Features
The active ingredients of Lipoflavanoid include vitamin C, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, pantothenic acid and bioflavonoids.
Effects
The recommended dosage for adults is two caplets, three times a day. It can take up to six months before any noticeable changes take effect. Consult a physician before giving Lipoflavanoid to your child.
Considerations
Lipoflavanoid is available at health care supply stores and pharmacies such as CVS and Walgreens.
Warning
Talk to your physician if you think you may have tinnitus or Meniere's disease. Your physician can help you decide if you should take Lipoflavanoid or another type of medication.
