Pharmacological properties
Multivitamin drug. Refers to drugs that regulate metabolic processes. Normalizes metabolism, including during aging processes.
The pharmacological action of the drug is due to the active substances that make up its composition.
- Vitamin A (retinol) plays a key role in the synthesis of enzyme proteins and structural components of tissues, is necessary for the formation of epithelial cells, bones and the synthesis of rhodopsin (visual pigment), supports the division of immunocompetent cells, normal synthesis of immunoglobulins and other infection protection factors.
- Vitamin E (α-tocopherol acetate) is a fat-soluble vitamin that exhibits a high antioxidant and radioprotective effect, protects cell membranes from damage by free radicals, takes part in the biosynthesis of heme and proteins, cell proliferation and other important processes of cellular metabolism. Vitamin E improves tissue oxygen consumption. It exhibits an angioprotective effect, affecting the tone and permeability of blood vessels, stimulating the formation of new capillaries.
- Vitamin B1 (thiamine hydrochloride) is an important coenzyme in the metabolism of carbohydrates and is involved in the functioning of the nervous system.
- Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is an important catalyst for cellular respiration and visual perception.
- Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride) as a coenzyme takes part in protein metabolism and the synthesis of neurotransmitters.
- Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) is a growth factor, necessary for the normal course of hematopoiesis and maturation of erythrocytes, takes part in the synthesis of amino acids, nucleic acids and myelin.
- Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) takes part in the redox processes of the body, the synthesis of hemoglobin, affects the metabolism of amino acids, accelerates the absorption of iron from the gastrointestinal tract, increases the nonspecific resistance of the body, is necessary for the growth and formation of bones, skin, teeth and for normal functioning of the nervous and immune systems.
- Vitamin PP (nicotinamide) takes part in the processes of tissue respiration, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
- Folic acid stimulates erythropoiesis, takes part in the synthesis of amino acids, nucleic acids.
- Rutin normalizes capillary permeability, strengthens vascular walls, reduces platelet aggregation, exhibits antioxidant properties, prevents oxidation and promotes the deposition of ascorbic acid in tissues.
- Calcium pantothenate is part of coenzyme A, is necessary for the normal formation of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the synthesis of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the production of hormones and antibodies, the synthesis of acetylcholine, the absorption of potassium ions, glucose, and vitamin E from the intestine.
