Deplin Information:
What is Deplin?
Deplin is a medical food that consists of L-methylfolate or levomefolic acid. A medical food is specially formulated to nutritionally manage a disease under the guidance of a healthcare provider. Deplin is specifically prescribed to treat major depressive disorder (MDD). L-methylfolate is the metabolically active form of folic acid, also known as vitamin B9. The body has to carry out several processes in order to convert the form of B9 found in most foods into its usable form, L-methylfolate. Many people’s bodies are either completely unable or partially unable to convert B9 to this form that the body needs for proper nutrition. There are many reasons that this may occur including genetics, illness, lifestyle, and the use of certain medications. Research has indicated that around 70% of people with depression have an enzyme defect that interferes with the processing of folic acid. This vitamin is imperative for healthy neurotransmission. Once a patient begins taking this already processed form of B9, they are able to obtain the necessary the nutritional benefits.
How do I take Deplin?
Buy Deplin using a coupon from HelpRx in your local pharmacy. Deplin comes as a capsule to be taken orally once per day. Your doctor may prescribe 7.5 or 15mg per day which may be taken with a glass of water without regard to meal times. Try to take Deplin at the same time every day.
Before taking Deplin, tell your doctor if:
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have a history of bipolar disorder.
- You suspect that you might be allergic to vitamin B, folic acid, or any of the ingredients in Deplin.
- You have anemia or a vitamin B12 deficiency.
- You have ever had intestinal tumors.
What are the possible side effects of taking Deplin?
Because Deplin is a nutrient that the body needs for good health, there aren’t any known side effects. Patients may experience the same side effects as someone who takes a placebo. An allergic reaction to Deplin is not likely, but it is not impossible.
What if I forget to take a dose of Deplin?
If you miss a dose of Deplin, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it’s almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue on your regular schedule. Don’t take double doses to make up for missed ones.
How do I store Deplin?
Store Deplin in a tightly closed container at a room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Protect the capsules from light. Throw away any expired capsules.
What happens if I overdose on Deplin?
An overdose of vitamins, including vitamin B, can cause dangerous side effects. Taken in excessive quantities, vitamin B9 could result in nerve damage with symptoms such as pain, tingling and numbness, paralysis, lack of coordination, confusion, and weakness. If you think you may have overdosed and experience any of these systems contact your doctor at once or call the Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
