Levocarnitine 500mg Tablets
SKU GME599Product Introduction
Levocarnitine 500mg replaces carnitine in primary systemic carnitine deficiency and selected secondary deficiencies caused by metabolic disorders. It is not established as a general weight-loss or exercise-performance treatment.
How to use
Swallow the tablets with water during or after meals, spreading divided doses through the day. Food and gradual adjustment can help stomach upset. Follow-up can include carnitine levels and symptoms of the underlying metabolic condition.
How it works
Carnitine transports long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, where they can be used to produce energy.
Side effects
Nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, diarrhoea and a fish-like body odour can occur.
Important information
Tell the clinician about seizure history, severe kidney disease and warfarin treatment. Oral and injectable carnitine products have different clinical roles.
Uses
- Primary systemic carnitine deficiency
- selected secondary carnitine deficiency
Benefits
Restores carnitine availability for fatty-acid energy metabolism in deficiency states.
Is it a proven fat-burning tablet?
No. Deficiency treatment should not be presented as an established weight-loss benefit.
Can it cause an unusual body smell?
Yes. A fish-like odour is a recognised effect and should be discussed if troublesome.
Why should a history of seizures be disclosed?
Seizures or increased seizure frequency have been reported during carnitine treatment.
Can it interact with warfarin?
Increased INR has been reported; additional anticoagulation monitoring may be needed.
Will taking more improve athletic performance?
More is not necessarily beneficial and can worsen gastrointestinal effects.
Can tablets replace dialysis-related injectable treatment?
Not automatically. Indication, route and handling of metabolites differ.
What if diarrhoea develops?
Report persistent symptoms; the clinician may adjust the schedule or amount.
Why are carnitine levels sometimes checked?
They help assess replacement in a diagnosed deficiency rather than relying on nonspecific energy symptoms.
