Nephro-Vite
Nephro-Vite is a specialty multivitamin formulated for individuals with renal disease. It contains water-soluble B-complex vitamins, Vitamin C, and Folic Acid, which are frequently depleted during dialysis. It specifically excludes fat-soluble vitamins like Vitamin A, which can accumulate to toxic levels in patients with impaired kidney function.
Dosage by Body Weight
Adults: Typically 1 tablet daily, or as directed by a healthcare provider. For patients undergoing dialysis, it is generally recommended to take the tablet after dialysis treatment to prevent the vitamins from being cleared from the bloodstream.
