About Agemax-CTF Softgel Capsule

Agemax-CTF Softgel Capsule belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplements' primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies due to various complications or long-term diseases. A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food. Nutrient deficiency can lead to many health problems like a weakened immune system, skin problems, digestion problems, defective bone growth, and neurological diseases.

Agemax-CTF Softgel Capsule contains Folic acid, L-carnitine L-tartrate, and Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamin). Folic acid (vitamin B9) replenishes the deficient folic acid in the body. It helps in the production of healthy red blood cells and DNA. L-carnitine L-tartrate is an amino acid derivative that helps the body turn fat into energy. Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamin) 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.

These side effects are mild and usually do not require medical attention. However, inform your doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.
