B 29 Tablet 10'S

Introduction About B 29 TABLET

B-29 is a nutritional supplement used in adults and elderly to manage nutritional deficiencies in conditions like diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage occurring over time because of high sugar and fat levels in the blood due to diabetes).

B-29 contains various vitamins and trace elements that helps to reactivate damaged neurons and overcome nutritional deficiencies.

Methylcobalamin and Folic acid takes part in the production of myelin (compound which covers and protect nerve fibres), thus restores the damaged nerve cell, improves the functional recovery of nerves, speed of nerve conduction, and cell multiplication.

Alpha lipoic acid is an antioxidant that reduces oxidative stress, which is considered as a main pathophysiology of diabetic neuropathy development.

Vitamin B6 is essential for human nutrition and aids in a variety of metabolic transformations, and Vitamin D3 promotes the active absorption of calcium and phosphorus by the small intestine, thus helps permit bone mineralization.

Take B-29 exactly as advised by your doctor. Swallow the medicine with a glass of water after meals. Do not take B-29 if you are diagnosed with increased calcium or vitamin D levels in blood or malabsorption syndrome.

B-29 should be used with caution in patients with kidney or heart problems. Ask your doctor before giving this medicine to pregnant women, breastfeeding women or children.
