Metax Capsule

Metax Capsule is a capsule from CCL Pharmaceutical whose active ingredient is L-Methylfolate, an active form of folate. Doctors use it for folate deficiency, support during pregnancy and people with MTHFR gene variants. This pack contains 20 capsules.

What is Metax Capsule used for?

Metax Capsule is an active form of folate (vitamin B9) used for folate deficiency, to support a healthy pregnancy and to help people who do not convert ordinary folic acid efficiently, such as those with an MTHFR gene variant.

How does Metax Capsule work?

L-methylfolate is already in the form the body uses, so it enters the cycle that builds DNA and red blood cells directly and supports the normal development of a baby’s nervous system.

Side effects of Metax Capsule

Many people take Metax Capsule without any trouble. When side effects do occur they are usually mild, and may include:

• Mild nausea or bloating

Seek medical advice if you develop swelling of the face or breathing difficulty after taking it.

Before you take Metax Capsule

• Take it as advised by your doctor, especially around conception and early pregnancy.
