Vitamins Merz reviews
There are quite a lot of reviews: some are positive, some are negative. With Special Drops, in terms of reviews, everything is clear, the majority speak well of them, but there are also a number of opinions about the ineffectiveness of taking them. In addition, many note that the effect is only with the initial dose (and quite good and noticeable), but subsequent courses can be absolutely zero. Also, many are confused by the price (3 times more expensive than regular vitamin complexes), and the composition is not very rich.
The majority of those who were helped by this complex either had not very advanced cases, or it was a preventative spring treatment. In case of chronic conditions or already serious baldness, there was no effect (sometimes there was a worsening of the condition). Of course, there can be many reasons for poor hair health and vitamins cannot help in severe cases (often the reason is not a banal lack of microelements, but perhaps a third-party disease that causes such problems with hair), and people should take this into account and identify in their particular case why this is happening baldness. And if the complex does not help in their case, this does not mean that it is ineffective - it’s just that the problem was not a lack of vitamins, but something completely different.
With reviews of Pantovigar, the situation is not so clear. There are many reviews, neither positive nor negative. It seems like there is an effect, but not what was expected for such a high price (90 capsules - from 1500 rubles, 300 capsules - from 4000 rubles). By the way, it is the price that scares off many people and they never dare to purchase this product, and there are also a lot of reviews where this drug did not help people at all. There are also side effects, but not very often.
In addition, I would like to note the fact that a fairly large number of people purchased these vitamin complexes not in Russia, but, for example, in Germany. And vitamins from Europe, according to reviews, are more effective and not much more expensive.
For every modern woman, appearance plays a significant role. Only well-groomed hair, hands and nails can give self-confidence and strength. A beautiful woman succeeds in everything, and no experiments with appearance are scary if she has helpers. To protect beauty, Merz pill vitamins against hair loss are developed according to a special formula by German scientists.
Here is an article in which you will find information on use, user reviews on forums, side effects of the substance, etc.

Reviews
Irina.
This is not the first year I have been taking these capsules. I want to say that this is just a find. After I gave birth to the child. My teeth began to crumble and my hair began to fall out. I felt a terrible lack of vitamins. My skin has become absolutely terrible. It was scary to look in the mirror. I never thought that this would happen to me. But unfortunately, this is the reality. After drinking Merz, a month later the results were obvious. Oddly enough, but this is true. My face acquired a vibrant appearance and color, and the peeling stopped. I was so delighted that I simply cannot describe. Happiness knew no bounds. These are really cool vitamins.
Natalia
Great stuff. I use them all the time. Especially in winter. They help my face, hair and nails a lot. She didn’t believe that it would help like that. But now I’m sure that for me there’s no better complex to be found.
Inna
Good pills. They really help, keeping the appearance normal. I have two children. Each time after childbirth it was difficult to recover. My teeth constantly hurt and were falling out. I ate cottage cheese in large quantities, but it didn’t really help. Until I started taking these miracle pills. I restored everything and even more. I look and feel even better than before.
Oksana
I'm not young anymore. But vitamins are still required. And at my age they are needed more often. I don’t remember when I started taking these pills, but I know one thing. They really helped. Although I didn’t really believe it at first. It's good that everything turned out differently. I am very pleased. I recommend everyone to take care of their health.
Vika
Megacomplex. Simply unreal. As much as I drink, I am delighted with it. A long time ago my friend recommended it to me. At that time I still laughed and was skeptical. But in vain. Now I’m even glad that she made me drink them. My hair has become much more manageable, soft, almost silky. I'm happy as an elephant.
Lilya
I love vitamins and completely trust my health, but only to proven ones. The doctor prescribed this complex to me. Having said that I seem to have a vitamin deficiency in my body. Yes, I myself have recently felt that something was wrong with me. My hair started falling out, just in clumps. My nails were constantly splitting. I was very afraid to be left without my long hair. It’s good that I found a doctor who helped me. And, of course, thanks to these pills. They work wonders.
In winter I always feel that something is wrong with my body. And, of course, they are immediately switched to tablets. After three weeks I can already see noticeable results. Yes, and I feel lighter. Therefore, I am completely satisfied with them.
I want to tell my story. They write here that the complex helps hair, teeth and skin. I bought it for my eyes. My vision began to deteriorate sharply. The ophthalmologist prescribed them for me. I didn’t even dream that they would help. What a surprise I was when my eyes stopped watering so much and getting tired. Right now I can read a book and a magazine. I feel much better and more confident. Thanks to the Merz vitamin complex.
A series of drugs are sold in the form of dragees and tablets. The composition includes vitamins and minerals, especially necessary for hair and nails. The Merz complex is produced in Germany and is intended for people with hypovitaminosis and iron deficiency, as well as those facing deterioration in appearance. The active components of the drug normalize metabolism, slow down or stop the destruction of the structure of hair, skin, and nail plates. It is recommended to take these vitamins for patients who are malnourished and forced to adhere to a meager diet.
