Tác dụng

Description:
Mechanism of Action: Folic acid is essential for the formation of coenzymes in many metabolic systems such as purine, pyrimidine, and methionine synthesis. It is also essential in nucleoprotein synthesis, maintenance of erythropoiesis, and stimulation of WBC and platelet production in folate-deficiency anaemia.
Synonym: folate.
Pharmacokinetics:
Absorption: Rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, primarily from the proximal portion of the small intestine. Bioavailability: Approx 100% (folic acid supplement); 50% (dietary folate). Time to peak plasma concentration: 1 hour.
Distribution: Widely distributed to body tissues and stored mainly in the liver. Actively concentrated in the CSF and enters breast milk. Plasma protein binding: 70%, to albumin.
Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver and plasma where it is converted to the active metabolite, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF); undergoes enterohepatic circulation.
Excretion: Via urine.
