Reviewed by Health Advisor Team
Short answer: NPRA (Malaysia's drug regulatory agency) classifies E-VITE as a food, not a drug. Bio Synergy Laboratories detected no heavy metals or harmful microbes, MyCO2 detected no preservatives, and Halvec Laboratories detected no porcine; it is JAKIM Halal certified. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, on medication or managing a long-term condition, ask your doctor first. If you are allergic to any ingredient, don't take it. If you react to it in any way, stop straight away.
