FAQs

Nuchain-LC Tablet is used to treat nutritional deficiencies, anaemia, folate deficiency, and Vitamin B12 deficiency.
Nuchain-LC Tablet is a vitamin supplement and consists of Folic acid, L-carnitine and Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12). When you lack these vitamins in your body, which cannot be recovered even with the food sources, Nuchain-LC Tablet helps in normalising these deficient levels. Collectively, Nuchain-LC Tablet treats nutritional deficiencies.
Vitamin B12 deficiency is caused when you don't have enough Methylcobalamine 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 to treat the deficiency. If you still have low levels of B12, please consult your doctor for its supplements.
Folate deficiency occurs when your body lacks adequate folic acid/folate levels. You can overcome this deficiency by including food sources rich in folic acid like broccoli, brussels sprouts, leafy green vegetables, cabbage, kale, spring greens, spinach, peas, chickpeas, kidney beans, liver (avoid this during pregnancy) and breakfast cereals fortified with folic acid. If your folic acid levels are still low, your doctor may advise 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 vitamins through oral administration. Your doctor may advise other dosage forms of Nuchain-LC Tablet in such a case.
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.
