BioSil Capsule is primarily used as a dietary supplement to improve the health of your hair, skin, and nails. This combination medicine falls within the class of nutritional supplements.

This medicine also promotes collagen production in your body. Collagen is a protein that provides structure and elasticity to your skin, hair, and connective tissues. Therefore, stimulating collagen synthesis can potentially enhance skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, strengthen hair, and fortify nails.

You should take this capsule orally as directed by your doctor. Before starting on this medicine, make sure to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications you might be taking. If you notice any side effects while on this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. It's important to continue taking the capsule for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Diarrhoea

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of BioSil Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Excessive Sweating: Try to stay in a cool environment and drink plenty of water.
Diarrhoea: Drink plenty of healthy fluids to stay hydrated and follow the diet recommended by your doctor.

BioSil Capsule contains two active ingredients:

Choline (100 mg): This essential nutrient functions similarly to B vitamins. It plays vital roles in brain development and function, liver metabolism, and transportation of nutrients throughout the body.
Silicon (5 mg): Although the role of silicon in human health isn't entirely clear yet, it is believed to be involved in bone and collagen formation. Some studies indicate that dietary silicon intake may improve bone mineral density.

These ingredients work together to contribute to the overall benefits of BioSil Capsule in supporting hair, skin and nail health through collagen production.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking BioSil Capsule if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using BioSil Capsule.

Alcohol

it's always wise to limit alcohol usage during the course of any medicine.

Liver

As choline plays a crucial role in liver metabolism, if you have any liver health issues, it's advisable to discuss them with your doctor before starting BioSil Capsule.

Kidney

Silicon is mainly excreted by the kidneys. If you have kidney problems, it's a good idea to consult your doctor before taking BioSil Capsule.

Using Machines & Driving

There's no effect of BioSil Capsule on your ability to drive or operate machinery. But always remember, health comes first.

Allergy

If you know you're allergic to either choline or silicon, avoid taking BioSil Capsule. If any allergic reactions occur, stop taking the medicine and consult your doctor immediately.

Children

BioSil Capsule isn't generally recommended for use in children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take BioSil Capsule under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Anticholinergic Drugs: Choline may interact with anticholinergic medications such as atropine or scopolamine, potentially reducing their effectiveness.
Blood Thinners: There is a potential interaction between choline and blood thinners like warfarin. Choline may affect the metabolism of vitamin K, which is essential for blood clotting, thereby potentially altering the effectiveness of anticoagulant therapy.
Calcium Supplements: High doses of silicon can affect calcium metabolism and its absorption. Therefore, taking BioSil Capsule with calcium supplements might alter calcium levels in the body, necessitating monitoring of calcium status.
Phospholipid Metabolism Medications: Medications that affect phospholipid metabolism, such as certain statins like atorvastatin, may have interactions with choline.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no known food interactions with BioSil Capsule.

Drug-Disease Interactions

BioSil Capsule interacts with the following diseases:

Renal Impairment: The silicon in BioSil Capsule is primarily excreted by the kidneys. Therefore, people with renal impairment should use this supplement cautiously.
Pregnancy and Lactation: Though choline intake is considered safe during these periods, the safety of silicon supplementation is not well established. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before taking BioSil Capsule.

Daily Dose

You should take BioSil Capsule as your doctor prescribes. The recommended dosage can vary based on individual factors such as your body's response to the medication and the severity of your condition. Follow the prescribed dosage and avoid exceeding it without consulting your doctor for further details.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take BioSil Capsule at its scheduled time, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your usual dosage schedule. Never adjust your dosage without talking to your doctor.
