Description
Mecobalamin (Methylcobalamin) is the bioactive coenzyme form of Vitamin B12, essential for nerve function, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis. The sublingual formulation allows for rapid absorption through the mucous membrane under the tongue, bypassing the digestive tract, which is particularly beneficial for individuals with B12 malabsorption issues.
Mechanism of Action:
Mecobalamin plays a crucial role in the methylation cycle, myelin sheath repair, and homocysteine metabolism. It supports neurological function by aiding in the regeneration of damaged nerve cells and is involved in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, reducing cardiovascular risk.
Uses:
Sublingual Mecobalamin 1500 mcg is used for:
- Vitamin B12 deficiency
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Diabetic neuropathy
- Megaloblastic anemia
- Fatigue, cognitive decline, or memory issues related to low B12
- Supportive therapy in neurodegenerative diseases
