Vitamins

A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug classes.

Vitamins are substances that are required in very small amounts, for healthy growth and development. They occur naturally in certain foods but are not synthesized by humans and therefore it is essential to include it in the diet. Vitamins are either water soluble or fat soluble. Inadequate intake of any particular vitamin in the diet causes specific vitamin deficiency disease. Vitamin supplements are taken to correct inadequate intake in diet and to treat the deficiency.
