ফার্মাকোলজি

Mecobalamin is one of the two coenzyme forms of vitamin B12. It differs from cyanocobalamin in that the cyano group at the cobalt is replaced with a methyl group. It is a cofactor in the enzyme methionine synthase which functions to transfer methyl groups for the regeneration of methionine from homocysteine. It is required for integrity of myelin, neuronal function, proper red blood cell formation and DNA synthesis. Mecobalamin helps in the synthesis of neuronal lipids, regeneration of axonal nerves, promotes axonal transport and has neuroprotective activity.
