About Carnimac Plus Tablet 10's

Carnimac Plus Tablet 10's belongs to the class of  'nutritional supplements' primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies due to various complications or long-term disease. It is used to treat and prevent folate deficiency, anaemia (lack of red blood cells), vitamin B12 deficiency, and neurological diseases such as peripheral neuropathy (nerve disorder) and seizures (fits), muscle weakness, heart or liver problems.

Carnimac Plus Tablet 10's contains folic acid, levocarnitine, and methylcobalamin. Folic acid (vitamin B9) replenishes the deficient folic acid in the body.

It works by improving the low levels of carnitine in the body. Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12) regulates body functions like cell growth, blood formation, and protein synthesis. It also prevents nerve damage by forming a protective layer (myelin) around the nerves.
