Indications & Usage
INDICATIONS: Vitrexyl™ is indicated to provide vitamin supplement to men and women. Folic acid is effective in the treatment of megaloblastic anemias due to a deficiency of folic acid (as may be seen in tropical or nontropical sprue) and in anemias of nutritional origin, pregnancy, infancy, or childhood.
Dosage & Administration
: One (1) Vitrexyl™ caplet daily, between meals or as directed by a physician. Do not administer to children under the age of 12.
Warnings & Precautions
WARNING: Administration of folic acid alone is improper therapy for pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias in which vitamin B12 is deficient.
Contraindications
: This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients.
Adverse Reactions
Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folic acid. Adverse reactions have been reported with specific vitamins and minerals but generally at levels substantially higher than those contained herein. However, allergic and idiosyncratic reactions are possible at lower levels. Iron, even at the usual recommended levels, has been associated with gastrointestinal intolerance in some patients.
Drug Interactions
Vitrexyl™ is not recommended for and should not be given to patients receiving levodopa because the action of levodopa is antagonized by pyridoxine. There is a possibility of increased bleeding due to pyridoxine interaction with anticoagulants (e.g., Aspirin, Heparin or Clopidogrel).
