Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Codesoft Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor. Taking this medicine with food or milk helps to combat its side effects.

Codesoft Capsule contains two active ingredients:

Cod Liver Oil (300 mg): This ingredient works by inhibiting an enzyme called acyl CoA:1,2-diacylglycerol acyltransferase in your body. It helps your liver burn fat more efficiently and decreases the production of new fat, helping to lower triglyceride levels.
Evening Primrose Oil (500 mg): This ingredient provides gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) which can be obtained from the diet or produced naturally by the body through the desaturation of linoleic acid by Δ6 desaturase. The presence of GLA helps maintain an optimal balance of fatty acids in your body.

Pregnancy

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

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, it's advisable to discuss it with your doctor before starting Codesoft Capsule. Your doctor will guide you based on your condition and the health of your baby.

Liver

If you have liver issues, discuss them with your doctor before starting Codesoft Capsule. This medicine may affect liver function, so caution is advised.

Kidney
