of 'multivitamins', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It is used to treat and prevent low blood calcium levels, vitamin B6 deficiency, folate deficiency, and vitamin B12 deficiency. 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).

Welfol-D3 Tablet 10'S is a combination of Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), Folic acid, Pyridoxine (vitamin B6), and Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12). Cholecalciferol is a steroid hormone produced in the skin when exposed to ultraviolet light or obtained from food sources. It is a form of Vitamin D and helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and the mineralization of bone. Folic acid 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 involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamin/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, Welfol-D3 Tablet 10'S may have common side effects like numbness/tingling of hands or feet, upset stomach, diarrhoea, drowsiness, flushing, and nausea. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.

Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is a water-soluble vitamin that treats and prevents vitamin B6 deficiency, anaemia (lack of red blood cells), peripheral neuropathy (nerve disorder), and seizures (fits). It is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters.  Methylcobalamin regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.
