Nicobion Uses |
||
To avoid and correct vitamin deficiency, which may
result from an imbalanced or special diet, impaired
absorption, anorexia, slimming, pathological intestinal
flora, debilitating disease or therapy with drugs acting
as vitamin antagonists.
Nicobion syrup meets the increased vitamin requirements
during periods of intensive growth, and as a dietary
supplement in premature and newborn infants.
Nicobion is used to treat vitamin B3 deficiency and inflammatory skin diseases like acne and pellagra.
An important compound functioning as a component of the coenzyme NAD. Its primary significance is in the prevention and/or cure of blacktongue and pellagra. Most animals cannot manufacture this compound in amounts sufficient to prevent nutritional deficiency and it therefore must be supplemented through dietary intake. [PubChem]
