Pharmacological Properties
VITAZINC contains vitamin A which is essential for normal function of the retina and healthy epithelial tissue. Its deficiency leads to xerophthalmia, keratomalacia, nightblindness, dryness of the skin and lowered resistance to infection.
VITAZINC also contains vitamin E, the powerful antioxidant which protects cellular constituents from oxidation. Vitamin E also facilitates absorption and utilization of vitamin A as well as reducing its toxicity.
VITAZINC contains as well zinc which acts as an integral part of several enzymes involved in carbohydrate and protein metabolism.
Its deficiency manifestations include hypogonadism, alopecia, growth retardation, impaired healing, impaired reproduction in males, impaired taste and olfactory sensations.
VITAZINC is an oral zinc preparation for use when inadequate diet calls for supplementary zinc and for the treatment of demonstrated zinc deficiency.