The series consists of three drugs:
- Merz special dragee. Indicated for the prevention and treatment of vitamin and microelement deficiency, which negatively affects appearance.
- Merz Special Anti-Age. Recommended for women and men over 35 years of age. Contains useful substances that nourish and strengthen organs and systems, accelerate cell regeneration, and activate the synthesis of collagen fibers.
- Merz Beauty. Intended to normalize the condition of colored and permed hair.
Component composition
The German drug is a good additional remedy for eliminating external and internal disorders of the body associated with hypovitaminosis. Merz is not a medicine, it is included in the category of dietary supplements. The composition contains the most essential substances for hair and nails:
- Retinol (A). It has a beneficial effect on epithelial tissues and prevents their destruction. Normalizes blood circulation in the skin layers, makes the skin firm and elastic.
- Beta carotene. Has a pronounced antioxidant effect.
- Tocopherol (E). A powerful antioxidant that slows down the aging process. Regulates cellular respiration.
- Ascorbic acid (C). Strengthens vascular walls.
- Biotin (H). Activates the growth of hairs and nail plates.
- Thiamine (B 1). Participates in carbohydrate metabolism. Normalizes the state of the nervous system.
- Riboflavin (B 2). Necessary for the regulation of cellular respiration.
- Nicotinic acid (B 3). Regulates lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Supports cellular respiration.
- Pantothenic acid (B 5). Stimulates water metabolism in skin tissues.
- Pyridoxine (B 6). Participates in protein metabolism.
- Cyanocobalamin (B 12). Necessary for normal hematopoietic function.
In addition to vitamins, the drug contains the following useful compounds:
- Cystine. An amino acid important for the strong structure of nail plates and accelerating growth processes in hair tissue.
- Iron. A trace element that maintains the optimal concentration of red blood cells in the blood and regulates the functions of the adrenal glands.
- Yeast extract. Supplier of amino acids, mineral elements and group B compounds to the body. Maintains normal condition of hair, epithelial tissues, and nail plates.
Effect on hair
Each component of the drug has a special effect on the hair. Of the substances contained in the pills, the hair needs cystine, group B compounds and beta-carotene for strengthening, proper nutrition and active growth. After a course of treatment, the following positive effects are noted:
- the thickness of the hair increases;
- dandruff disappears, the scalp stops itching;
- hair becomes silky and shiny;
- metabolism in hair follicles improves, thereby accelerating growth processes;
- dormant follicles wake up, resulting in bald patches being covered with new hairs;
- the volume of eyelashes increases.
Effect on nails
The condition of the nail plates worsens not only due to hypovitaminosis, but also due to negative external factors. Household chemicals, washing and hygiene products thin your nails and make them brittle. Vitamin and mineral deficiency aggravates the situation. Therefore, to normalize the condition of the nails and skin of the hands, doctors often prescribe Merz vitamins to their patients. Among the compounds contained in the preparation, iron and biotin benefit the nails. These components:
- accelerate the growth of nail fibers;
- eliminate fragility;
- thicken the nail plates;
- make nail color natural and healthy.
Effect on skin
The vitamins contained in the preparation actively nourish and moisturize the skin, protect it from negative factors. The dragee contains all the substances that improve blood circulation in the skin tissues, prevent the destruction of epithelial cells, and maintain the elastic structure of the skin. Vitamins C, E and A, which are strong antioxidants, inhibit the aging process of skin tissue.
Instructions for use
According to the instructions for use, you need to drink 2 tablets a day: one in the morning, the other in the evening. The course lasts from 2 to 3 months. If the deficiency of nutrients is severe, then it is permissible to extend the intake to 6 months. Before purchasing the drug, it is advisable to consult with a medical specialist to rule out an allergy to the components. The recommended dosage cannot be exceeded, otherwise iron entering the body in excess concentration can cause harm.
Contraindications and side effects
There are only two contraindications:
- intolerance to any component;
- childhood.
When taken correctly, the drug is harmless to nursing mothers and pregnant women. For pregnant and lactating women, the complex is useful as a remedy against hair loss. The main thing is to avoid overdose. Iron and retinol, entering the mother's body in excess quantities, can cause abnormalities in the development of the embryo. If a young mother inadvertently exceeds the permissible daily dose, she should immediately consult a doctor.
Side effects are observed only in case of overdose. Some patients swallow not one, but two or three pills at a time, believing that this way they will achieve a positive result faster. But each pill contains an optimally selected amount of useful substances, so exceeding the dosage can provoke an allergic reaction and other unpleasant symptoms. Usually an overdose is accompanied by:
- allergic rashes;
- disruption of the digestive tract;
- headaches, dizziness;
- numbness of the limbs;
- tachycardia;
- sweating
If the above symptoms occur, you need to stop taking the drug, consult a doctor to adjust the dosage or replace the dietary supplement.
Analogues
The Merz complex has a unique combination of components; it has no analogues in composition. But in pharmacies you can find many drugs that have a similar composition and a similar principle of action. Among the best substitutes for the German complex are:
