pharmachologic effect

Replenishment of lack of vitamins and minerals.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

Vitrum Century refers to a group of drugs called multivitamins or multivitamin preparations. Contains in the composition of all vitamins and minerals in doses required for the elderly after 50 years. Increases the resistance to diseases common at this age, increases physical and mental performance. Reduces the risk of oncological and cardiac diseases, prevents premature aging.
    Vitamins A, E, C, beta-carotene, selenium, zinc, copper and manganese are antioxidants and protect cell elements, including chromosomes, from damage by oxygen radicals.
    Vitamin A in the elderly is responsible for T- and B-cell immunity, and also promotes the acceleration of the synthesis of cytokines. Retinoic acid supports the activity of killer cells, which play a major role in antiviral and anticancer protection.
    Betakarotene is used in the body to build vitamin A molecules, prevents damage to cell membranes by products of lipid peroxidation.
    Ascorbic acid - a powerful antioxidant, increases the nonspecific resistance of the body.
    Vitamin E is also a strong antioxidant, used in the biosynthesis of hemoglobin and proteins, affects the state of the vessels.
    Selenium is converted in the body into glutadione peroxidase, which protects cells and tissues from organic hydroperoxides.
    Vitamins B1, B2 and B6 play an important role in the normalization of protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism.
    Vitamin B1 promotes the proper functioning of the biochemical processes of the nervous, endocrine and cardiovascular systems.
    Vitamin B2 is a component of flavin enzymes that provide tissue respiration and the formation of ATP molecules in cells, as well as numerous energetically high-cost oxidation-reduction processes.
    Vitamin B6 is involved in the metabolism of glycogen, amino acids, sphingoid bases and production of neurotransmitters.
    Nicotinamide is an integral part of proteins dehydrogenases that transport hydrogen ions in cells.
    Pantothenic acid is involved in the processes of endothelial regeneration and the exchange of fatty acids.
    Vitamin B12 is needed for the production of nucleotides and the exchange of fatty acids, the passage of methylation processes in cells. Together with folic acid, it plays an important role in maintaining hematologic and neurological homeostasis.
    Folic acid is a coenzyme of molecules responsible for the synthesis and destruction of amino acids and nucleic acids. The use of the necessary amount of folic acid is the prevention of a number of oncological diseases, in particular, cancer of the colon and rectum, lungs, esophagus, stomach.
    Vitamin K1 is used to prevent osteoporosis, has anti-sclerotic and anti-inflammatory effect, regulates blood glucose level, improves clinical picture of Alzheimer's disease.
    Vitamin D, copper, calcium, magnesium, manganese, zinc and boron play an important role in the prevention of osteoporosis (brittle bones).
    Iodine is an important component of thyroid hormones that support the proper functioning of many metabolic processes, maintaining immunity.
    Iron is a part of hemoglobin that carries oxygen to organs and tissues and cellular respiration, and many other proteins (myoglobin, flavoproteins, transferrin, lactoferrin, hemosiderin). Improves appetite, stimulates recovery and recovery.
    Molybdenum is involved in the construction of molecules of sulfitokinase, xanthoxidase and aldehyde oxidase, responsible for the destruction of some amino acids and heterocyclic bases (purines and pyrimidines). These processes are reflected in the neurological status of the body.
    Chromium strengthens the action of insulin.
    Nickel in the composition of special proteins regulates the exchange of iron.
    Silicon is a building material for bones and collagen.

The Vitrum Century Forte also contains:

    lutein - prevents loss of vision and improves its acuity;
    the powder of the leaves of the plant Ginkgo Biloba is a proven tool that increases cognitive functions (memory, expense, attention and others) in the elderly;
    tin - improves the recovery process, regulates the activity of flavin enzymes, an integral part of the gastrin molecule.

Indications for use

Prevention and treatment of a shortage of vitamins and minerals in the elderly, including:
    during mental and physical exertion;
    during treatment and rehabilitation of the transferred diseases;
    with an unbalanced diet.

Contraindications

Side effects

    On the part of the immunity system: hypersensitivity reactions are possible, including anaphylaxis, Quincke's edema, fever in people with allergies.
    From the skin: rash, hives, redness of the skin, itching.
    From the gastrointestinal tract: nausea, dyspeptic disorders, abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, constipation, increased acidity of gastric juice, heartburn.
    From the central nervous system: dizziness, headache, excitability, drowsiness.
With long-term admission in large doses, there may be: irritation of the mucosa of the digestive tract, hypercalcemia, paresthesia, hyperuricemia, hyperglycemia, renal dysfunction, temporary increase in the activity of liver enzymes and alkaline phosphatase, dry skin, seborrhoeic rash, hair loss.

The instruction for Vitrum Century

Instructions for use Vitrum Century Forte does not differ from the instructions for Vitrum Century and prescribes oral intake of 1 tablet a day after meals. The course of treatment with the drug is 3 months. On the appointment of a doctor, repeated courses can be conducted.

Treatment of an overdose: gastric lavage, symptomatic therapy.

Interaction

Since Vitrum Century contains iron and calcium in the corresponding parts of the digestive system, the absorption of antibiotics of the tetracycline group and fluoroquinolones can decrease. Ascorbic acid enhances the effects of sulfonamides. Antacids, including magnesium, aluminum, calcium, reduce the absorption of iron. Preparations of iron and silver reduce the bioavailability of Vitamin E. Folic acid activates the metabolism of phenytoin.
