Uses of Newbona Fem Tablet

Nutritional deficiencies

Key benefits

• In Nutritional deficiencies Newbona Fem Tablet helps in the absorption of calcium and thus improve its level in the body. This helps in the growth and development of bones as well as reduces the risk of bone disorders like osteoporosis. It also improves the level of haemoglobin and helps in normal functioning of vital organs of the body. Newbona Fem Tablet also improves fertility and slows down the aging process.

How Newbona Fem Tablet works

Newbona Fem Tablet is a combination of six dietary supplements. Dehydroepiandrosterone (Micronized) is a hormone that balances the levels of other hormones in the body, and it also slows down the aging process. Calcium makes the bone stronger by thickening the bones. Vitamin D3, Methylcobalamin, L-Methyl Folate, and Pyridoxal-5-phosphate are different types of vitamins that are formulated together to treat any multivitamin deficiency, which help to support and regulate bodily functions. This is how it works to provide nutrition to the body.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Newbona Fem Tablet, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine may cause nausea, vomiting and withdrawal bleeding. It can raise blood calcium dangerously, causing thirst, frequent urination, vomiting, confusion and kidney damage. It is unlikely to cause serious harm, because the body passes surplus B vitamins out in the urine. It in very large doses taken over months can itself damage nerves, causing numbness and unsteadiness. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Safety advice for Newbona Fem Tablet

Warnings and precautions

Take a hormonal medicine at the same time every day; the effect depends on a steady level. Seek urgent care for sudden chest pain, breathlessness, severe headache, weakness on one side, or pain and swelling in a calf — hormone preparations can raise the risk of clots. Tell your doctor if you smoke, have migraine with aura, high blood pressure, or a family history of clots or breast cancer, before starting. Report any unusual or heavy vaginal bleeding to your doctor. Do not take more than your doctor has advised. Vitamin D builds up in the body and too much raises blood calcium, causing thirst, frequent urination, nausea and confusion. High-dose weekly or monthly sachets are prescription strengths — do not repeat one because you missed a week. Tell your doctor if you have had kidney stones or have kidney disease. Tingling, numbness or burning in the hands and feet should be assessed by a doctor rather than self-treated — a supplement does not address the cause. Folic acid can mask a vitamin B12 deficiency while nerve damage continues, so B12 should be checked before taking folic acid long term. Bright yellow urine after a B-complex dose is expected and harmless. Do not take high-dose vitamin B6 for long periods without medical advice — sustained excess can cause nerve damage.

Do not take Newbona Fem if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with a history of blood clots, certain hormone-sensitive cancers, or active liver disease. Several are contraindicated in pregnancy. Not for people with a high blood calcium level, or with certain kidney stones.

Interactions with other medicines

Rifampicin, several anti-epileptics and St John's wort make hormonal contraception unreliable. Tell your doctor about every medicine, supplement and herbal product you take. Calcium reduces the absorption of thyroid tablets, several antibiotics and iron — separate them by a few hours. Water tablets of the thiazide group raise calcium further when combined. Long-term metformin, acid-reducing medicines and some anti-epileptics lower B12 or folate levels. Tell your doctor if you take levodopa, as vitamin B6 can reduce its effect.

How to store Newbona Fem Tablet
