The drug FERBEAPLEX contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Ferrous sulfate
UNII 2IDP3X9OUD - FERROUS SULFATE ANHYDROUS
|
|
Iron sulphate is a co-factor of various enzymes necessary for the transfer of energy (eg. cytochrome oxidase, xanthine oxidase). Iron is also present in hemoglobin and myoglobin, which are essential for the transport and use of oxygen. |
|
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 α-ketoacids (e.g. pyruvate, α-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 TLM2976OFR - RIBOFLAVIN
|
|
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. |
|
4
Niacinamide
UNII 25X51I8RD4 - NIACINAMIDE
