About Iron (Carbonyl Iron)A highly pure, nontoxic Iron(a minimum 98% iron content), Iron dietary supplement and to treat iron deficiency.Mechanism of Action of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)Iron formulations exerts haematinic action by being an essential constituent of haemoglobin. It is necessary for the oxidative process of living tissues.
Pharmacokinets of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)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.

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/ACalcium
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
