About Alcomax-Iv Injection 5ml

Alcomax-Iv Injection 5ml is a combination medicine used to manage vitamin deficiencies, particularly in patients with alcoholic liver disease or those undergoing chronic alcohol withdrawal. It helps restore essential vitamins and energy levels, supporting liver function, metabolism, and overall health.

Alcomax-Iv Injection 5ml contains Anhydrous Dextrose, Ascorbic Acid, Niacinamide, Pyridoxine, Riboflavin, and Thiamine. Anhydrous Dextrose provides a rapid energy source. Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) helps protect liver cells from toxic substances and acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from damage. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) plays a role in metabolism and cell repair. Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) is essential for nerve function and red blood cell production. Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) supports liver function by aiding nutrient metabolism, reducing oxidative stress, and promoting tissue repair. Thiamine (Vitamin B1) helps reduce the risk of developing a rare memory disorder (Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome, WKS) and can decrease symptoms of WKS during alcohol withdrawal.

In some cases, this medicine may cause side effects like nausea, vomiting, headache, flushing, dizziness, allergic reactions, and pain at the injection site. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and may resolve gradually. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, consult the doctor.
