General description: | Folic acid, a water-soluble B vitamin, is present in several food products. As it is not produced in the human body, diet is one of the easiest ways to obtain it. It plays a major role in the biochemical synthesis and repair of DNA and is used in the management of megaloblastic anemias, neural tube defects such as anencephaly and spina bifida. Pharmaceutical drug forms of folic acid are desirable for supplementing its consumption through the diet. |
