- PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Category and class: D 34.12 Multiple substance formulation.
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is excreted in the bile or urine.
Vitamin B1 is a water-soluble B vitamin and is absorbed by the proximal part of the small intestines. It occurs in the body as the metabolically active form thiamine diphosphate and is excreted in the urine.
Vitamin B2 is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is widely distributed in the body. It is excreted in the urine.
Vitamin B3 is water-soluble and well absorbed and is excreted mainly via urine.
Vitamin B5 is an essential B vitamin. It is absorbed from the small intestines and widely distributed through the body. About 70 % is excreted unchanged in the urine, and 30 % in the faeces.
Vitamin B6 is passively absorbed from the upper gastrointestinal tract, converted in the liver to the coenzyme pyridoxal phosphate and excreted in the urine.
Vitamin B12 is an essential water-soluble vitamin. It is absorbed in the terminal ileum and is mainly stored in the liver. Vitamin B12 is excreted via urine, faeces and bile.
Vitamin C is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is widely distributed in the body. The main route of elimination is through urine.
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is well absorbed and requires hydroxylation in the body to form the active metabolite, calcitriol. Excretion occurs mainly through the bile and faeces, with small amounts appearing in urine.
Folic acid is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, mainly the jejunum, and enters portal circulation where it is converted to the metabolically active form 5-methyltetrahydrofolate in the plasma and liver. It is excreted mainly in the urine.
Biotin is completely absorbed after oral administration and is bound to plasma proteins. It is excreted in the urine as unmetabolised biotin or as metabolites.
Zinc is a biologically essential trace element that is absorbed in the small intestines and is distributed in the body in skeletal muscle and bone. It is mainly excreted through the faeces.
Copper is absorbed from the small intestines and rapidly taken up by the liver and incorporated into caeruloplasmin. It is excreted via bile into faeces, with small amounts excreted in urine.
Iron absorption is variable and is enhanced by the presence of ascorbic acid. Most of the iron absorbed is incorporated into haemoglobin and is mostly excreted in the faeces.
After absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, selenium is incorporated into the enzyme glutathione peroxidase. It is excreted mainly in the urine.
After absorption, boron is distributed to all tissues with the highest concentration in bone and lowest in adipose tissue. 90 % of the boron is excreted unchanged in the urine.
Calcium absorption is affected by several factors like age, race, environmental and dietary conditions. Dietary calcium absorption is inversely correlated with total dietary calcium, dietary fibre, alcohol intake and physical activity. Calcium is distributed in the bones and teeth and excreted via the urine and faeces.
Approximately 0,5 % to 2 % of chromium is absorbed and distributed to the kidney, heart, liver, brain, muscle, spleen and lungs. A small percentage of chromium that is absorbed is rapidly excreted in the urine.
Magnesium requires both parathyroid hormone and vitamin D for absorption. Magnesium is absorbed throughout the gastrointestinal tract, is distributed in the skeleton and soft tissue, and excreted primary via the kidneys.
Absorbed manganese stays in the blood for a short time, but accumulates in tissues, including bone, where it can remain for many years. Manganese is cleared hepatically.
Molybdenum is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and stored in several organs. 90 % of ingested molybdenum is excreted in the urine within a few hours.
Only about 5 % of ingested vanadium is absorbed. Vanadium is distributed to the liver, kidney and bone, and primarily excreted in the urine.
Citrus bioflavonoids are a source of antioxidants which helps to protect cells against free radicals.

- FARMAKOLOGIESE EIENSKAPPE
Kategorie en klas: D 34.12 Formule met verskeie bestanddele.
Vitamien A is ’n vetoplosbare vitamien wat geredelik uit die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer word en in die gal of urine uitgeskei word.
Vitamien B1 is ’n wateroplosbare B-vitamien en word deur die proksimale deel van die dunderm geabsorbeer. Dit kom in die liggaam as die metabolies aktiewe vorm tiamiendifosfaat voor en word in die urine uitgeskei.
Vitamien B2 word geredelik uit die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer en word wyd versprei in die liggaam. Dit word in die urine uitgeskei.
Vitamien B3 is wateroplosbaar, word goed geabsorbeer en word hoofsaaklik via die urine uitgeskei.
