Multi-tabs® Classic
A combined preparation containing a complex of vitamins and minerals.
The action is determined by the properties of the components that make up the drug.
Vitamin A (retinol)
Vitamin A is involved in the formation of the skeleton and is necessary for the construction of epithelial tissue. Plays a role in the formation of the immune system, increases the body's resistance to various infections. With vitamin A deficiency, dark adaptation disorder (twilight vision) occurs. It is an essential component of the body's antioxidant defense.
Vitamin D 3
(colecalciferol)
Maintains the level of inorganic phosphorus and calcium in the plasma and increases the absorption of calcium in the small intestine, preventing the development of diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)
Plays an important role in the formation of a protein called collagen, which makes up a significant part of the material of connective tissues, bones, cartilage, teeth and skin. It is important for the functioning of immunocompetent blood cells and helps increase the body's resistance to various infections. Ascorbic acid promotes the absorption of inorganic iron from the digestive tract. Improves lipid metabolism, helping to normalize cholesterol metabolism. In addition, it has antioxidant properties.
Vitamin E (alpha tocopherol)
As an antioxidant, it inhibits the development of free radical reactions, prevents the formation of peroxides that damage cellular and subcellular membranes, which is important for the functioning of the body, the normal function of the nervous and muscular systems. Together with selenium, it inhibits the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids (a component of the microsomal electron transfer system) and prevents hemolysis of red blood cells. It is a cofactor of some enzyme systems.
Vitamin B1 (thiamine)
One of the most important vitamins in energy metabolism. It is a necessary component of carbohydrate metabolism as an integral part of the coenzyme for the decarboxylation of keto acids; also plays an important role in protein and fat metabolism, and influences the conduction of nervous excitation in cholinergic synapses.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)
Participates in the utilization of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Vitamin B 2
regulates the state of the central and peripheral nervous system, has a positive effect on vision. Has a metabolic effect; regulating redox processes, takes part in tissue respiration.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
Participates in the synthesis of nucleic acids, regulates phosphorus-calcium metabolism, improves liver function, and participates in hematopoiesis. Essential for the normal function of the central and peripheral nervous system.
Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin)
Necessary for the normal functioning of the nervous system, improves concentration and memory. Stimulates erythropoiesis.
Nicotinamide
Participates in redox processes in the cell, stabilizes tissue respiration processes. Plays a role in fat and carbohydrate metabolism and amino acid metabolism.
Pantothenic Acid (as Calcium Pantothenate)
Pantothenic acid is part of coenzyme A, playing an important role in the processes of acetylation and oxidation, participates in carbohydrate and fat metabolism, in the synthesis of acetylcholine and steroid hormones. Improves energy supply to the contractile function of the myocardium, accelerates regeneration processes.
Folic acid
Participates in various metabolic processes. Necessary for the maturation of megaloblasts and the formation of normoblasts. Stimulates erythropoiesis, participates in the synthesis of amino acids (including glycine, methionine), nucleic acids, purines, pyrimidines, in the metabolism of choline, histidine.
Magnesium
It is of great importance in regulating contractile function and ensuring the electrical stability of myocardial cells. Participates in the synthesis of neuropeptides in the brain and is responsible for transmitting inhibitory signals to peripheral nerves and muscles.
Iron
Participates in hematopoiesis processes.
Zinc
When combined with iron, it additionally stimulates hematopoiesis. It is part of a large number of enzymes in the body. Zinc deficiency is associated with short stature, decreased immunity, and increased morbidity.
Copper
Participates in the formation of hemoglobin and red blood cells, in energy exchange processes
Manganese
Manganese stimulates the synthesis of immunoglobulins and is also a component of superoxide dismutase, which plays an important role in protecting the body from the harmful effects of peroxide radicals
Chromium
Participates in the process of insulin synthesis. Stabilizes cell membranes, interacts with reactive oxygen species and free radicals. Reduces the amount of lipid peroxidation products.
Selenium
Selenium is part of the enzyme system - glutathione peroxidase, which protects biological membranes from the damaging effects of free radicals.
Iodine
One of the main functions of iodine is its participation in the formation of thyroid hormones (thyroxine, triiodothyronine). Thyroid hormones, which are based on iodine, perform vital functions: they regulate the activity of the brain, nervous system, reproductive and mammary glands, growth and development of the body.
