ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN+FOLIC ACID+IRON+MECOBALAMIN

About

ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN+FOLIC ACID+IRON+MECOBALAMIN belongs to the class of 'multivitamins' primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies due to various complications or long-term diseases. It is used to treat and prevent folic acid (vitamin B9) deficiency, anaemia (lack of red blood cells), peripheral neuropathy (nerve disorder), neural tube defects (birth defects) like spina bifida (a spinal cord defect), and anencephaly (a brain defect) and hyperhomocysteinemia (high levels of homocysteine in the blood).

ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN+FOLIC ACID+IRON+MECOBALAMIN is a combination of four drugs, namely, Adenosylcobalamin, Folic acid, Iron and Mecobalamin. Adenosylcobalamin and Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamine) is a coenzyme form of vitamin B12 which regulates body functions like cell growth, blood formation, and protein synthesis. It is used in the treatment of alcoholic neuropathy, pernicious anaemia (red blood cells are not produced due to Vitamin B12 deficiency), diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to high blood sugar levels), and multiple sclerosis (immune system disease affecting the brain). Folic acid is a vitamin B that helps the body make more red blood cells and helps the red blood cells carry out more oxygenated blood to other tissues of the body. Iron is an important mineral in the body required by red blood cells to carry oxygen to other body cells and tissues.

Take ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN+FOLIC ACID+IRON+MECOBALAMIN as recommended by your doctor. You may experience constipation, dry mouth, loss of appetite, bloating, diarrhea in some cases.

Medicinal Benefits

ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN+FOLIC ACID+IRON+MECOBALAMIN is a combination of four drugs, namely; Adenosylcobalamin, Folic acid, Iron and Mecobalamin. Adenosylcobalamin and Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamine) is a coenzyme form of vitamin B12 which regulates body functions like cell growth, blood formation, and protein synthesis. It is used in the treatment of alcoholic neuropathy, pernicious anaemia (red blood cells are not produced due to Vitamin B12 deficiency), diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to high blood sugar levels), and multiple sclerosis (immune system disease affecting the brain). Folic acid (vitamin B9) is a water-soluble vitamin that treats and prevents vitamin B9 deficiency, anaemia (lack of red blood cells), neural tube defects, cleft palate (birth defects), anaemia caused by faulty development of red blood cells such as after stomach surgery or during pregnancy, Coeliac disease (the body cannot digest gluten), and tropical and non-tropical Sprue (the gut cannot absorb food). Iron is an important mineral in the body required by red blood cells to carry oxygen to other body cells and tissues. By combining with a protein called haemoglobin, it helps in attracting oxygen in the lugs. In combination,  ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN+FOLIC ACID+IRON+MECOBALAMIN works by boosting red blood cells (RBC) and haemoglobin (Hb) in the body, with a sufficient supply of oxygen to body cells.

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Anaemia: It is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells for carrying adequate oxygen to various body tissues. Anaemia can be temporary, which can be treated with the help of supplements, and it can also be long-term, which might require medical procedures. It makes you feel tired very quickly due to a lack of oxygen supply in the body. It is one of the most common blood disorders.

    Folic acid deficiency: It is the lack of vitamin B9 or folic acid in the body. Folic acid is essential for the formation of red blood cells. Symptoms of folic acid deficiency include mouth sores and fatigue. 

    Vitamin B12 deficiency: When your body doesn't have adequate mineral levels called vitamin B12 and low haemoglobin required for red blood cells formation. Signs and symptoms of low vitamin B12 include fatigue, breathlessness, numbness, poor balance and memory trouble.
