Introduction to Levowel (Levocarnitine Injection 1 Gm)
Levowel is an intravenous Levocarnitine supplement designed to restore carnitine levels in patients with metabolic disorders and chronic kidney disease (CKD). It plays a crucial role in cellular energy production and fatty acid metabolism.
Uses of Levowel
Treatment of primary systemic carnitine deficiency
Management of secondary carnitine deficiency in dialysis patients
Adjunct therapy for inborn metabolic disorders affecting energy production
Benefits of Levowel
Essential for energy metabolism and fatty acid oxidation
Prevents carnitine depletion in CKD and hemodialysis patients
Supports muscle function and reduces fatigue
Intravenous formulation ensures rapid absorption and efficacy
Mechanism of Action of Levowel
Levocarnitine facilitates the transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, enabling their breakdown for ATP production. It also removes toxic metabolic byproducts, promoting cellular energy balance and reducing muscle fatigue.
