Description
Overview of the medicine
Nutrifil Gold Syrup is a comprehensive multivitamin and multimineral supplement designed to support overall health, boost immunity, and fulfill daily nutritional requirements.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
10 ml (2 teaspoonfuls) once daily or as directed by a physician.
Elderly
Same as adult dosage, or adjust based on individual nutritional status.
Renal_impairment
Use with caution; consult a physician for specific guidance due to potential mineral accumulation.
How to Take
Take orally, preferably after a meal to enhance absorption and reduce gastric upset.
Mechanism of Action
Provides essential vitamins and minerals crucial for various metabolic processes, enzyme functions, and cellular activities, thereby promoting optimal body function and preventing deficiencies.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Nutritional benefits are gradual and cumulative, typically observed over weeks to months of regular use.
Excretion
Water-soluble vitamins and excess minerals are excreted primarily via the kidneys; fat-soluble vitamins are primarily excreted through bile and feces.
Half life
Variable depending on the specific vitamin or mineral; water-soluble vitamins have shorter half-lives, while fat-soluble vitamins can be stored.
Absorption
Vitamins and minerals are absorbed primarily in the small intestine via active transport and passive diffusion, with absorption rates varying by nutrient.
Metabolism
Each component undergoes specific metabolic pathways; water-soluble vitamins are generally not extensively metabolized before excretion, while fat-soluble vitamins are metabolized in the liver.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to any component of the syrup.
- Hypervitaminosis (excessive levels of specific vitamins, e.g., Vitamin A or D).
- Severe renal impairment (for certain minerals).
Drug Interactions
Thiazide diuretics
May increase serum calcium levels.
Tetracyclines/Quinolones
Minerals like calcium, iron, and zinc can chelate with these antibiotics, reducing their absorption. Administer at least 2 hours apart.
Anticoagulants (e.g., Warfarin)
High doses of Vitamin K can reduce the effect of anticoagulants. Use with caution.
Storage
Store below 30°C in a dry place, protected from light. Do not freeze.
Overdose
Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, headache, and hypervitaminosis (especially fat-soluble vitamins). In case of suspected overdose, seek immediate medical attention. Management is supportive.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Generally considered safe and beneficial at recommended doses for pregnant and lactating women, as it helps meet increased nutritional demands. However, consult a physician.
