Indications

Multivitamin [water soluble] + 5% Dextrose is given as a supplement through a drip into the vein. It covers the daily need for water-soluble vitamins in patients who are NPO (nothing by mouth) or who are having surgery.

⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.

Pharmacology

Multivitamin (water soluble) is an IV preparation. It comes as a sterile, lyophilized powder of water-soluble vitamins, and it is given by infusion. It holds a balanced amount of all the important water-soluble vitamins. These act as coenzymes of key enzymes linked to major physiological processes, energy metabolism, and cell growth and replenishment, especially in brain and nerve cells. Vitamin C works as an antioxidant and helps in collagen formation. Because this combination goes straight into a vein, it acts promptly.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

No animal reproduction studies or clinical studies in pregnancy have been done with this water-soluble multivitamin and dextrose preparation. There are, however, published reports showing that water-soluble vitamins have been given safely to pregnant women.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
