Jul 28, 2022

Introduction

LCARNITIME 500 contains Levocarnitine 500 mg, a naturally occurring amino acid derivative that plays a crucial role in energy production and fat metabolism. It is widely used in patients with L-carnitine deficiency, certain metabolic disorders, cardiac conditions, and to support athletic performance and muscle function. Manufactured under WHO-GMP-certified standards, this supplement ensures high purity and efficacy.

What is Levocarnitine?

Levocarnitine (also known as L-carnitine) is essential for the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are oxidized to generate energy. It is naturally produced in the body but may be deficient in certain medical or genetic conditions.

LCARNITIME 500 Tablet Uses

Levocarnitine 500 mg is recommended in the management of:

  • Primary and secondary carnitine deficiency

  • Fatty acid oxidation disorders

  • Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)

  • Congestive heart failure (CHF)

  • Peripheral arterial disease

  • Hyperlipidemia

  • Male infertility (improves sperm motility)

  • Muscle weakness or mitochondrial myopathies

  • Kidney dialysis (end-stage renal disease)

  • Athletic recovery and exercise performance

Mechanism of Action – How LCARNITIME 500 Works

Levocarnitine facilitates the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they undergo β-oxidation to generate ATP (energy). It also assists in removing excess acyl groups and prevents toxic accumulation of fatty acids, improving cellular energy balance, especially in muscle and heart tissue.
