Description
Overview of the medicine
Revital-32 Tablet is a dietary supplement containing a blend of essential vitamins, minerals, and often a botanical extract like ginseng. it is designed to help fill nutritional gaps, boost energy levels, improve immunity, and support overall health and well-being.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
Typically, 1 tablet once daily, preferably after a meal, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Elderly
Same as adult dosage, or as advised by a healthcare professional.
Renal_impairment
Generally safe, but caution advised. Consult a healthcare professional as some minerals may require dose adjustment in severe renal impairment.
How to Take
Oral administration. Swallow the tablet whole with water, preferably with a meal to enhance absorption and minimize gastrointestinal upset.
Mechanism of Action
Provides essential micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) that act as co-factors in various metabolic processes, enzyme functions, and cellular activities. Ginseng may contribute to adaptogenic effects, reducing fatigue and improving cognitive function.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Nutritional benefits are cumulative and generally observed over weeks to months of regular use, rather than an immediate pharmacological effect.
Excretion
Primarily via renal excretion for water-soluble vitamins and minerals. Some minerals are excreted via bile or feces. Fat-soluble vitamins are primarily metabolized and then excreted.
Half life
Highly variable, depending on the specific vitamin or mineral. Water-soluble vitamins have shorter half-lives and are readily excreted, while fat-soluble vitamins and some minerals have longer half-lives and can accumulate.
Absorption
Vitamins and minerals are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, primarily the small intestine, via active transport and passive diffusion mechanisms. Absorption rates vary depending on the specific nutrient, its form, and the presence of other food components.
Metabolism
Vitamins and minerals are metabolized or utilized in various biochemical pathways throughout the body. Excess water-soluble vitamins are generally excreted unchanged or as inactive metabolites.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation
- Hypervitaminosis (excessive levels of certain vitamins)
- Severe kidney or liver disease (consult doctor)
Drug Interactions
Anticoagulants (e.g., Warfarin)
High doses of Vitamin K can reduce the effect of warfarin. High doses of Vitamin E may enhance anticoagulant effect.
Tetracycline and Quinolone antibiotics
Minerals like calcium, iron, zinc can chelate with these antibiotics, reducing their absorption. Take multivitamin several hours apart from these antibiotics.
Thyroid hormones (e.g., Levothyroxine)
Calcium and iron can interfere with absorption. Take several hours apart.
Storage
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, protected from light and moisture. Do not freeze.
Overdose
Acute overdose is rare with typical multivitamin preparations but can occur with very large doses, particularly with fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) and certain minerals (e.g., iron, zinc). Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, fatigue, and headache. In severe cases, liver damage or hypercalcemia may occur. Management involves discontinuation of the supplement and supportive care.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Generally considered safe and beneficial during pregnancy and lactation, especially if specifically formulated for these periods. However, always consult a healthcare professional before taking any supplement during pregnancy or breastfeeding to ensure appropriate dosages and ingredients.
