Vitamins Revit have been known since Soviet times. Previously, almost all people took them, but now many make a choice in favor of multivitamin complexes produced by domestic and Western pharmaceutical companies.
Features of multivitamins Revit
The Revit complex is one of the cheapest when compared with other vitamins. But if there are indications for admission and a lack of retinol, thiamine, riboflavin in the body, they can replace expensive drugs.
Vitamins Revit are produced in the form of spherical yellow or orange-yellow dragees. The surface of the balls should be smooth and even. Revit is packed in polymer cans of 50 or 100 pcs. in each.
Revit contains vitamins obtained in the laboratory by synthetic means. With their help, you can compensate for the deficiency of vitamins A, C, B1 and B2 necessary for the body.
