About LOYFOLATE D TABLETS

LOYFOLATE D TABLETS is used to treat nutritional deficiencies. 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).

LOYFOLATE D TABLETS is a combination of L Methylfolate, Pyridoxal-5-phosphate, Mecobalamin, and Vitamin D3. L Methylfolate helps produce new blood cells and prevents low folate levels.

Mecobalamin/Methylcobalamin/Vitamin B12 regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Vitamin D3/Cholecalciferol helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone.
