Detailed Information
Introduction
Elmecob D is a nutritional supplement used in adults and elderly to manage nutritional shortages in conditions like diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage occurring over time because of high sugar and fat content in the blood due to diabetes). Elmecob D contains various vitamins and trace elements that helps to reactivate damaged nerve cells and overcome nutritional deficiencies. Alpha lipoic acid is a potent antioxidant that manages neural complications. Vitamin D increases the level of nerve growth factor by stimulating its synthesis and managing its depletion. Pyridoxine is an essential nutrient which is needed for the synthesis of nerve chemicals. Methylcobalamin and folic acid aid in the production of myelin (substance 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. Take Elmecob D exactly as advised by your doctor. Do not take Elmecob D if you have been told that you have increased calcium or vitamin D levels in blood or malabsorption syndrome. Elmecob D should be cautiously used in patients with kidney or heart problems. Ask your doctor before giving Elmecob D to pregnant women, breastfeeding women or children.
