Active ingredients

The drug DUL C VIT contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):

1 Vitamin A
UNII 1D1K0N0VVC - VITAMIN A PALMITATE

Vitamin A plays an important role in the visual process. It is isomerised to the 11-cis isomer and subsequently bound to the opsin to form the photoreceptor for vision under subdued light. Vitamin A also participates in the formation and maintenance of the integrity of epithelial tissues and mucous membranes.

2 Vitamin B1
UNII M572600E5P - THIAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE

Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), the coenzymatic form of thiamine, is involved in two main types of metabolic reactions: decarboxylation of ฮฑ-ketoacids (e.g. pyruvate, ฮฑ-ketoglutarate and branched-chain keto acids) and transketolation (e.g. among hexose and pentose phosphates). Therefore, the principal physiological role of thiamine is as a coenzyme in carbohydrate metabolism, where TPP is required for several stages in the breakdown of glucose to provide energy.

3 Riboflavin
UNII 20RD1DZH99 - RIBOFLAVIN 5'-PHOSPHATE SODIUM DIHYDRATE

Riboflavine is phosphorylated to flavine mononucleotide and flavine adenine dinucleotide which act as co-enzymes in the respiratory chain and in oxidative phosphorylation. Riboflavine deficiency presents with ocular symptoms, as well as lesions on the lips and at angles of the mouth.

6 Vitamin C
UNII PQ6CK8PD0R - ASCORBIC ACID

Ascorbic acid, coupled with dehydroascorbic acid to which it is reversibly oxidised, has a variety of functions in cellular oxidation processes. Ascorbic acid is required in several important hydroxylations, including the conversion of proline to hydroxyproline and appears to have an important role in metal ion metabolism, including the gastrointestinal absorption of iron and its transport between plasma and storage organs.

7 Vitamin D3
UNII 1C6V77QF41 - CHOLECALCIFEROL

In its biologically active form vitamin D3 stimulates intestinal calcium absorption, incorporation of calcium into the osteoid, and release of calcium from bone tissue. In the small intestine it promotes rapid and delayed calcium uptake. The passive and active transport of phosphate is also stimulated.

8 Vitamin E
UNII 9E8X80D2L0 - .ALPHA.-TOCOPHEROL ACETATE

Vitamin E is known to exert an important physiological function as an antioxidant for fats, with a sparing action on vitamin A, carotenoids and on unsaturated fatty acids. Other work has demonstrated that vitamin E is connected with the maintenance of certain factors essential for the normal metabolic cycle.
