Composition
1 ml of Mecofast Drops contains Mecobalamin 1500 mcg
With Sugar Free Advantage
Mecofast Drops are nutritional dietary supplement of oral Mecobalamin liquid drops for adults.
Advantages of Mecofast Drops
- Maximum absorption directly in to blood stream v/s 0.36 to 1.2% with conventional tablets or capsule.
- Retains highest therapeutic value by direct absorption, unlike tablets or capsules which lose their strength because of various digestive acids.
- Unlike tablets or capsules, there is no interaction with other drugs like PPI's, H-2 receptors antagonists, anti-fungals & certain antibiotics.
- Dosage adjustments are very easy because of drops (1 drop = 75 mcg Mecobalamin) in contrast to conventional oral dosage forms.
- Effects are instant because of quick absorption & better optimization.
- Sugar free drops are very safe for diabetics.

Functions of Mecobalamin
Mecobalamin, one of the two active co-enzyme forms of vitamin B12 (cobalamin), plays an important role in red blood cell formation, methylation reactions, brain and nervous system function, and immune system regulation. Cobalamin deficiency may manifest as megaloblastic anemia, peripheral neuropathy, irritability, dementia, depression, psychosis, and increased risk of myocardial infraction and stroke. With early diagnosis and prompt treatment, progressive and irreversible neurologic and cognitive impairment can be avoided. However, circulating levels of cobalamin are not always a reflection of tissue levels. In fact, even if an adequate supply of cobalamin is present in the circulation, a functional deficiency of the co-enzyme forms might exist in tissues or other body fluids.
Evidence indicates that mecobalamin has metabolic benefits and potential therapeutic applications, not offered by other forms of vitamin B12. Although cyanocobalamin is the most commonly used form of vitamin B12 in dietary supplements, it must be enzymatically converted into one of the two metabolically active co-enzyme forms, i.e. S-adenosylcobalamin or mecobalamin. Nutritional inadequacies, enzyme defects, and tissue abnormalities can reduce the body's ability to synthesize these active forms.
Mecobalamin participates in the transfer of methyl groups as an essential co-factor for methionine synthase, a critical enzyme required for synthesis of methionine from homocysteine. This contributes to lowering of homocysteine levels, which is recognized as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Mecobalamin also participates in synthesis of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), important for formation of the neurotransmitters-dopamine and serotonin, involved in mood regulation.
Use of oral mecobalamin may thus offer biochemical and therapeutic advantages over traditional forms of oral vitamin B12.
