   BioparTMdelta-FORTE is an orally administered prescription hematopoietic preparation for therapeutic use formulated for adult macrocytic anemia patients – specifically including pernicious anemia patients, ages 12 and up, who are under specific direction and monitoring of cobalamin and folate status by a physician.

   Cobalamin-intrinsic factor concentrate (non-inhibitory)1 .............................................................................................. 1 NF Units§

   Adenosylcobalamin (coenzyme B12) .............................................................................................................................. 50 mcg

   Formyl folic acid, L-FTHf .............................................................................................................................................. 2.5 mg2

   Methyl folic acid, L-MeTHf ............................................................................................................................................... 7 mg2

      1 50 mcg Vitamin B12 (activity equivalent) and 50 mg of intrinsic factor concentrate§ from ultra-purified, porcine-derived stomach substance from a porcine, disease-free country; together these equal 1 NF Units. Cobalamin has hematopoietic activity apparently identical to that of the anti-anemia factor in purified liver-stomach extract

      2 Total folates is from l-methylfolate magnesium (molar equivalent) from amorphous, diastereoisomerically pure l-methylfolate (less than 1% d-isomer), DHF-dependent provitamin B9 (folic acid included) and the levo-isomer of folinic acid (label claim molar equivalent).

ALSO CONTAINS:

      25 mg ascorbates4a (24 mg magnesium l-ascorbate, 1 mg zinc l-ascorbate) [antioxidant], 13.6 mg chelates (Cys-Fe3 as cysteinated pure amino acid chelate subsisting of 1.5 mg elemental iron4a) [colorant], phospholipids (phosphatidylserine-docosahexaenoic acid complex5)

OTHER INGREDIENTS:

      Annatto [colorant], betaine (trimethylglycine) [acidifier], citrates (citric acid, sodium citrate) [stabilizers], flavin adenine dinucleotide (B2-vitamer)4b, gelatin (bovine), glycerine, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydride (B3-vitamer)4b, phospholipids (sunflower lecithin) [emulsifiers], piperine [bioavailability enhancer], purified water, pyridoxal 5’ phosphate (B6-vitamer)4b, thiamine pyrophosphate (B1-vitamer)4b, ubidecarenone [antioxidant], yellow beeswax.

BioparTM delta-FORTE is specifically indicated as a primary and adjunctive treatment in pernicious anemia patients having idiosyncrasy or sensitivity to parenteral administration - or when parental therapy is refused;

COBALAMIN [TREATMENT]; FOLATE [PREVENTION]; INTRINSIC FACTOR [B12-ADJUVENT] -

Cobalamin is essential for the synthesis of methionine from homocysteine - a reaction which also requires folate. In the absence of cobalamin - ie, cobalamin deficiency, tetrahydrofolate cannot be regenerated from l-methylfolic acid, and a functional folate deficiency occurs - ie, “methyl trap hypothesis”. Gastrointestinal absorption of cobalamin depends on the presence of sufficient intrinsic factor, and lack of intrinisic factor results in cobalamin deficiency.

   The adult dose is one capsule daily preferably on an empty stomach.

   A deficiency of cobalamin may present first as folate deficiency - which is why folate supplementation may mask the symptoms that would normally result and also why advanced folate supplementation requires licensed medical supervision; because of this, reticulocyte plasma count, cobalamin and folate must be obtained prior to treatment. Requirements of cobalamin and/or folate in excess of normal (due to pregnancy, thyrotoxicosis, hemolytic anemia, hemorrhage, malignancy, hepatic and renal disease) can usually be met with oral supplementation. 

   As a general rule - in Pernicious Anemia patients, treatment will be required for the remainder of the patient’s life, and usually requires weekly or monthly injections at the doctor's office. Patients that are non-compliant with parenteral therapy (injections) may use this product as a substitute ONLY UNDER THE DIRECT SUPERVISION OF A LICENSED MEDICAL PRACTITIONER. 

   Mild transient diarrhea, polycythemia vera, itching, transitory exanthema, feeling of swelling of entire body may occur with administration of cobalamin. Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folate.

   Sensitivity to porcine intrinsic factor derived from liver substance has been reported in patients, and may occur at any time; BioparTMdelta-FORTE contains a non-inhibitory form of intrinsic factor that is not derived from liver substance but rather just the mucosa (stomach substance) - in which such senstitivity is less likely to occur, however caution is advised and continuous monitoring under licensed medical supervision is required.

GENERAL:

      0.1 mg or more of folic acid daily may obscure pernicious anemia in that the hematological remission may occur while neurological manifestations remain progressive. The safe tolerable limit for folic acid (in preparations) is 1 mg [emphasis added];

      Folic acid is not a substitute for vitamin B12 - although it may improve vitamin B12-deficient anemias. Exclusive use of folic acid in treating vitamin B12-deficient anemias could result in progressive and irreversible neurologic damage. Specifically, vitamin B12 deficiency allowed to progress over 3 months may produce permanent degenerative lesions of the spinal cord - as observed when folate therapy is used as the only hematopoietic agent;

      Doses of vitamin B12 exceeding 10 mcg daily may produce hematologic response in patients with folate deficiency. Indiscriminate administration may mask the true diagnosis; and -

      A dietary deficiency of only vitamin B12 is rare; multiple vitamin deficiency is expected in any dietary deficiency. No single regimen fits all cases, and the status of the patient observed in follow-up is the final criterion for adequacy of therapy.

DRUG INTERACTIONS:

      Colchicine, para-aminosalicylic acid, and heavy alcohol intake for longer than 2 weeks may produce malabsorption of cobalamin.

      Epileptic, antineoplastic and Parkinson's medications are cautioned in the concimant use with folate supplementation.

   BioparTM delta-FORTE is supplied as oval, annatto (”orangish-brown”) softgels* with imprint "7N3". Provided as a carton with 30 softgels in blister cards. NDC 64661-793-30.

BioparTM delta-FORTE is regulated as a drug to ensure it's use is under medical supervision, and because of this, advanced folate supplementation is possible [21 CFR 250.201]. Intrinsic Factor was first marketed as Extralin(R) in 1932, and Extralin-B(R) with B-vitamins in 1936, followed by the Becotin(R) product which contained all the equivalent vitamins as this product plus intrinsic factor. "Old" drugs, including virtamins, which were considered safe prior to 1938, were permitted to continue on the market without further review. However, FDA maintained the authority to review these old drugs if possible safety concerns became apparent. In 1951, the Durham-Humphrey Act was passed. This act formally differentiated between prescription and OTC drugs. - 44 FR 16131 (March 16, 1979).
