This is a comprehensive multivitamin and mineral supplement combined with L-Lysine (an essential amino acid your body needs but cannot make on its own). It works by providing your body with important vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that you may not be getting enough of from your daily diet.
Available Over The Counter
Get this from any pharmacy or chemist — no prescription needed.
Explore this drug
For adults, take one tablet or one tablespoon (15ml) of syrup once or twice daily, preferably with food to help your body absorb the nutrients better. Follow the specific instructions on the brand you buy, such as Jawaron Tonic or Mezvite Multivitamin Syrup, as dosages may vary slightly between brands.
If you miss a dose, just take it as soon as you remember. But if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue as normal. Do not take a double dose to make up for the one you missed — it is just a supplement, so missing one dose is not dangerous.
Always buy from a reputable pharmacy — avoid buying supplements from roadside sellers or markets as they may be expired, fake, or poorly stored in the sun. This supplement is not a replacement for eating a balanced diet with good Nigerian foods like vegetables, beans, eggs, and fruits. Keep the syrup form away from children as accidental overdose of iron-containing products can be very dangerous for small children.
If you are taking antibiotics like tetracycline or ciprofloxacin, take this supplement at least 2 hours apart because the iron and minerals can stop the antibiotic from working properly. Antacids and ulcer drugs can reduce how well your body absorbs the iron and zinc in this supplement. Avoid taking with tea or coffee close to your dose time as they reduce iron absorption.
Check your specific combination
Is it safe to take L-Lysine with your other drugs?
Generally considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and many pregnant women actually need these nutrients, but consult your doctor or midwife first to confirm the right dosage and ensure the vitamin A level is safe for you.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat — this is important in Nigeria's hot weather as heat can spoil the vitamins. Keep the bottle tightly closed, especially for syrups, and always keep out of reach of children. Do not store in the bathroom where there is moisture.
For information only — not medical advice. Always talk to a doctor or pharmacist before changing your medication.
