ZINCOVIZ TAB ALU ALU
MULTIVITAMIN + ZINC + MINERALS + METHYLCOBALAMINE
ZINCOVIZ TAB ALU ALU is a tablet combining multivitamins, zinc, minerals and methylcobalamin. It is used as a nutritional supplement where dietary intake is inadequate, during convalescence, and where zinc and vitamin B12 deficiency are likely to coexist.
01
Benefits
- Provides a broad base of vitamins and minerals alongside a therapeutic zinc content.
- Methylcobalamin is the active coenzyme form of vitamin B12, useful in vegetarian diets, in the elderly and in long-term metformin users.
- Zinc supports immune function, wound healing, growth and taste perception.
- The B group supports normal energy metabolism and nerve function.
- Once-daily dosing is simple to sustain over the weeks a nutritional gap takes to close.
02
Side effects
Not everyone gets these. Most are mild and settle as the course finishes.
Common
- Nausea or stomach upset, particularly on an empty stomach
- Metallic taste from the zinc
- Bright yellow discolouration of the urine from riboflavin
- Loose stools or constipation
Less common
- Flushing or warmth of the skin from niacin
- Headache
- Abdominal cramping
- Skin rash or itching
Stop and get medical help if any of these occur
- Swelling of the face, lips or tongue, or difficulty breathing
- Widespread rash or hives
- Persistent vomiting or severe abdominal pain
- Unusual fatigue or repeated infections, which may indicate copper deficiency from prolonged zinc use
- Numbness or tingling of the hands and feet on prolonged high-dose use
03
Precautions
- A dietary supplement, not a medicine, and not a substitute for a balanced diet.
- Prolonged high-dose zinc causes copper deficiency — do not continue indefinitely without review.
- Do not exceed the stated dose or take alongside another multivitamin; fat-soluble vitamins accumulate.
- Zinc and other minerals impair absorption of tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics and of thyroid hormone — separate by at least two hours.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Take after food to reduce nausea, and note that yellow urine is expected and harmless.
- Use in pregnancy and breastfeeding only on medical advice.
