Help!! I have been taking vit B supplements but the hematologist said my body can't metabolize regular supplements b/c I have one strand of dna with MTHFR mutation. He said I need Foltx b/c my body can metabolize that type of vit B. What is the difference? it is expensive?! ## From what I've researched, Foltx reportedly contains the following B vitamins: Folacin + Cyanocobalamin + Pyridoxine In terms of differences: - Folacin is just another name for folic acid / folate / vitamin B9 - Cyanocobalamin is actually a cheaper synthetic inactive version of vitamin B12 made in a laboratory. By comparison, Hydroxocobalamin is another inactive form of B12, and Methylcobalamin is the only naturally occurring biologically active version of B12. - Pyridoxine is just another name for vitamin...

I am 43 year old mother of two. i am suffering from arthritis and have been taking Folitrax 10 mg from the past 4 years 1 tablet per week. I have hot flashes at night and i feel like i am having memory loss and despite my repeated hard work i am not able to lose weight instead i am gaining it. are these possible side effects of the medication ? kindly help me soon. ## Hi, Sunita! It's really difficult to say for sure what might be causing these symptoms, though they aren't usually caused by the Folitrax. At your age, they could very well be due to hormonal fluctuations from having anovulatory cycles. Perimenopause can start as young as 35, but is most common in the early to mid-40's and the issues you're experiencing are typical signs of a lack of ovulation causing you t...

folitrax is for arthiritis or any other problem ## THANKS THAT WILL HELP FOR ME BETTER ## "Methotrexate (rINN) (pronounced /mtrkset/), abbreviated MTX and formerly known as amethopterin, is an antimetabolite and antifolate drug used in treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases.

what are the side effects of folinext otsira genetica tablets? A 3-month course (once daily) was suggested for hair loss. I'm now experiencing headaches, chest pain, weakness and dark complexion. ## Folinext contains the active ingredients, Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) + Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12); and in some dosages it also contains the Omega-3 fatty acid Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Based on these ingredients it is a very natural supplement and to see signs of side effects with Vitamins is generally very uncommon when taken as prescribed. The only questionable ingredient to me is the added fish oil. Fish oil can cause side effects including belching, bad breath, heartburn, nausea, loose stools, rash, and nosebleeds. Taking fish oil supplements with meals or freezing them can often d...
