About Nervgum Capsule

Nervgum Capsule belongs to the class of 'Vitamins', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies and neuropathic pain. Nervgum Capsule may be used in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy, drug-induced neuropathy, alcoholic neuropathy, and trigeminal neuralgia. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to damaged sensory nerves. A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food.

Nervgum Capsule is a combination of four drugs: Alpha-lipoic acid (anti-oxidant), folic acid (vitamin), methylcobalamin and pyridoxine (vitamin B6). Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine help in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Alpha-lipoic acid helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Folic acid helps in providing essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, Nervgum Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

Take Nervgum Capsule as prescribed by the doctor. Your doctor will decide the dosage and duration based on your medical condition. Sometimes, Nervgum Capsule may cause common side effects like nausea, stomach upset, and vomiting. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Let your doctor know if you are using prescription/non-prescription drugs, and herbal products before starting Nervgum Capsule . Please inform your doctor if you are known to be allergic to any of the components. Please tell your doctor if you have malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food). If you are a pregnant or breastfeeding mother, please consult your doctor before taking Nervgum Capsule .

Medicinal Benefits

Nervgum Capsule is used to treat nutritional deficiencies and neuropathic pain. It contains Methylcobalamin, Alpha lipoic acid, Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) and Folic acid. Methylcobalamin regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that prevents cell damage and restores vitamin levels in the body. It helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the creation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine also help in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin.  Folic acid helps in the formation of red blood cells, provides essential nutrients to nerves, and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer.
