C-VITAN Z EFF TABS 20S (VITAMIN C WITH ZINC)

Overview & Mechanism of Action

• C-Vitan Z Effervescent Tablets (20s pack) provides a dual-action micronutrient formulation engineered for rapid gastrointestinal absorption and maximal cellular immune support:
• Cellular Immunity & Phagocytic Function (Vitamin C / Ascorbic Acid 1000mg): Stimulates the production, motility, and pathogen-killing capability of white blood cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, and phagocytes). Vitamin C accumulates in immune cells to enhance phagocytosis and microbial destruction while protecting host tissue from self-induced oxidative damage during active infections.
• T-Lymphocyte Maturation & Antiviral Defense (Elemental Zinc 10mg): Acts as a structural cofactor for over 300 enzymatic processes. Zinc is essential for T-lymphocyte development, natural killer (NK) cell function, and gene transcription involved in inflammatory regulation. It also directly interferes with viral replication cycles within nasal and respiratory mucosal linings.
• Epithelial Barrier Support & Collagen Synthesis: Vitamin C acts as an obligatory cofactor for proline and lysine hydroxylation during collagen cross-linking, reinforcing the structural integrity of skin, blood vessels, and mucosal membranes to prevent pathogen entry.
• Effervescent Delivery System: Dissolving the tablet in water creates a buffered solution that accelerates gastric emptying and intestinal uptake, minimizing stomach irritation associated with high-dose ascorbic acid swallowing tablets.

• C-Vitan Z Effervescent Tablets 20s is indicated for:
• Prophylaxis and symptomatic support during seasonal viral infections, common colds, and upper respiratory tract illnesses
• Shortening the duration and severity of cold and flu symptoms upon onset
