  • Title: Correction of vitamin E deficiency with fat-soluble versus water-miscible preparations of vitamin E in patients with cystic fibrosis.
    Author: Nasr SZ, O'Leary MH, Hillermeier C.
    Journal: J Pediatr; 1993 May; 122(5 Pt 1):810-2. PubMed ID: 8496768.
    Abstract:
    Of 27 patients with cystic fibrosis, 17 had levels of alpha-tocopherol more than 2 SD below the mean. Patients were randomly given either a water-miscible form of vitamin E or a fat-soluble form for 6 months. Either form was effective in achieving normal serum levels; the fat-soluble supplement has a significant cost advantage.
