Description
Valupak Folic Acid Tablets contain 400 mcg of folic acid, a vital B vitamin essential for cellular growth and metabolism. This supplement is especially important for women who are pregnant or planning to conceive, as it helps reduce the risk of neural tube defects in the developing fetus. Folic acid plays a crucial role in DNA synthesis, repair, and methylation, making it beneficial for overall health and well-being.
Dosage/Direction: The recommended dosage for adults is one tablet (400 mcg) daily, preferably taken with food for optimal absorption. Pregnant women and those trying to conceive may need higher doses as advised by their healthcare provider.
Side Effects: Folic acid is generally well-tolerated, but some users may experience mild gastrointestinal upset, nausea, or allergic reactions. Rarely, excessive intake may mask vitamin B12 deficiency, leading to neurological issues.
