Pharmacodynamics
group B Vitamin (VS vitamin, B9 vitamin). Fills shortage of folic acid.
In an organism it will be transformed to a coenzyme (tetrahydrofolic acid) which participates in various metabolic processes and necessary for normal maturing of megaloblasts and formation of normoblasts. At deficiency of folic acid the megaloblastny type of a hemopoiesis develops. Stimulates an erythrogenesis, participates in synthesis of amino acids (including methionine, serine, glycine), nucleic acids, purines, pyrimidines, in exchange of sincaline, a histidine. At pregnancy performs protective function in relation to action on a fruit of teratogenic and disturbing factors.
