Pharmacology
Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant in the body. Vitamin E protects polyunsaturated fatty acids (which are components of cellular membrane) and other oxygen-sensitive substances such as vitamin A & vitamin C from oxidation. In premature neonates irritability, edema, thrombosis and hemolytic anemia may be caused due to vitamin E deficiency. Creatinuria, ceroid deposition, muscle weakness, decreased erythrocyte survival or increased in vitro hemolysis by oxidizing agents have been identified in adults and children with low serum tocopherol concentrations.
Dosage & Administration
Age-related Macular Degeneration: Vitamin E 400-600 IU daily.
Heart Disease (to improve effectiveness of Nitrates): Vitamin E 200 IU three times daily.
Dementia/Alzheimer’s Disease: Vitamin E 800-2000 IU one-two times daily.
Rheumatoid Arthritis Pain: Vitamin E 600 IU daily.
Improving Male Infertility: Vitamin E 200-600 IU daily.
Menstrual Syndrome: Vitamin E 400 IU daily.

Interaction
E-Gel may impair the absorption of E-Gel A & function of E-Gel K and potentiates the effect of Warfa
Contraindications
Contra-indicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to vitamin E. Patients with rare hereditary problems of fructose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption or sucrose-isomaltase insufficiency should not take this medicine.
Side Effects
Diarrhoea & abdominal pain may occur with doses greater than 1000 IU daily.
Pregnancy & Lactation
There is no evidence of the safety of high doses of vitamin E in pregnancy, therefore should not use in pregnancy especially in the first trimester. No information is available on excretion in breast milk, therefore it is advisable not to use during lactation.
Precautions & Warnings
E-Gel has been reported to increase bleeding tendency in vitamin K deficient patients or those taking anticoagulant treatments, it is therefore recommended to monitor the prothrombin time and international normalised ratio (INR) to detect any changes in haemostasis. E-Gel has been reported to increase the risk of thrombosis in patients predisposed to this condition, including patients taking oestrogens. This finding has not been confirmed but should be borne in mind when selecting patients for treatment, in particular women taking oral contraceptives containing oestrogens.
Overdose Effects
Transient gastrointestinal disturbances have been reported with doses greater than 1000 IU daily and where necessary, general supportive measure should be employed.
Therapeutic Class
Herbal and Nutraceuticals, Vitamin-E Preparations
