Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Taufon Tabs Lutein is a combined vitamin and mineral preparation for the prevention and treatment of visual impairments, including those caused by increased visual stress. It contains a balanced complex of vitamins, microelements and plant carotenoids, which have an ophthalmic protective effect. The use of a special production technology for vitamin preparations ensures their compatibility in 1 tablet.
The mechanism of action of Taufon Tabs Lutein is due to the following properties of its components:
- Vitamin A: Retinol is a part of the visual pigment rhodopsin, so its sufficient content in the body is necessary to maintain normal visual function. It ensures the perception of light by the eye and the normal activity of the visual analyzer. Shows effectiveness in hemeralopia (night blindness), retinal and corneal pathologies. An important component in the processes of regeneration of the skin and its mucous membranes;
- vitamin B 1: thiamine is an essential component in the process of impulse transmission along the nerve fiber to coordinate the functioning of the cardiovascular, nervous and endocrine systems. Ensures the normal course of energy metabolism;
- Vitamin B 2: Riboflavin is essential for maintaining normal visual function. An active participant in metabolic processes (carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism), hemoglobin and erythropoietin synthesis;
- vitamin B 6: as a coenzyme, pyridoxine is involved in the metabolism of amino acids and carbohydrates. Contributes to the normal functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system;
- vitamin B 9: has an antianemic effect. In the form of a coenzyme, folic acid is an active participant in all metabolic processes, without which the synthesis of nucleic acids is impossible;
- vitamin B 12: is an important component in the process of hematopoiesis and normal growth of epithelial cells. Cyanocobalamin is involved in the synthesis of nucleotides, it is necessary for the synthesis of myelin and the metabolism of folic acid;
- vitamin C: ascorbic acid, a leading component of the body's antioxidant system. It plays an important role in maintaining the elasticity of capillaries, regulates their permeability and tissue regeneration, blood clotting, the formation of steroid hormones and collagen synthesis. Activates the activity of the endocrine glands. Providing a stimulating effect on the body as a whole, vitamin C increases its resistance to infections and harmful environmental influences, enhances adaptive capabilities;
- vitamin E: tocopherol acetate, a powerful antioxidant, ensures the maintenance of a stable level of erythrocytes, positively affects the functioning of the nervous and muscle tissue, gonads, and the endocrine system. Taking part in the processes of tissue respiration, it slows down the aging of body tissues;
- vitamin P or rutin: has an antioxidant effect. By participating in redox processes, it prevents the oxidation of ascorbic acid and promotes its deposition in tissues. Rutoside helps to strengthen the walls of the capillaries, regulates their permeability. Strengthens the walls of blood vessels, relieves swelling and inflammation;
- lutein and zeaxanthin: yellow pigments are carotenoids that the retina needs to function properly. Protects the eyes from the damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation. They are part of the components of the antioxidant system of the retina, which is one of the most important factors in protecting the eye. Lutein and zeaxanthin located in the lens and retina provide the photoreceptors of cells with protection from oxygen radicals that appear as a result of the adverse effects of radiation of various origins on the eye. With a low level of lutein and zeaxanthin in the tissues of the eye, the ability of the eye to withstand adverse factors, including computer radiation, prolonged visual stress, weakens;
- selenium: a natural mineral, the antioxidant effect of which is most pronounced in combination with vitamins A, E and C. Promotes an increase in immunity, the adaptive abilities of the body under the influence of adverse factors (including stress, environmental pollution, smoking);
- copper: being a catalyst for many biochemical reactions, plays an important role in the process of hematopoiesis, participates in the synthesis of melanin. Necessary in the body for the formation of collagen and elastin, an important component of iron metabolic processes;
- zinc: prevents the development of hemeralopia, promotes the utilization of vitamin A by the retina. Its deficiency increases the risk of decreased color perception, the development of retrobulbar neuritis, blepharitis, cataracts. Zinc is necessary for the synthesis of insulin and hormones of the sex glands, the normal activity of lymphoid tissue.
Taking Taufon Tabs Lutein has a general strengthening effect, ensuring the maintenance of optimal body functioning.
