    Frequently asked questions

    • What is the recommended daily use of PCMed Ascorbic Acid?

      PCMed Ascorbic Acid can be taken one (1) capsule a day for kids and two (2) capsules a day for adults for daily maintenance of health. Overdosing up to 2 and 4 capsules a day for kids and adults, respectively, is recommended only for possible cold symptoms. 

    • Is there a recommended time to take PCMed Ascorbic Acid?

      There are no rules about the best time of the day to take PCMed Ascorbic Acid. Since it is non-acidic, it can be taken on an empty stomach. However, if stomach discomfort is experienced, it is recommended to take it with meals. 

    • What is the earliest age at which a child can start taking PCMed Ascorbic Acid?

      PCMed Ascorbic Acid is a non-acidic form of Vitamin C recommended for all consumers, including children, adults, pregnant women, and lactating mothers, as part of the 2015 Philippine Dietary Reference Intakes released by DOST (Department of Science and Technology)-FNRI (Food and Nutrition Research Institute). Considering the Tolerable Upper Intakes per day defined by WHO (World Health Organization) and DOST-FNRI, the recommendation for the youngest age to take PCMed Ascorbic Acid is 4 years old at a maximum of one (1) capsule per day. Since the product is in capsule format, PCMed Ascorbic Acid may be given to children by dissolving the contents of the capsule in beverages like juice. 

    • Are there any precautions in taking PCMed Ascorbic Acid at high dosages (e.g. 4 capsules a day)?

      FNRI recommends less than 2 grams or 2000 mg of sodium intake daily for adults. For every capsule of PCMed Ascorbic Acid, about 62mg is sodium. Taking 4 capsules a day will only give you 248mg sodium (on top of what you consume through diet). Precautions are only needed for those people with high blood pressure or on a low-sodium diet; otherwise, 4 capsules a day are safe for everyone. 

    • Is PCMed Ascorbic Acid tested to contain the right amount of sodium ascorbate?

      Yes, HPLC analysis is conducted for PCMed Ascorbic Acid to ensure the correct amount of product. 

    • Is PCMed Ascorbic Acid safe for pregnant and lactating women?

      PCMed Ascorbic Acid is safe for pregnant and lactating women, but we recommend consulting your physician first regarding the right dosage before using this product. 

    • Is PCMed Ascorbic Acid likely to have any side effects?

      PCMed Ascorbic Acid is generally safe as long as you do not exceed the upper limit of 2000 mg per day. When taken at that dosage, there may be mild side effects like diarrhea or dyspepsia. Since it contains sodium, it may also cause an increase in blood pressure, especially in people with hypertension or on a low-salt diet. If any side effects occur, consult a doctor immediately. 

    • Can someone who has high blood pressure and takes medication for maintenance use PCMed Ascorbic Acid?

      PCMed Ascorbic Acid contains sodium which may affect blood pressure, especially when the person has low-sodium diet restrictions. We suggest consulting your physician for the right dosage and other possible drug interactions with your maintenance medicines. 

    • Can someone who has a heart problem use PCMed Ascorbic Acid?

      PCMed Ascorbic Acid is generally safe to consume. However, it contains a minimal amount of sodium that may have an effect on people with heart conditions. Since we don’t know the extent of the consumer’s heart problem, we strongly recommend consulting with a doctor before consumption. 

    • Are there any medications that interact with PCMed Ascorbic Acid?

      When you are under medication for other drugs or if you have existing medical conditions, talk to your doctor first before using PCMed Ascorbic Acid. Drugs that may interact with Vitamin C include:

      • Protease inhibitors 
      • Tetracycline (other antibiotics in the same family include minocycline and doxycycline)
