1. What is Juvit C and what is it used for
Vitamin C is involved in metabolic oxidation and reduction processes occurring in
cells, e.g. in the process of cellular respiration. It is necessary for the production of collagen, elastin
and intercellular substance, and thus for the proper development of cartilage, bone, teeth,
wound healing, and increased elasticity of blood vessels. It affects the production of immune bodies
in the body (it is believed to participate in the production of immunoglobulins and interferon) and facilitates
the absorption of iron in the intestines. It is necessary for the synthesis of adrenal steroids, catecholamines, insulin
and participates in the metabolism of aromatic amino acids and thyroxine metabolism.
Juvit C oral drops are intended for the treatment of vitamin C deficiency and prevention of diseases caused by vitamin C deficiency, primarily scurvy and its initial symptoms,
Moeller-Barlow disease, during convalescence, when using a diet low in vitamin C,
especially in artificially fed infants.
The medicine is especially recommended for children.

2. Important information before using Juvit C
When not to use Juvit C:
- if the patient is allergic to ascorbic acid or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if the patient has kidney stone disease caused by oxalate. High doses should not be given to people with excessive iron absorption from the gastrointestinal tract.
Warnings and precautions
In patients with a deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, the medicine may cause hemolysis of red blood cells.
The medicine, when given in high doses, may affect the results of laboratory tests, especially those performed using oxido-reduction methods (falsely positive test result for glucose in urine, falsely negative test result for blood in stool, reduction of enzyme activity test results). Depending on the method used, it may distort or reduce the results of bilirubin content measurements in blood serum.
Before starting to use Juvit C, you should consult a doctor or pharmacist or nurse.
Juvit C and other medicines
You should tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines that the patient is currently using or has recently used, as well as any medicines that the patient plans to use.
Administration of vitamin C with sulfonamides may lead to the precipitation of sulfonamide crystals in urine. Vitamin C:
- increases iron absorption;
- prolongs the half-life of paracetamol in the blood;
- acts synergistically with flavin glycosides;
- may affect the increase in estrogen levels in blood serum when used concomitantly. Tetracyclines, oral contraceptives, barbiturates, and high doses of acetylsalicylic acid reduce ascorbic acid levels in the blood.
Juvit C with food and drink
Infants and young children can be given the medicine added to food or drink.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
