Indications
Ad – All is used to treat and prevent deficiencies of zinc, iron, folic acid, B-vitamins, and vitamin C, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Pharmacology
Zinc sulfate helps in protein formation and has mild antiseptic and vasodilation effects. Ad – All can be used as a supplement, and 220 mg of zinc sulfate provides 50 mg of elemental zinc.
Iron is crucial for producing red blood cells that carry oxygen throughout the body. A lack of iron can cause iron deficiency anemia. Liver is a good source of iron, but pregnant women should avoid Ad – All due to high vitamin A levels that can harm the baby.
Folic acid is important for making coenzymes involved in various body functions, including the production of red blood cells and maintaining a healthy immune system.
Nicotinamide (Vitamin B3) helps in multiple metabolic pathways in the body by being part of essential coenzymes.
Vitamin C is necessary for building collagen, repairing tissues, and is involved in many metabolic processes, including converting folic acid into its active form.
Vitamin B complex is essential for maintaining cell health, energy levels, and various bodily functions. Different types of vitamin B come from various foods, and deficiencies can lead to health problems.
