Description
Overview of the medicine
Allbeevit-M tablet is a comprehensive dietary supplement containing a balanced formulation of essential vitamins and minerals vital for maintaining overall health, supporting immune function, and boosting energy levels.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
One tablet daily, preferably with a meal, or as directed by a physician.
Elderly
One tablet daily, or as directed by a physician. No specific dose adjustment is usually required unless there are specific deficiencies or underlying conditions.
Renal_impairment
Use with caution. Consult a physician, as some minerals (e.g., potassium, phosphorus) may accumulate in severe impairment. Dosage adjustment may be required.
How to Take
For oral administration. Take the tablet whole with a glass of water, preferably with food to enhance absorption and minimize gastrointestinal upset.
Mechanism of Action
The vitamins act as coenzymes in various metabolic pathways, while minerals play crucial roles in physiological functions, bone health, nerve transmission, and enzyme activity. Together, they help prevent and correct nutritional deficiencies.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Nutritional benefits accumulate over time with consistent use. Immediate effects are not typically observed.
Excretion
Water-soluble vitamins and excess minerals are primarily excreted via the kidneys in urine. Fat-soluble vitamins are excreted mainly via bile into feces.
Half life
Variable, depending on the specific vitamin or mineral. Water-soluble vitamins have shorter half-lives than fat-soluble vitamins.
Absorption
Vitamins and minerals are absorbed primarily in the small intestine via various active and passive transport mechanisms. Absorption rates vary depending on the specific nutrient and dietary factors.
Metabolism
Water-soluble vitamins (e.g., B vitamins, C) are not extensively metabolized but are used in metabolic processes. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) are metabolized in the liver. Minerals are generally not metabolized but are incorporated into various body structures and functions.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation.
- Hypervitaminosis A or D.
- Hemochromatosis (due to iron content).
- Severe renal impairment (without medical supervision).
Drug Interactions
Vitamin K
May interact with anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin), potentially reducing their effect. (Note: Allbeevit-M typically has low or no Vitamin K, but general multivitamin caution applies).
Iron-containing products
May reduce the absorption of certain antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones), levothyroxine, and bisphosphonates. Take separately by several hours.
Calcium-containing products
May interact with thyroid hormones and some antibiotics.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C. Protect from light and moisture. Keep in the original packaging.
Overdose
Symptoms of overdose may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, constipation, and diarrhea. Excessive intake of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E) over time can lead to toxicity. Management involves discontinuing the supplement and supportive care. Consult a physician immediately.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Generally considered safe and often recommended during pregnancy and lactation to meet increased nutritional demands, but should be used under medical supervision.
