Nusam

Updated

I am suffering from fatty liver. My SGPT (ALT) is 295 now. Doctor prescribed me NUSAM 400. I want to know how good it is and regarding side effect. As it is very costly, 10 tablet strip cost Rs. 408.00, i want to know if any tablet exists with same composition with lesser price and if as good as NUSAM?

Hi MIKEB,

Based on my research, NUSAM 400 is a nutritional supplement that contains the active ingredient S-Adenosyl methionine (ademetionine, AdoMet, SAM, SAMe, SAM-e).

In the United States and Canada, SAM is sold as a nutritional supplement under the marketing name SAM-e (also spelled SAME or SAMe; pronounced "sam ee" or "Sammy"). SAM is also marketed under the Gumbaral, Samyr, Adomet, Heptral, Agotan, Donamet, Isimet and Admethionine brand names as a prescription drug approved in Russia, Italy, and several countries within the European Union. Some research, including multiple clinical trials, has indicated taking SAM on a regular basis may help fight depression, liver disease, and the pain of osteoarthritis. All other indications are not yet proven.

How to take:

SAM is best absorbed on an empty stomach. Enteric-coated tablets packaged in foil or foil blister packs increase stability and improve absorption. SAM should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent deterioration.


Adverse effects:

Gastrointestinal disorder, dyspepsia and anxiety can occur with SAM consumption. Long-term effects are unknown. SAM is a weak DNA-alkylating agent.

You may consider asking for a less expensive generic version of this medication, if there is one available.

Do you have anymore questions?

In case you are still looking for answers please read the following information from the University of Maryland. I came across it while looking for some answers on why my mother was prescribed the same medicine for knee pain.

Apparently, S-Adenosylmethionine (SAMe) is a naturally occurring chemical compound that is abundant throughout the entire human body: umm.edu/health/medical/altmed/supplement/sadenosylmethionine
