Folimax Plus D3 Tablet belongs to the class of 'multivitamins', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It is used to treat and prevent low blood calcium levels, vitamin B6 deficiency, folate deficiency, and vitamin B12 deficiency. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food. It could lead to various health problems, including defective bone growth, skin disorders, digestive issues, and dementia (memory loss).

Folimax Plus D3 Tablet contains Vitamin D3, Folic acid, Pyridoxine hydrochloride, and Methylcobalamin. Vitamin D3/Cholecalciferol helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. Folic acid helps in the formation of red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxine hydrochloride is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism, the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin/Vitamin B12/Mecobalamin regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.

Folimax Plus D3 Tablet is used to treat nutritional deficiencies and contains Vitamin D3, Folic acid, Pyridoxine hydrochloride, and Methylcobalamin. Vitamin D3 helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. It is used to treat and prevent bone disorders, such as rickets and osteomalacia. Folic acid helps in the formation of red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. It prevents and treats folate deficiency (low blood levels of folate) and hyperhomocysteinemia (high blood levels of amino acid, homocysteine). Pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6) treats and prevents vitamin B6 deficiency, anaemia (lack of red blood cells), peripheral neuropathy (nerve disorder), and seizures (fits). It is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. It is used to treat 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).
