FERROUS SULPHATE+FOLIC ACID+CYANOCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+NICOTINAMIDE
About
FERROUS SULPHATE+FOLIC ACID+CYANOCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+NICOTINAMIDE belongs to the group of medicines called nutritional supplements used to treat and prevent nutritional deficiencies and iron deficiency anaemia. A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food. Vitamins and minerals are necessary for body development and the prevention of diseases. Iron deficiency anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells for carrying adequate oxygen to various body tissues.
FERROUS SULPHATE+FOLIC ACID+CYANOCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+NICOTINAMIDE contains ferrous sulphate, folic acid, cyanocobalamin, pyridoxine hydrochloride, and nicotinamide. Ferrous sulphate acts as a source of iron which helps in the transportation of oxygen throughout the body and the production of red blood cells. Folic acid helps in forming red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Cyanocobalamin and pyridoxine hydrochloride regulate body functions such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Nicotinamide plays a vital role in converting food into usable energy and helps the body’s cells carry out important chemical reactions. Together, FERROUS SULPHATE+FOLIC ACID+CYANOCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+NICOTINAMIDE helps treat nutritional deficiencies.
