Neuromultivitis for children: instructions for use

Neuromultivitis refers to multivitamin preparations, since several vitamins important for the human body act as its basis.

This medicine is often used in adults with a lack of B vitamins or pathologies of the nervous system. But is it possible to give this medicine to children when it is justified and with what complexes of vitamins can it be replaced?

Neuromultivitis is produced only in solid form, which is a convex round tablets with a white-pink core and a white shell.

One pack includes 20 or 60 tablets, placed in blisters of 20 pieces (one or three blisters per pack).

Their active ingredients are three vitamins from group B:

• B1 in the form of thiamine hydrochloride. Its dosage per tablet is 100 mg.
• B6 as pyridoxine hydrochloride. The amount of such a vitamin in each tablet is 200 mg.
• B12 in the form of cyanocobalamin. Its amount per tablet is 200 mcg.

Since Neuromultivitis is a complex of several vitamins, its effect on the human body is due to the effects characteristic of each of the components of the tablets:

• Vitamin B1 extremely important for a variety of metabolic processes. In the body, it undergoes phosphorylation and becomes a coenzyme involved in various enzyme reactions (such a coenzyme is called cocarboxylase). Without a sufficient amount of such a substance, protein metabolism will be disrupted, as well as carbohydrate and fat metabolism. In addition, vitamin B1 is involved in the transmission of nerve impulses within synapses.

• Vitamin b6 there is also an important influence on the work of the nervous system - both the peripheral and its central part. After phosphorylation, pyridoxine becomes a coenzyme important for the metabolism of amino acids. Without his participation, the main enzymes that act in the nerve tissues will not function. In addition, this vitamin affects the formation of many mediators, including GABA, dopamine, histamine and adrenaline.
• Vitamin B12 important for blood formation processes and affects the maturation of red blood cells. In addition, this substance is involved in many biochemical processes important for life, in particular, in the metabolism of proteins, the formation of amino acids and nucleic acids. After conversion to coenzyme forms, cyanocobalamin affects cell growth and replication.

This tool improves the flow of oxygen to tissues, helps to cope with increased loads and is involved in cellular metabolism.

Since Neuromultivitis has a pronounced effect on the nervous system, the drug is most often used for various neurological pathologies - neuropathies, neuralgia, root syndrome, neuritis, plexitis and other lesions of the nerve plexus or peripheral nerves.

Neuromultivitis is also recommended for patients who have had severe infections or surgery to speed their recovery. Even these pills can be administered with a confirmed deficiency of vitamins that are part of Neuromultivitis.

The instructions for Neuromultivitis, which is inside the pack with the blister, contain information that such tablets are contraindicated in children, since the safety of their effects on the body of young patients has not been studied. Indeed, the doses of vitamin compounds in such a preparation are very high, therefore, it is impossible to give Neuromultivitis to a child of any age without a doctor's prescription.

However, all the vitamins in the composition of the tablets are water-soluble, so they do not accumulate in the body and their overdose is possible only with long-term treatment, so pediatricians, neuropathologists and other specialists can prescribe Neuromultivitis, if such a tool is really required for a child.

The drug is not prescribed to patients who have a hypersensitivity to any of its components - both to the active substances (vitamins), and to the auxiliary ingredients. Adults Neuromultivitis is not recommended either when carrying a child (the drug is allowed for pregnant women only under the supervision of a physician) or when breastfeeding.

Tablets do not recommend drinking at night, as it may stimulate the nervous system, resulting in insomnia. Occasionally, allergic skin reactions may occur while taking Neuromultivitis, and in some patients the tablets provoke tachycardia or nausea. However, such negative effects occur in isolated cases. Most patients take the drug normally.

The drug is advised to take after meals, swallowed pill can be taken with clean water. And a single dosage, and the mode of application, and the duration of treatment for each patient is determined individually.

Buying Neuromulvitita in a pharmacy is possible only after presenting a prescription from a neurologist or other specialist.

The average price of one pack of medicine with 20 tablets is 540-620 rubles, and a pack containing 60 tablets costs from 1,000 to 1,400 rubles.

It is advisable to keep the medication at home in a place where the sun's rays, temperatures above +25 degrees or high humidity will not act on the tablets. In addition, the drug should be placed where it will not reach the small children.

It is unacceptable to give patients Neuromultivitis with an expired shelf life of 3 years by default.

Moms, whose children were prescribed Neuromultivitis by doctors, generally speak well of such a drug. They confirm the high efficacy of this multivitamin medication for diseases of the nervous system.

The positive effect from the use of Neuromultivitis is also noted by physicians, among whom is the popular pediatrician Komarovsky. However, they warn that the uncontrolled use of any drugs in children is unacceptable.
