Vitamins "Aevit" - a complex of vitamins that helps stimulate the body's immunity and remove antioxidants, and it also has a positive effect on the skin, hair and nails. But it should be taken only after consulting a doctor. Why? The article gives an answer to this question.
Pharmacological properties
Vitamins "Aevit" - a combined type of drug. Its action is determined on the basis of the properties of the vitamins of the fat-soluble type, which are included in its composition. These vitamins include A and E.
The number of components in the complex does not allow us to consider it a multivitamin complex. With the joint functioning of the elements, the body increases resistance to oxygen deficiency, tissue respiration is optimized, lipid metabolism is improved, and vascular elasticity is increased.
Vitamin A or retinol is a very important component that contributes to the normal functioning of the retina. With the interaction of retinol and the red pigment of the retina, the formation of visual purpura rhodopsin occurs, due to which the person adapts visually in the dark. In addition, vitamin A promotes bone growth, as well as normal fertility and embryo development. It also regulates the division and differentiation of the epithelium, i.e. It enhances the reproduction of skin epithelial cells, rejuvenation of the cell population, inhibition of the keratinization process, etc. Among other things, with its help, as a cofactor, various biological processes occur.
Vitamin E or tocopherol is a good antioxidant that promotes the development of free radical reactions, preventing the formation of peroxides that damage the subcellular and cellular membranes. The performance of this function has a positive effect on the overall development, as well as the functioning of the muscular and nervous systems of the body. In combination with selenium, it slows down the oxidation of unsaturated acids (fatty) and prevents the destruction of red blood cells with the release of hemoglobin. Tocopherol is also a non-protein compound for some enzyme systems. In addition, it restores blood circulation in the capillaries, normalizes tissue and capillary permeability, and increases the degree of resistance of body tissues to hypoxia. The function of one of the elements of vitamin E - alpha-tocopherol is not fully understood.

- Tocopherol increases the effectiveness of epilepsy medications in people with high levels of lipid oxidation (peroxidation) in the blood .
- With the simultaneous intake of vitamin E in high doses and anticoagulants (derivatives of indandion and coumarin), the risk of bleeding increases and contributes to the development of hypoprothrombinemia.
