Description
Overview of the medicine
Supreno-75-mg-syrup is a comprehensive nutritional supplement formulated to stimulate appetite and correct various nutritional deficiencies. It contains a blend of essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids crucial for growth, development, and overall well-being. It is particularly useful for individuals experiencing poor appetite, general weakness, and during convalescence.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
10 mL (2 teaspoonfuls) 2-3 times daily, or as directed by the physician.
Elderly
No specific dose adjustment is usually required, but consult a physician.
Renal_impairment
Use with caution in severe renal impairment; consult a physician.
How to Take
Supreno-75-mg-syrup should be taken orally, preferably after meals to enhance absorption and minimize gastrointestinal upset.
Mechanism of Action
The mechanism of action involves providing essential micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and building blocks (amino acids) necessary for metabolic processes, tissue repair, and energy production. Certain components may directly or indirectly influence neurochemical pathways related to appetite regulation, leading to increased food intake and improved nutritional status.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Nutritional benefits accumulate over days to weeks with regular use. Appetite stimulation might be noticeable within a few days.
Excretion
Water-soluble vitamins and excess minerals are primarily excreted renally. Fat-soluble vitamins are excreted via bile after metabolism.
Half life
Variable, depending on the specific nutrient; water-soluble vitamins have shorter half-lives, while fat-soluble vitamins can be stored.
Absorption
Vitamins, minerals, and amino acids are absorbed primarily from the small intestine through various active and passive transport mechanisms. The absorption rate varies depending on the specific nutrient and presence of other dietary factors.
Metabolism
Vitamins and amino acids are metabolized via various biochemical pathways as part of normal physiological processes. Minerals are generally not metabolized but are utilized or excreted.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to any component of the syrup
- Severe liver disease (due to certain vitamin metabolism)
- Iron overload conditions (if iron is a component)
Drug Interactions
Levodopa
Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) can reduce the efficacy of levodopa in some Parkinson's patients if not co-administered with a decarboxylase inhibitor.
Tetracycline antibiotics
Minerals (e.g., calcium, iron, zinc) can chelate with tetracyclines, reducing their absorption. Administer at least 2 hours apart.
Storage
Store in a cool and dry place, below 30°C. Protect from light. Keep out of reach of children.
Overdose
Overdose is rare with standard nutritional supplements but can lead to hypervitaminosis (especially fat-soluble vitamins) or mineral toxicity. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, fatigue, and specific organ damage depending on the nutrient. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive; discontinue use and seek medical attention.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Generally considered safe for use during pregnancy and lactation within recommended doses to meet increased nutritional demands. However, consult a doctor before use.
