Description
CANTHEX CAPSULE
CANTHEX CAPSULE is a dietary supplement manufactured by Curatio Healthcare Pvt Ltd. It is formulated to support skin health, metabolic functions, and overall well-being.
Composition
Each hard gelatin capsule contains:
- Alpha Lipoic Acid: 200 mg (provides energy for cellular repair, acts as a potent antioxidant, and helps neutralize free radicals)
- Biotin (Vitamin B7): 5 mg (supports new cell production, promotes healthy skin, hair, and nails)
- Chromium Polynicotinate: 200 mcg (improves skin appearance by reducing redness and inflammation, and plays a role in regulating blood sugar levels)
- Zinc Sulphate (Monohydrate): 25 mg (regulates sebum production, supports immune function, wound healing, and cellular repair)
Uses
CANTHEX CAPSULE is primarily used as a skin supplement to:
- Reduce the appearance of discoloration and pigmentation, especially on the neck, armpits, knuckles, and other skin folds.
- Treat Acanthosis nigricans, a skin condition causing dark discoloration in body folds and creases.
- Support cellular repair and provide antioxidant protection.
- Promote new cell production and improve overall skin texture and tone.
- Regulate sebum production to prevent excessive oiliness or dryness.
It also contributes to metabolic health by aiding in glucose metabolism, energy production, enhancing insulin sensitivity, and supporting immune and nerve health.
Dosage and Administration
Take 1-2 CANTHEX Capsules twice daily after meals, or as directed by a healthcare professional. The capsule should be swallowed whole with water and not broken, chewed, or crushed. For visible results, it is often recommended to take for a minimum of 3-6 months.
Side Effects
While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience side effects such as:
- Nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, or stomach upset.
- Metallic taste in the mouth.
- Rarely, dull skin, skin discoloration, or excess sebum on the skin.
- In some cases, itching, rashes, or pimples may occur; if so, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms of an allergic reaction such as skin rash, itching, swelling (especially of the face, tongue, or throat, or eyes), severe dizziness, or breathing difficulty.
Precautions
- Inform your doctor about all existing medical conditions and any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
- If you have known allergies to any of the ingredients, avoid using this medicine and inform your doctor.
- Pregnant and lactating women should consult a healthcare provider before taking CANTHEX CAPSULE.
- Individuals with diabetes should consult their doctor before use, as Alpha Lipoic Acid can interact with anti-diabetes drugs and Chromium Polynicotinate affects glucose metabolism.

- This product is not a substitute for a varied diet.
- Maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and managing weight are recommended, especially for conditions like Acanthosis nigricans.
