What else is MEGA CAPSULES called?
The same molecule, MULTIVITAMINS AND OTHER MINERALS INCL COMBINATIONS, is registered under other names elsewhere. Buyers and prescribers searching from outside Canada — or working from a foreign prescription or tender document — often know it by one of these:
| Name | Script | Registered in |
|---|---|---|
| VIDAYLIN SYRUP | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| CERNEVIT | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| ELEVIT PRONATAL | Latin | Bahrain |
| MIXAVIT SYRUP | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| MIXAVIT TAB | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| NEUROTRAT FORTE TAB. | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| VIDAYLIN DROPS | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
Names are taken from national medicine registers and published price lists. A product registered abroad is not authorized for sale in Canada unless it holds its own DIN; import is possible only through the routes Health Canada permits.

| Route | ORAL |
One DIN can cover more than one pack size, and the pack — not the DIN — is what gets priced, shipped and invoiced. Before an order line is unambiguous Nexara needs the strength, the pack size and the presentation.
What can be used instead?
Other Canadian products sharing ATC code A11AA03 MULTIVITAMINS AND OTHER MINERALS INCL COMBINATIONS. 0 of 541 DINs in this group are currently marketed — marketed products are listed first, because that is what can actually be bought. These tables describe supply, not clinical equivalence: substitution rests with the prescriber or pharmacist, and interchangeability is determined provincially.

How much does MULTIVITAMINS AND OTHER MINERALS INCL COMBINATIONS cost around the world?
MULTIVITAMINS AND OTHER MINERALS INCL COMBINATIONS is listed on 2 national price registers Nexara tracks, across 10 pack listings published on 2 different price bases. What each country publishes is set out below.
| Market | What that country publishes | Brands listed | Pack listings | As of |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saudi Arabia | public | 8 | 9 | 01 Sep 2026 |
| Bahrain | retail (max) | 1 | 1 | 01 Sep 2026 |
Why there are no figures here. These bases are not comparable. A Brazilian ex-factory ceiling, a Belgian pharmacy public price and a Japanese reimbursement rate answer three different questions, and none of them is what a product lands in Canada for. Putting them side by side would mislead in both directions, so Nexara publishes where a molecule is listed and on what basis, and quotes the delivered Canadian price per order.
Can this still be bought in Canada?
No. This Drug Identification Number is cancelled post market in Health Canada's Drug Product Database, so the product is no longer authorized for sale in Canada and Nexara does not supply it. This page is kept as a regulatory record.

Ordering questions
Who can buy this from Nexara?
Licensed entities only. Nexara holds Health Canada establishment licence DEL 3-002896-A and ships only to a licensed address.
Is there a minimum order?
Yes, set per product line and per pack multiple rather than on the order total, so you are never asked to buy a part-pack. The minimum for this line is confirmed with your quote.
What is the lead time?
Confirmed per order at quotation, and it depends on current stock position and whether the product is in shortage.
Can Nexara supply this for a clinical trial?
Yes — comparator and background-therapy supply, including sourcing from other markets where a Canadian pack will not satisfy the protocol. Clinical trial supply.
