S-Adimer 200 Tablet contains S-Adenosyl L-Methoinine Disulfate Tosylate, also known as SAMe, a nutritional supplement, that can restore Glutathione concentrations in the liver and also improves liver damage. SAMe is also involved in many biochemical reactions in the human body that regulate the growth, death and differentiation of hepatocytes (liver cells). Because liver function is compromised in people suffering from liver disease, supplementation with S-Adimer 200 Tablet is beneficial.
Following oral administration of ademetionine, peak plasma concentrations are achieved 3-5 hrs after ingestion of enteric-coated tablets (400-1000 mg). Oral bioavailability is enhanced when ademetionine is administered under fasting conditions.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
