FAQs

Folange Tablet is a vitamin supplement and consists of Folic acid, Pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6) and Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12). When you lack these vitamins in your body, which cannot be recovered even with the food sources, Folange Tablet helps in normalising these deficient levels. Collectively, Folange Tablet treats nutritional deficiencies.

Vitamin B6 deficiency occurs when your body lacks adequate Pyridoxine levels. You can overcome this deficiency by including food sources rich in Pyridoxine like milk, eggs, beef, pork, chicken or turkey, fish, peanuts, soya beans, wheat germ, oats and bananas. If your Vitamin B6 levels are still low, your doctor may prescribe its supplements.

Vitamin B12 deficiency is caused when you don't have enough Methylcobalamin or Mecobalamin levels in your body. You can include natural Vitamin B12 sources like eggs, beef, liver, chicken, trout, salmon, tuna fish, clams, fortified breakfast cereal, low-fat milk, yoghurt, and cheese in your diet for treating the deficiency. If you still have low levels of B12, please consult your doctor for its supplements.

Pyridoxine hydrochloride in Folange Tablet may interfere with laboratory tests like urine test for urobilinogen. Please make sure your doctor knows that you take Folange Tablet if you are undergoing any blood and urine examinations.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and follow your usual dosage.
