About Mecolet + Capsule

Mecolet + Capsule contains nutritional supplements used to treat neuropathic pain, diabetic neuropathy, alcoholic neuropathy, trigeminal neuralgia, and drug-induced neuropathy. It may also treat sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, muscle pain, low back pain, and cramps. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, and difficulty resting or sleeping.

Mecolet + Capsule consists of four supplements: Alpha-lipoic acid, Folic acid, Mecobalamin and Pyridoxine Hydrochloride. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that prevents oxidative stress, thereby helping to provide a protective effect on the nerve tissues and the brain. Folic acid helps in providing essential nutrients to the nerves. Mecobalamin and Pyridoxine Hydrochloride help rejuvenate and protect damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Together, Mecolet + Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

Take Mecolet + Capsule as recommended. Sometimes, you may experience common side effects such as stomach upset, diarrhoea, sleepiness, nausea, and vomiting. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
