Drug Uses
Vitаmin C is a vitamin that is necessary for normal growth and development.
How to use
Use Vitаmin C as directed by your doctor.
Take Vitаmin C by mouth with or without food.
Chew a pіll before swallowing.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Vitаmin C.
Drug Class and Mechanism
Vitаmin C is required for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of your body. It is necessary to form collagen, an important protein used to make skin, scar tissue, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels. Vitаmin C is essential for the healing of wounds, and for the repair and maintenance of cartilage, bones, and teeth.
The body cannot store vitamins. Leftover amounts of the vitamins leave the body through the urine. That means you need a continuous supply of such vitamins in your diet.
A severe form of vitаmin C deficiency is known as scurvy, which mainly affects older, malnourished adults.
Missed Dose
If you miss a dose of Vitаmin C and are taking it regularly, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule.
Storage
Store Vitаmin C at room temperature, between 68 and 77 degrees F (20 and 25 degrees C). Store away from heat, moisture, and light. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep in a tight, light-resistant container. Keep Vitаmin C out of the reach of children and away from pets.

Warnings/Precautions
Taking megadoses of vitаmin C may lead to kidney damage, diarrhea, iron overload and accelerated atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). It increases the risk of kidney stones in some people. If stopped abruptly, it may result in rebound scurvy (vitаmin C deficiency). Doses between 2000 and 5000 mg per day may have anti-coagulant properties, making it difficult for people to stop bleeding.
