Neurovit E

Each tablet contains vitamins B1 (thiamine HCl) 100 mg, B6 (pyridoxine HCl) 50 mg, B12 (cyanocobalamin) 100 mcg, E (α-tocopherol acetate) 50 IU.

Prevention and treatment of B1, B6 and B12 deficiencies, also aids in appetite stimulation and promotes proper metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins. It increases resistance to stress and meets nutritional needs for vitamin B1, B6 and B12 of pregnant and lactating mother, elderly and those on special diet.

Vitamin E deficiency develops when the dietary intake is inadequate. In children with cystic fibrosis or biliary atresia, malabsorption of fat may lead to vitamin E deficiency; deficiency may also occur in children with abnormalities of lipid transport, as in abetalipoproteinemia. In previously healthy adults, malabsorption and low intake of vitamin E must continue for a number of years before signs of deficiency appear. The major signs of vitamin E deficiency are the development of myopathic and neurologic disorders.

1-3 tablets a day.

Hypersensitivity.

May reduce the effect of levodopa.

The vitamins contained in vitamin B complex are completely nontoxic even in high doses and usually, no side effects occur. Sensitivity to vitamin B1 however, may sometimes be encountered if administration is at prolonged intervals, irregular or if initial doses are low and suddenly increased. Liver dysfunctions could also predispose patients to hypersensitivity reactions. Nevertheless, it must be stressed that hypersensitivity to vitamin B1 is very rare when given orally.

Vitamin E is usually well tolerated. Large doses may cause diarrhea, abdominal pain and other GI disturbances and have also been reported to cause fatigue and weakness.
