The product shown is ARGICOT Sachet, marketed as a health supplement. The front of the pack identifies it as:
L-Arginine + DHA + Proanthocyanidin + Vitamin B6 + Cyanocobalamin + Folic Acid Granules
A manufacturer product listing/brochure provides additional composition information for ARGICOT: L-arginine 3 g + proanthocyanidin 75 mg per 6.5-g sachet. The brochure also identifies the product as sugar-free. (Mascot Biotech (India) Pvt. Ltd.)
This is the largest specifically quantified active ingredient.
L-arginine is an amino acid that can be converted to nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide contributes to relaxation of blood-vessel smooth muscle and therefore influences vascular blood flow.
The 3-g quantity per sachet is supported by the manufacturer's product information. (Mascot Biotech (India) Pvt. Ltd.)
Proanthocyanidins are polyphenolic compounds, commonly obtained from plant sources such as grape seed.
They have antioxidant activity and are included in some nutritional formulations intended to provide vascular/antioxidant support.
The manufacturer's brochure specifies 75 mg per sachet. (Mascot Biotech (India) Pvt. Ltd.)
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an omega-3 fatty acid.
It is particularly important for:
fetal brain development
fetal retinal/visual development
normal neurological development
The package clearly lists DHA, but I cannot verify its exact quantity from the photograph or the manufacturer information I found.
Vitamin B6 participates in:
amino-acid metabolism
neurotransmitter synthesis
normal nervous-system function
haemoglobin formation
The label identifies Vitamin B6, but its quantity isn't legible in the photograph.
Cyanocobalamin is a form of vitamin B12.
B12 is important for:
normal red-blood-cell production
DNA synthesis
neurological function
normal cellular metabolism
Again, the photograph confirms its presence but doesn't provide a readable dose.
Folic acid is vitamin B9.
It is particularly important before and during pregnancy because folate is required for DNA synthesis and rapid cell division, including development of the fetal neural tube.
The product's pregnancy-oriented packaging and ingredient profile are consistent with a maternal/pregnancy nutritional supplement, but the exact medical indication should be based on the prescribing clinician/product label rather than the image alone.
There is an interesting discrepancy worth pointing out.
The manufacturer's current online product listing gives:
L-Arginine 3 g + Proanthocyanidin 75 mg
for ARGICOT sachets, while the package shown in your photograph additionally lists DHA, vitamin B6, cyanocobalamin and folic acid. (Mascot Biotech (India) Pvt. Ltd.)
This could reflect a different formulation, updated packaging, or an expanded composition, so I would use the actual batch's back-panel composition to determine the precise amounts of all six ingredients.
ARGICOT = amino-acid + antioxidant + omega-3 + B-vitamins/folate supplement.
The most clearly quantified components are:
L-Arginine 3,000 mg + Proanthocyanidin 75 mg per sachet, with DHA + B6 + B12 + folic acid also shown on the package. (Mascot Biotech (India) Pvt. Ltd.)
If you upload the back side of the ARGICOT box, I can extract the exact amount of DHA, B6, B12 and folic acid per sachet and explain why each is included, particularly in relation to pregnancy.
