1. What is Vitaminum E Hasco and what is it used for
Vitamin E is one of the essential nutrients. It is part of the system that protects cells from the effects of free oxygen radicals. It protects polyunsaturated fatty acids in cell membranes and other cell structures, stabilizes cell membranes and cell structures, and prevents the breakdown of red blood cells. Protection against oxidative damage appears to be important in the development and functioning of the nervous and muscular systems.
Vitamin E may also act as a cofactor in certain enzyme systems. It participates in the oxidation of glucose and glycogenolysis. It is involved in lipid metabolism: prostaglandins and cholesterol.
Epidemiological studies indicate a relationship between daily vitamin E intake and the risk of coronary heart disease, atherosclerosis, and other diseases whose mechanism of action is related to oxidative stress. Vitamin E reduces the activity of platelet aggregation.
Indications for use:
- treatment of vitamin E deficiency caused by prolonged improper nutrition and metabolic disorders;
- supportive: in atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, and its secondary prevention, as well as in all diseases whose cause (etiology) is related to oxidative stress.

Vitaminum E Hasco and other medicines
You should tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines you are taking, or have recently taken, and about any medicines you plan to take.

Taking other agents with antioxidant effects (vitamin C, selenium, ubiquinone, sulfur-containing amino acids) may alleviate some symptoms of vitamin E deficiency.
Taking iron preparations simultaneously may weaken the effect of vitamin E, so you should keep a few hours' interval between taking these medicines.
Vitamin E may reduce the need for insulin and digitalis glycosides (e.g., digoxin) and increase the absorption, utilization, and storage of vitamin A.