Vitamien B5 is ’n essensiële B-vitamien. Dit word uit die dunderm geabsorbeer en wyd versprei deur die liggaam. Ongeveer 70 % word onveranderd in die urine uitgeskei, en 30 % in die feses.
Vitamien B6 word passief geabsorbeer uit die boonste spysverteringskanaal, in die lewer omgeskakel na die koënsiem piridoksaalfosfaat en in die urine uitgeskei.
Vitamien B12 is ’n essensiële, wateroplosbare vitamien. Dit word in die terminale ileum geabsorbeer, en word hoofsaaklik in die lewer opgeberg. Vitamien B word via urine, feses en gal uitgeskei.
Vitamien C word geredelik uit die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer en wyd in die liggaam versprei. Dit word hoofsaaklik in die urine uitgeskei.
Vitamien D is ’n vetoplosbare vitamien. Dit word goed geabsorbeer en word dan in die liggaam gehidroksileer om die aktiewe metaboliet kalsitriol te vorm. Dit word hoofsaaklik in gal en feses uitgeskei, met klein hoeveelhede in die urine.
Foliensuur word vinnig uit die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer, hoofsaaklik die jejunum, en gaan die portale sirkulasie in waar dit in die plasma en lewer na 5-metieltetrahidrofolaat omgeskakel word, wat metabolies aktief is. Dit word hoofsaaklik in die urine uitgeskei.
Biotien word volledig geabsorbeer na mondelikse inname, en is gebonde aan plasmaproteïene. Dit word in die urine as ongemetaboliseerde biotien of as metaboliete uitgeskei.
Sink is ’n biologies essensiële spoorelement wat uit die dunderm geabsorbeer word en na die skeletspiere en -bene versprei word. Dit word hoofsaaklik in die feses uitgeskei.
Koper word uit die dunderm geabsorbeer en vinnig in die lewer opgeneem, waar dit in seruloplasmien (ferroksidase) geïnkorporeer word. Dit word via gal in die feses uitgeskei, met klein hoeveelhede in die urine.
Ysterabsorpsie varieer en word bevorder deur die teenwoordigheid van askorbiensuur. Die meeste van die yster wat geabsorbeer word, word in hemoglobien geïnkorporeer, en word hoofsaaklik in die feses uitgeskei.
Seleen word in die ensiem glutatioonperoksidase geïnkorporeer nadat dit uit die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer is. Dit word hoofsaaklik in die urine uitgeskei.
Na absorpsie word boor na al die weefsels versprei, met die hoogste konsentrasie in been en die laagste in vetweefsel. 90 % van die boor word onveranderd in die urine uitgeskei.
Kalsiumabsorpsie word deur verskeie faktore beïnvloed, soos ouderdom, ras, omgewingstoestande en eetgewoontes. Absorpsie van kalsium uit die dieet is omgekeerd eweredig aan die hoeveelheid kalsium in die dieet, dieetvesel, alkoholinname en fisieke aktiwiteit. Kalsium word na die bene en tande versprei, en via die urine en feses uitgeskei.
Ongeveer 0,5 % tot 2 % van die chroom word geabsorbeer en na die niere, hart, lewer, brein, spiere, milt en longe versprei. ’n Klein persentasie van die chroom wat geabsorbeer word, word vinnig via die urine uitgeskei.
Magnesium benodig sowel paratiroïedhormoon as vitamien D vir absorpsie. Magnesium word uit die hele lengte van die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer, word na die skelet en sagteweefsel versprei, en hoofsaaklik via die niere uitgeskei.
Geabsorbeerde mangaan bly vir ’n kort rukkie in die bloed, maar akkumuleer in weefsel, insluitende been, waar dit vir baie jare kan bly. Mangaan word deur die lewer opgeruim.
Molibdeen word uit die spysverteringskanaal geabsorbeer en in verskeie organe opgeberg. 90 % van die molibdeen wat ingeneem word, word binne ’n paar uur in die urine uitgeskei.
Slegs sowat 5 % van die vanadium wat ingeneem word, word geabsorbeer. Vanadium word na die lewer, niere en been versprei, en hoofsaaklik in die urine uitgeskei.
Sitrusbioflavonoïede is ’n bron van antioksidante, wat help om selle teen vry radikale te beskerm.
