Folijon Capsule 10's

Folijon Capsule 10's belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplement', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It is used to treat and prevent 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, anaemia, skin disorders, digestive issues, nerve disorders, and dementia (memory loss).

Folijon Capsule 10's contains Docosahexaenoic acid, Folic acid, Pyridoxine and Methylcobalamin. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega fatty acid that controls cholesterol levels and thus improves cardiovascular health. Folic acid, a form of Vitamin B, helps in the formation of red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism, the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin/Mecobalamin/Vitamin B12 regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. 

Your doctor will decide the duration based on your medical condition. Folijon Capsule 10's may cause common side effects like stomach upset, diarrhoea, numbness/tingling, nausea, and vomiting. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult a doctor.

Folijon Capsule 10's is used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It contains Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), Folic acid, Pyridoxine and Methylcobalamin. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) acts as an energy source and reduces the risk of heart diseases by lowering triglycerides and raising good cholesterol levels. Folic acid, a form of Vitamin B, helps in the formation of red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxine helps in cognitive development through the biosynthesis of neurotransmitters and maintains normal homocysteine levels (an amino acid in the blood). Methylcobalamin treats Vitamin B12 deficiency and regulates body functions like cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Collectively, Folijon Capsule 10's treats nutritional deficiencies.
