What is Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex)?
Vitamins are compounds that you must have for growth and health. They are needed in small amounts only and are usually available in the foods that you eat. Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) (vitamin B 9) is necessary for strong blood.
Lack of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) may lead to anemia (weak blood). Your health care professional may treat this by prescribing Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) for you.
Some conditions may increase your need for Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex). These include:
- Alcoholism
- Anemia, hemolytic
- Diarrhea (continuing)
- Fever (prolonged)
- Hemodialysis
- Illness (prolonged)
- Intestinal diseases
- Liver disease
- Stress (continuing)
- Surgical removal of stomach
In addition, infants smaller than normal, breast-fed infants, or those receiving unfortified formulas (such as evaporated milk or goat's milk) may need additional Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex).
Increased need for Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) should be determined by your health care professional.
Some studies have found that Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) taken by women before they become pregnant and during early pregnancy may reduce the chances of certain birth defects (neural tube defects).
Claims that Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) and other B vitamins are effective for preventing mental problems have not been proven. Many of these treatments involve large and expensive amounts of vitamins.
Injectable Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is given by or under the direction of your health care professional. Another form of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is available without a prescription.
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) indications
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is used in the treatment and prevention of the folate deficiency state. It does not correct folate deficiency due to dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors. Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is also used in women of child-bearing potential and pregnant women to protect against neural tube defects in their offspring. It is also used for the treatment of folate-deficient megaloblastic anaemia, chronic haemolytic states such as thalassaemia major or sickle-cell anaemia.

Uses of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) in details
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is the man-made form of folate. Folate is a B-vitamin naturally found in some foods. It is needed to form healthy cells, especially red blood cells.
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) supplements may come in different forms (such as L-methylfolate, levomefolate, methyltetrahydrofolate). They are used to treat or prevent low folate levels. Low folate levels can lead to certain types of anemia. Conditions that can cause low folate levels include poor diet, pregnancy, alcoholism, liver disease, certain stomach/intestinal problems, kidney dialysis, among others. Women of childbearing age should receive adequate amounts of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) either through their diet or supplements to prevent infant spinal cord birth defects.

Dose Adjustments
Rarely, a dosage of 2 mg/day may be required, particularly in patients with malabsorption, alcoholism, chronic hemolysis, chronic exfoliative skin disease or who are on concomitant anticonvulsant therapy.
Dialysis
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is removed by both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. The amount removed varies with type equipment used.
Because folate may accumulate in patients with end-stage renal disease, side effects may be more likely in this patient who is undergoing dialysis. Once this patient's body stores of folate are replete, three times a week dosing may be just as beneficial as once daily dosing but should portend a lower risk of side effects.
Other Comments
The recommended daily allowance of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) for adult males and females ranges from 150 to 200 and 150 to 180 mcg/day, respectively.
There is a potential danger in administering Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) to patients with undiagnosed anemia, since Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) may obscure the diagnosis of pernicious anemia by alleviating the hematologic manifestations of the disease while allowing the neurologic complications to progress.
Severe megaloblastic anemia may require therapy for 4 to 5 weeks. Once stabilized, if dietary intake is inadequate, maintenance therapy can be started.

What other drugs will affect Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex)?
Medications that interfere with your bodys ability to use folate may also increase the need for this vitamin. Medications can interfere with folate utilization, including: anticonvulsant medications (such as phenytoin, and primidone) metformin (sometimes prescribed to control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes) sulfasalazine (used to control inflammation associated with Crohns disease and ulcerative colitis) triamterene (a diuretic) Methotrexate There has been concern about the interaction between vitamin B12 and Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex). Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) supplements can correct the anemia associated with vitamin B12 deficiency. Unfortunately, Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) will not correct changes in the nervous system that result from vitamin B12 deficiency. Permanent nerve damage could theoretically occur if vitamin B12 deficiency is not treated. Therefore, intake of supplemental Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) should not exceed 1000 micrograms (g, sometimes mcg) per day to prevent Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) from masking symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency. It is important for older adults to be aware of the relationship between Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) and vitamin B12 because they are at greater risk of having a vitamin B12 deficiency. If you are 50 years of age or older, ask your physician to check your B12 status before you take a supplement that contains Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex).
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) side effects

