Oral ZB | Vitamin B-complex + Zinc Syrup | 100ml Bottle

✔️ Side Effects

Generally well tolerated. Occasionally, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or stomach upset may occur. Adverse effects are usually linked to excessive intake beyond recommended doses.

✔️ Pharmacology

Zinc plays a vital role in immune defense, wound healing, digestion, reproduction, growth, and mental development. It supports normal growth during pregnancy, childhood, and adolescence, and also has antioxidant effects. Zinc deficiency can cause poor appetite, reduced sense of taste/smell, depression, nail changes, frequent infections, infertility, prostate issues, impaired wound healing, weakened immunity, diarrhea, lethargy, rough skin, and weight loss. It is also used in managing ADHD in children.

B Vitamins are essential for energy release from food, brain and nerve function, and red blood cell formation. They are critical for healthy growth in children. Deficiency in adults may cause fatigue, neurological issues (poor balance, confusion, irritability, memory loss, tingling, loss of coordination), as well as sleep disturbances, nausea, poor appetite, frequent infections, and skin problems.
