Riboflavine, nicotinamide and biotin are an important member of vitamin B complex functioning as coenzymes in cellular oxidative processes. Pantothenate, member of vitamin B complex is vital for amino acid and fatty acid metabolism. Pyridoxine plays a vital role in amino acid metabolism. Cyanocobalamine (vitamin B12) and folic acid are vital for nucleic acid synthesis in growing cells especially in red blood cells. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is essential for synthesis of intercellular matrix collagen and it also plays an important role as an antioxidant. Tocopheryl (vitamin E) is an important antioxidant agent, which helps the body to take care of the oxidative stresses.
Some minerals or inorganic elements are considered essential for the human beings according to their relative importance and daily requirements in quantity they can be grouped into major minerals and minor or trace elements.

Multivitamins (Hi Vit 21) pharmacology
The in vivo synthesis of the major biologically active metabolites of vitamin D occurs in two steps. The first hydroxylation of ergocalciferol takes place in the liver (to 25-hydroxyvitamin D) and the second in the kidneys (to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D). Vitamin D metabolites promote the active absorption of calcium and phosphorus by the small intestine, thus elevating serum calcium and phosphate levels sufficiently to permit bone mineralization. Vitamin D metabolites also mobilize calcium and phosphate from bone and probably increase the reabsorption of calcium and perhaps also of phosphate by the renal tubules.
There is a time lag of 10 to 24 hours between the administration of vitamin D and the initiation of its action in the body due to the necessity of synthesis of the active metabolites in the liver and kidneys. Parathyroid hormone is responsible for the regulation of this metabolism in the kidneys.
