Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
Folic Acid Pellets are specialized oral dosage forms designed to deliver folic acid (Vitamin B9), an essential water-soluble vitamin required for DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation, and prevention of neural tube defects. The pelletized form ensures improved bioavailability, uniform distribution in multiarticulate systems, and flexibility in formulating fixed-dose combinations.
