Folic acid tablets ip 5mg

Folic Acid 5 MG Tablet is the synthetic version of Folate, which is essential for our body. In case the body cannot produce adequate levels, this medicine is used to make up for the remaining amount. It works by producing purine and pyrimidine, both of which help to manufacture blood and its essential elements. This medicine has other uses apart from creating requisite vitamins in our body. It helps in fighting diseases like liver ailment, anaemia and helps patients of dialysis and alcohol addiction. This medicine, contrary to most others, is very safe for pregnant women and those who plan to get pregnant. They can start consuming it right from the time they plan to conceive. Consumption of this medicine will significantly lower any chances of birth defects. Before you begin taking this medicine, obtain a prescription from your doctor, and disclose your full medical history. Tell them if you are planning to conceive. Also tell them if you have kidney disease, haemolytic and/or pernicious anaemia, any kind of infection, or are addicted to alcohol consumption. They will then adjust your dosage accordingly. • How long is the duration of effect?

Folic Acid Description Folic Acid, N-[ p-[[(2-amino-4- hydroxy-6-pteridinyl) methyl]- amino] benzoyl]-Lglutamic acid, is a B complex vitamin containing a pteridine moiety linked by a methylene bridge to para-aminobenzoic acid, which is joined by a peptide linkage to glutamic acid. Conjugates of Folic Acid are present in a wide variety of foods, particularly liver, kidneys, yeast, and leafy green vegetables. Commercially available Folic Acid is prepared synthetically. Folic Acid, USP occurs as a yellow or yellowish-orange, odorless, crystalline powder. It is very slightly soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. Folic Acid, USP is readily soluble in dilute solutions of alkali hydroxides and carbonates, and solutions of the drug may be prepared with the aid of sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate, thereby forming the soluble sodium salt of Folic Acid (sodium folate). Aqueous solutions of Folic Acid are heat sensitive and rapidly decompose in the presence of light and/or riboflavin; solutions should be stored in a cool place protected from light. The structural formula of Folic Acid is as follows: Related/similar drugs Folic Acid - Clinical Pharmacology Folic Acid acts on megaloblastic bone marrow to produce a normoblastic marrow. In man, an exogenous source of folate is required for nucleoprotein synthesis and the maintenance of normal erythropoiesis. Folic Acid is the precursor of tetrahydroFolic Acid, which is involved as a cofactor for transformylation reactions in the ...
