Methylcobalamin acts as a cofactor in various metabolic processes, including the synthesis of myelin (the protective sheath around nerve fibers). Ginkgo Biloba is thought to improve blood flow by dilating blood vessels and inhibiting platelet aggregation. The combination of these two ingredients may contribute to improved cognitive function, nerve health, and overall circulation.
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
The recommended dosage of methylcobalamin and ginkgo biloba varies depending on individual needs and medical advice. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate dosage.

While moderate alcohol consumption is generally safe, excessive alcohol use can interfere with the absorption of vitamin B12. It's advisable to discuss alcohol intake with your healthcare provider.
As dizziness and headache are potential side effects, it's best to avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how the medication affects you.
Consult your healthcare provider before taking this combination if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. While methylcobalamin is generally safe, the effects of ginkgo biloba during pregnancy or breastfeeding are not well established.
This combination is not typically recommended for children, as the safety and efficacy in this population have not been thoroughly investigated.
Individuals with kidney disease should exercise caution, as methylcobalamin can accumulate in the body if kidney function is impaired.
Individuals with liver disease should also exercise caution, as the effects of ginkgo biloba on liver function are not fully understood.
