Q4LIC Tablet belongs to the class of medications called nutritional supplements primarily used to treat folic acid deficiency in pregnant women. Q4LIC Tablet also treats various conditions such as infertility, anaemia, cardiovascular disease, hyperhomocysteinemia, mild cognitive impairment, and infant and child health development. Folic acid deficiency, often known as folate deficit, is a disorder with insufficient folic acid in the body.

Q4LIC Tablet contains Folic Acid [as (6s)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolic Acid, Glucosamine Salt]. Q4LIC Tablet is structurally similar to the active forms of folic acid. It provides completed folate that the body may use right away without any sort of metabolism. Folic acid is required to develop appropriate cognitive and neurological functions in the fetus and satisfy the mother's increased needs throughout preconception, pregnancy, and nursing.
