Iodofol Pharmacological properties
Folic acid (vitamin B9) plays an important role in the synthesis of nucleic acids and the conversion of essential amino acids. When folic acid is used before conception and early in pregnancy, the risk of neural tube defects in newborns is reduced.
The need for folic acid salts increases especially during pregnancy due to embryogenesis and the rapid growth of the fetus.
With a lack of folic acid salts, the synthesis of DNA necessary for cell division decreases, as well as the synthesis of certain proteins and lipids. In early pregnancy, this disorder can cause neural tube defects in the newborn. Low blood levels of folate have been found in women who have given birth to babies with a neural tube defect.
The daily requirement of folic acid (folate) for the child population is: for children 12-13 years old – 300 mcg / day, for children 14-17 years old and the adult population 400 mcg / day, for women during pregnancy – 600 mcg / day, women breastfeeding (1-12 months) – 500 mcg / day (order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine dated 03.09.2017 No. 1073)
