pharmachologic effect

The pharmacological action is to replenish the lack of vitamins and minerals in the body. It is determined by the complex of minerals and vitamins that is part of this multivitamin complex.

Vitamin A is directly involved in the synthesis of lipids, proteins, and mucopolysaccharides.

Vitamin D3 helps maintain a normal balance of calcium and phosphorus in the body of the expectant mother. Its deficiency in a child can lead to the development of rickets , and adults, due to vitamin D3 deficiency, suffer from osteoporosis , which develops due to a decrease in calcium levels.

B vitamins take an active part in the production of enzymes that determine metabolic processes in a woman’s body.

Folic acid helps normalize the production of blood cells and also takes part in the synthesis of amino acids. In the first trimester of pregnancy, folic acid reduces the likelihood of neural tube defects in the fetus.

Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant. Under its influence, peripheral blood flow is normalized and increased blood clotting is stopped. In addition, it is involved in the synthesis of hemoglobin and proteins, improves the functions of the heart, blood vessels, and skeletal muscles. If a woman's body lacks vitamin E in the first weeks of pregnancy, the likelihood of miscarriage increases.

Vitamin C promotes the regulation of metabolic processes in connective tissue, promotes regeneration processes, blood clotting, activates the production of steroid hormones, and increases the body's level of resistance to infectious diseases and inflammation.

Calcium ensures the normal process of bone tissue formation. The element also ensures normal levels of blood clotting, heart function, and transmission of nerve impulses. The element promotes the process of iron absorption into the body.

Iron is involved in the transport of oxygen in the body and prevents anemia in the expectant mother in the last months of gestation.

Zinc determines active tissue regeneration and normal formation of the fetal skeleton. The element reduces the risk of developing certain intrauterine anomalies.

Mechanism of action

The effectiveness of the vitamin preparation Vitrum Prenatal is based on its active components:

• retinol (vitamin A) ensures normal absorption and synthesis of proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides in the fetal body;
• cholecalciferol (vitamin D) helps absorb calcium, phosphorus, it is necessary for the proper formation of skeletal tissues, teeth, and to prevent the development of rickets;
• folic acid prevents the occurrence of defects in the neural tube of the fetus, gross disturbances in the development of its main systems, including the brain, hematopoiesis;
• other B vitamins ensure the formation of soft tissues and the exchange of amino acids in the female body;
• vitamin E, together with ascorbic acid and other antioxidants: retinol and zinc, prevents disturbances in blood synthesis, heart and vascular functions, hormonal imbalances and the premature termination of pregnancy caused by them;
• Calcium and iron ensure the transport function of blood, the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells, and support tissue regeneration.

Vitrum Prenatal and Vitrum Prenatal Forte reduce the risk of various fetal anomalies, which provoke a deficiency of mineral elements and vitamins, help normalize the physical condition of the expectant mother, prevent the appearance of anemia, metabolic disorders, and reduce the risk of miscarriages in the early stages. In nursing women, medications help maintain the required level of iron and calcium in the blood, prevent loss of strength and the development of hypovitaminosis.
