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.

If your Vitamin B6 levels are still low, your doctor may advise its supplements.
