“Both our laboratory tests and the examinations ordered by PVD unanimously confirm – “NATEO D drops FORTE” are completely safe! The results of the test carried out by “EUROFINS” confirm that the amount of vitamin D3 cholecalciferol in the oil in the above-mentioned batch of the product complies with the labeling of this product, as well as with the regulatory enactments that determine the amount of the active substance in nutritional supplements,” emphasized Pēteris Zvaigzne, a member of the board of the pharmaceutical company “Sagitus”.

“Sun hormone, or vitamin D, is indispensable in maintaining the health of almost all organs – it is especially necessary for the normal development and growth of a child’s bones and teeth, for normal functioning of the immune system and maintenance of muscle function. At the same time, it is important to follow the instructions for use attached to the products with the indicated daily doses, in order to be sure of using the correct dose of vitamin D on a daily basis,” reminds Pēteris Zvaigzne.

As LETA reported on March 28 of this year, the Food and Veterinary Service (PVD) has authorized the distribution of the nutritional supplement “Nateo D pilieni Forte”, LETA was informed by representatives of the Food and Veterinary Service.

PVD representatives explain that the nutritional supplement “Nateo D pilieni Forte” produced by SIA “Sagitus” with the batch number 262301the distribution of which was previously suspended, is allowed because the results of laboratory tests have confirmed the safety of the product.

It has already been announced that on March 12 this year, the Ministry of Health reported that the service ordered the suspension of the distribution of the dietary supplement “Nateo D drops Forte”.

The relevant decision was taken by the Ministry of Health, because a report was received from the Children’s Clinical University Hospital about several cases of vitamin D intoxication in children, which were associated with the use of this vitamin.
