Alkemvit-12 Inj (Vial) Vitamin C 150 Mg + Vitamin B12 2500 Mcg + Folic Acid 0.7 Mg + Nicotinamide 12 Mg By Alkem

Composition

Vitamin C 150 mg + Vitamin B12 2500 mcg + Folic Acid 0.7 mg \+ Nicotinamide 12 mg.

This is a vitamin supplement containing vitamin C, vitamin B12, folic acid (vitamin B9), and nicotinamide (vitamin B3).

Uses

It may be prescribed to prevent or treat deficiencies and to support:

- Normal red blood cell formation
- Nerve function
- Energy metabolism
- Immune function
- Collagen formation and wound healing

The vitamin B12 and folic acid components are particularly important for normal blood-cell production and neurological function.

How to Use

Take exactly as recommended by your doctor or according to the product label. It can generally be taken with or without food. Swallow the tablet/capsule with water unless it is a chewable formulation.

Do not take additional high-dose vitamin B12 or folic acid supplements without medical advice unless they are specifically needed.

Precautions & Warnings

Tell your doctor if you have:

- Kidney disease or a history of kidney stones
- A known vitamin B12 or folate deficiency being investigated
- Any blood disorder
- A history of allergy to any ingredient

Importantly, folic acid can improve the anemia associated with vitamin B12 deficiency while allowing neurological damage from B12 deficiency to continue. Therefore, unexplained anemia or suspected B12 deficiency should be medically evaluated rather than treated with folic acid alone.

Possible Side Effects

Generally well tolerated. Possible effects include:

- Nausea
- Stomach discomfort
- Diarrhoea
- Headache

Vitamin C at higher doses can cause gastrointestinal upset and may increase kidney-stone risk in susceptible individuals.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

These vitamins are important nutrients during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but the appropriate dose depends on individual needs. Consult your doctor before using a high-dose supplement, particularly because this contains 2500 mcg of vitamin B12 and 0.7 mg of folic acid.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and use before the expiry date.

Important Safety Information

This product is a nutritional supplement, not an antibiotic or painkiller. Follow the recommended dose and avoid unnecessarily combining it with other multivitamins containing the same ingredients.
