- Lipoic or thioctic acid is required for the redox processes of the body, exhibits hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects, and has a detoxifying effect in case of intoxication;
- Iron (Fe) is present in hemoglobin and a number of enzymes;
- Calcium (Ca) is an essential macronutrient in the structure of bone tissue (the body of a healthy person contains more than 1 kg of pure calcium), required for muscle contraction (including heart muscle), blood clotting and synaptic transmission;
- Cobalt (Co) stimulates the processes of hematopoiesis and is part of cyanocobalamin;
- Magnesium (Mg) helps strengthen the immune system, ensures normal function of the cardiovascular system, eliminates rhythm disturbances and myocardial excitability;
- Manganese (Mn), along with calcium, takes part in the formation and mineralization of bone tissue;
- Copper (Cu) is required for normal iron metabolism and is involved in the supply of oxygen to tissues;
- Zinc (Zn) is present in many enzyme systems, ensures the production of insulin, as well as other hormones, and is involved in tissue regeneration;
- Phosphorus (P) is necessary for the formation of bone tissue and teeth, participates in the formation of high-energy compounds and in energy transport.
Contraindications and side effects
“Biomax” vitamins (medical reviews confirm this) cannot be dangerous. This is partly true, but we still must not forget that vitamins are still a serious medical drug, so uncontrolled use can cause some side effects. And although they are quite rare, it is still worth keeping this fact in mind.
Due to the large number of different vitamins, macro- and microelements in the composition of this vitamin complex, you must carefully read the instructions for the drug, since some of the components can cause an individual allergic reaction. First of all, this concerns selenium, since most often it is to which allergies occur. Therefore, if a person is prone to allergies, then the use of this vitamin complex should be abandoned and the option of using multivitamins should be considered, thereby completely eliminating the risk of developing allergic reactions in the body.
Indications for use
The Bio-Max multivitamin complex is used for the treatment and prevention of hypovitaminosis:
- Seasonal vitamin deficiency;
- Prolonged mental and physical stress;
- Some gastrointestinal diseases (chronic gastritis, colitis and enteritis);
- Decreased immunity after illness, injury, surgery and taking antibiotics;
- Poor nutrition.
Bio-Max is effective during adolescence, which is accompanied by intensive growth, as well as during pregnancy and lactation.
special instructions
During the period of taking Bio-Max, urine may turn bright yellow. This is explained by the presence of riboflavin (vitamin B2) in the tablets. This reaction is considered normal and is not a reason to discontinue the drug.
The simultaneous use of Bio-Max with other drugs containing vitamins and minerals is not recommended. The pharmacological interaction of this vitamin-mineral complex with other drugs is not described in the instructions. However, it is recommended to discuss the possibility of simultaneous use of any other medication with your doctor.
There are currently no cases of overdose of Bio-Max vitamins reported.
Bio-Max, instructions for use: method and dosage
To prevent hypovitaminosis, as well as during the recovery period after illness, surgery and injury, it is recommended to take 1 tablet per day after meals. The same dose of Bio-Max can be taken during pregnancy and for children over 12 years of age.
The greatest effect is observed with a course of therapy of 3 to 4 months.
For hypovitaminosis, for therapeutic purposes, it is recommended to take 1 Bio-Max tablet twice a day for a month. A repeat course can be carried out after 3-6 months.
Vitamins
The Biomax multivitamin complex has a basic set of vitamins designed specifically for Russians. When creating it, food, climate conditions and the lifestyle of citizens were taken into account.
Description
Biomax multivitamins contain 12 vitamins and minerals with microelements in the amount of 8 pieces needed by a person. The drug is required for:
- maintaining energy reserves in the body;
- collagen synthesis in connective tissues and neurotransmitters;
- body protection;
- functioning of the nervous system without failures;
- rapid healing of wounds;
- tissue development and differentiation;
- improving the body's resistance to stress;
- good condition of the skin, gums, blood vessels, teeth, hair and bone tissue;
- providing an antioxidant effect.
Pharmacodynamics
The vitamins and minerals that form the complex determine its pharmacodynamics.
Vitamin A:
- required to ensure normal functioning of the eyes;
- improves protective functions against infection of the mucous membrane and skin;
- needed to participate in the synthesis of lipids, mucopolysaccharides and proteins.
Vitamins belonging to group B help in the formation of various types of enzymes, which ensures the regulation of metabolism. The synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine occurs with the help of vitamin B1.
Energy metabolism and the process of biological oxidation occur with the participation of vitamin B2.
The way Bio-Max works is the result of the combined effects of its components, and these cannot be tracked using a bioassay or marker, so kinetic observations cannot be made.
Vitamin B5 , becoming a participant in the synthesis of phospholipids, active substances and steroid hormones, and metabolic processes, ensures tissue development and its differentiation.
Lipid, protein and carbohydrate processes cannot occur without the participation of vitamin B6.
Vitamin B12 has become a participant in the exchange of protein, lipids and carbohydrates. Vitamin C is involved in the following processes:
- decreased permeability of vascular walls;
- regeneration of cartilage tissue and bones;
- oxidation of biologically active substances;
- increased absorption of iron in the intestine;
- stimulation of the formation of steroid hormones;
- carbohydrate metabolism.
Iron is a component of hemoglobin and a number of enzymes. Cobalt is included in vitamin B12 and stimulates blood formation processes. Copper transports oxygen to tissues and normalizes iron metabolism.
Calcium is a basic element in bone tissue, which is necessary for muscle contraction, transmission of nerve impulses and blood clotting. Most enzyme systems include zinc, which is important in tissue regeneration and in the synthesis of insulin and other hormones.
Magnesium is needed to improve immunity and restore the myocardium. Lipoic acid is an antioxidant that has a detoxifying and hypolipidemic effect during intoxication. Folic acid is involved in the synthesis of nucleic acids and also stimulates erythropoiesis.

Reviews
Inessa, 25 years old:
The gynecologist prescribed Bio-Max, one tablet per day, with plenty of water. When I went to the pharmacy, the sellers began to entice me with expensive drugs, saying they were much more effective. I was afraid for the child and bought what the doctor prescribed.
The product may be cheap, but effective. Due to pregnancy, my hair began to fall out, and my general condition was depressed, and Bio-Max returned me to my previous mood and desire to move mountains, despite the pregnancy.
I recommend it to all expectant and nursing mothers!
Igor, 45 years old:
A month ago I started taking Bio-Max, but I didn’t believe in the results. It seemed that these were just pills that did neither harm nor benefit. A terrible malaise haunted me after the removal of appendicitis. Prescribed Bio-Max. Now I am full of energy, working in my workshop and believing in medicine.
Valentina, 33 years old:
After a caesarean section I started taking Bio-Max multivitamins. Already on the third day, nausea and dizziness appeared that lasted several hours. I went to the clinic and they said that everything was fine, and that this was just an individual reaction. Perhaps an allergy to one of the vitamins or a substance from the drug. This is how I restored my body!
