Indications

This medication is used to treat Age-Related Eye Disease. This is a cutting-edge antioxidant supplement designed to assist the eye's nutritional needs. Essential antioxidant vitamins, minerals, and Lutein are included in the mix.

Pharmacology

When compared to blood, the lens has a high concentration of vitamin C. Long-term use of Vitamin C supplements (10+ years) has been linked to a lower risk of cataracts. Vitamin C plays a crucial function in the scavenging of damaging free radicals.

High serum Vitamin E concentrations have been linked to a lower incidence of cataracts, according to a study (exact mechanism of action is not still established). It also plays a crucial role in the scavenging of damaging free radicals as an antioxidant vitamin.

Lutein is a carotenoid that is found in high concentration in the macula. This caretenoid may protect the macula from oxidative or light damage, according to clinical and animal research.

Although the actual mechanism of action is unknown, one big study indicated that high dietary Lutein levels are linked to a decreased incidence of AMD (Age-Related Macular Degeneration). Zinc is a trace element that is involved in several enzyme systems.

Taste, smell, and wound healing are all altered or missing in people with a less severe impairment. Skin lesions, baldness, diarrhea, increased susceptibility to infection, and failure to thrive are all symptoms of severe insufficiency in children.

Copper is necessary for growth, bone integrity, and nervous system development. It participates in multiple metabolic transformations as a component of different enzymes.

One capsule, one or two times daily or as directed by the physician

Contraindications

It is not recommended for anyone who have had a history of hypersensitivity to any of the substances.

Side Effects

Vitamin C in high dosages has been linked to diarrhoea and other gastrointestinal issues. Large amounts of Vitamin E have been linked to diarrhoea, abdominal pain, and other gastrointestinal issues, as well as exhaustion and lethargy. Abdominal pain and dyspepsia are two side effects of zinc salt.

Pregnancy & Lactation

Pregnancy and lactation are recommended.

Precautions & Warnings

Patients with hyperoxaluria should be given vitamin C with caution. Vitamin E should be given with caution to individuals using oral anticoagulants or oestrogen since it has been reported to counteract the effects of vitamin K, causing an increase in blood clotting time in these patients.
