Alpha-tocopherol is an important form of vitamin E with powerful antioxidant effects. In Hong Kong, alpha-tocopherol is commonly used to protect cells from oxidative stress damage and help maintain good health. It helps protect cell membranes from free radical damage, promotes immune system function, and aids in cardiovascular health and skin care. Alpha-tocopherol can also help slow down the aging process, maintain eye health, and promote blood circulation. In daily life, it can be supplemented through dietary intake of foods rich in alpha-tocopherol, such as nuts, seeds, vegetable oils and green leafy vegetables. In the medical field, alpha-tocopherol is also used as a supplement to treat certain diseases or deficiency symptoms. Before using medication, consult your doctor for appropriate advice.
Instructions for use: Take 1 capsule daily, preferably after meals to increase absorption rate. Avoid taking it with high-fat foods as it may affect the absorption of the medicine. Avoid overdosing on vitamin E-rich foods or supplements while taking this medication to avoid overdose.
Dosage Guidelines: The recommended daily dose for adults is 200 to 400 international units. The specific dose can be adjusted based on personal needs and physician recommendations. Dosage for children varies based on age and weight, but lower doses are generally recommended and should be followed as directed by your physician. During any dose adjustment, care should be taken to ensure that the upper safe daily limit is not exceeded. If you have any adverse reactions or concerns, you should consult your physician immediately.
Alpha Tocopherol is a vitamin E supplement with common side effects including diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea and headaches. Some people may experience allergic skin reactions such as red rash or itching.

Alpha-tocopherol is a vitamin E supplement commonly used to provide the body with the vitamin E it needs. During pregnancy, the following precautions must be taken:
1. Alpha-tocopherol should be used under the guidance of a doctor before and during pregnancy. Please consult your doctor about correct dosage and administration.
2. Please avoid overdose of Alpha-tocopherol as high doses may be harmful to the fetus. Always follow your doctor's advice.
3. If you are taking other medications, please inform your doctor as Alpha-tocopherol may interact with certain medications.
4. Alpha-tocopherol is generally considered relatively safe, but should still be used with caution during pregnancy. If you notice any symptoms of discomfort, please inform your doctor immediately.
5. Try to get your vitamin E intake through your diet rather than relying on Alpha-tocopherol supplements.
In summary, caution should be exercised when using any medication during pregnancy, including Alpha-tocopherol. Please follow your doctor's instructions and pay close attention to your own health and the health of your baby. If you have any questions, please consult your doctor immediately. I wish you and your baby good health and happiness!
