About Tayo Total Tablet

Tayo Total Tablet belongs to the class of 'multivitamins', primarily 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).

Tayo Total Tablet is a combination of Calcium carbonate, Vitamin D3, L Methylfolate, Pyridoxal-5-phosphate, and Methylcobalamin. Calcium carbonate makes the bones stronger by increasing their density. It helps in treating and preventing low calcium levels.

Pyridoxine is a water-soluble vitamin 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.
