METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE

About

METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE belongs to the class of multivitamins primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. Nutritional deficiencies occur when the body does not absorb or get enough vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants from food. Nutrient deficiency can lead to many health problems like a weak immune system, indigestion, skin problems, heart problem, eye problems and defective bone growth.

METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE contains methylcobalamin, nicotinamide, and pyridoxine. Methylcobalamine helps regulate body functions like cell growth, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Nicotinamide helps replenish energy in the cells and provides essential nutrients. Pyridoxine is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Collectively, METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE helps to treat nutritional diseases.

Take METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE as recommended. You may experience an upset stomach, diarrhoea, nausea, and dizziness. Most of these side effects of METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not take METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE if you are allergic to methylcobalamin, nicotinamide, pyridoxine or any components present in it. Consult your doctor if you have malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food). Consult your doctor before using METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Nutritional deficiencies

Medicinal Benefits

METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE belongs to the class of 'multivitamins' primarily used to treat and prevent nutritional deficiencies. METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE contains Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12), nicotinamide, and pyridoxine (vitamin B6). Methylcobalamin (Mecobalamin) is a coenzyme form of vitamin B12, which regulates body functions like cell growth, blood formation, and protein synthesis. It is used in the treatment of alcoholic neuropathy, pernicious anaemia (red blood cells are not produced due to Vitamin B12 deficiency), diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to high blood sugar levels), and multiple sclerosis (immune system disease affecting the brain). Nicotinamide is a form of vitamin B that provides vital nutrients. Vitamin B6 treats low levels of Vitamin B6, anaemia (low haemoglobin), and nerve damage (neuritis).

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Nutritional deficiencies: Nutritional deficiencies occur when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food. Many nutrients are essential for a healthy life. Sometimes your body cannot absorb many nutrients even if you are consuming them. Nutrient deficiency can lead to many health problems like the immune system becoming weak, indigestion, skin problems, heart problem, eye problems and defective bone growth.

    FAQs

    METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE contains three essential vitamins, including Methylcobalamin, Pyridoxine, and Nicotinamide. Methylcobalamin, Pyridoxine and Nicotinamide together replenish the body's stores of important nutrients and thereby treat various 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 bananas. If your Vitamin B6 levels are still low, your doctor may recommend supplements.

    Vitamin B12 deficiency is caused when you don't have enough Methylcobalamine or Mecobalmin 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.

    It is important to tell your doctor if you have malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food) since it may be hard to absorb Vitamin B6 through oral administration. Your doctor may recommend other dosage forms in such a case. Inform your doctor if you have eye problems (Leber's optic atrophy), or take levodopa for Parkinson's disease.

    Pyridoxine in METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE may interfere with laboratory tests like urine tests for urobilinogen. Please make sure your doctor and the laboratory staff know that you take METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE+NICOTINAMIDE before undergoing any blood and urine examinations.
