Nutrivit C 250 

Presentation: Each tablet typically contains 250 mg of Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C). The tablets are intended for oral administration and may be chewable or swallowable, depending on the specific product available in Bangladesh.

Indications: Nutrivit C 250 is indicated for the prevention and treatment of Vitamin C deficiency (scurvy). It is an essential nutrient involved in many bodily functions, including immune system support, collagen synthesis, antioxidant activity, and the absorption of iron. It may be used in individuals with inadequate dietary intake, during periods of increased need such as illness or stress, and to support overall health. It also aids in wound healing and maintaining healthy gums and teeth.

Dosage and Administration: The dosage will vary depending on the age, condition being treated, and the formulation of the tablet. Follow the instructions provided on the product packaging or as directed by a healthcare professional.

• Adults: For routine supplementation, one tablet daily is usually sufficient. For therapeutic use, higher doses may be recommended by a physician.
• Children: Dosage should be determined by a healthcare professional based on age and specific needs.

Chewable tablets should be chewed thoroughly before swallowing. Swallowable tablets should be taken with water. Vitamin C can be taken with or without food.

Side Effects: Generally well-tolerated at recommended doses. High doses (above 2000 mg per day) may potentially lead to gastrointestinal disturbances such as diarrhea, nausea, or abdominal cramps. Other rare side effects may occur.

Precautions: Use with caution in individuals with a history of kidney stones or renal impairment. Diabetic patients should be aware that high doses of Vitamin C may affect blood glucose test results. Individuals with hemochromatosis, thalassemia, or sideroblastic anemia should also exercise caution due to the potential for increased iron absorption.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
