Haema caps Capsules Clinical pharmacology:
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) : Thiamine (as the coenzyme thiamine yrophos hate) is associated with carbohydrate metabolism, Thiamine pyrophos~halc also acts as a co – enzyme in the direct oxidalive pathway. of glucose metabolism In thiamine deficiency, pyruvic and lactic acids accmulate in the tissues the pyruvate ion is in the biosynthesis of acetylcholine via its conversion to acetyl co-enzyme A, through athiamine dependent process in thimine deficiency therefore there are effects on the central nervous system due either to the effect on acetylcholine synthesis or. to th.e lactatee and pyruvate accumulation, Deficiency of thramine results in 1atlgue, anorexia, gastro-Intesltnatdisturbances, tachycardia, Irritabilily end neuroiogcal symptoms. gross deficiency of thiamine land other Vjtamm B group factor) leads to thecondition beri-beri.
Vitamin B2 (Ribonavine) : Ribflavine is phosphorylated to flavine mononucleotide and flavine adenine dinudeotidc which act as co-enzymes in the repiratory chain and in oxidative phosphorylahon. Riboflavine deficiency presents with ocular symptoms as well as lesions on the lips and at angles of the mouth
Vitamin B6 (pydoxine) : Pyridoxine, once absorbed, is rapidly converted to the co-enzymes pyridoxal phosphate and pyridoxamine phosphate which play an essential rote in protein metabolism. Corwctsons and hypochromic anaemia have occurred in Infants deficient in pyridoxine
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) : Vitamin B12 is present in the body mainly as methylcobalamin and as adeoosylcobalamin and hydroxocobala-min.These act as co-enzymes In the trans methylation Of homocysteine to methionine in the isomerisation of methylmalonyl co enzyme to succinyl co enzymes and with folate in several metabolic pathways respectively
Vitamin C : Vitamin 0 feontates absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus protects egamst muscle, weakness, and is important in
Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) : vitamin C cannot be synthesized by man therefore adietary source is necessary. it acts as a cofactor in numerous biological processes induding the hydroxation of proline to hydroxyproline. In deficiency the formation of collagen is therefore impaired Ascorbic acid IS Important in the hydroxylalion of dopamine to noradrenaline and in hydroxylation occurring In srcod SynthesiS in the adrcuals. Is to reducmg agentn tyrosine metabolism and by acting as an electron donor In the conversion of folic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid scurvy. Features rooUdc swollen inflamed gums, petechial haemoiThrgcs and subcutaneous bn.lIs.ing. The deficiency of collagen leads 10 Le Vitamrn Cs role In rron metabolism
Vitamin D : Vitamin d facilitates absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus protects egaeet muscle, weakness, and is important in prevention and treatments of osteoporosis
Vitamin E : Vitamin e deficiency has been linked to disorders such as cystic fibrosis “here fat absorpbon is impaired. it is essential tor the normal function of the muscular system and the blood
Calcium : calcium is an essential body electrolyte it is involved in the mamtenance of normal muscle and nerve function and essential for normal cardiac runclioo and the dolting of blood Calcium is mamly round in the bones and teeth. Oeficiency of calcium leads to rickets,osteomalaoa In chikiren and osIeoporoSis m the elderly.
Copper : Traces of copper are essenhal to the body as constrtuents of enzyme systems Involved If1 o.odabon reactions.
Manganese :Manganese is aconstituent of enzyme system including those involved in lipid synthesis the tricarboxylic acid cycle and purine and pyrimidine metabolism Taurine : Taurine is an amino acid involved in bile formation Ihe liver converts bile acids into bile salts by conjugabon with Taurine. it helps also in absorotion of fat soluble vitamins
