Iron (Ferrous glycine sulphate)

About Iron (Ferrous glycine sulphate)
Oral iron preparation, An iron-containing salt, Antianemic,hematinic
Mechanism of Action of Iron (Ferrous glycine sulphate)
Ferrous glycine sulfate is a chelate of ferrous sulfate and glycine used as a source of iron for iron-deficiency anaemia. It is given by mouth in doses containing the equivalent of up to 150 mg of iron daily. It exerts haematinic action by being an essential constituent of haemoglobin. It is necessary for the oxidative process of living tissues.
It has relatively high bioavailability in the presence of dietary inhibitors. Chelates prevent iron from binding to inhibitors in food or precipitating as insoluble ferric hydroxide in the pH of the small intestine.
Pharmacokinets of Iron (Ferrous glycine sulphate)
Absorption: Absorbed orally in ferrous form and poorly absorbed in healthy individuals (about 10%) but in patients suffering from iron deficiency anaemia up to 60% dose is absorbed. Distribution: Transported in a transferrin bound form in to bone marrow for incorporation in to haemoglobin. Metabolism: Iron liberated by destruction of haemoglobin is reused by the body. Excretion: Excretion of iron is minimal. Loss usually occurs in nails, faeces, urine, hair, sweat, and bile.

Vitamin C

About Vitamin C
Water soluble vitamin, antioxidant.
Mechanism of Action of Vitamin C
Vitamin C exerts it`s action by influencing the biologic oxidations and reductions used in cellular respirations. It directly stimulates collagen synthesis and maintains intracellular connective tissue. It involves in various metabolic reactions such as 1).Hydroxylation of praline and lysine residues of protocollagen which is essential for formation and stabilization of collagen triple helix, 2).hydroxylation of carnitine, 3).Conversion of folic acid to folinic acid, 4).biosynthesis of adrenal steroids, catecholamines, oxytocin, and ADH, 5).Metabolism of cyclic nucleotides and prostaglandins. Vitamin C is important in resistance to infections.
Pharmacokinets of Vitamin C
Absorption: Well absorbed orally.
Distribution: Widely distributed both extracellularly and intracellularly, It crosses the placenta and also distributed in to the breast milk.
Metabolism: Metabolized in the liver; partly oxidized in to active dehydroascorbic acid and inactive metabolites.

Zinc

About Zinc
Trance metal, Dietary mineral, Nutritional supplement,Treatment of zinc deficiency,in wound healing.
Mechanism of Action of Zinc
Zinc acts as a cofactor for more than 70 different enzymes. Zinc dependent enzymes are involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Zinc facilitates wound healing, normal growth rates, normal skin hydration and maintains senses of taste and smell. It provides normal growth and tissue repair. It also helps in development of cell mediated immunity.

Amino acids

About Amino acids
An amino acid is any molecule that contains both amine and carboxyl functional groups. These amino acids are the basic components of proteins. There are twenty standard amino acids used by cells in protein biosynthesis that are specified by the general genetic code.
Amino acids are joined to each other by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is a chemical bond formed between two molecules (carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule), releasing a molecule of water (H2O). The resulting CO-NH bond is called a peptide bond, the chemical bond that links the amino acid monomers in a protein chain. Each protein has its own unique amino acid sequence that is known as its primary structure. Amino acids can be linked together in varying sequences to form a huge variety of proteins. The unique shape of each protein determines its function in the body.
Aminoacids are of 2 types, essential and nonessential. Essential amino acids are the ones that must be obtained in the diet and non-essential are synthesized within the body
Essential aminoacids: Methionine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Valine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Phenylalanine, Histidine,
Nonessential aminoacids: Alanine, Asparagine, Aspartic acids, Proline, Glutamic acid, Glutamine, Serine
Amino acids Arginine, Cysteine, Glycine and Tyrosine are considered conditionally essential, meaning they are not normally required in the diet, but must be supplied exogenously to specific populations that do not synthesize it in adequate amounts
Histidine and Arginine are generally only considered essential in children, because the metabolic pathways that synthesize these amino acids are not fully developed in children.
Nutritional role of aminoacids: Aminoacids have been used orally or in relatively dilute solutions intravenously as supplementary nutrients for patients unable to metabolize intact protein adequately. For patients in whom oral or tube feeding is contraindicated or Inadequate good nutrition may be achieved or maintained by intravenous feeding known as total parenteral nutrition or intravenous or parenteral hyperalimentation. Such feeding provides essential nutrients in a sufficiently concentrated form that does not exceed normal daily fluid requirements.
