Description of a dosage form
Dragee, coated (vitamins) of red color: round, biconvex, coated red color.
Dragee, coated (minerals) of blue color: round, biconvex, coated blue color.
Pharmacological properties:
Pharmacodynamics. The combined drug containing a complex of 11 vitamins and 8 minerals which are important factors of metabolic processes.
Vitamins and minerals contain one red and one blue dragee in the quantities satisfying daily requirements of an organism. For the best assimilation of a vitamin and mineral complex and preservation of activity of the main components, vitamins and minerals are divided in a dragee of different color. Vitamins contain in a dragee of red color, minerals — in a dragee of blue color.
Vitamin A participates in synthesis of various substances (proteins, lipids, mucopolysaccharides) and provides normal function of skin, mucous membranes, and also an organ of sight.
D3 vitamin plays an important role in maintenance of balance of calcium and phosphorus in an organism. At its lack of a bone tissue the content of calcium decreases (osteoporosis).
B1 vitamin normalizes action of the heart and promotes normal functioning of a nervous system.
B2 vitamin promotes processes of an angenesis, including skin cells.
B6 vitamin promotes maintenance of structure and function of bones, teeth, gums; exerts impact on an erythrogenesis, promotes normal functioning of a nervous system.
B12 vitamin participates in an erythrogenesis, promotes normal functioning of a nervous system.
Vitamins of group B participate in formation of various enzymes which regulate different types of a metabolism in an organism.
Folic acid stimulates an erythrogenesis.
Vitamin E is natural antioxidant. It prevents the increased coagulability of blood and favorably influences peripheric circulation. Participates in protein synthesis and hemoglobin, process of growth of cells, functioning of skeletal muscles, heart and vessels, gonads.
Vitamin C participates in oxidation of a number of biologically active agents, regulation of exchange in connecting fabric, carbohydrate metabolism, coagulability of blood and an angenesis, stimulates formation of steroid hormones, normalizes permeability of capillaries. Vitamin C increases resistance of an organism to infections, reduces inflammatory reactions.
Calcium participates in formation of a bone tissue, coagulability of blood, transfer of nervous impulses, reduction of skeletal and unstriated muscles, normal cardiac performance. It also promotes iron absorption.
Magnesium participates in formation of muscular and bone fabrics, and also takes part in protein synthesis.
Iron is a part of a molecule of hemoglobin, participates in transfer of oxygen in an organism and prevents development of anemia.
Phosphorus, along with calcium, participates in formation of bones and teeth, and also participates in processes of energy balance.
Manganese promotes a mineralization of bones.
Copper is necessary for normal function of erythrocytes and exchange of iron.
Zinc is necessary for an angenesis, is a part of some hormones, including insulin.
