Uses & Indications
Dosage

One tablet daily, preferably with a meal, or as directed by a physician.
Elderly
One tablet daily, preferably with a meal, or as directed by a physician. No specific dose adjustment is usually required for elderly.
Renal_impairment

How to Take
Take orally with a glass of water, preferably with a meal to enhance absorption and minimize gastrointestinal upset.
Mechanism of Action
Supplies essential nutrients (vitamins and minerals) required for various metabolic processes, cellular functions, and antioxidant defense. Ginseng may contribute to improved energy levels, cognitive function, and immune modulation.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Benefits are typically observed with consistent daily use over several weeks to months.
Excretion
Water-soluble vitamins and their metabolites are primarily excreted via urine. Excess minerals are excreted through urine and feces. Ginseng metabolites are excreted via urine and bile.
Half life
Varies significantly by individual vitamin and mineral. Water-soluble vitamins have shorter half-lives, while fat-soluble vitamins can accumulate.
Absorption
Vitamins and minerals are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, with absorption rates varying depending on the specific nutrient and presence of other food components. Ginseng components (ginsenosides) are also absorbed via the GI tract.
Metabolism
Vitamins and minerals are utilized in various metabolic pathways. Ginseng is metabolized in the liver.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- •Hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation.
- •Hypervitaminosis (excessive levels of vitamins, especially fat-soluble vitamins).
- •Hemochromatosis (iron overload disorder).
Drug Interactions
Thyroid Hormones
Calcium and iron can impair absorption of levothyroxine. Administer several hours apart.
Anticoagulants (e.g., Warfarin)
Vitamin K may interfere with anticoagulant effects. Ginseng may also have antiplatelet effects, increasing bleeding risk.
Tetracycline and Quinolone Antibiotics
Minerals (e.g., Calcium, Iron, Zinc) can chelate these antibiotics, reducing their absorption. Take several hours apart.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
Overdose
Symptoms of overdose may include gastrointestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), headache, and fatigue. Chronic excessive intake of certain vitamins (especially fat-soluble A, D, E, K) or minerals (e.g., iron) can lead to toxicity (hypervitaminosis, iron poisoning). In case of overdose, seek immediate medical attention.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Generally considered safe during pregnancy and lactation when taken at recommended doses, but always consult a healthcare provider before use.
