The vitamin complex Complivit Mama is one of the most popular prescriptions in Russia for maintaining the health of pregnant, lactating, and women who are just planning a pregnancy. Its main difference from foreign analogues is that the chemical composition of each multivitamin tablet meets the physiological standards of residents of the Russian Federation. That is, Complivit Mama vitamins are optimal for mothers of our country, with its climate, sudden temperature changes, seasonal diet and other features.
Composition of the vitamin complex
Mom contains:
- Retinol acetate() - 0.56 mg. Participates in the development of the placenta, tissues and skeleton of the embryo. Forms pigments with the help of which the photoreceptors of daytime and twilight vision on the retina (the so-called “rods” and “cones”) read light.
- Thiamine hydrochloride () - 2 mg. Participates in the normalization of the synthesis of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins in the body.
- (vitamin B2) - 2 mg. Works as a catalyst for cellular respiration and visual organs.
- Calcium pantothenate (vitamin B5) - 10 mg. Forms layers of epithelial tissue - layers of the skin, intestinal mucosa, lungs, etc. significantly influences the course of oxidative processes in the body.
- Pyridoxine hydrochloride () - 5 mg. Provides protein synthesis. As a rule, it is prescribed to those women who took birth control pills, which reduce the amount of vitamin B6 in the woman’s body before pregnancy.
- (vitamin B9) - 0.4 mg. One of the key components of the complex plays an important role in the formation of the nervous system of the embryo and the formation of nucleic acids.
- (vitamin B12) - 5 mcg. Responsible for the process of hematopoiesis (formation of blood cells), as well as for the process of synthesizing nucleotides. Nucleotides are energy transmitters between cells and thus regulate the growth process of the embryo.
- (vitamin C) - 100 mg. Provides the mother's body with protection from infections, negative influences of the external environment and ecology, stimulates the immune system, and is also directly involved in the synthesis of collagen, which forms and maintains the structure of bones and cartilage tissue.
- Alpha tocopherol acetate () - 20 mg. Stabilizes blood circulation and reduces the risk of miscarriage in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. It is a powerful antioxidant, protects nerve and muscle tissue cells from damage, has a positive effect on the functioning of the gonads, and prevents pathological hemolysis.
- Ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) - 6.2 mcg. Regulates the process of formation of the skeleton of the embryo, like retinol, normalizes the hormonal background of the expectant mother.
- A nicotinic acid () - 20 mg. Normalizes the metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids.
- Phosphorus- 19 mg. Ensures the normal course of mineralization of the bone tissue of the embryo and the formation of its skeleton.
- Calcium phosphate dihydrate - 25 mg. Together with phosphorus, it participates in the mineralization process and is also necessary for the functioning of the circulatory and nervous systems of the fetus.
- Copper sulfate pentahydrate , iron heptahydrate , magnesium carbonate- 2, 10, 25 mg, respectively. Just like cyanocobalamin, they participate in the process of hematopoiesis and oxygen transport to the body’s cells, and prevent anemia in the mother’s body. Strengthen her nervous system and improve overall well-being.
- Zinc- 10 mg. Normalizes the functioning of the endocrine system of the expectant mother, stimulates bone tissue growth, and reduces the risk of intrauterine anomalies. Like retinol, it is involved in the formation of a baby’s twilight and daytime vision.
- Manganese(sulfate pentohydrate) - 2.5 mg. Relieves inflammatory processes in the body, supports the mother’s bone tissue structures and prevents the occurrence of osteoarthritis.
Indications for use
Your doctor may prescribe multivitamins in three possible situations:
- For long-term treatment of infectious or chronic diseases with subsequent weakening of the woman’s immune system .
- With an unbalanced diet with a lack of vitamins and microelements in the blood .
- Prevention and treatment of vitamin and mineral deficiency (hypovitaminosis) .
Admission rules
Instructions for using the Complivit Mama multivitamin complex are as follows: it is recommended to take the tablets in the first half of the day, along with breakfast, one tablet per day, with a glass of water. The duration of the course is determined by the attending physician.
It is not recommended to use Complivit Mama simultaneously with other similar drugs. Without knowing the interaction of the composition of the two complexes, you can upset the balance of vitamins entering the body. This can cause hypervitaminosis, the consequences of which are much more difficult to eliminate.
You should know that vitamins A and E tend to accumulate in fatty tissues, and after some time their content in the blood exceeds the norm, which can cause various allergic reactions. Also, do not forget that not all vitamins are combined with each other, so before adding or replacing a vitamin complex, consult your doctor.
Side effects
Undesirable consequences from taking the vitamin complex may look like allergic rashes, swelling, and itchy skin.
If, when taking Complivit Mama, your urine begins to turn an intense yellow color, do not be alarmed - this is a sign of riboflavin entering your body, which does not harm the unborn baby.
Cross-drug interactions
The absorption of vitamins and microelements from the drug can slow down significantly when taking medications in parallel with a number of tetracyclines and fluoroquinolines due to the calcium and iron content in it.
Sulfanilamide substances are strictly contraindicated for those who take Complivit Mama, since their interaction with vitamin C is fraught with the development of crystalluria.
When taken in parallel with diuretics from the thiazide group, the drug can provoke the development of hypercalcemia.
Antacid medications, which contain cholestyramine, calcium, aluminum, and magnesium, reduce the absorption of essential iron by the expectant mother's body.
No medications should be taken by a pregnant woman without the knowledge of a doctor.
Contraindications
The instructions for use of the drug warn that an allergic reaction is possible due to personal intolerance to one of the components of the vitamin complex.
The drug is also contraindicated in women who suffer from one of the following diseases:
- pulmonary tuberculosis ;
- hypercalcemia ;
- chronic renal failure ;
- osteoporosis;
- hypercalciuria ;
- calcium nephrolithiasis ;
- decalcifying tumors - these include myeloma, sarcoidosis, metastases in bone tissue;
- pernicious B12 deficiency anemia .
You cannot prescribe vitamins for yourself. Only the attending physician should recommend this or that complex.
Hypovitaminosis () is one of the common causes of premature termination of pregnancy. If you want your unborn baby to receive all the vitamins, micro- and macroelements vital for its development, and for the pregnancy period to proceed easily and pleasantly, the Complivit Mama vitamin complex is an excellent solution.
A balanced diet can supply the human body with all the necessary vitamins and elements. But there are cases when an additional source of nutrients is vital:
