About Iron ammonium citrateOral iron preparation, Antianemic,hematinicMechanism of Action of Iron ammonium citrateIron Ammonium Citrate contains 16.5% and 18.5% of iron. It exerts haematinic action by being an essential constituent of haemoglobin. It is necessary for the oxidative process of living tissues. Iron ammonium citrate is given by mouth as a source of iron for iron-deficiency anaemia.Pharmacokinets of Iron ammonium citrateharmaco Kinetic
Absorption: Ferric is converted into Ferrous form and it is absorbed in ferrous form. It is 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.Onset of Action for Iron ammonium citrateN/ADuration of Action for Iron ammonium citrateN/AHalf Life of Iron ammonium citrateN/ASide Effects of Iron ammonium citrate1.Nausea

Schedule of Iron ammonium citrateHStorage Requirements for Iron ammonium citrateStore in a well closed container in a cool dry place. Protect from light.Effects of Missed Dosage of Iron ammonium citrateTake the missed dose as soon as noticed and if it is the time for next dose then skip the missed dose. Continue the regular schedule. Do not double the dose.Effects of Overdose of Iron ammonium citrateTreatment includes immediate support of airway, respiration, and circulation. In conscious patients induce emesis with ipecac; if not empty stomach by gastric lavage. Follow emesis with lavage, using a 1% sodium bicarbonate solution to convert iron to less irritating poorly absorbed form. Take abdominal X-ray to determine presence of excess iron. Deferoxamine may be used for systemic chelation if serum levels of iron exceed 350mg/dl. Calcium
About CalciumCalcium is necessary for cardiac function, muscle contraction, nervous activity, coagulation of blood and for maintaining structural integrity of cell membranes.
Plasma concentration of calcium is kept in normal range by three endocrine factors which control metabolism of calcium. These are (a) Parathyroid hormone, (b) Calcitonin, (c) Vitamin D. Calcium in plasma is bound to albumin, is complexed with anions (e.g. phosphate) and as diffusible ionic calcium. The physiological effects are exerted by ionic calcium. The predominant source of calcium is dairy products and the daily intake varies from 200 - 2500 mg. Adequate calcium intake is particularly important during periods of bone growth in childhood and adolescence and during pregnancy and lactation.
Patients with advanced renal insufficiency exhibit phosphate retention and some degree of hyperphosphataemia. The retention of phosphate plays a pivotal role in causing secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with osteodystrophy and soft tissue calcification. Calcium acetate, when taken with meals, combines with dietary phosphate to form insoluble calcium phosphate which is excreted in the faeces.
Deficiency signs and symptoms: Osteoporosis, pathological fractures, brittle nails and hair.Mechanism of Action of CalciumCalcium is essential for maintaining the functional integrity of nervous, muscular, and skeletal system. It controls excitability of nerves and muscles and regulates permeability of cell membrane. It also regulates cell adhesion and maintains integrity of cell membrane. Calcium acts as intracellular messenger for hormones, autacoids, and transmitters. It is required for excitation-contraction coupling in all types of muscle and excitation-secretion coupling in exocrine and endocrine glands. It is essential for release of transmitters from nerve endings and other release reactions. It is also essential for impulse generation in heart and determines level of automaticity and
A-V conduction. Calcium is also required for blood-coagulation.
Pharmacokinets of CalciumAbsorption: Actively absorbed from gastrointestinal tract in an ionized form; and vitamin D in it`s active form is required for calcium absorption, Distribution: Distributed mainly in to skeletal tissue (99%) and 1% is distributed equally between the intracellular and extra cellular fluid. CSF levels are about half of the serum calcium levels, Metabolism: Not significantly metabolized in the body, Excretion: Excreted mainly through faeces and a small amount is excreted through urine.Onset of Action for CalciumN/ADuration of Action for CalciumN/AHalf Life of CalciumN/ASide Effects of Calcium1.Constipation

About MagnesiumMagnesium is essential for enzyme activity, calcium and potassium uptake, nerve transmission, bone formation and metabolism of carbohydrates and minerals. It is magnesium, not calcium, which helps form hard tooth enamel, resistant to decay. Like calcium and chloride, magnesium also plays a role in regulating the acid-alkaline balance in the body. High magnesium levels in drinking water have been linked to resistance to heart disease. Although it is found in many foods, including dairy products, nuts, vegetables, fish, meat and seafood, deficiencies are common in America due to soil depletion, poor absorption and lack of minerals in drinking water. A diet high in carbohydrates, oxalic acid in foods like raw spinach and phytic acid found in whole grains can cause deficiencies. An excellent source of usable magnesium is beef, chicken or fish broth. High amounts of zinc and vitamin D increase magnesium requirements. Magnesium deficiency can result in coronary heart disease, chronic weight loss, obesity, fatigue, epilepsy and impaired brain function. Chocolate cravings are a sign of magnesium deficiency.Mechanism of Action of MagnesiumN/APharmacokinets of MagnesiumN/AOnset of Action for MagnesiumN/ADuration of Action for MagnesiumN/AHalf Life of MagnesiumN/ASide Effects of MagnesiumN/AContra-indications of MagnesiumN/ASpecial Precautions while taking MagnesiumN/APregnancy Related InformationN/AOld Age Related InformationN/ABreast Feeding Related InformationN/AChildren Related InformationN/AIndications for MagnesiumN/AInteractions for MagnesiumN/ATypical Dosage for MagnesiumN/ASchedule of MagnesiumN/AStorage Requirements for MagnesiumN/AEffects of Missed Dosage of MagnesiumN/AEffects of Overdose of MagnesiumN/AManganese

About ProteinNutrient.Mechanism of Action of ProteinProtein is an essential nutrient for cell maintenance and repair, and regulation of a wide range of bodily functions. Our digestive system breaks down protein to its amino acid constituents. They`re involved in the nervous system, repairing and maintaining tissue such as bones and skin, and bringing energy to cells. Protein is the building block of all life and is essential for the growth of cells and tissue repair. Protein is made up of amino acids.There are 22 amino acids, divided into essential and non-essential amino acids. Essential amino acids must appear in our diet because they cannot be made by the body. The 8 essential amino acids we must eat in our diet include: isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan and valine.Pharmacokinets of ProteinN/AOnset of Action for ProteinN/ADuration of Action for ProteinN/AHalf Life of ProteinN/ASide Effects of ProteinN/AContra-indications of ProteinN/ASpecial Precautions while taking ProteinN/APregnancy Related InformationN/AOld Age Related InformationN/ABreast Feeding Related InformationN/AChildren Related InformationN/AIndications for ProteinN/AInteractions for ProteinN/ATypical Dosage for ProteinN/ASchedule of ProteinN/AStorage Requirements for ProteinN/AEffects of Missed Dosage of ProteinN/AEffects of Overdose of ProteinN/AHome Delivery for Iron ammonium citrate + Calcium + Magnesium + Manganese + Zinc + Protein in Your City
