Is there a generic of Xaquil Xr?
Xaquil Xr is a brand-name prescription folate supplement. Folate is universally available in generic, over-the-counter dietary supplements. However, the folate used in Xaquil Xr is identical to the folate used in the body, so it can be immediately used by the body when absorbed. Many people have difficulty converting other folates, such as folic acid, into a useful version in the body. Check with your physician to determine what the best folate supplement is for your needs.
What is Xaquil Xr?
Xaquil Xr is a brand-name prescription folate (vitamin B9) supplement used to treat depression along with antidepressants. Xaquil Xr works by breaking down an amino acid, homocysteine, that, when levels are high, is linked to depression, dementia, and heart disease. The folate in Xaquil Xr is nearly identical to vitamin B9 in the body, so it is readily absorbed and used by the body.
Folate supplements alone do not improve depression. However, research shows that folate supplements may improve the effectiveness of antidepressants.
Xaquil Xr is taken as a 30 mg tablet once daily.
