Pharmacological action

Pikovit ® FORTE contains 11 of the most important vitamins in amounts that correspond to the recommended doses for children aged 7 years and older.

B vitamins (Bl, B2, B6, B12, pantothenic acid and nicotinamide) are involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Folic acid is essential for the normal synthesis, regeneration and functioning of blood cells.

Vitamin A is essential for the development of epithelial cells and the synthesis of visual pigment. Vitamin D regulates calcium intake and promotes proper bone and tooth mineralization. Vitamin C promotes iron absorption and is involved in many redox processes in the body.

Vitamin E is a physiological antioxidant that protects cell membranes and supports cell function.

PIKOVIT ® FORTE does not contain sugar.

Pharmacokinetics.

Water-soluble vitamins (B vitamins, vitamin C and biotin) are well absorbed in amounts that correspond to the daily needs of the body. Amounts exceeding the level of tissue saturation are excreted in the urine and, sometimes, in the feces. Regular intake of these vitamins is important to maintain the necessary concentrations in the tissues, as they accumulate in the body in limited quantities.

When taken orally, fat-soluble vitamins A and D are well absorbed in the small intestine in the presence of fat. The absorption of vitamin E is rather weak (25-85% of the dose).

Indications

PIKOVIT ® FORTE is recommended for use in children from 7 years of age with an increased need for vitamins:

• reduced concentration due to increased fatigue in school-age children;
• increased physical activity (including during sports);
• increased need for vitamins due to reduced appetite;
• in the complex treatment of diseases with the appointment of antibiotics;
• increased need for vitamins with reduced seasonal consumption of fresh vegetables and fruits.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug. Hypervitaminosis A and D. Children under 7 years of age. Pikovit ® FORTE contains aspartame containing phenylalanine, so the drug is not recommended for patients with phenylketonuria.

Side effects

Possible allergic reactions.

Pikovit FORTE contains 0.6 g of maltitol, so taking doses higher than recommended may cause diarrhea.

If any adverse reactions occur, you should stop taking the drug and consult your doctor.

How to take, course of use and dosage

Tablets should be kept in the mouth until completely absorbed.

Children from 7 years of age: 1 tablet once a day after meals. In case of poor appetite, the child should be given 1 tablet a day for 2 months.

Overdose

If an overdose develops while taking high doses of the drug for more than 1 month, hypervitaminosis of vitamins A and D may develop.

Prolonged use of high doses of vitamin B6 may cause the development of peripheral neuropathy.

Special instructions

If you need to take other vitamin supplements at the same time, consult your doctor.

Patients with diabetes can take Pikovit FORTE. At the same time, it should be remembered that one lozenge contains 0.6 g of maltitol. Maltitol requires insulin for metabolism, although due to its slow hydrolysis and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, the need for insulin is low.

The energy value of one lozenge is approximately 6 kJ (1.4 kcal).
