Tocotrex 400mg Capsule may be used as a nutritional supplement to provide tocotrienols.

• Antioxidant support: Tocotrienols have antioxidant activity and help protect cells from oxidative stress.

• Nutritional support: Provides a concentrated source of tocotrienols, which are forms of vitamin E.

• Lipid health support: Tocotrienols have been studied for their effects on blood lipid levels, but evidence of a clinically meaningful cholesterol-lowering effect is not consistent.

Tocotrex 400mg Capsule contains tocotrienols, which are naturally occurring forms of vitamin E. They can act as antioxidants by helping limit oxidative damage caused by free radicals.

Tocotrienols are also being studied for their effects on lipid metabolism, particularly their possible influence on cholesterol synthesis in the liver. However, clinical studies have produced mixed results, so Tocotrex should not be considered a substitute for established cholesterol-lowering treatment.

Tocotrienols are generally well tolerated, but high-dose vitamin E supplementation may interact with some medicines. Tell your doctor if you take:

• Anticoagulants or antiplatelet medicines: High-dose vitamin E may increase bleeding risk.

• Medicines for cholesterol: Tell your doctor if you are taking statins or other lipid-lowering medicines before starting a tocotrienol supplement.

• Other vitamin E or antioxidant supplements: Taking multiple supplements may increase your total vitamin E intake.

• Any long-term medicines: Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all supplements and medicines you take regularly.

• Store Tocotrex 400mg Capsule according to the instructions given on the product packaging.

• Keep the container tightly closed and protect it from excessive heat, moisture and direct sunlight.

High doses of vitamin E-related supplements may increase the risk of bleeding, particularly when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicines. Seek medical advice if you develop unusual bruising, prolonged bleeding or other unexpected symptoms.