What are the possible side effects of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex)?
Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex).
Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) is relatively nontoxic in man. Rare instances of allergic responses to Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) preparations have been reported and have included erythema, skin rash, itching, general malaise, and respiratory difficulty due to bronchospasm. One patient experienced symptoms suggesting anaphylaxis following injection of the drug. Gastrointestinal side effects, including anorexia, nausea, abdominal distention, flatulence, and a bitter or bad taste, have been reported in patients receiving 15 mg Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) daily for 1 month. Other side effects reported in patients receiving 15 mg daily include altered sleep patterns, difficulty in concentrating, irritability, overactivity, excitement, mental depression, confusion, and impaired judgment. Decreased vitamin B12 serum levels may occur in patients receiving prolonged Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) therapy.
In an uncontrolled study, orally administered Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) was reported to increase the incidence of seizures in some epileptic patients receiving phenobarbital, primidone, or diphenylhydantoin. Another investigator reported decreased diphenylhydantoin serum levels in folate-deficient patients receiving diphenylhydantoin who were treated with 5 mg or 15 mg of Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) daily.
CALL YOUR DOCTOR FOR MEDICAL ADVICE ABOUT SIDE EFFECTS. YOU MAY REPORT SIDE EFFECTS TO THE FDA AT 1-800-FDA-1088 OR LEADING PHARMA, LLC AT 844-740-7500.

What is the most important information I should know about Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex)?
Because it may mask the hematologic abnormalities while neurological damage progresses, Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) should not be used in the therapy of patients with vitamin B12 deficiency of any cause, unless there is associated folate deficiency. The Folic Acid (Nioxin Recharging Complex) content of one tablet a day however, is unlikely to mask pernicious anemia should this condition be present. Also, pregnancy during pernicious anemia is very rare.

What other drugs will affect Zinc (Nioxin Recharging Complex)?
Pyridoxine reduces the effects of levodopa (but this does not occur if a dopa decarboxylase is also given); decreases serum concentrations of phenobarbitone. Concurrent administration of drugs eg, isoniazid, penicillamine and oral contraceptives increase the requirement for pyridoxine.
Absorption of cyanocobalamin from the GIT may be reduced by neomycin, aminosalicylic acid, histamine H2-receptor antagonists and colchicine. Serum concentrations may be decreased by concurrent administration of oral contraceptives. Many of these interactions are unlikely to be of clinical significance but should be taken into account when performing assays for blood concentrations.
Parenteral chloramphenicol may attenuate the effect of vitamin B12 in anaemia.
Folate deficiency states may be produced by a number of drugs including antiepileptics, oral contraceptives, antituberculous drugs, alcohol and Zinc (Nioxin Recharging Complex) antagonists eg, aminopterin, methotrexate, pyrimethamine, trimethoprim and sulphonamides; Zinc (Nioxin Recharging Complex) may decrease serum-phenytoin concentrations.
There may be an increased risk of myopathy or rhabdomyolysis when nicotinic acid is used concurrently with statins. Nicotinamide may increase the requirements for insulin or oral hypoglycaemics.
Ascorbic acid may increase the absorption of iron-deficiency states.
Ascorbic acid is often given in addition to desferrioxamine to patients with iron overload (thalassemia) to achieve better iron excretion. However, early on in treatment when there is excess tissue iron, there is some evidence that ascorbic acid may worsen the iron toxicity, particularly to the heart. Thus, ascorbic acid should not be given for the first month after starting desferrioxamine treatment.
The absorption of Zinc (Nioxin Recharging Complex) may be reduced by iron supplements, penicillamine, phosphorus-containing preparations and tetracyclines. Zinc (Nioxin Recharging Complex) supplements reduce the absorption of copper, ciprofloxacin, iron, norfloxacin, penicillamine and tetracyclines.
