Cod liver oil

Function and Efficacy

Vitamin A and D are essential substances for human growth and development. Vitamin A can be converted into retinal in the body and participate in the synthesis of photosensitive substance-rhodopsin to maintain the dark adaptation process of vision and enhance the photosensitivity of the retina; at the same time, it can maintain the integrity and soundness of the epithelial tissue structure; and it plays an important role in the growth of bones and the development of gonads. Vitamin D can promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestine, decalcify old bones, calcify new bones, and strengthen the reabsorption of calcium and phosphorus by renal tubular cells, thereby regulating serum calcium and phosphorus concentrations. It is especially important for the development of fetuses and infants, the integrity of epithelial tissues, vision, reproductive organs, the stability of blood calcium and phosphorus, and the growth and development of bones and teeth. Toxicological studies: No relevant reports have been seen.

Special Population Medication

Precautions for children: Infants and young children are more sensitive to large or excessive amounts of vitamin A and should be used with caution. Precautions during pregnancy and lactation: 1. Pregnant women with hypercalcemia may be sensitive to vitamin D, which can inhibit parathyroid activity, resulting in special facial features, mental retardation and hereditary aortic arch stenosis in infants. 2. Infants who are fully breastfed are prone to vitamin D deficiency, especially infants of dark-skinned mothers. Infants have large differences in sensitivity to vitamin D, and some infants are very sensitive to small doses of vitamin D. 3. The requirement for vitamin A increases slightly during pregnancy, but it should not exceed 6,000 units per day. When pregnant women consume large amounts of vitamin A, it may cause fetal malformations, such as urinary tract malformations, growth retardation, and early epiphyseal healing. Vitamin A can be secreted from breast milk. When the intake of breastfeeding mothers increases, attention should be paid to the amount of vitamin A that infants take from breast milk. Excessive intake of vitamin A in pregnant animals may cause malformations of the fetal central nervous system, spine, ribs, heart, eyes and urinary tract. Those who have excessive intake of vitamin A and may have early pregnancy should take a pregnancy test and measure the vitamin A content in the blood. Contraception should be used during the period of vitamin A overdose. Pregnant women who have excessive intake of vitamin A should be consulted about the risk of fetal teratogenicity. Precautions for the elderly: Long-term use of vitamin A by the elderly may lead to vitamin A overdose due to delayed clearance of retinal aldehyde.

Drug Interactions

1. Oral contraceptives can increase the concentration of plasma vitamin A. 2. When used in combination with vitamin E, it can promote the absorption of vitamin A in this product, increase the storage in the liver, accelerate utilization and reduce toxicity, but taking a large amount of vitamin E can deplete the storage of vitamin A in the body. 3. Antacids (such as aluminum hydroxide) can reduce bile acid in the upper small intestine and affect the absorption of vitamin A in this product. 4. Taking a large amount of vitamin A with anticoagulants (such as coumarin or indandione derivatives) can lead to a decrease in prothrombin. 5. Comifenamine, mineral oil, neomycin, and sucralfate can interfere with the absorption of vitamin A in this product. 6. It should not be used in combination with drugs containing large amounts of magnesium and calcium to avoid causing hypermagnesemia and hypercalcemia.

Storage

Protect from light, seal tightly, and store in a cool and dry place.
