Locyst Tablet Uses in Urdu

Ingredients

Each tablet contains L-Methylfolate as the active ingredient.

Working of this Medicine

L-Methylfolate is the biologically active form of folate that directly participates in DNA synthesis and repair. It aids in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, a process crucial for cardiovascular and neurological health. Unlike regular folic acid, L-Methylfolate bypasses metabolic conversion steps, making it ideal for patients with genetic or metabolic disorders that limit folate absorption or utilization. This ensures better bioavailability and faster clinical improvement.
