Can Foltanx Cause Light Headedness And Weakness?
Was prescribed Foltanx as I do not absorb vitamins well. I have leaky gut syndrome, and Hashimoto thyroiditis, hardly any adrenal and hormone function and also anemia.. I eat very well, and use good sources of vitamins and minerals, but this PA recommended Foltanx along with Armour thyroid plus C-prog/DHEA Troche in (200/5) form. I have had stomach aches with feeling of light headedness and weakness since I started this protocol 4 days ago. I believe it is the Foltanx. What are your feelings on this.

Hi,
thanks for writing to hcm.
I understand your anxiousness.
It is highly unlikely that foltanx which contains MECOBALAMIN/LEVOMEFOLATE CALCIUM/PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE can lead to side effects of weakness as these are vitaminB .
Your light headedness could be due to hormonal imbalance. The medications shall take 2 weeks to show its effects.
