BI-FOLATE TAB is a nutritional supplement containing a combination of B vitamins that is primarily used to manage and prevent nutritional deficiencies, especially those related to folate, vitamin B12, vitamin B6, and biotin. It is often used to support neurological health, red blood cell formation, and is sometimes recommended during pregnancy to help prevent birth defects.
Key Ingredients
The active ingredients in the standard BI-FOLATE TAB are:
- Biotin (Vitamin B7): Helps the body convert food into energy and carry nutrients throughout the body, supporting metabolism and the health of skin, hair, and nails.
- L-Methylfolate (Active form of Folic Acid/Vitamin B9): Vital for DNA synthesis, cell division, and the formation of healthy red blood cells. It is crucial during pregnancy to prevent neural tube defects in the developing baby.
- Methylcobalamin (Active form of Vitamin B12): Essential for the functioning of the brain and nerves, and in the production of red blood cells.
- Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (Active form of Vitamin B6): Involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism, and the creation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters.

BI-FOLATE TAB is used for various conditions and benefits, including:
- Managing nutritional deficiencies: Addresses deficiencies of vitamins B6, B9, and B12.
- Supporting neurological health: Helps manage conditions like diabetic neuropathy, nerve damage, numbness, and sciatica.
